PURPOSE: To determine the imaging characteristics of infected aortic aneurysms. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Review records patients with surgical and/or microbiologic proof aneurysm obtained over a 25-year period revealed 31 aneurysms in 29 patients. This study included 21 men and eight women (mean age, 70 years). One radiologist reviewed 28 computed tomographic (CT) studies (22 underwent CT once three twice), 12 arteriograms (12 arteriography once), nuclear medicine (six one patient magnetic...
The Kidney Disease Outcomes and Quality Initiative (K/DOQI) has developed guidelines from available data suggesting that arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) be performed in the majority of patients. Patient demographics were not included nor suggested their recommendations. purpose this study is to analyze outcomes elderly patients, age greater than 70, undergoing first-time permanent access surgery.A retrospective review consecutive patients new, first time procedures January 2005 through December...
To present midterm outcomes of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) with laser fenestration to revascularize the left subclavian artery (LSA) as an alternative debranching.Six symptomatic patients (3 men; mean age 50 years) underwent emergent TEVAR LSA revascularization via graft fenestration. Three had large aneurysms (2 secondary chronic dissection); 1 patient acute type B dissection, and 2 intramural hematomas. Emergent was carried out deployment a Dacron endograft over orifice...
ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a composite device design (covered stent graft bare metal stent) for treatment patients with acute, complicated type B aortic dissection (TBAD) presenting rupture and/or branch vessel malperfusion.MethodsIn this prospective, nonrandomized, multicenter study, 73 (65.8% male; mean age, 60.7 years) TBAD were enrolled between August 2012 January 2015 to receive Zenith Dissection Endovascular System (William Cook Europe, Aps, Bjaeverskov,...
