Amyloid deposition in the valves can lead to thickening but rarely to significant dysfunction. Furthermore, amyloid protein can deposit in the media and adventitia of coronary arteries and veins, and ...

The 3-cm distance provides critical working space and better visualisation of the lesion. Step 3. Intraperitoneal subserosal dissection: after locating the lesion on the serosa of the gastric wall ...

Hypertension prevalence increases with age. Age and high blood pressure are the two main determinants of arterial stiffness. In elderly hypertensives, large arteries stiffen and systolic and pulse ...

In larger arteries, the media is perfused by capillaries known as vasa vasorum, which enter the media through the outermost layer, the tunica adventitia; an ECM and fibroblast-rich layer. Created with ...

Placenta increta is characterised by invasion of placental villi into the myometrium. The most severe form is placenta percreta, characterised by invasion of villi beyond the myometrium to the uterine ...

that is not perceived. Sensory innervation of the gastrointestinal tract involves all layers of a viscus (mucosa, muscle, and serosa) and visceral receptors exhibit chemosensitivity, thermosensitivity ...

disruption of adventitia. The grading scale is shown in the online supplementary data (A2). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was performed on the intraluminal surfaces of the devices for Flex ...

situated between the adventitia and the outer third of the media. The intermediate CT density of the lesion could be a sign that the dissection was progressing relatively slowly, which might also ...
