The aim of this study was to evaluate the proportion thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs) that could theoretically be treated with JOTEC® E-nside® Thoracoabdominal Branch Endoprosthesis off-the-shelf multibranched endograft.Preoperative computed tomography scans patients atherosclerotic TAAA between 2007 and 2019 were reviewed, anatomical feasibility E-nside graft verified by a retrospective (clinicaltrials.gov: NCT03959670) based on investigational manufacturer instructions for use....
To evaluate the potential anatomical feasibility of using off-the-shelf multibranched Zenith t-Branch for treatment thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs) in female patients.A total 268 patients (median age 68 years; 69 women) with degenerative TAAA treated at a single institution by means open or endovascular repair between 2007 and 2019 were retrospectively analyzed to determine based on manufacturer's instructions use. The factors determining overall divided into vascular access,...
To report the mid-term outcomes of fenestrated-branched endovascular aneurysm repair (F-BEVAR) following a failed previous (pEVAR) or open (pOAR).Data from consecutive patients who underwent F-BEVAR for pEVAR pOAR 2006 to 2021 17 European vascular centers were analyzed. Endpoints included technical success, major adverse events, 30-day mortality, and 5-year estimates survival, target vessel primary patency, freedom reinterventions, type I/III endoleaks, sac growth >5 mm.Treatment abdominal...
Objective: The use of steerable sheaths to allow total transfemoral access (TFA) branched endovascular repair (BEVAR) thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms has been proposed as an alternative upper extremity (UEA); however, multicenter results from high-volume centers are lacking. Materials and Methods: Total Transfemoral Branched Endovascular Thoracoabdominal Aortic Repair (TORCH2) study is a physician-initiated, national, multicenter, retrospective, observational registry (Clinicaltrials.gov...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes open and endovascular treatment downstream thoracic or thoraco-abdominal aortic pathology in patients who underwent previous frozen elephant trunk (FET).Data were retrieved mortality, cardiac, pulmonary, cerebrovascular, renal spinal cord major adverse events, early- mid-term reintervention survival rates. Society for Vascular Surgery reporting standards used.From 2011 2020, 48 (36 males, median age 60 years) repair at a 18 months...
Until now, there have been no evidence based recommendations on the maximum internal iliac artery (IIA) diameter to avoid occurrence of distal endoleak (type Ic).This article provides valuable insights into this issue, confirming what some other authors had assumed, namely that when IIA has a ≥ 11 mm it performs worse, with significantly more type Ic endoleaks.As paper may encourage further research clearer limits for will be established.
Purpose: The treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs) using branched endovascular repair (BEVAR) is safe and effective. During deployment, the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) branch can unintentionally open into celiac trunk (CT) ostium switched catheterization SMA from CT be used as an alternative technique in these cases. This study aimed to investigate outcome exchanging intended target vessels (TVs) for branches during BEVAR. Materials Methods: A single-center...
The management of the false lumen (FL) when dealing with aortic dissection is a crucial aspect since inducing its thrombosis necessary in order to achieve remodeling. One pitfalls endovascular treatment (AD) retrograde distal FL perfusion and pressurization, which prevents thus remodeling, while being associated aneurysmal degeneration poor long-term outcomes.
Background: Transfemoral access (TFA) is a valuable alternative to upper extremity (UEA) for branched endovascular aortic repair (bEVAR). However, TFA requires large introducer sheaths, which can reduce blood flow lower limbs and the pelvis. This study aimed evaluate efficacy of sheath downsizing maintain limb perfusion during TFA–bEVAR. Methods: A single-center retrospective review was conducted including patients managed with TFA-performed bEVAR between December 2020 May 2021....
The aim of this study is to report our results with carotid body tumor (CBT) surgical management.Between 2010 and 2018, 100 CBTs (mean age: 48.0 years, range 21-80 years old) were treated in center. patients classified 3 groups according the size: group I (<3 cm), II (3 5 cm) III (>5 cm).Surgical resection was performed 88 conservative treatment 2 cases. Nine for bilateral involvement one them also again a relapse. Postoperatively, cranial nerve injury (CNI) significantly higher [3 (8.3%)...
Purpose: To describe a right carotid-femoral through-and-through (T&T) guidewire technique during branched thoracic endovascular aortic arch repair (B-TEVAR) to facilitate endograft delivery in very tortuous anatomy for type Ia endoleak (EL) of previous implantation. Technique: AT&T was established between the common carotid artery and femoral difficult delivery. Once arch, loop ascending aorta formed allow reach desired position without losing tension on guidewire. This maneuver...
