Biomechanical and biochemical properties of the thoracic aorta in warmblood horses, Friesian horses, and Friesians with aortic rupture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Thoracic aortic rupture and aortopulmonary fistulation are rare conditions in horses. It mainly affects Friesian horses. Intrinsic differences in biomechanical properties of the aortic wall might predispose this breed.

Thyroid lesions of neuroendocrine origin? Thinking of a “polka‐dotted” zebra! Case series from three Italian referral centers and review of the literature

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Thyroid metastases from neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) should be considered in case of suspicious thyroid nodules in patients with a positive medical history of NEN, mainly of thoracic origin, even after many years from the initial diagnosis. The differential diagnosis from primary intrathyroidal NEN is challenging.

Fibulin-4 is essential for maintaining arterial wall integrity in conduit but not muscular arteries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in fibulin-4 (FBLN4) lead to autosomal recessive cutis laxa type 1B (ARCL1B), a multisystem disorder characterized by significant cardiovascular abnormalities, including abnormal elastin assembly, arterial ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

Consecutive failing proximal landing zones

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
We report the case of a 77-year-old man who presented with successive aortic aneurysms during a 12-year period. He was first treated in 2006 for an abdominal aortic aneurysm with a bifurcated endograft, then in 2016 for a tender type IV thoracoabdominal ...

Challenging endovascular treatment of a thoracic saccular aneurysm in extensive coral reef aorta

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2022
Coral reef aorta (CRA) is characterized by heavily calcified obstructive lesions in the aorta. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is an established, less invasive procedure for aortic diseases; however, aortic occlusive diseases are commonly ...

Aortic and cardiovascular remodelling after thoracic endovascular aortic repair for blunt traumatic aortic injury in younger patients: A narrative review of physiological and clinical outcomes

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Blunt traumatic aortic injury (BTAI) is severe, often fatal in younger populations due to high‐energy deceleration mechanisms. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has revolutionised BTAI treatment, surpassing the previously standard open surgical repair in mortality and complication rates.

Inhibition of MAPK-Erk pathway in vivo attenuates aortic valve disease processes in Emilin1-deficient mouse model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Aortic valve disease (AVD) is a common condition with a progressive natural history, and presently, there are no pharmacologic treatment strategies. Elastic fiber fragmentation (EFF) is a hallmark of AVD, and increasing evidence implicates developmental ...
