Ascending simply means that "x" originates at a lower point than it terminates. For example, the ascending aorta starts from the left ventricle and ends at the arch of the aorta. The left ventricle is inferior to the arch of the aorta, thus that portion of the aorta is considered ascending.
An abnormally narrow aorta is a congenital heart defect (called coarctation of the aorta).
