Ascending aorta reinterventions [PDF]

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2017
Ascending aorta reinterventions present a challenge for surgeons as the technical difficulties of the procedure and the complex strategic approach can complicate successful treatment. These patients should be treated by surgical teams with ample experience in aortic diseases as they can be at high risk of mortality.

Aortic valve replacement in a bicuspid aortic valve patient followed by reoperation for ascending aorta rupture: a case report [PDF]

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the most common congenital cardiac anomaly, predisposes individuals to aortic stenosis and regurgitation due to valve degeneration.

Intraluminal Ascending Aorta Fibroma [PDF]

Journal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2011
Primary cardiac tumors are quite rare, especially in the pediatric age group, and their atypical presentations often prevent a timely diagnosis. Most primary cardiac tumors in the pediatric age group are benign.

Paucicellular Fibroma of the Ascending Aorta [PDF]

AORTA, 2021
AbstractPrimary tumors of the aorta are extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, herein, we present the first case in the literature of a paucicellular fibroma originating from the aortic wall.

The Relationship between Arterial Elasticity Parameters of Ascending Aorta, Abdominal Aorta and Carotid Arteries with Carotid Intima Media Thickness in Children with Bicuspid Aortic Valve

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2022
Background: Bicuspid aortic valve is a congenital cardiac malformation that affects not only the valve and ascending aorta but also the abdominal aorta and large central arteries like carotid arteries by damaging the elasticity of the vessel resulting in

Heritability of haemodynamics in the ascending aorta [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2020
AbstractBlood flow in the vasculature can be characterised by dimensionless numbers commonly used to define the level of instabilities in the flow, for example the Reynolds number, Re. Haemodynamics play a key role in cardiovascular disease (CVD) progression. Genetic studies have identified mechanosensitive genes with causal roles in CVD.

The predictive value of C-reactive protein to albümin ratio for ascending aort progression in patients with ascending aortic diameter of 40–50 mm

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2022
We aimed to investigate the ability of the C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) to predict ascending aorta progression in patients with 40–50 mm diameter of ascending aortic dilatation.

Large mural thrombus in the non-aneurysmal and non-atherosclerotic ascending aorta: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Background The mural thrombus in the ascending aorta is rare, most of which are associated with aneurysm or atherosclerotic lesions, with high risks of causing catastrophic thrombotic events. A mural thrombus in the non-aneurysmal and non-atherosclerotic

Isolated ascending aorta dilatation is associated with increased risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Background Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is an asymptomatic condition characterized by progressive dilatation of the aorta. The purpose of this study is to identify important 2D-TTE aortic indices associated with AAA as predictive tools for undiagnosed
