Background: Endovascular repair of the thoracic aorta after traumatic rupture is an alternative to open repair and its use is becoming increasingly widespread. We aimed to determine the concurrent injuries sustained in patients who underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) as well as their Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) and Injury Severity Score (ISS). We also aimed to identify the intraoperative and early complications of TEVAR grafting up to 6 months after procedure and in addition identify the late postoperative complications occurring after 6 months after stent.
Background: To evaluate the clinical outcomes after fenestrated endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (F-EVAR) in octogenarians.
Background: Nonagenarians are typically considered poor operative candidates for major aortic intervention because of shorter life expectancy, multiple comorbidities, and increased perioperative morbidity and mortality. Endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) has clearly been associated with a lower perioperative morbidity and mortality in most anatomically suitable patients. There have been many reports of the technical success of EVAR in octogenarians, but few documenting EVAR in nonagenarians. In this study, we sought to review our experience with elective EVAR in nonagenarians to determine outcomes, complications, and long-term survival after repair.
Background: We report our retrospective experience on postimplantation syndrome (PIS) after the use of Anaconda™ endograft in patients undergoing elective endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (EVAR).
Objectives: Limb thrombosis after endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) (EVAR) is a complication occurring in 2 to 5% of the cases according to the studies. The objective of this study was to identify preoperative predictive factors of limb thrombosis after EVAR.
Objectives: To evaluate the technique of obliterating endo-aneurysmorrhaphy with in situ conservation of the stentgraft (SG) in the treatment of type 2 or unspecified endoleaks (EL II) with an enlargement of the aneurysmal sac.
Objectives: The last randomized studies did not show the effectiveness and benefit of transluminal angioplasty on renal function, hypertension, and cardiovascular events compared to the medical care alone. The surgical treatment of the atheromatous stenoses of the renal arteries is now carried out mainly when they are associated with an aortic pathology of surgical indication. Which are the results of this surgery and under which conditions is it necessary to carry it out?
Background: The postthrombotic syndrome (PTS) is a chronic complication of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) that is characterized by leg swelling and ulceration.
Objectives: The endovascular treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) can be limited by a proximal extension to the supra-aortic trunks (SAT). We report our initial experience of the use of a notched stentgraft (SG) designed to keep patent the SAT at the level of the proximal aortic neck.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe the rate, the prognosis and the results of the surgical treatment of the complications occurring in the ascending aorta after endovascular treatment of the aortic arch.
Objectives: The endovascular treatment of the thoracic aorta profited of the improvement of the design of thoracic stentgrafts (TS) in particular for the procedures including the aortic arch (AA). This progress in the conformability of the second generation TS made it possible to widen the indications with more technical aortic necks (AN). However, this improvement in conformability does not preclude the quality of anchoring of the SG, which depends on the radial force of the stent. An important force exposes to the risk of traumatism of the arterial wall, whereas a lesser force exposes to the risk of migration. These are the mechanical characteristics that we wanted to study on the various models of SG available on the market.
Objectives: To evaluate the technical feasibility and the short-term results of the endovascular treatment of para- or juxtarenal aneurysms of the abdominal aorta associating chimney technics and fenestrated stentgrafts according to anatomical indications and/or specific accesses.
Objectives: Whereas the first short-term results of the endovascular treatment by branched stentgrafts of thoracoabdominal aneurysms (TAA) are reported, the aim of this study was to evaluate the current results of open surgery in a center of reference.
Objectives: To determine the respective impact of the costs of the ancillary equipment and the closing systems billed to the institution for endovascular procedures and to match them back with the T2A revenue.
Materials and Methods: Between June 2009 and October 2012 all the patients electively treated with stentgrafts for an infrarenal AAA in our center were included in a prospective register. In addition to the clinical and usual paraclinical data, preoperative and immediate postoperative (H+24) BNP and troponin values were measured. According to our laboratory myocardial ischemia was defined by a threshold of troponin > 0.05 μg/L. All the patients were followed up according to the current recommendations. The ROC curve made it possible to determine the optimal threshold value of BNP.
