Histological regional analysis of the aortic root and thoracic ascending aorta: a complete analysis of aneurysms from root to arch

Histological regional analysis of the aortic root and thoracic ascending aorta: a complete analysis of aneurysms from root to arch

Abstract Background Although aortic root and ascending aortic aneurysms are treated the same, they differ in embryological development and pathological processes. This study examines the microscopic structural differences between aortic root and ascending aortic aneurysms, correlating these features...
