Congenital absence of the inferior vena cava (AIVC) is a rare malformation which may be associated with an increased risk for deep vein thrombosis (DVT). However, role thrombophilia in AIVC and DVT unknown. Between 1982 2013 41 patients (12 female, 29 male, mean age 28 S.D. 11 years) were detected at University Düsseldorf, Germany, AIVC. Based on medical history, clinical examination, imaging coagulation studies, we performed this collective characterisation. Extensive literature research...
Acute aortic dissection type A (AADA) is associated with high perioperative morbidity and mortality. novel non-covered hybrid prosthesis (Ascyrus Medical Dissection Stent (AMDS) Hybrid Prosthesis, Cryolife/Jotec, Hechingen, Germany) can be easily implanted to stabilize the true lumen (TL), improve remodeling, preserve organ perfusion. Although developed for implantation in zone 0, occasionally, partial replacement of arch further distal AMDS may appear favorable. Implantation anastomosis...
Visceral artery aneurysms (VAAs) are rare but have a high mortality rate in cases of rupture, especially for pancreaticoduodenal (PDAAs). A hybrid approach is presented challenging case with inferior PDAA (iPDAA) concomitant coeliac (CA) occlusion and variant arterial supply to the liver. 61 year old patient complained postprandial pain associated elevated liver enzymes impaired hepatic synthesis capacity. The left originated from an occluded CA, whereas right directly superior mesenteric...
This study analyzed the patient outcomes following endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) for infrarenal pathologies with very narrow bifurcations using AFX stent graft.The data was retrieved from archived medical records of 35 patients treated abdominal (AAA) (48.6%) or penetrating ulcer (PAU) (51.4%) bifurcation between January 2013 and May 2020. Patient survival, freedom endoleak (EL), limb occlusion were estimated applying Kaplan-Meier method.The mean follow-up time 20.4 ± 22.8...
Objective: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for type B dissection (TBAD) aims to induce false lumen (FL) thrombosis by sealing intimal tears between the true (TL) and FL, blocking inflow into FL. Incomplete of FL is correlated with poor clinical outcome. We hypothesize that number major minor branches arising from affects patency may negatively influence TEVAR induced thrombosis. Methods: Computed tomography (CT)-scans 89 patients diagnosed TBAD [best medical treatment (BMT) n =...
Purpose . To report the effectiveness of left renal artery (LRA) occlusion using Amplatzer Vascular Plug (AVP) II as treatment for a high-flow arteriovenous fistula (RAVF) with multiple vein aneurysms (RVA) to prevent aneurysm rupture and cardiac decompensation. Case Report A 59-year-old female suffering from post-traumatic RAVF presented tachycardia increased output (CO). Doppler ultrasonography computed tomography (CT) scan revealed RVAs unilateral critically reduced kidney function....
Despite the widespread use of branched (bEVAR) and fenestrated endovascular aortic repair (fEVAR) for complex pathologies, there are no reliable recommendations regarding postsurgery antiplatelet therapy. We therefore evaluated outcome single (SAPT) dual therapy (DAPT) following fEVAR bEVAR. A total 63 patients from two German centers treated pathologies were included in this retrospective study. Patient data computed tomography angiograms analyzed. Kaplan-Meier analyses overall survival...
Background: A ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) is life-threatening.The mortality high and emergency surgery vital.Endovascular (ER) open surgical repair (OR) are alternative approaches.Although ER considered as first-line treatment, there scenarios which still require OR.We report a single-centre experience for rAAA treated by OR.Methods: Medical records from patients with 1 January 2005 through 31 December 2016 were screened.We defined retro-or intraperitoneal haemorrhage...
Traumatische Gefäßverletzungen sind selten, können jedoch zu erheblicher Morbidität und Mortalität führen mit den Leitsymptomen Blutung und/oder Organ- oder Extremitätenischämie. Ursachen sind: penetrierendes Trauma überwiegend in Konfliktgebieten, stumpfe Verletzungen durch Verkehrsunfälle Stürze iatrogene Schädigungen. Neben endovaskulären Verfahren konventionell offen-operative Versorgungsansätze weiterhin eine effektive Therapieoption.
Purpose: The Medyria TrackCath Catheter (MedTCC) is an innovative, thermal convection–based blood flow velocity (BFV) tracking catheter that may be used during complex aortic endovascular procedures for identification and catheterization of target orifices. ACCESS Trial analyzes the safety performance MedTCC targeted vessel to generally evaluate feasibility BFV. Materials Methods: We performed a first-in-human, proof-of-concept, prospective single-arm multicenter clinical trial between March...
Laser-fenestrated thoracic endovascular aortic repair (LfTEVAR) in the arch with covering of left subclavian artery (LSA) orifice is challenging. To optimize fenestration, so-called squid-capture technique has been introduced. We present here a modification to that may help improve time-efficiency and safety.During originally proposed maneuver, stent-graft deployed preset snare wire loop, which used pull stent graft toward penetration device during in-situ fenestration. In preparation,...
Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) is the method of choice for most abdominal aneurysm (AAA) patients requiring intervention. However, chronic neck dilatation (AND) following EVAR progressively weakens structural seal between vessel and endograft compromises long-term results therapy. This experimental ex vivo study seeks to investigate mechanisms AND.Porcine aortas (n=20) were harvested from slaughterhouse pigs connected a mock circulation. A commercially available was implanted (n=10) or...
