Abstract

Background and Aims : The aortic size alone is insufficient predictor of the aortic-related events. In this regard, aortic wall stiffness also need to be evaluated for clearer understanding on the contributors of aortic-related complications. We compared global circumferential strain (GCS) and global circumferential strain/pulse pressure (GCS/PP) and fraction area change (FAC) in moderated dilated and aneurysmal ascending aorta (AA).
