The diagnosis of an ascending aortic aneurysm is best made on CT angiography or MR angiography. Echocardiography can visualized the proximal portion of the aorta, however not the aortic arch and only minimal portions of the descending thoracic aorta. Transesophageal echocardiography is also accurate and...
OBJECTIVES: The higher risk of adverse aortic events in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease and ascending aorta aneurysm is known, but the management of moderate aortic root dilatation in younger patients is a controversial issue. The aim of the study was to compare survival in ...
Aneurysm of Ascending Aorta and Aortic Valve Insufficiency: Surgical TreatmentAscending aorta aneurysms with aortic valvular insufficiency is a severe and invaliding disease. Prognosis is very poor and natural history extremely short. Cardiac decompensation, dissection, and rupture are the most common ...

Catastrophic ascending aorta aneurysm (AsAA) dissection and rupture can be prevented by elective surgical repair, but identifying individuals at risk remains a challenge. Typically the decision to operate is based primarily on the overall aneurysm size, which may not be a reliable indicator of risk....

An aneurysm of the ascending aorta encountered during an aortic valve operation may be of limited size. It is tempting under these conditions to use a less radical operation than graft replacement, such as reduction aortoplasty, especially in high-risk elderly patients in whom a decreased aortic ...
