Beta Blockers are Associated with Decreased 30-Day Postoperative Stroke Risk Following Both Carotid Stenting and Endarterectomy in Patients with Hypertension
Stroke is a significant complication associated with both carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS). Hypertension is a strong risk factor for development of carotid stenosis and is present in over 80% of patients undergoing carotid revascularization. Antihypertensive therapy is associated with reduced stroke risk in patients with carotid artery stenosis. Our aim was to determine whether antihypertensive medication regimens can impact stroke risk in patients following carotid revascularization.

Surgical Management of Pediatric renin-mediated Hypertension seCONDARY TO RENAL ARTERY OCCLUSIVE DISEASE AND ABDOMINAL AORTIC COARCTATION
Renovascular hypertension (RVH) associated with renal artery and abdominal aortic narrowings is the third most common cause of pediatric hypertension. Untreated children may experience major cardiopulmonary complications, stroke, renal failure and death. The impetus of this study was to describe the increasingly complex surgical practice for such patients with an emphasis on anatomic phenotype and contemporary outcomes following surgical management, as a means of identifying those factors responsible for persistent or recurrent hypertension necessitating reoperation.

Endovascular Versus Open Surgical Intervention in Patients with Takayasu's Arteritis: A Meta-analysis
Although medical treatment has advanced, surgical treatment is needed to control symptoms of Takayasu's arteritis (TA), such as angina, stroke, hypertension, or claudication. Endovascular or open surgical intervention is performed; however, there are few comparative studies on these methods. This meta-analysis and systematic review aimed to examine the outcome of surgical treatment of TA.

IF03. Preoperative Hypertension Is Associated With Atherosclerotic Plaque Vulnerability in Patients Undergoing Carotid Endarterectomy
Elevated blood pressure is associated with primary manifestations of cerebrovascular disease, such as stroke and myocardial infarction. Moreover, untreated hypertension contributes to atherosclerotic disease progression and is a risk factor for periprocedural complications in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy (CEA). It is currently unknown how hypertension influences this underlying culprit of cerebrovascular disease, namely, the atherosclerotic plaque. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine whether blood pressure influences vulnerable plaque characteristics in patients undergoing CEA.

Intraoperative cone beam computed tomography-guided endovascular recanalization of an interrupted aorta
We report a case of real-time image-guided endovascular repair to highlight the value of preprocedural planning and intraprocedural cone beam computed tomography. Two-dimensional fluoroscopy enhanced with three-dimensional landmarks from cone beam computed tomography was used to direct a Nykanen radiofrequency wire (Baylis Medical, Montreal, Quebec, Canada) through the interruption, avoiding critical adjacent structures.

Asymptomatic carotid stenosis is associated with cognitive  impairment
Cerebrovascular risk factors (eg, hypertension, coronary artery disease) and stroke can lead to vascular cognitive impairment. The Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis and Cognitive Function study evaluated the isolated impact of asymptomatic carotid stenosis (no prior ipsilateral or contralateral stroke or transient ischemic attack) on cognitive function. Cerebrovascular hemodynamic and carotid plaque characteristics were analyzed to elucidate potential mechanisms affecting cognition.

Predictors of Restenosis Following Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting
Restenosis after carotid angioplasty is associated with ipsilateral stroke occurrence. Hypertension, angioplasty without stent, and impaired vasoreactivity identify patients at high risk of restenosis and potentially could help select patients for follow-up ultrasound imaging.

Regional Anesthesia is Associated With Decreased Postoperative Hypertension in Patients Undergoing Eversion Carotid Endarterectomy
Eversion carotid endarterectomy (eCEA) has been effective in reducing stroke risk in patients with carotid artery stenosis. Recent literature shows that patients who undergo eCEA are at risk for development of postoperative hypertension requiring intravenous (IV) antihypertensive medication. The purpose of this study was to assess whether the type of anesthesia (regional or general) has an impact on the incidence of postoperative hypertension requiring IV antihypertensive medication in the surgical intensive care unit (SICU) in patients undergoing eCEA.

The Long-Term Effects of the Type of Carotid Endarterectomy on Blood Pressure
Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) has been one of the most studied and scrutinized operative procedures in vascular surgery. Retrospective series and randomized trials have shown no difference in perioperative stroke and long-term restenosis between conventional patch angioplasty (cCEA) and eversion (eCEA). A number of authors have shown acute hemodynamic disturbances in the immediate postoperative period leading to a temporary hypertensive state. eCEA may increase the risk of postoperative hypertension due to the more extensive dissection of the carotid bulb.

Giant aneurysm of the abdominal aorta
A 79-year-old man with a history of smoking, hypertension, chronic pulmonary disease, and nondisabling stroke was admitted to the emergency department due to loss of consciousness and diffuse abdominal pain. At admission, the patient was vigil but hypotensive (90/60 mm Hg) and tachycardic (107 bpm). Physical examination revealed a tender, pulsatile mass occupying the entire abdomen (A). His hemoglobin level was 6.5 g/dL. Computed tomographic angiography revealed a giant infrarenal aortic aneurysm with a maximum transverse diameter of 256 mm (B and C). A small layer of blood was visible in the left retroperitoneal space. Co...
