The distal aorta in the Marfan syndrome

Abstract: Prolonged survival of patients with Marfan syndrome after aortic root replacement has led to an increased number of patients with aortic complications beyond the root. Elective replacement of the aortic root removes the most important predilection site for aneurysms, but the distal aorta remains at risk. Predictors for aortic growth and adverse events in the distal aorta include aortic diameter, aortic distensiblity, previous aortic root replacement, hypertension and aortic regurgitation. After aortic dissecti… Show more

“…Нам не удалось обнаружить лите-ратурных данных, подтверждающих или опровергаю-щих данный тезис. Тем не менее, при естественном течении аортальной патологии [17] при синдроме Марфана существует зависимость между возрастом дебюта аортальной патологии и "агрессивностью" роста аневризм и возникновения расслоений аорты.…”

“…Although sudden death from aortic dissection is decreasing due to improved aortic monitoring and elective aortic root surgery, some patients need to undertake surgery for distal aorta after aortic root surgery [ 10 ]. After elective aortic root surgery, dilatation of the distal aorta is more common than before [ 11 ].…”

“…Dependendo do grau de envolvimento das carótidas, alguns pacientes podem ter seqüelas neurológicas e o envolvimento das coronárias pode levar a infarto agudo do miocárdio e morte súbita. O mecanismo pelo qual o paciente evolui a óbito é pela ruptura do saco pericárdico e posterior tamponamento cardíaco (26,27,28) .…”
