Association of Iso-Osmolar vs Low-Osmolar Contrast Media With Major Adverse Renal or Cardiovascular Events in Patients at High Risk for Acute Kidney Injury Undergoing Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
CONCLUSIONS: Use of IOCM vs LOCM in patients at high risk of AKI undergoing EVAR procedures was associated with a lower risk of MARCE. As prevention of AKI or cardiovascular events after EVAR procedures may lead to reduced morbidity and mortality, this finding may have important clinical implications and should be confirmed through randomized controlled clinical studies.PMID:34280892

Cardiac risk stratification in patients undergoing endovascular aortic repair.
Authors: Biagi P, de Donato G, Setacci C Abstract Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is the preferred first treatment option in case of patients with advanced age and/or fit anatomy owing to shorter length of in hospital staying, less complications or laparotomy-related re- interventions, and lower initial costs. Although it is a less-invasive intervention, EVAR entails a risk similar to that of open aortic procedures for medical comorbidities, and a perioperative clinical evaluation is mandatory to minimize the early and late cardiovascular risk. In this brief review the determi...

Intervention Associated Acute Kidney Injury and Long-Term Cardiovascular Outcomes
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) has been associated with all-cause short- and long-term mortality. However, its association with cardiovascular (CV) events remains unclear. We sought to investigate this in patients undergoing open (OAR) or endovascular (EVAR) abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, as they are likely to develop both AKI and CV morbidity. A meta-analysis was subsequently performed to confirm this in other CV-interventions. Methods: AKI-incidence was assessed in a multicentre-cohort of 1,068 patients undergoing EVAR (947 individuals) or OAR electively using the ‘Acute Kidney Injury Network' criteria. A com...

The “Open” Chimney Graft Technique for Juxtarenal Aortic Aneurysms with Discrepant Renal Arteries
Conclusions: OCh-EVAR is a straightforward technique that can be employed in selected cases of JRAA, avoiding the more complex and expensive fenestrated EVAR.
