Figures
- Fig 1.
Schematic of elastase-induced aneurysms in rabbits in groups 1 and 2. A temporary arcuate aneurysm clip is placed at the origin of the RCCA, indicating the inner edge of clip blade on the juncture of RCCA and right subclavian artery. LCCA indicates left common carotid artery.
- Fig 2.
Intravenous digital subtraction angiography in a rabbit from group 1. The aneurysm is stable at 3 weeks, 8 weeks, 4 months, and 6 months after surgery.
- Fig 3.
Histopathologic analysis of the right common carotid artery (RCCA) in group 1. A, The RCCA induced by elastase after 3 weeks, stained by ponceau/Victoria blue, becomes an aneurysm with intact elastin in the parent vessel and abrupt termination of the elastic lamina at the margins of aneurysm orifice (original magnification ×40). B, Hematoxylin-eosin staining indicates a thin aneurysm wall, the absence of an inflammatory reaction, and marked loss of cellular elements (original magnification ×200).
