Objective: Rupture after abdominal endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a function of graft maintenance of the seal and fixation. We describe our 10-year experience with rupture after EVAR.
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of contrast medium volume, inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) patency, and pre-existing as well as new-onset thrombus on the inflammatory response after elective endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).
Objective: The prevalence of significant comorbidities among patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) has contributed to widespread enthusiasm for endovascular AAA repair (EVAR). However, the advantages of EVAR in patients at low risk for open surgical repair (OSR) remain unclear. The objective of this study was to assess perioperative outcomes of EVAR and OSR in low-risk patients.
Background: Iliac artery endoconduits (ECs) have emerged as important alternatives to retroperitoneal open iliac conduits (ROICs) to aid in transfemoral delivery for thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). We present, to our knowledge, the first comparative analysis between these alternative approaches.
Objective: The objective of this study was to demonstrate a technique that uses physician-assembled endografts to make use of the benefits of parallel grafts while also providing for circumferential seal and fixation in repair of thoracoabdominal aneurysms in inoperable patients.
Objective: This study compared early outcomes between the custom-made and the new off-the-shelf multibranched endograft (mbEVAR, t-branch; Cook Medical, Bloomington, Ind) for the endovascular repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs).
Background: Patients with thoracic aortic disease undergoing thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) often have concomitant coronary artery disease and are at risk for perioperative adverse cardiac events. Despite this risk, the need for and extent of preoperative cardiac workup before TEVAR remain undefined. This study seeks to assess the adequacy of a limited cardiac evaluation before TEVAR, including assessment of cardiac symptoms, resting electrocardiography (ECG), and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), as well as to estimate the incidence of perioperative cardiac events in patients undergoing TEVAR.
Objective: The objective of this study was to assess midterm results of emergency endovascular stent grafting for patients with life-threatening complications of acute type B aortic dissection.
Objective: Several studies have confirmed the excellent early performance of the Endurant (Medtronic Endovascular, Santa Rosa, Calif) endoprosthesis to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). However, data about the long-term durability of the device are still lacking. We conducted this prospective two-center single-arm study to assess the late outcomes of the endograft in patients undergoing AAA repair.
Objective: In this study, we assessed the association between the tortuosity of the thoracic aorta as measured by the reporting standards for thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), described by the Society for Vascular Surgery, and midterm outcomes after TEVAR for atherosclerotic aneurysms.
Background: Intramural hematoma (IMH), penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer (PAU), and aortic dissection comprise a spectrum of acute aortic pathologies. Although thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has increasingly been applied to aortic dissection, there is a paucity of data on the anatomic effect of TEVAR for IMH. Our goal was to investigate the extent of aortic remodeling after TEVAR.
Objective: There are limited data describing the preclose technique with the Perclose ProGlide device (Abbott Vascular, Redwood City, Calif) in percutaneous thoracic endovascular aortic repair (P-TEVAR), particularly in obese patients, in whom use of this technique is thought to be relatively contraindicated. The purpose of this analysis was to describe our experience with P-TEVAR and to compare outcomes in patients with or without obesity.
Objective: Endovascular options for the treatment of proximal thoracic and arch disease have evolved over the years. In this manuscript, we review the midterm results of fenestrated compared with chimney configurations for proximal aortic aneurysm disease.
Objective: Elective abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair in suitable candidates is a standard modality. The outcomes of AAA repair in patients with end-stage renal disease on dialysis are not well characterized, and there is questionable survival advantage in such patients with limited life expectancy. We sought to describe outcomes after AAA repair in U.S. dialysis patients.
Objective: Shuttering occurs when a scallop or fenestration does not align perfectly with the target vessel ostium and is potentially minimized by stenting. The current United States Food and Drug Administration-approved fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair (f-EVAR) device is most commonly configured with an unstented superior mesenteric artery (SMA) scallop, thereby subjecting the SMA to risk of partial coverage. We aimed to describe the incidence, severity, and clinical effect of SMA shuttering during f-EVAR.
