Evaluation of physician-modified endografts for the treatment of thoraco-abdominal and pararenal aortic pathologies at a single institution
CONCLUSIONS: When used by experienced teams under appropriate anatomical conditions, PMEGs are a safe and effective alternative to open surgery. However, further technical advancement and larger studies with long-term follow-up periods are warranted.PMID:34338495 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.21.11877-4

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

Survival outcomes and adverse events in patients with chronic kidney disease after coronary artery bypass grafting and percutaneous coronary intervention: a meta-analysis of propensity score-matching studies
CONCLUSIONS: Our propensity score matching analysis revealed that, based on long-term follow-up outcomes, CABG remains superior to PCI in patients with CKD.PMID:33781160 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2021.1903928

Direct Oral Anticoagulant Use in Special Populations: Elderly, Obesity, and Renal Failure
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThe purpose of this review is to examine the safety and effectiveness of direct oral anticoagulants and provide recommendations for the treatment of venous thromboembolism and atrial fibrillation in obese patients, elderly patients, and patients with chronic kidney disease.Recent FindingsMultiple retrospective cohort studies have shown no difference in bleeding, stroke, or venous thromboembolism outcomes between DOACs and warfarin in patients who are obese, elderly, or those with chronic kidney disease or on dialysis. Some studies have shown that DOACs have a lower bleeding risk than warfarin in th...

Kidney Disease and Epilepsy
The family of a 47-year-old man with end stage renal failure on hemodialysis brought him to the emergency room. He had missed 3 sessions of dialysis due to concerns for COVID-19 precautions. He had developed increasing confusion and generalized weakness. Examination showed altered mental status and disorientation to date and place. He had bilateral gaze evoked nystagmus and asterixis in his upper extremities. His lab work showed Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) of 75 mg/dL and Creatinine of 6.2 mg/dL. His EEG showed generalized triphasic waves (Fig. 1).

Open Repair of Acute Type A Intramural Hematoma in 3 Patients
Tex Heart Inst J. 2020 Aug 1;47(4):290-297. doi: 10.14503/THIJ-20-7242.ABSTRACTAcute aortic syndrome encompasses classic aortic dissection and less common aortic phenomena, including intramural hematoma (IMH), a hemorrhage within the aortic media that occurs without a discrete intimal tear. We reviewed our experience with treating acute type A IMH to better understand this acute aortic syndrome. A review of our clinical database identified 1,902 proximal aortic repairs that were performed from January 2006 through December 2018; of these, 266 were for acute aortic syndrome, including 3 (1.1%) for acute type A IMH. Operativ...
