Abstract: Arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATS) is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by elongation and tortuosity of the large‐ and medium‐sized arteries. ATS patients display features that are also found in Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (EDS) patients. ATS… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abd3574
Abstract: Local microstructural defects and insidious positive feedback lead to tortuous arteries that disrupt blood flow. Arterial tortuosity manifests in many conditions, including hypertension, genetic mutations predisposing to thoracic aortopathy, and vascular aging. Despite evidence that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2022/4280410
Abstract: Introduction The association between arterial tortuosity and acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has been reported, but showing inconsistent results. We hypothesized that tortuosity of extra- and intracranial large arteries might be higher in AIS patients. Furthermore,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fped.2021.814773
Abstract: We report a novel case of a full term newborn with non-immune fetal hydrops and arterial tortuosity mimicking a double aortic arch, and cranial fractures in the immediate neonatal period. The infant had no classic… read more here.
