Aneurysm II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies01:21

Aneurysm II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies

449
Thoracic, aortic arch and abdominal aneurysms are significant vascular conditions that can present with various clinical manifestations and lead to serious complications. Understanding these manifestations and the appropriate diagnostic studies is essential for effective management and treatment.Thoracic Aortic AneurysmsThoracic aortic aneurysms often remain asymptomatic until they reach a size that impinges on adjacent structures. They typically cause deep, diffuse chest pain that radiates to...

Aneurysm I: Introduction

562
An aortic aneurysm is a localized outpouching or dilation at a weak point in the artery wall. It may involve different parts of the aorta, such as the abdominal aorta, aortic arch, or thoracic aorta.Etiological factorsSeveral disorders are associated with aortic aneurysms.Congenital causes, such as primary connective tissue disorders like Marfan syndrome, impact the integrity and strength of connective tissues, notably affecting the aorta. Marfan syndrome is a genetic disorder that specifically...

Aortic Regurgitation II: Clinical Features and Diagnostic Tests

714
Aortic valve regurgitation (AR) occurs when the aortic valve fails to close properly, allowing blood to flow backward from the aorta into the left ventricle. This backflow can result in two distinct clinical presentations: acute and chronic AR, each characterized by its own set of symptoms and physical findings.Acute Aortic RegurgitationAcute AR presents with a sudden onset of severe symptoms. Patients typically experience profound dyspnea (shortness of breath), chest pain, and signs of left...

Aneurysm III: Interprofessional Care

414
Aneurysm management involves either conservative medical therapy or surgical intervention, depending on the size and symptoms of the aneurysm. Conservative management is generally reserved for smaller, asymptomatic aneurysms, while larger or symptomatic aneurysms often necessitate surgical repair.Conservative Medical TherapyFor small, asymptomatic aneurysms, particularly abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) less than 5.5 centimeters in diameter, conservative medical therapy is recommended. This...

Aortic Regurgitation I: Introduction

955
IntroductionAortic regurgitation is characterized by the backward flow of blood from the aorta into the left ventricle during diastole and arises from the improper closure of the aortic valve. This condition results in left ventricular volume overload and can stem from both acute and chronic etiologies, each contributing uniquely to the disease's progression and symptomatology.Acute and Chronic CausesAcute aortic regurgitation often results from events that suddenly impair the integrity of the...

Aortic Regurgitation III: Medical Management

525
Aortic regurgitation (AR) is when the aortic valve does not close or seal properly, leading to backward blood circulation from the aorta into the left ventricle during diastole. Common causes of AR include rheumatic heart disease, congenital valve defects, and aortic root dilation. Managing AR requires a multifaceted approach to alleviate symptoms, preserve left ventricular function, and address the underlying cause of the regurgitation. Patients with symptomatic AR or significant left...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Medicine
  • Rheumatology
  • Vascular Surgery

Background:

  • Aortic dissection (AD) is an infrequent complication of Takayasu arteritis (TA).
  • Limited data exists on the clinical presentation and long-term outcomes of AD in TA patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the clinical characteristics and management outcomes of aortic dissection in patients with Takayasu arteritis.
  • To identify risk factors and guide management strategies for AD in TA.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study of patients with TA and AD from January 1985 to March 2016.
  • Analysis of clinical data, AD classification, treatment, and follow-up outcomes.

Main Results:

  • 10 out of 1,154 TA patients (0.87%) developed AD, predominantly females with type III TA and hypertension.
  • Stanford type B or DeBakey category III AD was common; most patients were treated conservatively.
  • Follow-up showed stable disease in 7 patients, progression in 1, loss to follow-up in 1, and 1 death.

Conclusions:

  • Long-standing, poorly controlled hypertension increases AD risk in TA patients.
  • Extensive AD in TA requires careful treatment and intensive follow-up.
