Full Treatment Options for Aortic Disease

The aorta is the main artery of the body, supplying blood to the circulatory system. The artery rises from the heart, supplying blood to the head and arms from vessels that branch off a top arch (aortic arch). The aorta then continues down through the chest (thoracic aorta) and into the abdomen (abdominal aorta). From the abdominal aorta, five arteries branch away to supply blood to the organs in the abdomen, pelvis and lower extremities.

The Aortic Disease Center of University Hospitals Harrington Heart & Vascular Institute is a nationally recognized high-volume program, offering advanced diagnostic testing and treatment options for patients with all types of acute and chronic/monitored aortic disease.
