The susceptibility of the aortic root: porcine aortic rupture testing under cardiopulmonary bypass

Abstract Background In our earlier study on the functional limits of the aneurysmal aortic root we determined the pig root is susceptible to failure at high aortic pressures levels. We established a pig rupture model using cardiopulmonary bypass to determine the most susceptible region of the aortic...
