Case Report: Unlocking arteria Lusoria challenges: sternotomy's role in a single-stage aneurysm repair and artery realignment

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Symptomatic cases and aneurysms necessitate surgical intervention, while asymptomatic cases may warrant observation. Cardiopulmonary bypass ensured safe manipulation, and post-operative imaging confirmed excellent outcomes, with complete symptom resolution.

Racial Disparities in Long-Term Outcomes After Endovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repair in Black and White Medicare Beneficiaries

Circulation

BACKGROUND:Despite reported racial disparities between Black and White adults in short-term outcomes after abdominal aortic aneurysmal intervention, there is a paucity of literature aimed at understanding long-term disparities. The cumulative incidence of the primary outcome was 72.9% (95% CI, 71.8%73.9%)

A bibliometric analysis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (2014–2024)

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

BackgroundAbdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a localized bulge of the abdominal aorta, which mainly manifests as a pulsatile mass in the abdomen. Once an abdominal aortic aneurysm ruptures, the patient's life is seriously endangered. Surgery is the preferred treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Modern management of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAA) remain one of the most clinically challenging and technically complex emergencies in contemporary vascular surgery practice. Despite these advances, current postoperative outcomes remain sobering since morbidity and mortality rates ranging from 25%-50% persist among modern published series.

Case Report: Combined transcatheter arterial embolization and aortic stent-graft have better efficacy for bronchial artery aneurysms

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Bronchial artery aneurysm (BAA) is a rare and fatal condition that requires immediate treatment. In the present case, a 76-year-old hypertensive woman was admitted with dizziness and diagnosed with an unruptured bronchial artery aneurysm, which was treated by transcatheter arterial embolization and aortic stent-graft.
