Infrarenal aortic diameter predicts all-cause mortality.
OBJECTIVE To assess the relationship between infrarenal aortic diameter and subsequent all-cause mortality in men aged 65 years or older. METHODS AND RESULTS Aortic diameter was measured using ultrasound in 12 203 men aged 65 to 83 years as part of a trial of screening for abdominal aortic aneurysms. A range of cardiovascular risk factors was also documented. Mortality over the next 3 to 7 ye...
متن کاملAcquired Infrarenal Abdominal Aortic Coarctation: Treatment with Percutaneous Self Expandable Stent
Abdominal aortic coarctation is an extremely rare vascular pathology. Its etiology can be congenital or acquired. Here we present a case of acquired infrarenal abdominal coarctation in a 66-year-old woman who complained of low back and legs pain. She had no signs of resting lower limb ischemia, with diminished distal pulses and normal blood pressure in upper and lower extremities. Magnetic reso...
متن کاملEndovascular Treatment of Infrarenal Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm with Short and Angulated Neck in High-Risk Patient
Endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is an established alternative to open repair. However lifelong surveillance is still required to monitor endograft function and signal the need for secondary interventions (Hobo and Buth 2006). Aortic morphology, especially related to the proximal neck, often complicates the procedure or increases the risk for late device-related compli...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of elderly patients with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm
Background The traditional surgical treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is now well codified in vascular surgery with a perioperative mortality rate that has gradually declining in recent years. The introduction of endovascular techniques has led the indications for surgery to be reviewed. The results of surgery in patients over eighty are fairly well defined: it is encoded that age a...
متن کاملAtypical infrarenal aortic coarctation
A 56-year-old man presented with progressive lower extremity claudication, rest and night pain, and severe dyspnea on exertion. Past history included chronic back pain, hypertension, coronary artery disease, and obstructive sleep apnea. Cardiac catheterization was performed and showed a diminutive narrow aorta originating at the renal level and extending distally in the midline (A-D). This was ...
