Description

Anatomically the aorta is divided in several parts, depending on the zone of the body that the
vessel covers. The aorta is first called thoracic aorta as it leaves the heart, ascends, arches, and descends through the chest until it reaches the diaphragm when takes the name of abdominal aorta and continues down the abdomen. The abdominal aorta ends where it splits to form the two iliac arteries that go to the legs. Aorta is subject of aneurysm and it can develop anywhere along the length of the aorta.
