Background Cardiogenic shock (CS) induced by severe aortic stenosis (AS) is a life-threatening condition with high mortality. Despite advancements in emergency interventions, the optimal treatment ...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence and durability of additional proximal cuffs during endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). A retrospective review of 90 EVAR ...

The left subclavian artery receives oxygenated blood from the aortic arch (the top portion of the largest artery in the body that carries blood away from the heart). The right subclavian artery ...

Figure 1 Posteroanterior and Lateral Films of the Chest, Demonstrating an Ascending Aortic ... beginning just distal to the aortic valve and ending just proximal to the innominate artery.

Going into the season, the Rams defensive line and pass rush was regarded as a major question mark. The retirement of future Hall of Famer Aaron Donald left a humongous hole in a unit that had to ...

Additionally, it has eliminated the need to orient the device in the aorta owing in part to its enhanced flexibility. The Valiant stent graft has a modified proximal FreeFlo configuration with ...

THE transventricular and transaortic approaches, with visualization of the valve, to correct calcareous aortic stenosis were logical and progressive strides in the development of the surgical ...

the aortic root was addressed based on the extent of aortic dissection involvement. Once the 4-branch prosthetic graft was anastomosed to the proximal ascending aorta, a perfusion tube was inserted ...

Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) of the proximal thoracic aorta are derived from second heart field (SHF) and cardiac neural crest lineages. Recent studies, both in vitro and in vivo, have implied relevance ...
