内容説明

This text provides highly clinical and comprehensive coverage of the diseases of the aorta, both common and unusual. Emphasis is placed on three areas: firstly, aetiologic bases and pathophysiologic mechanisms are considered. A review of these matters is necessary in view of recent findings with regard to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and to fundamental disturbances of the molecular biology and biochemistry of the aortic media. Secondly the clinical features of common and rare aortic diseases are detailed. Findings important to the prompt recognition of the presence of aortic disease and its potential threat to the patient are emphasized. Finally an illustrated review of aortic imaging techniques is provided. Recent advances in radiographic, nuclear magnetic resonance and ultrasound imaging have provided useful clinical tools. Moreover the pictures of the aorta produced by them provide important insights into the fundamental nature of aortic disease.
