Raimundo C. Santos: The Main Aggressors of the Aorta and What These Lead to

Raimundo C. Santos, Medical Director of WR Associated Physicians, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“The aorta is considered an organ.

It carries blood from the heart and distributes it to all organs.

Take good care of it!

The main aggressors are:

  • smoking
  • high blood pressure
  • atherosclerosis, arrhythmias
  • genetic collagen diseases

These lead, respectively, to:

  • aortic ulcers
  • dissections
  • aneurysms
  • thrombosis
  • embolisms
  • ruptures.”
