Descending thoracic aortic dissection after covered stent for adult aortic coarctation: Technical or physiopathologic? [PDF]

Heliyon, 2023
Covered stent graft implantation is currently the most commonly used modality for the management of adult aortic coarctation. Although the risk of descending thoracic aortic dissection after covered stent graft implantation is low, sometimes it may cause

Risk Factors for Thoracic Aortic Dissection. [PDF]

Genes (Basel), 2022
Thoracic aortic aneurysms involving the root and/or the ascending aorta enlarge over time until an acute tear in the intimal layer leads to a highly fatal condition, an acute aortic dissection (AAD). These Stanford type A AADs, in which the tear occurs above the sinotubular junction, leading to the formation of a false lumen in the aortic wall that may

Detection of acute thoracic aortic dissection based on plain chest radiography and a residual neural network (Resnet) [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2022
Acute thoracic aortic dissection is a life-threatening disease, in which blood leaking from the damaged inner layer of the aorta causes dissection between the intimal and adventitial layers. The diagnosis of this disease is challenging.

Circulating fibrillin fragment concentrations in patients with and without aortic pathology

JVS - Vascular Science, 2022
Objective: Fragments of fibrillin-1 and fibrillin-2 will be detectable in the plasma of patients with aortic dissections and aneurysms. We sought to determine whether the plasma fibrillin fragment levels (PFFLs) differ between patients with thoracic ...

Complex thoracic aortic dissection treated by aorto-biiliac bypass and juxta-renal removal of aortic fenestrations

Radiology Case Reports, 2022
Thoracic aortic dissections are a life-threatening pathology. They occur when there is an intimal tear causing separation of the layers of the aorta. Thoracic aortic dissections can be acute or chronic and depending on the pattern of the dissection can ...

A reversed strategy for treating type B aortic dissection with open aortoiliac replacement prior to thoracic endovascular aortic repair

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2022
Thoracic endovascular stent grafting has been increasingly used in patients with type B aortic dissection (TBAD). We describe a patient with worsening abdominal pain and a rapidly enlarging common iliac artery aneurysm associated with TBAD.
