However, when considered against a conventional standard of 34 mm,13,14 63 (36%) met this criterion in the aortic root and 63 (40%) in the ascending aorta. Aortic size at the sinuses of Valsalva was slightly larger among female rowers than runners (mean [SD], 33.7 [3.3] mm; 95...

An increase in orifice size of the stoma with time was documented in eight patients. Additional subsequent palliative surgery was required in 22 per cent (45/208). Mortality rate was directly related to age to operation and was highest in neonates less than one week of age. In infants with...

If the aneurysm ismore than 5.5 centimeters in size, or if it's rapidly getting larger, your doctor may recommend surgery to repair the aneurysm. In many cases, doctors will run a catheter through the patient's femoral artery in the groin to the site of the aneurysm in the aorta, then...
Download: Download full-size image Figure 1. Reduction aortoplasty. An oval segment is excised of the maximal convexity of the ascending aorta, thus reducing its diameter to normal (A), and then the aortotomy is closed with a running mattress and an over-and-over nonabsorbable suture (B)...
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 ...
The present study aimed to assess the prognostic implications and surgical risks of replacing the dilated aorta during AVR.MethodsBetween January 1999 and March 2010, 134 patients who received surgery for aortic stenosis and post-stenotic dilatation (aorta size 40mm) were included in the present ...
