The entire aorta divides into two parts: the thoracic aorta and the abdominal aorta. The ascending aorta, along with the aortic arch and the descending aorta, makes up the thoracic aorta.

The Thoracic Aorta has 4 distinct parts: Aortic Root – Lies in the front portion of the chest below the sternum. It starts at the level of the heart and includes the aortic valve and the portion where the coronary arteries arise called the Sinus of Valsalva.
The aorta can be divided into four sections: the ascending aorta, the aortic arch, the thoracic (descending) aorta and the abdominal aorta. It terminates at the level of L4 by bifurcating into the left and right common iliac arteries.
The ascending aorta (AAo) is a portion of the aorta commencing at the upper part of the base of the left ventricle, on a level with the lower border of the third costal cartilage behind the left half of the sternum.

Calcific aortic stenosis is a frequent degenerative disease, which represents the most common indication for adult heart valve surgery, and carries substantial morbidity and mortality. Due to ageing populations in western countries, its prevalence is expected to increase in the coming years.

The ascending aorta originates beyond the aortic valve and ends right before the innominate artery (brachiocephalic trunc). It is approximately 5 cm long and is composed of two distinct segments. The lower segment, known as the aortic root, encompasses the sinuses of Valsalva and sinotubular junction (STJ).
Typically, there are three branches arising from the aortic arch: the brachiocephalic trunk or artery (also referred to as the innominate artery), the left common carotid artery, and the left subclavian artery.
The convexity of the aortic arch gives off three branches; the brachiocephalic trunk, the left common carotid artery and the left subclavian artery. Brachiocephalic trunk: also called the brachiocephalic artery, is the first and largest artery that branches off the aortic arch.
