  • Title: Severe aortic wall degeneration after aortic wrapping.
    Author: Ehrlich T, Federspiel JM, Bohle RM, Schäfers HJ.
    Journal: Eur J Cardiothorac Surg; 2021 Jul 30; 60(2):425-427. PubMed ID: 33517392.
    Abstract:
    We report a case in whom aortic wrapping had been performed for aortic dilatation. Ten years later, further progression of aortic root diameter was documented (root size of 66 mm). We performed complete replacement of the proximal aorta. Macroscopically and microscopically, there was extreme degeneration and thinning of the aorta under the graft.
