Objectives: Pseudoaneurysm formation in connective tissue patients postoperatively can be a challenging and life-threatening problem to treat. Repair of an aorta to intercostal bypass graft pseudoaneurysm post open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair by percutaneous glue embolization utilizing Dyna CT Needle Guidance technology is a safe, minimally invasive method with low morbidity and short post-procedural recovery.
Methods: A 30-year-old male with suspected connective tissue disorder who developed a Type B aortic dissection complicated by limb threatening right lower extremity ischemia treated with left-to-right fem-fem bypass and RLE fasciotomies.
The ATP-driven bicarbonate transporter 1 (BCT1) from Synechococcus is a four-component complex in the cyanobacterial CO2-concentrating mechanism. BCT1 could enhance photosynthetic CO2 assimilation in plant chloroplasts. However, directing its subunits (CmpA, CmpB, CmpC, and CmpD) to three chloroplast sub-compartments is highly complex.
