Carotid artery stenting for stenosis after carotid artery replacement: An illustrative case report
CONCLUSION: Stenosis after cervical artery replacement can be safely treated with CAS. Inflation pressure and stent should be selected according to the pathology of the stenosis.PMID:36751444 | PMC:PMC9899451 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_700_2022 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)

Acute injury to the mouse carotid artery provokes a distinct healing response
Treatment of vascular stenosis with angioplasty results in acute vascular damage, which may lead to restenosis. Owing to the highly complex cellularity of blood vessels, the healing response following this damage is incompletely understood. To gain further insight into this process, scRNA-seq of mouse carotid tissue after wire injury was performed. Stages of acute inflammation, resolution and remodeling were recapitulated in these data. To identify cell types which give rise to neointima, analyses focused on smooth muscle cell and fibroblast populations, and included data integration with scRNA-seq data from myocardial inf...

Autologous pericardium could be a good option as patch material for sensitive patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy surgery to avoid legal consequences
We recently read the article titled “Patch angioplasty during carotid endarterectomy using different materials has similar clinical outcomes” by Liesker et al.1 We congratulate them for their largescale study results. Their results are consistent with a recently reported Cochrane database analysis.2 We know that no consensus has been reached regarding the best patch material to use for such patients. As a biologic patch material, bovine pericardial patches were found to be comparable in cost with the cost of other patch materials owing to their low risk of infection and advantages in terms of postoperative bleeding.

Novel modification of a branched arch endograft with a retrograde left common carotid branch for acute pseudoaneurysm post type A repair
CONCLUSION: An aortic arch inner branch design with an antegrade brachiocephalic branch but retrograde left common carotid and left subclavian branches was feasible and may prove particularly useful when there is limited space in the ascending aorta.PMID:36647802 | DOI:10.1177/17085381231153219 (Source: Vascular)

Nationwide outcome analysis of primary carotid endarterectomy in symptomatic patients depending on closure technique and patch type
CONCLUSIONS: There was an increased risk of ipsilateral stroke <30days in patients operated with primary closure compared to eversion-CEA and patch angioplasty. There was no difference between primary closure, different patch types or eversion after the perioperative phase.PMID:36603661 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2022.12.033 (Source: PubMed: Eur J Vasc Endovasc ...)

Abnormal foreshortening of a Flow Re-Direction Endoluminal Device caused by in-stent thrombosis immediately after deployment
In this study, we report a case of abnormal foreshortening of a Flow Re-Direction Endoluminal Device (FRED) caused by in-stent thrombosis immediately after its deployment. A 72-year-old woman had a large cavernous carotid aneurysm, which caused ptosis and diplopia. FRED deployment was planned, and dual antiplatelet therapy was initiated 2 weeks before the procedure. Under systemic heparinization, FRED was deployed with local compaction over the aneurysm orifice. Cone-beam computed tomography subsequently revealed slightly poor wall apposition at the proximal side. While the balloon catheter was prepared for angioplasty, th...
