Dorsal aorta carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the tissues, while the ventral aorta carries impure blood (rich in carbon dioxide) from the heart to the lungs.
A tortuous thoracic aorta is an aorta that is twisted or misshapen in some people. This can lead to discomfort in some people, but no effects at all in others.
The renal arteries.
Pulmonary artery Aorta
Tortuous aorta is a pathological condition where the aorta has an irregular shape, usually contorted, and can affect blood flow coming out of the heart and to the body tissues.
The aorta itself does not lead to a specific chamber of the heart. Upon the final stages of the contraction of the heart, blood that is present within the left ventricle of the heart is pumped out of the left ventricle, and is pushed into the aorta, which is the largest artery in the human body. The aorta itself gives rise to all of the other arteries of the body.
The aorta is the largest artery in your body and is connected directly to the heart and it also carries the blood to the rest of your body and disperses the blood to the branches of other arteries extended off the aorta.
There are actually more than one portion of the aorta that is in the abdominopelvic cavity. The left ventricle and thoracic aorta of the heart lead to the abdominal aorta which begins at the diaphragm. The abdominal aorta first branches into the inferior phrenic and celiac arteries, superior mesenteric and middle suprarenal arteries, renal and gonadal arteries, lumbar artery, inferior mesenteric artery, and the median sacral and common iliac arteries. From there, the artery splits to form the two common iliac arteries that carry blood to the legs.
