BACKGROUND The natural history of aortic diseases in patients with TGFBR1 or TGFBR2 mutations reported by different investigators has varied greatly. In particular, the current recommendations for the timing of surgical repair of the aortic root aneurysms may be overly aggressive. METHODS AND RESULTS The Montalcino Aortic Consortium, which includes 15 centers worldwide that specialize in heri...
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in most Western societies and is increasing steadily in many developing countries. Aortic diseases constitute an emerging share of the burden. New diagnostic imaging modalities, longer life expectancy in general, longer exposure to elevated blood pressure, and the proliferation of modern noninvasive imaging modalities have all contributed to ...

Aortic dissection is the most devastating complication of thoracic aortic disease. In the more than 250 years since thoracic aortic dissection was first described, much has been learned about diseases of the thoracic aorta. In this review, we describe normal thoracic aortic size; risk factors for dissection, including genetic and inflammatory conditions; the underpinnings of genetic diseases as...
BACKGROUND In order to help diagnose and deal with the fetal aortic diseases in time, we retrospectively reviewed 8 patients who presented with cauda equina syndrome (CES) but actually suffered from low spinal nerve ischemia due to aortic diseases. MATERIAL AND METHODS 8 patients were initially diagnosed as CES. 7 patients were confirmed with aortic diseases. 1 patient was confirmed with aort...
In the current era of expanding catheter-based and complex repair procedures to treat aortic valve (AV) diseases, growing consideration is being given to understanding the functional anatomy of the AV complex. Echocardiography is the primary imaging modality to assess and follow-up AV diseases, and the recent three-dimensional (3D) capabilities allow clinicians to appreciate the functional comp...
BACKGROUND The term "acute aortic syndrome" (AAS) encompasses a spectrum of life-threatening conditions characterized by acute aortic pain. AAS traditionally embraces three abnormalities including classic aortic dissection, intramural haematoma, and penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer. Although the underlying etiologies and conditions predisposing to AAS are diverse, the clinical features are ind...
PURPOSE The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the short- to mid-term results of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) in Wonkwang University School of Medicine & Hospital. METHODS Between February 2009 and May 2011, 8 consecutive patients had undergone endovascular stent-grafting for thoracic aortic diseases. Five patients were treated for traumatic thoracic aortic inj...
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease (IgG4-RD), in general, depends on serum IgG4 concentrations and histopathological findings; therefore, diagnosis of IgG4-RD in cardiovascular organs/tissues is often difficult owing to the risk of tissue sampling. METHODS Prevalence of IgG4-positive lymphoplasmacytic infiltration in 103 consecutive cardiovascular surgical sa...
