Abstract excerpt
<h4>BACKGROUND</h4> An abnormal accumulation of immune cells and a disrupted lipoprotein metabolism has previously been described as part of the pathogenesis of ascending aortic aneurysm in patients with tricuspid aortic valves. The factor driving the accumulation of immune cells remains unclear; however, it may be considered in light of the observation that proximal aortic dilatation often occurs alongside aortic...
