Effectiveness of endovascular versus open surgical repair for thoracic aortic aneurysm: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Early clinical outcomes including the 30-day mortality, stroke, renal failure, and pulmonary complications significantly favored the TEVAR. However, the mid-to-long-term re-intervention rate favored the OSR and long-term survival was inconsistent among the studies. The quality of evidence was very low. More studies with longer follow-ups are needed. The use of TEVAR should be decided by taking into account other factors including patient characteristics and preferences, cost, and surgeon expertise.PMID:34235903 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.21.11894-4

Outcomes of Open v. Endovascular Repair of Descending Thoracic and Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysms
CONCLUSIONS: Open repair of descending thoracic and thoracoabdominal aneurysms can achieve acceptable short-term outcomes with better intermediate-term outcomes than endovascular repair.PMID:34048754 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2021.04.100

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...

Prehabilitation Coming of Age: IMPLICATIONS FOR CARDIAC AND PULMONARY REHABILITATION
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 fitness, prehabilitati...

Progress in aorta and peripheral cardiovascular disease research
AbstractAlthough coronavirus disease 2019 seems to be the leading topic in research number of outstanding studies have been published in the field of aorta and peripheral vascular diseases likely affecting our clinical practice in the near future. This review article highlights key research on vascular diseases published in 2020. Some studies have shed light in the pathophysiology of aortic aneurysm and dissection suggesting a potential role for kinase inhibitors as new therapeutic options. A first proteogenomic study on fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) revealed a promising novel disease gene and provided proof-of-concept for...

Association of carotid ultrasonography with perioperative stroke after thoracic aortic aneurysm treatment: a retrospective study
ConclusionsLower EDV and higher RI of bilateral CCAs were significantly associated with perioperative stroke after TAA treatment. Thus, CUS findings may help predict the occurrence of perioperative stroke.

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
