Giant Aortic Aneurysm in Refractory Behçet’s Disease Shrank with Tocilizumab Treatment: A Case Report

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
Behçet disease (BD) is characterized by recurrent oral and genital ulcers, skin lesions, and vascular involvement. Giant aortic aneurysm, a life‐threatening complication of BD, often proves refractory to conventional therapies. Here, we present the case of a 71‐year‐old man with a 40‐year history of BD complicated by a giant aortic aneurysm, which was ...

Outcomes of endovascular repair for blunt thoracic aortic injury [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2013
Consistent long-term follow-up data of thoracic endovascular repair (TEVAR) for acute blunt thoracic aortic injury (BTAI) are largely absent at this time. The late outcomes of TEVAR for BTAI are the focus of this study to evaluate the durability of this type of repair.The records of 46 consecutive cases of TEVAR for BTAI from November 2000 to August ...

CCDC80 Protects against Aortic Dissection and Rupture by Maintaining the Contractile Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotype

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 26, July 10, 2025.
Aortic dissection (AD) is accompanied by a decrease in CCDC80 in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). CCDC80 can interact with JAK2, and VSMC‐specific CCDC80 deficiency accelerates the progression of AD by activating the JAK2/STAT3 pathway involved in regulating the phenotype switching and function of VSMCs.

Impact of Elevated Preprocedural Left Ventricular Filling Pressure on Prognosis of Mild Paravalvular Regurgitation Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 242-249, July 1, 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Paravalvular regurgitation (PVR) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a complication linked to poor outcomes. The prognostic impact of mild PVR, particularly in patients with elevated preprocedural left ventricular (LV) filling pressure, remains uncertain.
