Major vessel (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aorta

'major vessel' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for aorta that I've seen before include "Main artery of body" , "Large trunk artery" , "Great artery in body" , "vital transporter" , "Blood-carrier from a heart" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and The New York Times.
