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.

Catching a floating thrombus; a case report on the treatment of a large thrombus in the ascending aorta

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Background The ascending aorta is an uncommon site for non-infective thrombus. In non-aneurysmal and non-atherosclerotic vessels this condition becomes extremely rare, while it represents a source of potential cerebral and peripheral embolic events ...

Floating thrombus in the ascending aorta

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2016
A 61-year-old male was admitted with lower abdominal pain. A CT scan showed a thrombus in the ascending aorta, and systemic emboli to the gallbladder, superior mesenteric artery, and both renal arteries (Figure 1).

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.
