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

Custom-Made Candy-Plug for Distal False Lumen Occlusion in Aortic Dissection: International Experience
CONCLUSION: This international CP technique experience confirmed its feasibility and low mortality and morbidity. Aortic remodelling and false lumen thrombosis rates were high and support the concept of distal FL occlusion in AD using the CP technique.PMID:36958480 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2023.03.020

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.

Endovascular Thrombectomy for Acute Arterial Mesenteric Ischaemia: No Benefit of Mechanical Over Manual Thrombus Aspiration
Early vessel recanalisation is the cornerstone of treatment of acute arterial mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) and can be achieved by either percutaneous endovascular techniques or open repair. Depending on the mechanism of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion, endovascular techniques include intra-arterial thrombolysis, thrombus aspiration, or stenting. Endovascular thrombus aspiration has been shown to be beneficial for cerebral stroke, lower limb ischaemia, and myocardial infarction. Regarding AMI, endovascular thrombus aspiration has only been evaluated in small series,1 and SMA thrombus aspiration methods (manual or m...

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

A Novel Shaggy Aorta Scoring System to Predict Embolic Complications Following Thoracic Endovascular Aneurysm Repair.
CONCLUSIONS: This shaggy score is a useful method to predict post-operative embolic complications following TEVAR. Because the risk of embolic complications was relatively high in patients with a high shaggy score, the indication for TEVAR in such patients should be considered carefully.

Haemodynamics of Different Configurations of a Left Subclavian Artery Stent Graft for Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair.
CONCLUSION: Arterial haemodynamic characteristics are affected by LSA branched stent graft configurations, with pressure drops and energy losses likely to be clinically insignificant. The length of the stent graft protrusion into the aortic lumen generated the largest haemodynamic variations in the aortic system. Protrusions up to 5 mm have smaller risk of potential thrombus generation. Conversely, larger protrusions into the aortic lumen showed more disturbed haemodynamics, suggesting a greater risk of potential thrombus formation, which may be clinically important over time.

Hypertension, Acute Stent Thrombosis, and Paraplegia 6  Months after Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair for Blunt Thoracic Aortic Injury in a 22-Year-Old Patient
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is a less invasive option for managing traumatic injuries of the descending aorta in polytraumatized patients. Concerns arise when treating young patients with TEVAR. A 22-year-old male was admitted to the emergency department following a high-impact road traffic collision. Whole-body computed tomography (CT) scan documented multiple injuries, including rupture of descending thoracic aorta just below the isthmus. There was no evidence of paraplegia or stroke.

Combined brachial embolectomy and stent graft endovascular exclusion in the treatment of acute arm ischemia due to subclavian artery aneurysms thrombosis or distal embolization.
CONCLUSION: Endovascular repair is a less invasive alternative to open repair especially in high risk patients. long term results must still be confirmed in further studies. KEY WORDS: Arm ischemia, Endovascular treatment, Subclavian aneurysm. PMID: 27807319 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Late Retrograde Migration of a Left Subclavian Artery Chimney Stent-Graft Into the Innominate Artery
Conclusion: Migration of the proximal end of an overly long chimney graft that moved freely in the aortic arch exposed the patient to a high risk of stroke and death. Because of the high-risk situation, open repair under circulatory arrest was elected to remove the proximal end of the chimney graft, with no major complications.

Contemporary Management of Type B Aortic Dissection in the Endovascular Era.
Authors: Bannazadeh M, Tadros RO, McKinsey J, Chander R, Marin ML, Faries PL Abstract Aortic dissection (AD) is one of the most common catastrophic pathologies affecting the aorta. Anatomic classification is based on the origin of entry tear and its extension. Type A dissections originate in the ascending aorta, whereas the entry tear in Type B dissections starts distal to the left subclavian artery. The patients with aortic dissection who manifest complications such as rupture, malperfusion, aneurysmal degeneration, and intractable pain are classified as complicated AD. Risk factors for developing aortic dissectio...

Long-term Outcome After EndoVAC Hybrid Repair of Infected Vascular Reconstructions.
CONCLUSION: The EndoVAC technique is an alternative, less invasive, option for treatment of infected vascular reconstructions in selected cases, when neither traditional radical surgery, nor conservative simple negative pressure wound therapy are considered feasible or safe. The exact indications for this alternative hybrid treatment need to be established. PMID: 26944600 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
