Objectives: This study aimed to compare the outcomes of revascularization strategies for patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) whereby single vessel run off to the foot was established with or without flow into a patent pedal arch.
Background: There are few published data on the incidence and long-term outcomes of critical limb ischemia, acute limb ischemia, or acute visceral ischemia with which to inform health service planning, to monitor prevention, and to enable risk prediction.
Background: Treatment for symptomatic peripheral artery disease includes lower extremity bypass surgery (LEB) and peripheral endovascular interventions (PVIs); however, limited comparative effectiveness data exist between the 2 therapies. We assessed the safety and effectiveness of LEB and PVI in patients with symptomatic claudication and critical limb ischemia.
Objectives: This study aims to investigate the prognostic significance of the rate of variation of C-reactive protein (CRP) levels as a predictor of aneurysmal sac and neck expansion and, therefore, of aneurysm disease progression, in patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) in the absence of endoleaks.
Objectives: This study sought to estimate the 2-year life expectancy (2YLE) (estimated survival rate >50% at 2 years) in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) using the risk score based on predictors of all-cause mortality within 2 years.
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a complex disease process that often occurs alongside numerous comorbidities, and as such requires a personalized, multidisciplinary treatment approach in every patient. Patient outcomes are generally poor and there remains a lack of consensus on the optimal revascularization strategy in individuals with CLI.
Background: Benefits of 2-dimensional (2D) angiosome-oriented infrapopliteal revascularization remain controversial. The aim of this retrospective study was to clarify the effect of single tibial artery revascularization on the dorsal and plantar microcirculation of critically ischemic limbs based on skin perfusion pressure (SPP).
Context: Endovascular procedures, requiring X-ray guidance, are commonly performed in vascular surgery. X-ray exposure is associated with biological risks for both patients and physicians. Medical X-ray use must follow “as low as reasonably achievable” (ALARA) principles, which aim at using the lowest radiation exposure to achieve a procedure safely. This is underlined by European and international recommendations that also suggest that adequate theoretical and practical training is mandatory during the initial education of physicians. However, the content of this education and professional practices vary widely from one country to another.
Objective: To compare 30 day outcomes and costs of fenestrated and branched stent grafts (f/b EVAR) and open surgery (OSR) for the treatment of complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) and thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAA).
Objectives/Background: ECAR (Endovasculaire ou Chirurgie dans les Anévrysmes aorto-iliaques Rompus) is a prospective multicentre randomized controlled trial including consecutive patients with ruptured aorto-iliac aneurysms (rAIA) eligible for treatment by either endovascular (EVAR) or open surgical repair (OSR). Inclusion criteria were hemodynamic stability and computed tomography scan demonstrating aorto-iliac rupture.
Objective: In this study the first results are presented of a new endovascular technique using covered stents to reconstruct the aortic bifurcation in patients with aortoiliac occlusive disease. With the “Covered Endovascular Reconstruction of the Aortic Bifurcation” (CERAB) technique, the anatomy and physiology of the aortic bifurcation is mimicked.
Objectives: To analyze the early and long-term survival and re-intervention rate in patients undergoing TEVAR for blunt traumatic thoracic aortic injury.
I know what you are thinking: “What does oncology have to do with Endovascular Today?” The topics within these pages usually pertain to vascular diseases and the many issues surrounding them. Even the name of the publication indicates a vascular orientation. So why this foray into cancer?
Globally, primary liver cancer is the sixth most common cancer and is the second highest cause of cancer mortality.1 Hepatoma, or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), accounts for approximately 80% of primary liver tumors. Major risk factors for the development of HCC include hepatitis B infection, hepatitis C infection, cirrhosis, heavy alcohol consumption, and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.2
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) arise from neural and endocrine organs throughout the body, most commonly the gastrointestinal system and pancreas. The World Health Organization classifies well-differentiated gastroenteropancreatic NETs into low grade and intermediate grade, and most poorly differentiated tumors are considered high grade, based on mitotic count/Ki-67 proliferative index.1 Indolent and well-differentiated tumors of the digestive system are traditionally called carcinoid and pancreatic neuroendocrine (islet cell) tumors. Well-differentiated tumors are often indolent, even in the setting of metastatic disease, and thus, are labeled “cancers in slow motion.”2
