Medtronic touts study data for thoracic aortic stent
Medtronic (NYSE:MDT) said that its thoracic stent graft for the treatment of a potentially deadly blunt-force chest injury performed well five years after implantation, according to a new study. The Rescue study of the long-term durability, safety, and efficacy of the Medtronic’s Valiant Captivia thoracic stent graft system for blunt thoracic aortic injury (BTAI) was presented at The Society of Thoracic Surgeons annual meeting in San Diego this week. It was the first five-year, industry-issued dataset ever reported for patients with aortic transections undergoing thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). BTAI is...

Successful treatment of unexpected complication during aortic stent-grafting: retrieval of broken stent-graft tip by coaxial technique.
Abstract Thoracic aortic endovascular repair (TEVAR) is increasingly preferred as a treatment of choice in thoracic aortic diseases. Intravascular foreign body is one of the TEVAR-related complications similar to the other endovascular operations. Here, to the our best knowledge for the first time in the English literature, this report presents an extremely rare complication of a broken and stuck tip part of aortic stent-graft in the intravascular space and successful removal by using the coaxial technique. Thoracic aortic endovascular repair (TEVAR) has been increasingly preferred as the treatment of choice in th...

Debranching-first and proximal arch replacement for an innominate artery aneurysm: a case study.
We describe the debranching-first technique and proximal arch replacement for a huge innominate artery aneurysm and discuss the surgical strategy for cannulation, perfusion and organ protection. PMID: 31203765 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Outcomes of Repair of Kommerell’s Diverticulum
ConclusionsOpen and endovascular approaches have a high success rate and low mortality risk. Selection of the specific type of intervention should be based on patient’s anatomy, additional needed procedures, and comorbid conditions.

Endovascular Repair of Ascending Aortic Disease in High-Risk Patients Yields Favorable Outcome
ConclusionsAscending aortic stent placement for ascending aortic disease is feasible and is associated with favorable aortic remodeling. Despite persistent perfusion to the false lumen in a subset of patients, there is minimal aortic dilation at short-term follow-up with excellent survival.

Total endovascular repair of the aortic arch: initial experience in the Netherlands
ConclusionsTotal endovascular aortic arch repair using the Relay Branch device is technically feasible and effective in excluding aortic arch pathology. The observed stroke rate in the initial experience, however, was considerable. Although appealing, this new lesser-invasive technique should be carefully introduced, and its progress thoroughly evaluated.

Optimising Aortic Endovascular Repair in Patients with Marfan Syndrome.
CONCLUSION: The specific protocol described in this study seems to optimise the results of endovascular aortic repair in MFS patients with significant aortic remodelling. PMID: 31865029 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Five Year Outcomes from the US Pivotal Trial of Valiant Captivia Stent Graft for Blunt Aortic Injury
ConclusionsThis multicenter clinical trial describes excellent 5-year outcomes and durable exclusion of blunt thoracic aortic injury using a novel stent graft system. TEVAR with this endograft appears to be a safe and effective treatment option for patients with BTAI.

Grade I traumatic aortic injury progression
This case highlights the importance of diagnosing Grade I aortic injuries after trauma. Although the prognosis for minimal aortic injury is typically quite good, the patient in this case suffered the unlikely complication of minimal intimal injury progression with resultant thromboembolism and massive stroke. Due to motion artifact and CT resolution limitations, the initial aortic injury was not detected. Thus, potentially life-saving measures such as serial CT monitoring of injury, blood pressure control, and endovascular repair were unable to be performed.

Total Arch Replacement with Concomitant Retrograde Stent Graft Deployment via Ministernotomy in Acute Aortic Dissection.
CONCLUSIONS: Retrograde TEVAR in combination with total arch replacement via an upper ministernotomy might be safe and effective in treating acute type A aortic dissection, with fairly low mortality and perioperative complications, and a very good rate of total false lumen thrombosis in midterm follow up.

Thoracic endovascular repair for retrograde acute type A aortic dissection as an alternative choice
ConclusionThoracic endovascular aortic repair could be a useful alternative surgical option for patients with retrograde acute type A aortic dissection with an entry in the descending aorta who are not suitable for conventional open surgery. Careful follow-up of such patients is mandatory.
