Níveis de hormônios tireoideanos em pacientes com dissecção aórtica: comparação com controles e correlação com a porcentagem de área da camada média composta por depósitos mixóides

Abstract

Our data suggest that serum levels of thyroid hormones have no relation with the myxoid content in the aortic media in cases of aortic dissection.

Thyroid Hormone Is Related to Postoperative AKI in Acute Type A Aortic Dissection

“…The proportion of ATAAD patients with low T3 levels was as high as 79.5% (70/88), which was similar to a previous report (23). However, the clinical significance of thyroid hormone levels in ATAAD has not yet been confirmed (24). The relationship between low T3 levels and vulnerable renal function has been observed in patients with chronic clinical hypothyroidism and renal failure (17).…”

Aortas with Three Lumina

“…Although the pathogenesis of aortic dissection has not been totally clarified 4 , a weakness of the wall is probably present, linked to alterations in the extracellular matrix, including a reduction in collagen 5 . That underlying condition is reinforced by the fact that the artery might have more than one dissection.…”
