BACKGROUND The risk of aortic complications associated with pregnancy in women with Marfan syndrome (MFS) is not fully understood. METHODS AND RESULTS MFS women participating in the large National Registry of Genetically Triggered Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms and Cardiovascular Conditions (GenTAC) were evaluated. Among 184 women with MFS in whom pregnancy information was available, 94 (51%) had ...
Aortic dissection is a relatively rare yet often fatal condition. Early recognition and treatment are crucial for survival. While the majority of patients who present with aortic dissection are older than 50 years of age and have a history of hypertension, younger patients with connective tissue disease, bicuspid aortic valves, and a family history of aortic dissection are also at an increased ...
We report a case of a type A aortic dissection with extension into the main pulmonary artery through a sinus of Valsalva fistula. Echocardiography and computed tomographic angiography of the chest were performed and bicuspid aortic valve, hemopericardium, and dilatation of the aortic root were found. A Stanford type A dissection was seen, extending to the distal transverse thoracic aorta, and t...
The objective of this study was to determine the morbidity and mortality of patients with acute thoracic aortic dissections who present primarily with abdominal pain. Nine hundred ninety-two patients (mean age, 62.1 years +/- 14.1; 68% male) encountered from 1996 to 2001 with acute thoracic aortic dissections from the International Registry of acute Aortic Dissection were studied. Patient demog...
Acute aortic dissection is typically seen in the middle aged and elderly population, the majority of the cases are related to systemic hypertension and atherogenic process. In contrast, aortic dissection-related deaths in the young are rare and are mainly associated with genetically based disorders and congenital cardiac anomalies. One of the most recognized congenital risk factors that predisp...
OBJECTIVES To assess the value of transoesophageal echocardiography in patients with Marfan syndrome particularly those with suspected aortic pathology or where conventional transthoracic imaging was suboptimal. DESIGN AND PATIENTS Eleven patients with Marfan syndrome. Seven patients were studied because of suspected aortic dissection and four because of inadequate transthoracic imaging. IN...
Bicuspid aortic valve is the most prevalent cardiac valvular malformation. It is associated with a high rate of long-term morbidity including development of calcific aortic valve disease, aortic regurgitation and concomitant thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection. Recently, basic and translational studies have identified some key processes involved in the development of bicuspid aortic valve a...
acute dissection or the ascending aorta requires immediate surgical intervention. without surgical treatment ii:i,) of the patients will die every hour. in this study we report the result ofoperations on patients with stanford type a aortic dissection. from 1997 to 2003. 26 patients (16 males, 10 females) aged 30 to 71 years (mean age 4~.9 :i: 2.3 years) underwent surgical treatment. in all of ...
Aortic dissection, characterized by separation of the layers of the aortic wall, poses a significant challenge for clinicians. While type A aortic dissection patients are normally managed using surgical treatment, optimal treatment strategy for type B aortic dissection remains controversial and requires further evaluation. Although aortic diameter measured by CT angiography has been clinically ...
Aortic dissection is a rare life-threatening condition that typically presents with acute onset of severe chest, abdominal, or back pain. Some patients might present with atypical symptoms and findings, such as neurological syndromes, making it difficult to make the diagnosis. Here, we report a case of a painless acute aortic rupture over an already existing Stanford type A chronic aortic disse...
