Ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm size at presentation and growth by diameter 2023, Clinical Radiology Citation Excerpt : Moreover, previous studies have shown that the rates of CT and other forms of imaging have steadily increased over the last two decades by an average of 5–10% annually from...
The latter is proportional with the diameter of the aorta and the blood pressure within and relates inversely to the thickness of its wall. Depending on these factors,2 ascending aortic aneurysms (AscAs) are expected to expand gradually, the risk of eventual rupture at a diameter of 5 to 6...
22 Aortic size was measured in the parasternal long axis view at end diastole at 4 levels: (1) aortic annulus, (2) sinuses of Valsalva, (3) sinotubular junction, and (4) ascending aorta (2-3 cm above the sinotubular junction at the maximal visualized diameter). Aortic measurements, ...
The diameter of the ascending aorta was determined to be 12.2 mm and descending aorta was 13.67 mm. Ratio of the main pulmonary artery to ascending aorta was 1.06, which was higher than the adult ration, usually taken as <0.9. Conclusion: The measurement criteria devised for early detection ...
aorta size and proportional dilation between genders. Despite the correction of aneurysm size to body size, acute aortic syndromes occur at smaller aneurysm sizes in women than in men with worse ATAA-related outcomes [55]. Thus, a smaller diameter of the aorta can progress more rapidly in ...
The original cavity in the anterior mediastinum with maximal diameter 15 cm remained as only a small scar. The patient was without serious health problems both early and after two years. Le pseudoanévrisme de l’aorte ascendante est une complication à haut risque après une chirurgie cardiaque...
This was associated with significant reduction in the diameter of rest of ascending aorta: coronary sinuses (from 37.9 ± 4.9 mm to 33.3 ± 6.1 mm; p 0.001), sinotubular junction (from 33.2 ± 4.7 mm to 30.6 ± 4.4 mm, p = 0.02), and aortic arch (from 34.7 ± 4.3 mm to 32.6 ±...
AAo: ascending aorta; CMR: cardiovascular magnetic resonance; LV: left ventricular; Sens: sensitivity; Spec: specificity. Intra- and interobserver variability in cardiovascular magnetic resonance A sample of 18 randomly chosen cases was reanalyzed. Intraobserver variability of the AAo diameter ...
