A modern hospital information system should offer intelligent choices when the user wants to select an anatomical location. For the measurement of intra-arterial blood pressure, for example, the primary choice should be like ABDOMINAL AORTA, RENAL ARTERY, THORACIC AORTA .... And only when the user chooses RENAL ARTERY an additional choice of LEFT/RIGHT is shown – not when he chooses ABDOMINAL A...

Background. Classically, each kidney is supplied by a single renal artery originating from abdominal aorta. The present study aimed at its variations and their embryological and clinical correlation. Material and Methods. The formalin-fixed thirty-seven cadavers from north India constituted the material for the study. During routine abdominal dissection conducted for medical undergraduates at t...

BACKGROUND In patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS), brachial pulse pressure (PP) has been recognized as a risk factor for aortic dilatation, leading to aortic dissection, the main cause of premature death. However, the relationships between aortic PP, aortic stiffness, and aortic root dilation have not been investigated. Our main objective was to determine whether central PP, which takes into ac...

OBJECTIVE To assess the histological changes of the aorta, the renal arteries and the renal parenchyma in swine, induced by a metalic uncovered stent implanted in transrenal position in the abdominal aorta. METHODS Ten pigs with a mean weight of 86.6 kg and mean age of 6 months underwent implantation of metal stent graft placed in the aorta at the level of the renal arteries after 100 days of...

The recent developments in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be useful observing the detailed haemodynamics renal artery bifurcation for clinical evaluation and treatment. present study focuses on haemodynamic behaviour of blood as it flows through abdominal aorta-renal junction an idealistic healthy with varying angles to aorta, i.e. from 30° 90° increments 15°. This is examine effect ang...

Background: The nutcracker syndrome represents a clinical condition caused by compression of the left renal vein (LRV) between the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the aorta. One of its manifestations is left-sided varicocele. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of nutcracker syndrome in patients with primary and recurrent high grade left-sided varicocele. Methods: Fifty pa...

Abdominal aortic coarctation is an extremely rare vascular pathology. Its etiology can be congenital or acquired. Here we present a case of acquired infrarenal abdominal coarctation in a 66-year-old woman who complained of low back and legs pain. She had no signs of resting lower limb ischemia, with diminished distal pulses and normal blood pressure in upper and lower extremities. Magnetic reso...
