We have a dissecting thoracic aorta. We need a C.T. Cleared and an O.R. Ready.

马上要做一胸主脉瘤手术。还要拍一CT，手术室准备好。

In May of 2010, at 35 years old, with a two-year-old at home and my second child on the way, I was diagnosed with a large aneurysm at the base of my thoracic aorta.

2010年5月，35岁的我拥有一2岁的孩，第二孩即将出生。诊断结果显示，我长了一脉瘤，位于胸腔主脉。

The thoracic aorta is the part that travels through your thorax and spans from the aortic arch to the level of the diaphragm.

胸主脉是穿过胸腔，从主脉弓到横膈膜的部分。

The thoracic aorta has a number of paired blood vessels that branch off like back roads off of a highway.

胸主脉有许多成对的血管分支，就像高速公路分支的小道一样。

For instance, there's a paired branch of arteries that come off of the thoracic aorta that feed the lungs.

例如，一对脉分支从供养肺部的胸主脉中分支出来。

Therefore, we see that the section that runs through your thorax is named the thoracic aorta.

因此，我们看到贯穿胸部的部分被称为胸主脉。

Like the thoracic aorta, the abdominal aorta has many branches that supply blood to the surrounding structures.

与胸主脉一样，腹主脉也有许多分支，向周围结构供血。
