Epithelioid hemangioma of the ascending aorta: A rare case

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2022
Cardiac epithelioid hemangioma is extremely rare. Currently, there are only a few described cases of intraluminal hemangiomas of the aorta and the aortic valve and no described cases with extraluminal epithelioid hemangiomas of the ascending aorta.

Mobile Thrombus in the Ascending Aorta

Annals of Vascular Diseases, 2020
A 65-year-old male who presented with dizziness, dysarthria, and disability of his left hand was admitted to our hospital. Magnetic resonance imaging of the head revealed cerebral infarction and enhanced computed tomography revealed a suspicious thrombus in the ascending aorta. He did not have a coagulation disorder.

Giant aneurysm of the ascending aorta [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2011
An ascending aortic aneurysm is a rare entity. The authors encountered an 85-year-old female patient with an uncomplicated ascending aortic aneurysm measuring 9 cm in diameter. She underwent an urgent operation involving replacement of the ascending aorta.

Re‐Purposing Sapropterin (Kuvan) for ACTA2‐Related Multisystemic Smooth Muscle Dysfunction Syndrome: A Translational Mechanistic and First‐In‐Human Therapeutic Report

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome (MSMDS) is an ultra‐rare, ACTA2‐related disorder characterized by severe cerebrovascular disease, aortic aneurysms, and smooth muscle dysfunction. Using molecular dynamics simulations and in silico drug screening, we identified that sapropterin dihydrochloride (Kuvan) is a candidate capable of ...

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

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.

Fluid–structure interaction simulations outperform computational fluid dynamics in the description of thoracic aorta haemodynamics and in the differentiation of progressive dilation in Marfan syndrome patients [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2020
Abnormal fluid dynamics at the ascending aorta may be at the origin of aortic aneurysms. This study was aimed at comparing the performance of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and fluid–structure interaction (FSI) simulations against four-dimensional ...

Syphilitic aneurysm of the ascending aorta [PDF]

Interactive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2011
Syphilitic aortic aneurysm is a rare occurrence in the antibiotic era, making the diagnose assumption even more infrequent. Nonetheless, this pathology can appear and should be suspected in patients with aortic aneurysm. We report a case of a 57-year old patient who presents with neurosyphilis and, in the following study, a large ascending aorta ...

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.
