Composite Dialysis, Paralysis, Stroke, or Mortality After Endovascular Aortic Interventions in the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative
Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm life-altering events, which include a combination of permanent dialysis, permanent spinal cord ischemia, stroke, and/or death, have devastating effects after complex endovascular repair. However, the occurrence of these life-altering events after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has not been studied. Therefore, we examined the effects of procedural and anatomic characteristics on a composite outcome of postoperative dialysis, stroke, paralysis, and/or mortality after any endovascular aortic repair.

Early Outcomes After Branched and Fenestrated Endovascular Aortic Repair in Octogenarians.
CONCLUSIONS: Complex endovascular repair in octogenarians has higher early all cause mortality compared with non-octogenarians. Rupture and higher ASA class of ≥4 are independent predictors for early mortality. Age ≥80 years was found to be an independent predictor for higher early all cause mortality.

Midterm Outcomes of a Prospective, Nonrandomized Study to Evaluate Endovascular Repair of Complex Aortic Aneurysms Using Fenestrated-Branched Endografts
Conclusion: FB-EVAR is safe and effective for treatment of PRA and TAAAs with low rate of aortic-related mortality and aneurysm rupture on midterm follow-up.

Risk factors Associated with Long Term Mortality and Complications Following Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
To determine the risk factors associated with late mortality or complications (Thoracoabdominal aortic Aneurysm Life-altering Events (TALE): composite of mortality, permanent paraplegia, permanent dialysis, and stroke) in patients undergoing endovascular or open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) repair.

Extent of mural thrombus is not associated with increased 5-year mortality following elective AAA repair
CONCLUSIONS: In our experience, the extent of mural thrombus in AAA does not influence long-term survival after elective repair. AAA repair may provide protection against circulating components of mural thrombus which have the potential to promote atherosclerotic-related adverse events. Patients with renal insufficiency and larger AAA have increased risk of mortality 5 years after elective repair.PMID:35331063 | DOI:10.1177/17085381211063282

Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Physician Modified Endografts for Treatment of Thoraco-Abdominal and Complex Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
CONCLUSION: Physician modified fenestrated or branched grafts for endovascular aortic repair seems feasible and safe in the short-term follow-up. However, the quality of the available data is low which highlights the need for better and more accurate data regarding this technique.PMID:35483575 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2022.04.015
