Open, hybrid, and endovascular repair of recoarctation, aneurysm, and pseudoaneurysm after aortic coarctation repairCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques
Objective: After aortic coarctation repair, patients may develop peri-anastomotic aneurysms or recoarctation requiring reintervention. We describe the spectrum of late coarctation repair–associated complications, repair strategies, and outcomes. Methods:

Thoracic aorta calcification but not inflammation is associated with increased cardiovascular disease risk: results of the CAMONA study

European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2016
PurposeArterial inflammation and vascular calcification are regarded as early prognostic markers of cardiovascular disease (CVD). In this study we investigated the relationship between CVD risk and arterial inflammation (18F-FDG PET/CT imaging), vascular
