We present a case of aneurysmal dilation of the aortic residual segment, involving abdominal vessels in corrective surgeries for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm, through the identification of risk groups for recurrent dilation, aiming at using a specific operative technique with a branched graft, to prevent aneurysm relapse.

Persistent primitive olfactory arteries (PPOAs) are a rare variant of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA). Cerebral aneurysms may arise in the PPOA; most are saccular and on the unilateral PPOA. We report a 66-year-old male with bilateral PPOAs and a fusiform aneurysm on the left side detected at a health check-up.

Introduction And Importance: True brachial artery aneurysms are rather uncommon, due to their number of etiological factors. Besides inducing symptoms such as hand or digit ischemia, they may present as pulsative tumefactions and cause pain or paresthesias through nerve impingement. The diagnosis is based on duplex ultrasonography, CTA in the operational planning phase, and a physical examination.

Background: Coronary artery ectasias and aneurysms (CAE/CAAs) are among the less common forms of coronary artery disease, with undefined long-term outcomes and treatment strategies.
Aims: To assess the clinical characteristics, angiographic patterns, and long-term outcomes in patients with CAE, CAA, or both.
Methods: This 15-year (2006-2021) retrospective single-centre registry included 281 patients diagnosed with CAE/CAA via invasive coronary angiography.
Unraveling the molecular complexity of bicuspid aortopathy: Lessons from comparative proteomics.

Molecular markers and pathways involved in the etiology and pathophysiology of bicuspid aortopathy are poorly understood. The aim here is to delve into the molecular and cellular mechanisms of the disease and identify potential predictive molecular markers using a well-established isogenic hamster model (T-strain) of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and thoracic aortic dilatation (TAD). We carried out comparative quantitative proteomics combined with western blot and morpho-molecular analyses in the ascending aorta of tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) and BAV animals from the T-strain, and TAV animals from a control strain.
