Pedicled versus skeletonized internal thoracic artery grafts : a randomized trial

, 2021
OBJECTIVE: Concerns have been raised regarding whether skeletonization of the internal thoracic artery could damage the graft and thereby reduces its patency.

Increased Disarray of Extracellular Matrix Collagen‐I Fiber Network and Compromised Biomechanics in Aortae From Marfan‐Syndrome Mice Assessed Through Combined Opto‐Biomechatronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Combined structure‐function assessment in aortic rings from Marfan mice using MechaMorph Opto‐Biomechatronics technology relates increased elasticity (stiffness) and dynamic viscosity and less ordered extracellular matrix 3D‐structure (collagen) as potential causes for impaired Windkessel function and compromised haemodynamics in Marfan's syndrome ...

A Hybrid Approach to Right-sided Aortic Arch Aneurysm Using Bilateral Carotid to Subclavian Bypass with a Customized Fenestrated Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair Device

The Arab Journal of Interventional Radiology, 2018
We present a hybrid approach to the management of an aortic aneurysm in a right-sided aortic arch with aberrant left subclavian artery and associated Kommerell’s diverticulum. The aneurysm extended from the origin of the left common carotid artery to the

Comparison of the effect of monopolar and bipolar cauterization on skeletonized, dissected internal thoracic arteries [PDF]

, 1995
The internal thoracic artery is preferable to the saphenous vein for use as a conduit for coronary artery bypass. More extensive use is possible if this artery is mobilized in a skeletonized form to provide greater length.

Endowing Flexibility of Alveolar Type II Cells to Recapitulate Development From Lung Bud to Alveoli

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Adult human alveolar type 2 cells are chemically reprogrammed into expandable alveolar progenitor‐like cells that acquire bud tip‐like features during expansion and form organoids that mature into alveolar‐like structures. These organoids model influenza A virus infection and innate immune responses in vitro, while transplanted cells engraft ...

Endovascular Stent Grafting for Aortic Arch Aneurysm in Aortoiliac Occlusive Disease following Aortic Arch Debranching and Aortobifemoral Reconstruction

Case Reports in Medicine, 2017
Treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms constitutes high mortality and morbidity rates despite improvements in surgery, anesthesia, and technology. Endovascular stent grafting may be an alternative therapy with lower risks when compared with conventional ...

Ilexoside K Ameliorates Atherosclerosis by Suppressing CD72hi Macrophages and Blocking CXCL12–CXCR4 Axis to Inhibit Endothelial Pyroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CD72hi macrophages drive endothelial pyroptosis and accelerate atherosclerosis through CXCL12–CXCR4‐mediated immune–vascular crosstalk. Ilexoside K suppresses this pathogenic communication by modulating CXCR4‐dependent endothelial responses, reducing inflammation and plaque progression. These findings reveal a macrophage–endothelial regulatory axis and

3D Image Fusion to Localise Intercostal Arteries During TEVAR

EJVES Short Reports, 2017
Purpose: Preservation of intercostal arteries during thoracic aortic procedures reduces the risk of post-operative paraparesis. The origins of the intercostal arteries are visible on pre-operative computed tomography angiography (CTA), but rarely on ...
