Talk:Ascending aorta

"Missing verb in sentence"

As of this writing, the second paragraph in the [[1]] section consists of a sentence that lacks a verb: "Between each commissure of the aortic valve and opposite the cusps of the aortic valve, three small dilations called the aortic sinuses.". I wish I could fix it, but I don't know enough about heart anatomy to do so. If you fix it, please delete this comment. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DBooth (talk • contribs) 13:06, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

"Aortic root"

I suggest adding the term "aortic root" with a redirect to this page. Thomas.Hedden (talk) 00:47, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

That was done. However, the article lacks an illustration to show this structure and related structures, such as the sinotubular junction and aortic sinuses. Added "Anatomical diagram requested|date=April2020" yoyo (talk) 23:53, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

One of the diagrams does include these details - I have removed the Anatomical diagram requested tag (by converting it to text). Egmason (talk) 01:50, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

Clinical significance

This section needs to be added. A cursory look reveals no wikipedia page on surgical replacement of the ascending aorta.
