Independence of renin production and hypertension in abdominal aortic aneurysmectomy

American Journal of Surgery
G A GrindlingerH B Hechtman

Abstract

Seventeen patients undergoing elective repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm were examined to determine the causal mechanism for postoperative hypertension. In nine patients who had elevated systemic pressure after surgery, there were no correlations between mean arterial pressure and values of peripheral renin activity or angiotensin II. Further, no relation was demonstrated between systemic pressure and the volumes of crystalloid, colloid infused or milliequivalents of sodium administered pre- and intraoperatively. Postoperative arterial pressure correlated best with the preoperative value.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Aneurysm

Aneurysms are outward distensions or bulges that occurs in a weakened wall of blood vessels. Discover the latest research on aneurysms here.
