Assessment of Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair Using Relay Proximal Scallop: Results of a French Prospective Multicentre Study
CONCLUSION: One year outcomes showed that the Relay proximal scallop stent graft is an acceptable answer to aortic thoracic disease to deal with short proximal landing zones.PMID:37567339 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2023.08.002

Use of Secondary Iliac Branch Devices after Previous Endovascular Abdominal and Thoraco-Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair < sup > † < /sup >
CONCLUSION: Secondary IBD after EVAR is a safe and effective procedure with high technical success and low complication rates. The technique of choice to revascularise the IIA seems to not affect early and follow up results. Long term durability of IBD repair is acceptable with low rates of IIA re-interventions.PMID:36707020 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2023.01.033

Activated Clotting Time Guided Heparinisation During Open Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair (ACTION-1) - Rationale and Design of a Randomised Trial
Unfractionated heparin has been used by vascular surgeons worldwide for more than 70 years during non-cardiac arterial procedures (NCAP) to prevent clot formation and reduce thromboembolic complications (TEC), for example, arterial thrombosis, peripheral emboli, myocardial infarction, colonic ischaemia, deep venous thrombosis, and stroke.1,2 In this Research Letter, shortcomings and high variation in current intra-operative heparin use, the need for scientific evidence, and the design of a randomised controlled trial (RCT) are discussed.

Extent of mural thrombus is not associated with increased 5-year mortality following elective AAA repair
CONCLUSIONS: In our experience, the extent of mural thrombus in AAA does not influence long-term survival after elective repair. AAA repair may provide protection against circulating components of mural thrombus which have the potential to promote atherosclerotic-related adverse events. Patients with renal insufficiency and larger AAA have increased risk of mortality 5 years after elective repair.PMID:35331063 | DOI:10.1177/17085381211063282
