Temporal evolution of ascending aortic aneurysm wall stress predicts all-cause mortality

Abstract OBJECTIVES Diameter-based risk stratification for elective repair of ascending aortic aneurysm fails to prevent type A dissection in many patients. Aneurysm wall stresses may contribute to risk prediction; however, rates of wall stress change over time are poorly understood. Our objective w...

Description
Summary:Abstract OBJECTIVES Diameter-based risk stratification for elective repair of ascending aortic aneurysm fails to prevent type A dissection in many patients. Aneurysm wall stresses may contribute to risk prediction; however, rates of wall stress change over time are poorly understood. Our objective was to examine aneurysm wall stress changes over 3–5 years and subsequent all-cause mortality. METHODS Male veterans with
