PurposeTo assess the efficacy of Cardiatis Multilayer Flow Modulator (CMFM), a bare cobalt alloy self-expanding stent, in treatment peripheral and visceral artery aneurysms. MethodsIn this multicenter (n=22), prospective, voluntary registry, 54 patients (47 men; mean age 68 years, range 19–87) who underwent CMFM deployment for (n=35) or aneurysms (n=19) variety target arteries were enrolled between June 2009 2010. Among lesions, 44 had total 53 side branches. The main effectiveness endpoint...

Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is still associated with higher periprocedural cerebrovascular events (CEs) compared to vascular surgery. The Roadsaver carotid stent a double layer micromesh which reduces plaque prolapse and embolisation by improving coverage. Its clinical impact on neurological outcome was unknown. aim of this study therefore report the results large real-world population from three different centres receiving treat disease.One hundred fifty (150) patients (age 74±8 yrs, 75%...

The aim was to evaluate the short term safety and effectiveness of Penumbra/Indigo aspiration thrombectomy Systems (Penumbra Inc.) in patients with acute lower limb ischaemia. (ALLI). Recently, endovascular vacuum assisted devices, similar those used management ischaemic stroke, have become available for peripheral arteries, but data are still scarce.To assess vessel patency, a modified Thrombolysis Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) classification, called TIPI (Thrombo-aspiration In Peripheral...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the 1-year safety and efficacy a dual-layered stent (DLS) for carotid artery stenting (CAS) in multicenter registry.DLS have been proved be safe efficient during short-term follow-up. Recent data raised concern that benefit CAS performed with using DLS may hampered by higher restenosis rate at 1 year.From January 2017 June 2019, physician-initiated, prospective, multispecialty registry enrolled 733 consecutive patients undergoing CGuard embolic...

Abstract Endovascular treatment of arterial injuries with stent-graft is a reliable alternative approach in patients not suitable for embolization or at high risk surgery. The aim our study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety BeGraft stent-graft, low-profile balloon expandable covered stent, emergency endovascular iatrogenic injuries. Between August 2015 September 2018, 34 consecutive (mean age 71 ± 12 years, 9 females) underwent implantation stent-grafts (22 active bleedings, 11...
