ENDOVASCULAR ANEURYSM REPAIR IN WIDE INFRARENAL NECKS - INCREASED RISK OF COMPLICATIONS?
EVAR has become the predominant repair technique for abdominal aortic aneurysm. Long-term clinical success relies greatly upon a long-lasting proximal seal. EVAR has achieved good outcomes on the short-term in patients with hostile neck features such as

Development of a polymer endovascular prosthesis and its implantation in porcine arteries [PDF]
A polyethylene-terephthalate braided mesh stent has been developed for application in the (coronary) arterial tree. In vitro measurements showed that the radial pressure delivered by this device was in the same range as that of a stainless steel stent ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Biocompatibility and tissue regenerating capacity of crosslinked dermal sheep collagen [PDF]
The biocompatibility and tissue regenerating capacity of four crosslinked dermal sheep collagens (DSC) was studied. In vitro, the four DSC versions were found to be noncytotoxic or very low in cytoxicity.
