Arteriosclerotic aneurysms of the coronary arteries
The majority of aneurysms of the coronary arteries are due to arteriosclerosis. Fusiform aneurysms are common. Because the natural history of these aneurysms and their role in the pathogenesis of myocardial infarction are not clear, neither excision nor repair is justified. Bypass surgery is indicated if proximal obstruction is present.

Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading global cause of death, driven by complex mechanisms, in which chronic inflammation plays a central role. Inflammatory pathways contribute to all stages of CVD, from endothelial dysfunction and plaque formation to erosion, rupture and myocardial injury.

ABSTRACT Background Back‐up arteriovenous fistula (bAVF) is used in peritoneal dialysis (PD) to avoid haemodialysis transfer via a central venous catheter (CVC). However, no previous study examined mortality or complications associated with bAVF creation.

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

IntroductionCoronary aneurysms are rare; therefore, treatment strategies for coronary lesions with aneurysms remain elusive. We describe three cases of coronary artery lesions with aneurysms in patients treated with drug-coated balloons (DCBs).Case ...

Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms
Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...
