Cardiac recovery and outcome of neonates and infants presenting with severe aortic coarctation and depressed cardiac function

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2018
Objectives: Coarctation of the aorta represents 5–8% of all congenital heart diseases. Children with severe coarctation of the aorta may present with significant depression of myocardial function.

Coarctation of the abdominal aorta [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1988
Coarctation of the abdominal aorta remains a surgically treatable cause of hypertension in children and young adults. Average age of the patients is 21 years at the time of diagnosis and a second peak in the fourth to fifth decade. If left untreated, most patients die as a result of complications from untreated hypertension by the age of 35 years ...

Hodge Decomposition of the wall shear stress vector fields characterizing biological flows [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
A discrete boundary-sensitive Hodge decomposition is proposed as a central tool for the analysis of wall shear stress (WSS) vector fields in aortic blood flows. The method is based on novel results for the smooth and discrete Hodge-Morrey-Friedrichs decomposition on manifolds with boundary and subdivides the WSS vector field into five components ...

Design and Development of a Web-based Tool for Inpainting of Dissected Aortae in Angiography Images [PDF]

The 24th Central European Seminar on Computer Graphics (CESCG), pp. 1-8, May. 2020, 2020
Medical imaging is an important tool for the diagnosis and the evaluation of an aortic dissection (AD); a serious condition of the aorta, which could lead to a life-threatening aortic rupture. AD patients need life-long medical monitoring of the aortic enlargement and of the disease progression, subsequent to the diagnosis of the aortic dissection ...

Closure of a Late‐Onset Iatrogenic Left Ventricular Pseudoaneurysm Caused by Erosion of an Apical Muscular VSD Device

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report the case of a 3‐year‐old asymptomatic girl (12 kg, 96 cm) who was diagnosed with a large iatrogenic left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (LVP) on follow‐up ultrasound, 14 months after apical muscular ventricular septal defect (VSD) closure with a 10 mm Amplatzer Muscular VSD occluder (Abbott, USA) due to device erosion.

Refractory heart failure due to acquired aortic coarctation after total arch replacement: find the right antidote!

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract A 31‐year‐old male presented with unexplainable symptoms of heart failure including recurrent fatigue and orthopnoea after total arch replacement for type A aortic dissection 2 months ago. Computed tomography angiography detected a severe intra‐luminal stenosis, and we successfully implanted a balloon‐expandable stent to dilate the stenosis ...

Improvement of the splanchnic blood flow and hepatic vein oxygenation following revascularization in patients with chronic mesenteric ischaemia

Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, Volume 43, Issue 1, Page 33-39, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Objectives Chronic mesenteric ischaemia (CMI) is an underdiagnosed but severe condition. Access to functional testing is often limited and the diagnosis is usually based primarily on symptoms and imaging. One of the functional tests available is measurement of the splanchnic blood flow (SBF).

Relaxin mimetic in pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease: Design and rationale of Re‐PHIRE

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Despite receiving guideline‐directed medical heart failure (HF) therapy, patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease (PH‐LHD) experience higher mortality and hospitalization rates than the general HF population.
