Contemporary management and outcomes of blunt thoracic aortic injury: A multicenter retrospective study
CONCLUSION: Failures and aortic-related mortality of NOM following BTAI Society of Vascular Surgery Grade 1 to 3 injuries are rare. TEVAR seems independently protective against aortic-related mortality. Early complications of TEVAR have decreased relative to previous reports. Prospective long-term follow-up data are required to better refine indications for intervention. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV.

Endovascular Repair with Chimney Technique for Juxtarenal Aortic Aneurysm: A Single Center Experience.
CONCLUSION: Ch-EVAR can be used to treat JRAAs with suitable anatomical conditions. However, complications of type I endoleak were not uncommon, and, therefore, further studies are required to prove its efficiency for JRAAs. PMID: 25631457 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Safety, Clinical Outcome, and Fracture Rate of Femoropopliteal Stenting Using a 4F Compatible Delivery System.
CONCLUSION: Femoropopliteal stenting using a 4F compatible delivery system can be accomplished with a low complication rate, acceptable fracture rate, and with similar 12 month patency and revascularization rates as their 6F counterparts. PMID: 25579877 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Investigation of the surgical complications during thoracic endovascular aortic repair: experiences with 148 consecutive cases treated at a single institution in Japan
Conclusions The use of a debranching technique and sternotomy approach in patients with extensive atherosclerotic changes of the aortic arch were risk factors for major complications of TEVAR. Such patients may benefit from open surgery rather than TEVAR.

Balloon tamponade repair after inadvertent subclavian artery catheterization.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with inadvertent subclavian artery catheterization, balloon tamponade is an effective first step in management, with primary technical success approaching 100% in cases of single lumen injury. It appears less effective in patients with double lumen injury. However, the ease of transition from balloon tamponade to stent placement supports an initial attempt at hemostasis with tamponade prior to placement of a permanent stent.

Iatrogenesis imperfecta: stroke caused by accidental carotid artery catheterization.
CONCLUSION:: Even with ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization, it is essential to remain vigilant for the early detection of vascular complications. Clinical suspicion combined with diagnostic modalities such as chest radiograph, transduction and manometry can increase the detection rates. PMID: 25041919 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Medical management of abdominal aortic aneurysms.
Abstract Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are the most common arterial aneurysms. Endovascular or open surgical aneurysm repair is indicated in patients with large AAA ≥ 5.5 cm in diameter as this prevents aneurysm rupture. The presence even of small AAAs not in need of immediate repair is associated with a very high cardiovascular risk including myocardial infarction, stroke or cardiovascular death. This risk by far exceeds the risk of aneurysm rupture. These patients therefore should be considered as high-risk patients and receive optimal medical treatment and life-style modificiation of their cardiovascular r...

Early and late mortality and morbidity of elective infrarenal aortic aneurysm repair.
CONCLUSION: The early and late mortality was similar after open and endovascular AAA repair. Postoperative complications did not show significant difference between the two groups. We found significant difference in the use of blood products, the prevalence of incisional hernias and the number of reinterventions. According to our results, stent graft implantation is mainly recommended in high risk patients and open aortic repair still has a role in the low-moderate operative risk group.

A 20-Year Experience With Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair
We report our 20-year experience with this therapy. Methods: Four hundred twenty patients (mean age = 69.0 years; 54% male) underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair (1993–2013), predominantly for fusiform aneurysm (n = 144), saccular aneurysm (n = 94), acute (n = 64) or chronic (n = 36) dissection, or traumatic injury (n = 39). Rupture was present in 80 patients (19.1%). Most patients (78.3%) were at high risk for open repair. Mean aortic diameter was 5.5 cm. Extent of repair included arch in 218 patients, total descending aorta in 193 patients, and thoracoabdominal aorta in 35 patients. Results: Thirty-day mortalit...

Embolic complications after endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms
Conclusions The presence of a shaggy aorta and a history of smoking are independent predictors of embolic complications associated with EVAR.

Open versus endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm: Incidence of cardiovascular events in 632 patients in a department of defense cohort over 6-year follow-up.
CONCLUSION: EVAR was associated with lower 30-day mortality rates; however, this benefit was not sustained in longer-term follow-up. There is no difference in the rates of stroke, myocardial infarction, or cardiac arrhythmia at 30 days or in long-term follow-up. PMID: 25134851 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Upper extremity access for fenestrated endovascular aortic aneurysm repair is not associated with increased morbidity
Fenestrated endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (FEVAR) is an alternative to open repair in patients with complex abdominal aortic aneurysms who are neither fit nor suitable for standard open or endovascular repair. Chimney and snorkel grafts are other endovascular alternatives but frequently require bilateral upper extremity access that has been associated with a 3% to 10% risk of stroke. However, upper extremity access is also frequently required for FEVAR because of the caudal orientation of the visceral vessels.

Pathology Specific Early Outcome after Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair
Conclusions: There was no difference in the incidence of in-hospital mortality, stroke, and spinal cord ischaemia between aneurysm and dissection. The higher rate of aortic related death in the dissection group may indicate the need to refine the clinical management of these patients, including procedural planning, endograft design, and operative technique.
