Hybrid and total endovascular repair of the aortic arch.
CONCLUSION: Repair of aortic arch pathology presents a formidable challenge for endovascular technology. Open aortic arch repair remains the standard in younger, fitter patients, but endovascular technology and experience continue to evolve with encouraging early outcomes and expanding indications.

Early outcomes of patients transferred with ruptured suprarenal aneurysm or dissection.
Conclusions Although the number of patients with rSRAD is low and those who are transferred alive are a self-selecting group, this study suggests that transfer of such patients to a specialist vascular centre is associated with acceptable mortality rates following emergency complex aortic repair.

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.

Hybrid aortic arch and frozen elephant trunk reconstruction: bridging the gap between conventional and total endovascular arch repair.
Authors: Bozso SJ, White A, Nagendran J, Moon MC, Chu MWA Abstract INTRODUCTION: Novel endovascular techniques hope to offer patients aortic arch repair with reduced morbidity compared to conventional arch surgery; however, current endovascular strategies remain challenged by the proximal seal zone, higher stroke rates, long-term durability and select anatomy. Hybrid arch repair offers patients a less invasive alternative that can treat more distal aorta than conventional arch repair yet still be performed via standard sternotomy. Areas Covered: This review will discuss the current evidence and future development o...

Thoracic aortic stentgraft implantations in Hungary from 2012 to 2016.
Abstract Thoracic aortic endograft implantation has become a widespread procedure in recent years, yet no report is available about Hungarian outcomes. Examination of our results is crucial to define further treatment strategies. Analysis of perioperative data from Hungarian thoracic endograft implantations based on the experience of 5 years is presented. Our retrospective, multicentric study analysed voluntarily reported data from all Hungarian institutions where thoracic endograft implantations are performed. Information was collected from every procedure performed in 5 years. Between 2012 and 2016, 131 thoracic...

The Impact of Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair on Long-Term Survival in Type B Aortic  Dissection
Conclusions The treatment of uncomplicated aTBAD with optimal medical therapy results in a high incidence of surgical intervention and poor long-term survival. At the index hospitalization, TEVAR may confer a survival advantage and serve as optimal therapy for complicated and uncomplicated aTBAD patients.

Rates of Spinal Cord Infarction After Repair of Aortic Aneurysm or Dissection Clinical Sciences
Background and Purpose—The rate of spinal cord infarction (SCI) after surgical or endovascular repair of an aortic aneurysm or dissection is unclear.Methods—Using administrative claims data, we identified adult patients discharged from nonfederal acute care hospitals in California, New York, and Florida who underwent surgical or endovascular repair of an aortic aneurysm or dissection between 2005 and 2013. Patients with SCI diagnosed before the aortic repair were excluded. Our primary outcome was an SCI during the index hospitalization for aortic repair. Descriptive statistics were used to estimate crude rates of SCI. ...

Endovascular treatment for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm.
CONCLUSIONS: The conclusions of this review are currently limited by the paucity of data. We found from the data available moderate-quality evidence suggesting there is no difference in 30-day mortality between eEVAR and open repair. Not enough information was provided for complications for us to make a well-informed conclusion, although it is possible that eEVAR is associated with a reduction in bowel ischaemia. Long-term data were lacking for both survival and late complications. More high-quality randomised controlled trials comparing eEVAR and open repair for the treatment of RAAA are needed to better understand if one...

Abstract 016: Endovascular Management of Major Vascular Access Site Complications During Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI). Session Title: Poster Session I
Conclusion: Many patients with major vascular complications during TAVI can be treated with a pure endovascular approach. In our small series we observed no difference in concurrent complications when an endovascular repair can be rapidly initiated as compared to a primary surgical approach.

Right brachial access is safe for branched endovascular aneurysm repair in complex aortic disease
The risk of perioperative cerebrovascular events in endovascular repair of thoracic and thoracoabdominal aneurysms is reported from 2% to 15%. The unavoidable use of an upper extremity access during branched endovascular aneurysm repair (b-EVAR) may play a role in embolic brain injuries. For this reason, some advocate the use of a left-sided upper access to avoid crossing the origin of supra-aortic vessels. However, the assumption that right brachial access has a higher risk for stroke during b-EVAR has not been confirmed in the literature.

Evidence for and risks of endovascular treatment of asymptomatic acute type B aortic dissection.
Abstract Acute aortic dissection is a challenging disease to manage. Type B aortic dissection has traditionally been divided temporally into acute and chronic cases but more recently this classification has been modified to include a sub-acute phase. Computed tomography is the imaging technique used most frequently in diagnosis and management. Active management of blood pressure is essential and should include beta-blockade unless contra-indicated. In-hospital outcomes are generally acceptable in patients with medically managed acute uncomplicated type B aortic dissection, with up to 90% of patients surviving to h...
