Technical improvements in carotid revascularization based on the mechanism of procedural stroke.
In conclusion, this review provides an overview of the pathophysiological mechanism of stroke following carotid revascularization (both CAS and CEA) and of the technical improvements that have contributed to reducing this stroke risk. PMID: 30827087 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Mitral valve repair and bioprosthetic replacement without postoperative anticoagulation does not increase the risk of stroke or mortality ADULT CARDIAC
CONCLUSIONS Despite current guidelines recommending postoperative anticoagulation following MVRR or bioprosthetic replacement, the avoidance of warfarin does not increase perioperative complications and has no impact on intermediate survival. Accordingly, a prospective randomized study to adjudicate the role of extended warfarin thromboprophylaxis in mitral valve surgery is warranted.

Outcome of Revascularizing the Left Subclavian Artery via Carotid-Subclavian Bypass
Conclusion Carotid-subclavian bypass surgery is associated with very low risk of death, stroke, or any nerve palsy. Lateral access to the left subclavian artery reduces the risk of phrenic nerve injury.

Early mid-term results of the first 103 cases of multilayer flow modulator stent done under indication for use in the management of thoracoabdominal aortic pathology from the independent global MFM registry.
Conclusion: Increasing sac volume, thrombus or diameter size was not associated with rupture. MFM implantation instigates a process of aortic remodeling involving initial thrombus deposition, which slows between six and twelve months. This Global MFM Registry data has demonstrated the proof of concept of this disruptive technology. PMID: 24356043 [PubMed - in process]

Hybrid Operation for Type B Aortic Dissection Involving Distal Aortic Arch
ConclusionsHybrid operation for Type B aortic dissection involving the distal aortic arch appears safe and effective at mid‐term follow‐up and may extend the application of endovascular repair in the treatment of this pathology.

The frozen elephant trunk technique for acute type A aortic dissection: results from 15 years of experience AORTIC SURGERY
CONCLUSIONS The FET technique results in excellent aortic remodelling of the downstream aorta and can improve the long-term outcomes for AAAD.

Systematic review of outcomes of combined proximal stent grafting with distal bare stenting for management of aortic dissection
Conclusions: Combined proximal stent grafting with distal bare stenting for management of aortic dissection appears to be a reasonable approach for type B aortic dissection, clearly improved true-lumen perfusion and diameter although failing to suppress false-lumen patency completely. Contemporary information on this approach is mainly provided by small series with a wide range of results.

TEVAR for Symptomatic Stanford B Dissection: A Systematic Review of 30-Day Mortality and Morbidity.
Conclusion Mortality and morbidity rates for TEVAR seemed to have increased over the past 16 years despite improved technology and surgical technique. This may be explained by the increasing liberal use of TEVAR intervention and quite possibly better reporting. The current data are highly heterogenous making it difficult for solid conclusions to be drawn. The only way forward is through better data registries and well-designed clinical trials.
