Endovascular repair of thoracic aortic aneurysm
A thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a potentially life-threatening condition with structural weakness of the aortic wall, which can progress to arterial dilatation and rupture. Today, both an increasing awareness of vascular disease and the access to tomographic imaging facilitate the diagnosis of TAA even in an asymptomatic stage. The risk of rupture for untreated aneurysms beyond a diameter o...
متن کاملAnesthesia for Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Endovascular Stenting
He had undergone two coronary artery bypass graft surgeries 14 and 6 years prior to this presentation. In the emergency department, aspirin and intravenous beta blockers were initiated, his chest pain only partially resolved and a 12 lead EKG as well as cardiac enzyme tests were negative for acute myocardial injury. The next day, a dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) revealed evidence of r...
متن کاملA Pregnant Patient with Native Aortic Coarctation and Aneurysm.
Uncorrected coarctation is rare and is known to cause hypertension in adult patients. Retrospective observational studies showed hypertension and occasionally aortic dissection to be the principal risks during pregnancy after correction of aortic coarctation. We present a case of a patient with known hypertension, who presented at 32 weeks of gestation. A saccular aortic aneurysm of 4.5 × 8.8 c...
متن کاملMidterm results with thoracic endovascular aortic repair for chronic type B aortic dissection with associated aneurysm.
OBJECTIVE Thoracic endovascular aortic repair for chronic type B aortic dissection with associated descending thoracic aneurysm remains controversial. Concerns include potential ischemic complications due to branch vessel origin from the chronic false lumen and continued retrograde false lumen/aneurysm sac pressurization via fenestrations distal to implanted endografts. The present study examin...
متن کاملEndovascular Treatment of Late Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms after Surgical Repair of Congenital Aortic Coarctation in Childhood
BACKGROUND In some patients, local surgery-related complications are diagnosed many years after surgery for aortic coarctation. The purposes of this study were: (1) to systematically evaluate asymptomatic adults after Dacron patch repair in childhood, (2) to estimate the formation rate of secondary thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) and (3) to assess outcomes after intravascular treatment for TAA...
