Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms

Acta Chirurgica Belgica, 2006
Remarkable progress has been made in the surgical treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. The decline in mortality and complication rates can be attributed to improvements in perioperative care and in surgical technique, particularly the adoption of adjunct distal aortic perfusion and cerebrospinal fluid drainage.

PKM2 Activator TEPP-46 Attenuates Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm and Dissection by Inhibiting NLRP3 Inflammasome-Mediated IL-1β Secretion

Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2020
Background: The development of thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (TAAD) is mediated by inflammasome activation, which exacerbates the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and reactive oxygen species

Inflammation in thoracic aortic aneurysms

Herz, 2019
Mutations in extracellular matrix and smooth muscle cell contractile proteins predispose to thoracic aortic aneurysms in Marfan syndrome (MFS) and related disorders. These genetic alterations lead to a compromised extracellular matrix-smooth muscle cell contractile unit.

Thoracic aortic aneurysm gene dictionary

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2020
Thoracic aortic aneurysm is typically clinically silent, with a natural history of progressive enlargement until a potentially lethal complication such as rupture or dissection occurs.

Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms

The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1987
The historical development of knowledge of aneurysms is surveyed, particularly of those of thoracic aorta. There follows detailed considerations of the structure and structural properties of the aorta and its supports ("bobbins"). The degenerations of the aorta is described and discussed in considering the various basic types of aneurysm.

Genetics of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms

Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2012
Understanding of the genetics of thoracic aortic aneurysm is increasing rapidly, due to discovery of novel genes, better definition of the phenotypes associated with mutations in a given gene and better understanding of the pathophysiology. Beyond Marfan syndrome, usually related to mutation in FBN1, mutations have been reported in TGFBR1, TGFBR2 ...

Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms

The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 2005
Thoracic aortic aneurysm with dissection is the most common fatal condition involving the aorta. The prevalence of aortic aneurysms appears to be increasing, which may reflect improvements in imaging techniques as well as increased clinical awareness of the condition.

Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]

open access: possibleEchocardiography, 1996
This article describes the evolving role of echocardiography for the detection and evaluation of thoracic aortic aneurysms. A brief summary of the clinical, anatomical, and pathological features of the etiologic categories of thoracic aneurysms is presented.

Dissecting Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms

Archives of Surgery, 1972
In 16 years, 33 operations were performed on 32 patients out of a total of 55 with dissecting thoracic aneurysms. The overall mortality was 64%. This was much higher (88%) for type 1 cases (tear near the aortic valve and dissection extending beyond the descending aorta) than for type 2 (tear and dissection confined to ascending aorta) or for type 3 ...

Familial thoracic aortic aneurysms

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2014
A lot of new data have been obtained in familial thoracic aortic aneurysms, including description of new entities and better understanding of pathophysiology. The aim of this review is to put them in perspective.The new data have been collected, put together, and allowed a new classification scheme to be proposed by the Montalcino Aortic Consortium on ...
