Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and echocardiographic imaging of patients with aortic disease should follow recommended approaches for image acquisition, measurement and reporting of relevant aortic dimensions, and the frequency of surveillance before and after intervention.
Primary aortic mural thrombus (PAMT) is an uncommon condition but an important source of noncardiogenic emboli with a difficult diagnosis and a high rate of complications, including high mortality. We report our experience of thromboembolic disease from PAMT and review its contemporary management.
No definitive guidelines are available for its management, however, different approaches have been proposed including medical treatment by therapeutic anticoagulation alone or in association with thrombectomy or thrombolysis, open surgical/endovascular (bare-metal or covered stent), or hybrid techniques. 2.
27 lip 2021 · Antithrombotic therapy is a pillar of optimal medical treatment for patients with aortic and/or peripheral artery disease (PAD), who are at very high cardiovascular risk. For patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis, long-term antiplatelet therapy with aspirin or clopidogrel is recommended.
29 sie 2014 · The involvement of the ascending aorta and aortic arch (Type A) may account for 30% and 10% of cases, respectively, whereas it involves the descending thoracic aorta (Type B) in 60–70% of cases. 228, 229.
Background: Thoracic aortic mural thrombus (TAMT) of the descending aorta is rare but can result in dramatic embolic events. Early treatment is therefore crucial; however, there is not a consensus on ideal initial treatment.
