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

Circulating fibrillin fragment concentrations in patients with and without aortic pathology
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 ...

Relationship of vascular pathology, demographic and radio-anatomical features in aortic dissections detected by multidetector CT [PDF]
Aim: Aortic dissection is a cardiovascular disease with low incidence but high mortality. The aim of our study is to evaluate the demographic, vascular pathologic and radio-anatomic features of aortic dissection and find out the relationship of these ...
