Abstract 10199: Increased Aortic Wall Shear Stress in Marfan Patients Long-Term After Proximal Grafting Assessed by 4D Flow Cardiac Magnetic Resonance

Abstract: Introduction: For Marfan syndrome patients (MFS) with thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA), prosthetic graft surgery provides lifesaving benefits, but adverse event risk persists in the native aorta for which mechanism is unclear. Sustained impact of proximal grafts on biomechanics within and distal to grafts is unknown. Methods: MFS patients with chronic (> 6 month) proximal grafts were compared to non-surgical MFS (nsMFS) and age/sex matched controls: W… Show more
