A Novel Shaggy Aorta Scoring System to Predict Embolic Complications Following Thoracic Endovascular Aneurysm Repair.
CONCLUSIONS: This shaggy score is a useful method to predict post-operative embolic complications following TEVAR. Because the risk of embolic complications was relatively high in patients with a high shaggy score, the indication for TEVAR in such patients should be considered carefully.

Carotid endarterectomy using a flow-reversal technique in the acute period: a novel approach that may reduce intraoperative cerebral events
Lesion manipulation during internal carotid artery (ICA) surgical dissection is the most crucial stage of carotid endarterectomy (CEA); a friable part of the carotid plaque or a thrombus may detach from the arterial wall leading to cerebral embolism. Proximal protection devices used in carotid stenting (CAS) reverse the blood flow to the brain eliminating, at least after their deployment, the chance of cerebral embolism. Based on the working principle of these devices, we propose a new approach to CEA making use of a flow-reversal technique and we report its successful application in 2 high risk patient with a soft and fri...

A New Aortic Arch Inclusion Technique With Frozen Elephant Trunk for Type A Aortic Dissection
Conclusions: The aortic arch inclusion technique with FET provides a safe alternative for TAAD treatment, with satisfactory operative results. Short-term follow-up results are encouraging, and long-term outcomes need further evaluation.

Surgical thromboendarterectomy for free-floating thrombus associated with cervical carotid artery dissection: A case report
Free-floating thrombus (FFT) of the cervical carotid artery is a rare but critical condition leading to stroke. The most common underlying pathology is atherosclerotic plaque; non-atherosclerotic pathologies are much rarer. Here we report a case of FFT associated with cervical carotid artery dissection that was successfully treated by surgical thromboendarterectomy.

Flow dynamics, false lumens and implications for endografting
The complications of endovascular stenting for type B aortic dissections are well-described and include paralysis from spinal cord ischemia, retrograde dissection, stroke, and access site complications. Owing to the inherent risk associated with this procedure, current practice is to withhold endovascular therapy unless the risk-benefit balance is in favor of intervention, such as with acute malperfusion or aneurysmal degeneration. Emphasis is placed on coverage of the entry tear, which has been advocated theoretically as the primary method to restore normal aortic hemodynamics and induce false lumen thrombosis, despite no...

Forgetting “routine” deep venous thrombosis and stroke during COVID-19 is a parallel pandemic that will be costly if ignored
The current COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a huge strategic and clinical change within the UK National Health Service (NHS) to ensure that it can cope with the surge in demand of respiratory patients. However, when attention is acutely shifted, routine care will suffer and that could be deadly for some and enormously expensive for the NHS in the long term. Fig, A, shows the increasing public interest over time relating to COVID-19 search terms in the Google Trends health category for the United Kingdom (UK) over the last 30  days.

Antimalarial and cytotoxic drugs on COVID-19 and the cardiovascular burden: Literature review and lessons to be learned.
DISCUSSION: There is no convincing clinical evidence of chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine with or without azithromycin, and remdesivir use in COVID-19. As evidence of systemic inflammation is rapidly unfolding, there is a dire need to maximize our resources to find the best possible solutions to the current crisis while conclusive evidence from clinical trials emerges.

A giant floating thrombus in the ascending aorta: a case report
A floating thrombus in an ascending aorta with normal morphology is very rare, but when it does occur, it may induce a systemic embolism or fatal stroke. The pathophysiological mechanisms of aortic mural throm...

Intravenous Recombinant Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator Thrombolysis for Acute Central Retinal Artery Occlusion
Discussion: This meta-analysis indicated that intravenous rt-PA thrombolysis could be an effective and safe strategy for the management of CRAO. However, a more detailed large-scale clinical trial is warranted to strengthen the evidence-based therapeutic guidance.

Effect of occult malignancy on femoropopliteal bypass graft thrombosis
The presence of cancer increases arterial thromboembolic events, specifically myocardial infarction and stroke, before a formal diagnosis of cancer. To the best of our knowledge, this increase in thrombotic risk has not been studied in patients with lower extremity bypass grafts. In the present study, we aimed to determine the effect of occult cancer on femoropopliteal bypass patency.
