The prognosis of patients undergoing emergency endovascular repair of ascending thoracic
aortic aneurysm (ATAA) depends on defect location, with root disease bearing worse …

Thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) are commonly seen in cardiovascular practice. Acquired

Purpose Finite element analysis (FEA) has been used to predict wall stress in ascending
thoracic aortic aneurysm (ATAA) in order to evaluate risk of dissection or rupture. Patient …

Background Although aneurysms of the ascending aorta and the aortic root are treated
similarly in clinical guidelines, how biomechanical properties differ between these 2 …
