Evolution of the covered endovascular reconstruction of the aortic bifurcation technique for complex aorto-iliac occlusive disease
CONCLUSIONS: Since its introduction in 2009, CERAB technique has grown as a safe and effective endovascular therapeutic option for aorto-iliac occlusive disease. Data from prospective multicenter registries with dedicated stent grafts and comparative trials are needed to validate the technique.PMID:37401818 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.23.12705-4 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery)

Comparison of De-Kay repair versus De Vega suture for functional tricuspid regurgitation: a preliminary experience
CONCLUSIONS: De Kay repair guarantees the same tricuspidal regurgitation reduction as compared with conventional De Vega early after surgery.PMID:37401819 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.23.12565-1 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery)

Open surgical techniques for the management of complex juxtarenal aortic occlusions
J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino). 2023 Aug;64(4):372-381. doi: 10.23736/S0021-9509.23.12697-8.ABSTRACTThe surgical management of aortic occlusive disease can be significantly complicated by the extension of disease, or occlusion, to the level of the renal arteries. The juxtarenal occlusion necessitates careful consideration of operative exposure, technique, and the method and extent of reconstruction. While endovascular techniques have revolutionized the management of occlusive disease of the distal aorta and iliacs, both the presence of bulky, eccentric or exophytic calcification and thrombus at the level of the renal arteries ...

Update of T-branch use from the US Aortic Research Consortium
J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino). 2023 Jun 30. doi: 10.23736/S0021-9509.23.12737-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAortic endograft evolution has altered our approach to treating patients with both standard and complex aortic disease. In particular, fenestrated and branched aortic endografts have allowed for the expansion of therapy to include those patients with extensive thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs). The fenestrations and branches allow for the aortic endografts to achieve a seal in the proximal and distal aspects of the aorto-iliac tree, to exclude the aneurysm, while maintaining perfusion to the renal and viscera...

Aortic dissection: results of the invasive treatment in France between 2012 and 2018 according to the French national database
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of acute AoD increased in France over the period of the study and was associated with stable postoperative early mortality. Early postoperative mortality is significantly reduced in high-volume centers.PMID:37382212 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.23.12570-5 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery)

Experience with inner branch off the shelf device for thoracoabdominal aneurysms
J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino). 2023 Jun 29. doi: 10.23736/S0021-9509.23.12695-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEndovascular treatment of complex aortic aneurysms (cAAA) including thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms is becoming more common. Most patients require custom made devices and until recently the off the shelf (OTS) options were limited. The aim of this manuscript was to describe a new inner branch OTS device and its clinical applications. A review of the current literature on the ENSIDE device from Artivion was performed and the authors' experience presented. The short outcomes of this particular OTS device are acceptab...

The influence of gender on 30-day adverse clinical outcomes in patients undergoing carotid surgery
CONCLUSIONS: Female gender is important predicting factor for stroke/TIA and all-cause mortality, both perioperative and during the first 30 days after carotid surgery.PMID:37335278 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.23.12633-4 (Source: The Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery)
