Hypoperfusion of the Adventitial Vasa Vasorum Develops an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.
The aortic wall is perfused by the adventitial vasa vasorum (VV). Tissue hypoxia has previously been observed as a manifestation of enlarged abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). We sought to determine whether hypoperfusion of the adventitial VV could develop AAAs. We created a novel animal model of ad...
