primary cardiac tumors are quite rare, especially in the pediatric age group, and their atypical presentations often prevent a timely diagnosis. most primary cardiac tumors in the pediatric age group are benign. fibromas are generally reported as the second most common primary cardiac tumors in the pediatric age group. these neoplasms are often intramural and involve the left ventricular free w...

aortic dissection occurs when a tear develops in the wall of the aorta, which is rare in the young population. this fatal disorder is hard to diagnose, especially in young patients. we present the case of aortic dissection in a 15-year-old boy referred to the emergency department of yazd university of medical sciences in november 2015. the patient presented to our department with sudden acute c...

introduction aortic surgery has made much progress recently. yet the combination of aortic surgery and coronary artery bypass grafting has remained a major issue for the surgeons. patient and observation herein, we present a case of severe aortic insufficiency with aortic aneurysm concomitant with single coronary artery disease on the right coronary artery. the patient underwent bentall procedu...

We have developed a method for constructing the geometry of morphologically realistic human aorta, including aortic root (Valsalva sinus), thoracic arch with branches, abdominal aorta bifurcation vessels. The creation three-dimensional model is necessary when planning surgical interventions, performing numerical modeling blood flow in aorta. anatomical structure differs different patients, espe...

conclusions troxerutin may reduce the vascular complications and tissue injuries induced by chronic diabetes in rat aorta through increasing the activity of tissue antioxidant system and reducing the level of lipid peroxidation. materials and methods male wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups (n = 8/each): control, control plus troxerutin, diabetic and diabetic plus troxerutin. dia...

background multiple classifications can be used to define the magnitude of aortic injury. the vancouver classification (vc) is a new and simplified computed tomography-based blunt aortic injury (bai) grading system correlating with clinical outcomes. objectives the objectives of this study are: 1) to describe the severity of aortic injury in a center with a predominantly surgical approach to ba...
