Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair in a centenarian
As the general population ages, there will be an increasing number of vascular patients in their 90s and older. However, geriatric patients have historically been turned down for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair despite high aneurysm-related mortality in

Comparative clinical effectiveness and cost effectiveness of endovascular strategy v open repair for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm: three year results of the IMPROVE randomised trial. [PDF]
Objective To assess the three year clinical outcomes and cost effectiveness of a strategy of endovascular repair (if aortic morphology is suitable, open repair if not) versus open repair for patients with suspected ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm ...

Endovascular repair of thoracic aortic aneurysm
A thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a potentially life-threatening condition with structural weakness of the aortic wall, which can progress to arterial dilatation and rupture. Today, both an increasing awareness of vascular disease and the access to tomographic imaging facilitate the diagnosis of TAA even in an asymptomatic stage.

Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms
Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...

Thresholds for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair in England and the United States. [PDF]
Background Thresholds for repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms vary considerably among countries. Methods We examined differences between England and the United States in the frequency of aneurysm repair, the mean aneurysm diameter at the time of the ...

Abstract Secondary aortoduodenal fistula (sADF) is a rare but life‐threatening complication after aortic graft surgery. Diagnosis is often challenging, particularly when contrast‐enhanced computed tomography (CT) and endoscopy results are inconclusive. We report a case in which diagnosis was challenging due to contrast media allergy and non‐diagnostic ...

Endovascular repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm in a kidney transplant recipient
Surgical treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm in patients with a transplanted kidney is true a challenge. Conventional open repair of the aneurysm requires aortic cross-clamping.
