Rupture of an ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm (ATAA), which is associated with significant mortality, occurs when the mechanical forces acting on the aneurysm exceed the strength of the degenerated aortic wall. The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in biomechanical properties of the aortic wall related to ATAA formation.
