Prehabilitation Coming of Age: IMPLICATIONS FOR CARDIAC AND PULMONARY REHABILITATION.
Abstract While cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation programs traditionally involve exercise therapy and risk management following an event (eg, myocardial infarction and stroke), or an intervention (eg, coronary artery bypass surgery and percutaneous coronary intervention), prehabilitation involves enhancing functional capacity and optimizing risk profile prior to a scheduled intervention. The concept of prehabilitation is based on the principle that patients with higher functional capabilities will better tolerate an intervention, and will have better pre- and post-surgical outcomes. In addition to improving fitn...

How Common are Aortic Aneurysms?
Discussion Aortic root dilatation or thoracic aortic aneurysm occurs in 6:100,000 individuals > 50 years of age. It is due to aging, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and smoking. Tertiary syphilis was a cause in the preantibiotic era. Pediatric aneurysms are very uncommon but the exact prevalence is different due to the various causes. Aneurysms are due to genetic disorders, congenital anomalies or post-surgical repair. In pediatric patients with sudden cardiac deaths, 5.4% are due to ruptured thoracic aortic aneurysms. Learning Point Some causes of pediatric aneurysms include: Familial thoracic aneurysm and dissect...

Complications of endo-vascular aortic repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm: A retrospective single-centre experience
CONCLUSION: EVAR showed a high technical success rate with no conversion to OAR. The most common complications were type II and type I endoleaks followed by graft limb occlusion. The 30-day mortality was 2.3% due to perioperative MI. Only one late stent-graft related mortality was registered due to rupture-EVAR.PMID:33850623 | PMC:PMC8039833 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2021.102219

Pre-sewn Multi-branched Aortic Graft and 3D-Printing Guidance for Crawford Extent II or III Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
Semin Thorac Cardiovasc Surg. 2021 May 7:S1043-0679(21)00194-5. doi: 10.1053/j.semtcvs.2021.03.046. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTReconstruction of the visceral and segmental arteries is a challenging part of open surgical repair of extensive thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA). For more efficient reconstruction of these branching vessels, a technique of using pre-hand-sewn multi-branched aortic graft (octopod technique) has been adopted with the aid of 3D-printing-guidance in latest cases. The octopod graft has been employed for the extent II or III TAAA repair, in which the commercially available two 4-branched aorti...

Long-term Use of Preoperative Beta-Blockers Is Associated With Reduced Postoperative Stroke After Thoracic Endovascular Aneurysm Repair
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has been established as the treatment of choice for a range of thoracic aortic pathologies. Beta-blockers represent a possible perioperative treatment option to improve TEVAR outcomes due to their role in management of aortic aneurysm, dissection, and Marfan syndrome. We investigated the effect of preoperative beta-blocker usage on outcomes of TEVAR using the Vascular Quality Initiative database.

The Potential Benefits and Costs of an Intensified Approach to Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Lowering in People with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
CONCLUSION: People with a small asymptomatic AAA are at high risk of MVE and PVE. This study provides evidence of the possible benefits and allowable expense for a cost effective intensive LDL-C lowering programme in this population.PMID:34507892 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2021.06.031

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.

Arterial Atherosclerosis: Vascular Surgery Interventions
Am Fam Physician. 2022 Jan 1;105(1):65-72.ABSTRACTAtherosclerotic vascular disease is a leading cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerotic stenosis of the internal carotid or intracranial arteries causes up to 15% of strokes. Peripheral artery disease affects up to one in five people in the United States who are 60 years and older and nearly one-half of those who are 85 years and older. Renal artery stenosis may affect up to 5% of people with isolated hypertension and up to 40% of people with other atherosclerotic diseases. All patients with atherosclerotic vascular disease should receive a comprehensive program of guidelin...
