The modern surgical treatment of disorders of the thoracic aorta began in the early 1950s when Gross, Swan, Lam, and DeBakey and their associates1–4 reported successful treatment of coarctation and aneurysms of the descending thoracic aorta using segmental resection and replacement with several types of grafts. In 1956, Cooley and DeBakey5 reported the

Diseases of the thoracic aorta cause significant morbidity and mortality and can result in potentially catastrophic consequences. Conventional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) has been the gold standard for imaging for many years; however, this is associated with adverse effects and provides only limited information about vessel morphology. DSA is

Impact of Patient-Specific Inflow Velocity Profile on Hemodynamics of the Thoracic Aorta.
Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2018Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) provides a noninvasive method to functionally assess aortic hemodynamics. The thoracic aorta has an anatomically complex inlet comprising of the aortic valve and root, which is highly prone to different morphologies and

, 1996 The complete diagnostic evaluation of the thoracic aorta requires visualization of the lumen, aortic wall, and periaortic region in order to define intraluminal, mural, and extramural pathology. Imaging modalities must be capable of evaluating the entire extent of the aorta and the origin of the arch vessels in order to define the extent of any ...

The publication of this article is based upon the conviction that aortic rupture has generally been mishandled due to confusion concerning its diagnosis and prognosis. The anatomicopathology of our cases suggests the feasibility of rapid diagnosis of the condition and early operative interference.

Thoracic aorta – dilated or not?
Scandinavian Cardiovascular Journal, 2006Knowledge of normal aortic diameters is important in the assessment of aortic disease. The aim of this study was to determine normal thoracic aortic diameters.77 patients undergoing computed tomography of the thorax were studied. The diameter of the thoracic aorta was measured at three levels in the ascending aorta and at three levels in the descending

Practical Perioperative Transoesophageal Echocardiography, 2018
The first section of Chapter 12 details an approach to a systematic examination of the aortic root and thoracic aorta. The limitations (due to interposition of the large airways) and artefacts encountered when assessing the thoracic aorta are discussed ...

Catheter angiography, transthoracic and transoesophageal ultrasound and contrast-enhanced helical CT are generally accepted and well-established imaging modalities for detecting pathology of the thoracic aorta. The disadvantages of helical CT and X-ray angiography include the exposure of the patient to ionising radiation and the potential risk of ...
