Open versus Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2019
BACKGROUND Elective endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm results in lower perioperative mortality than traditional open repair, but after 4 years this survival advantage is not seen; in addition, results of two European trials have shown ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysms and endovascular sealing: deformation and dynamic response [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Endovascular sealing is a new technique for the repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Commercially available in Europe since~2013, it takes a revolutionary approach to aneurysm repair through minimally invasive techniques. Although aneurysm sealing may be thought as more stable than conventional endovascular stent graft repairs, post-implantation ...

Cerebral Aneurysm Flow Diverter Modeled as a Thin Inhomogeneous Porous Medium in Hemodynamic Simulations [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Rapid and accurate simulation of cerebral aneurysm flow modifications by flow diverters (FDs) can help improving patient-specific intervention and predicting treatment outcome. However, with explicit FD devices being placed in patient-specific aneurysm model, the computational domain must be resolved around the thin stent wires, leading to high ...

A case of acute ischemic colitis after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair

Journal of Acute Disease, 2016
Colonic ischemia is a recognized complication of either open or endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. The clinical difficulty in establishing the diagnosis, the severity of this complication and the patient's poor physiological status may lead ...

Predicting risk of rupture and rupture‐preventing reinterventions following endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair

British Journal of Surgery, 2018
Clinical and imaging surveillance practices following endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for intact abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) vary considerably and compliance with recommended lifelong surveillance is poor.

Model reduction methodology for computational simulations of endovascular repair [PDF]

Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, London : Informa Healthcare, 2018, 21 (2), pp.139-148, 2019
Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a current alternative treatment for thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms, but is still sometimes compromised by possible complications such as device migration or endoleaks. In order to assist clinicians in preventing these complications, finite element analysis (FEA) is a promising tool.

The FRED‐X Flow Diverter—An Australian Experience

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The FRED X flow diverter features antithrombotic surface treatment to reduce thrombogenicity. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of FRED X in treating intracranial aneurysms in the Australian setting. Methods Clinical, procedural and imaging data were retrospectively reviewed for a consecutive series of patients at a ...

Surgeon-modified fenestrated endovascular aortic repair for ruptured anastomotic aneurysm after open thoracoabdominal repair

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2021
We report the case of a 60-year-old female patient with a contained rupture of a proximal anastomotic pseudoaneurysm after previous open repair of a type IV thoracoabdominal aneurysm. A repeat open repair was considered to be too risky.
