It often starts with sudden, sharp chest pain that feels unlike anything you have experienced before. It might spread to your ...

The purpose of the study was to observe the elastic properties of the aorta in normal fetuses by M-mode echocardiography.This was a prospective cross-sectional study performed in 402 normal fetuses ...

This means the proximal ascending aorta, around 35–50 mm from the aortic annulus, must be ≤40 mm in diameter for the smaller 26-mm device and ≤43 mm for the larger 29-mm device. The distal ...

Abstract: Objective: Computational modelling of ascending thoracic aortic aneurysms (ATAA) typically assumes zerodisplacement at the model's inlet. In this study we incorporated different types of ...

Bicuspid aortic valves are associated with ascending aortic pathology, but their impact on long‐term outcomes, including aortic growth and adverse events, remains unclear. This prospective ...

Divided into four sections—the aortic root, ascending aorta, aortic arch, and descending aorta—it ensures blood reaches areas like the arms, legs, brain, and abdominal organs. Signs of a problem with ...
