Familial Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms and Dissections—Incidence, Modes of Inheritance, and Phenotypic Patterns
Gonzalo Albornoz,Michael A. Coady,Michele Roberts,Ryan R. Davies,Maryann Tranquilli,John A. Rizzo,John A. Elefteriades +6 more
TL;DR: TAAs are frequently familial diseases, exemplifying a more aggressive clinical entity and Screening of first-order relatives of probands with TAA is essential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Straight deep hypothermic arrest: experience in 394 patients supports its effectiveness as a sole means of brain preservation.
Arjet Gega,John A. Rizzo,Michele H. Johnson,Maryann Tranquilli,Emily A. Farkas,John A. Elefteriades +5 more
TL;DR: Straight DHCA without adjunctive perfusion suffices as a sole means of cerebral protection and stroke and seizure rates are low, especially for straightforward ascending/arch reconstructions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Weight lifting and aortic dissection: more evidence for a connection.
Ioannis Hatzaras,Maryann Tranquilli,Michael A. Coady,P.M. Barrett,Jesse E. Bible,John A. Elefteriades +5 more
TL;DR: Weight lifting related acute aortic dissection appears to be a real phenomenon, with increasing evidence for the association of extreme exertion with this catastrophic aortIC event.
Journal ArticleDOI
Femoral Cannulation is Safe for Type A Dissection Repair
TL;DR: Straight femoral cannulation for all phases of type A dissection repair is appropriate and yields excellent clinical results and the anticipated malperfusion events are actually rare.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical deterioration underlies malignant behavior of aneurysmal human ascending aorta
George J. Koullias,Raj Modak,Maryann Tranquilli,Dimitris P. Korkolis,Paul G. Barash,John A. Elefteriades +5 more
TL;DR: The mechanical properties of the aneurysmal aortas deteriorate dramatically as the aorta enlarges, reaching critical levels associated with rupture by a diameter of 6 cm, and this mechanical deterioration provides an explanation in engineering terms for the malignant clinical behavior (rupture and dissection) of the aorts at these dimensions.
