Purpose: To evaluate the effect of vessel calcification on in-stent restenosis (ISR) after drug-coated stent (DCS) placement in femoropopliteal segment. Materials and Methods: A retrospective multicenter study was undertaken involving 220 consecutive symptomatic patients (mean age 73.1±8.3 years; 175 men) with lesions 230 limbs treated Zilver PTX DCS having duplex surveillance endovascular procedures. Mean lesion length 16.4±9.8 cm (range 2–40); there were 104 (45.2%) total occlusions 68...
ObjectiveFor thoracic endovascular aortic repair of the arch, branched and fenestrated endografts are available with different limitations regarding anatomy extent pathology. Comparisons lacking in literature. The aim this study was to compare results 2 currently commercially devices for repair.MethodsIn a retrospective, multicenter cohort study, consecutive patient series treated or arch pathologies assessed. Baseline characteristics, procedural repair, outcome were analyzed. Furthermore,...
Objective No studies have demonstrated the real-world efficacy of antifibrotics for progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (PF-ILD). Therefore, we evaluated in patients with PF-ILD. Methods We retrospectively reviewed medical records ILD from January 2012 to July 2021. Patients were diagnosed PF-ILD if they had ≥10% fibrosis on high-resolution CT (HRCT) and a relative forced vital capacity (FVC) decline either or >5% <10% clinical deterioration progression HRCT during...
Introduction Type II endoleak (EL) is frequently seen after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic (AAA) and often considered responsible sac enlargement if it persists. In order to reduce type EL consequent enlargement, pre-emptive embolisation of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA), which a main source persistent EL, has been introduced in many vascular centres. At present, there lack robust evidence support efficacy IMA on reduction with subsequent shrinkage. Method...
Aortic calcification in the tunica media is correlated with aortic stiffness, elastin degradation, and wall shear stress. The study aim was to determine if calcifications influence disease progression patients acute type A dissection (ATAAD). We retrospectively reviewed a total of 103 consecutive who had undergone surgery for ATAAD at our institution between January 2009 December 2019. Of these, 85 preoperatively plain computed tomography angiography (CTA) evaluation their were included....
Background Management of abdominal branches associated with Stanford type B aortic dissection is controversial without definite criteria for therapy after thoracic endovascular repair (TEVAR). This in part due to lack data on natural history related branch vessels and their relationship the flap, true lumen, false lumen. Purpose To investigate TEVAR between renal artery anatomy volume as a surrogate measure perfusion. Materials Methods study included patients who underwent complicated from...
Purpose To assess skin perfusion pressure (SPP) changes after endovascular treatment (EVT) of patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) and to explore preoperative factors that affect SPP changes. Materials Methods This prospective, multicenter study recruited 147 (mean age 74 years; 99 men) ischemic wounds at 6 vascular centers in Japan between July 2017 December 2018. Over half the (92, 63%) were diabetic, 76 (52%) required dialysis. Sixty-four (43%) had WIfI (wound, ischemia,...
