Abstract

On a test bench, several mechanical characteristics of the thoracic aorta of corpses were studied. Changes in the physical properties of the largest human vessel were compared with age and a history of diseases. The obtained data are compared with the mechanical properties of vascular prostheses and patches in the aspect of their choice during operations on the aorta.
