A fusiform dilation called the spindle of His is found within it.
Loeys-Dietz syndrome can result in the aneurysm of a portion of this structure known as the sinus of Valsalva. A fusiform dilation called the spindle of His is found within it. It narrows where its namesake ductus inserts in its namesake coarctation, and an "overriding" one is found in the tetralogy of Fallot. Part of it is known as its namesake bulb, and Marfan syndrome results in its enlarging. Among its branches are "brachiocephalic" and "subclavian" structures, and it is divided into ascending and descending portions and a namesake arch. For 10 points, identify this structure which carries blood out of the left ventricle, the largest artery in the body.
