Abstract

Although the risk of thoracic aortic dissection and rupture (TAD) is well-known in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the risk of TAD in other congenital heart diseases (CHD), particularly conotruncal lesions like tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), truncus arteriosus, D-transposition of the great arteries (D-TGA), and double outlet right ventricle is currently unknown. The primary purpose of this study was to describe TAD in conotruncal CHD, and the secondary purpose was to explore whether an association exists between TAD and conotruncal CHD. Using the Texas Inpatient Public Use Data File, an administrative database of all Texas hospitalizations, including >37.9 million hospitalizations from January 1999 through June 2012, 12,016 cases of TAD and 214 cases of TAD in CHD were identified. The most common lesions were BAV (42%), atrial septal defect (21%), aortic coarctation (7%), ventricular septal defect (6%), and patent ductus arteriosus (4%). Three patients with TOF, 2 with D-TGA, and 1 with truncus arteriosus were admitted with TAD. An exploratory case-control study in patients older than 1 year using multilevel logistic regression models to evaluate the association between CHD and TAD that controlled for known TAD risk factors demonstrat...Continue Reading

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.

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.

Aneurysm

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

Aortic Coarctation

Aortic coarctation is a congenital condition characterized by narrowing of the aorta. Discover the latest research on this disease here.
