The Na-K-2Cl cotransporter (NKCC1) is one of several transporters that have been linked to hypertension, and its inhibition reduces vascular smooth muscle tone and blood pressure. NKCC1 in the rat aorta is stimulated by vasoconstrictors and inhibited by nitrovasodilators, and this is linked to the contractile state of the smooth muscle. To determine whether blood pressure also regulates NKCC1, ...

Abstract Introduction Dissection and aneurysms of the aorta are pathologies that greatly compromise prognosis patients. By examining these in area under consideration, knowing they also subject epiacortic arterial structures to this dilation, an endovascular solution was sought would reduce long risky times surgery. A hybrid operation is implemented Thoraflex™ implant. During cardiac surgery, r...

Floating aortic arch thrombi —blood clots forming in an aorta without aneurysms or atherosclerosis —in a normal are exceedingly rare. The etiology is unknown, and there no guidelines for appropriate treatment strategies. We report case of floating thrombosis patient coagulopathy that was treated surgically. As the mass could not be identified preoperatively as tumor thrombus, synthetic graft re...

Biomechanical properties of infantile aorta in vitro in cases of different standard anastomoses: end-to-end (ETE), extended anastomosis end-to-end (EETE) and subclavian flap aortoplasty (SFA) used for surgical correction of coarctation were analyzed to detect the influence of the method on the biomechanics of infantile aorta and possible changes in haemodinamics. 10 specimens of native aorta, 3...

The aorta is the most critical blood vessel in our body, and aortic valve between left ventricle (LV) controls flow from heart to whole body. If malfunctions, does not correctly, enough nutrition conveyed all over There so much research on LV aorta; however, of previous works dealt with simplified cylindrical models model. little study simulated pressure change using a real model generated medi...

The article presents a clinical case of nodular uterine leiomyoma giant size on the background type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic hypertension and obesity with classic picture metabolic syndrome development severe vascular pathology steno-occlusive atherosclerotic lesions abdominal aorta bifurcation (Lerich’s syndrome) acute circulatory disorders in left lower extremity gangrene toes foot. patie...

Robinson, W. M., McMillan, I. K. R., and Johnson, A. M. (1973). Thorax, 529-532. Saccular aneurysm caused by bacterial endocarditis in a syphilitic aorta. The rapid development of a saccular aneurysm during successfully treated bacterial endocarditis, in an ascending aorta previously affected by syphilis which had been treated with adequate chemotherapy 15 years previously, is described. Althou...

This case highlights an open retroperitoneal approach to explant embolized left atrial appendage occlusion device in the visceral aorta. Endovascular retrieval of was deemed be inferior alternative given significant mural thrombus that extended toward superior mesenteric artery and celiac from device, as demonstrated on computed tomography angiogram, associated risk embolizing vessels or lower ...

Here we report a case of technological innovation: the use magnetic resonance imaging to determine surgical strategy.
 is 47-year-old man who underwent an and subsequent treatment aortic aneurysm. Unlike echocardiography, enabled us view entire thoracic aorta. computer tomography, detect changes in wall accurately. Thus, this case, allowed distal resection edge. The patient`s postoperative...
