Thoracic endovascular aortic repair for advanced esophageal cancer invading the aorta: A prognosis analysis among 124 patientsCentral MessagePerspective [PDF]
Objectives: Advanced esophageal cancer invading the aorta is considered an unresectable disease with a poor prognosis. We evaluated the clinical impact of elective thoracic endovascular aortic repair implantation on the prognosis of such patients ...

Aortic valve repair: An exciting journey
Aortic valve repair has become an attractive alternative to aortic valve replacement in most of the patients with aortic insufficiency. To improve reproducibility and durability “geometric anatomy” of the valve has been developed to guide the repair ...

Fenestrated Endovascular Aortic Repair After Failed Endovascular Aortic Repair
Purpose: Fenestrated endovascular aortic repair (FEVAR) is technically more challenging when performed after a failing EVAR procedure (FEVAR after EVAR). This study aims to assess the technical outcome of FEVAR after EVAR and to identify factors that may influence complication rates.

Aortic valve replacement remains the gold standard for the treatment of severe aortic valve disease. Techniques for valve repair are emerging as a feasible alternative to valve replacement in selected patients. Advantages include potential reduction in the risks of prosthesis-related complications such as thromboembolism, endocarditis, anticoagulant ...
