Thoracic endovascular aortic repair with branched Inoue Stent Graft for arch aortic aneurysms

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2017
Background Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) is in rapid expansion due to its minimal invasiveness. However, TEVAR for an arch aneurysm with a straight stent graft needs surgical reconstruction for supra ...

Haemostatic changes and bleeding with anti‐IL‐6 directed therapy in autoimmune diseases

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anti‐IL‐6 directed therapy, especially tocilizumab (TCZ), is widely used for the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, giant cell arteritis and systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Next to being a master regulator of inflammation, IL‐6 also is an important regulator of haemostasis. Although generally well tolerated,

In Situ Laser Fenestration Is a Feasible Method for Revascularization of Aortic Arch During Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
Background Reconstruction of the aortic major branches during thoracic endovascular aortic repair is complicated because of the complex anatomic configuration and variation of the aortic arch.

Targeting PCSK9 in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells: An Effective Strategy to Suppress Ferroptosis and Attenuate Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Progression

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
PCSK9 aggravates AAA by promoting ferroptosis in VSMCs. In the pathological AAA environment, PCSK9 upregulation triggers ferritinophagy‐dependent degradation of FTH1, leading to Fe2+ release, triggering lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, exacerbating AAA.

A Rare Complication of TEVAR Performed for Complex Acute Stanford B Aortic Dissection

The Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgeon Reports, 2017
Management of aortic dissection with a novel endovascular technique known as thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) paired with surgical debranching as a less invasive alternative to conventional repair has gained widespread acceptance.

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
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.

Favorable impact of thoracic endovascular aortic repair on survival of patients with acute uncomplicated type B aortic dissection

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2017
Background: In uncomplicated type B aortic dissection (UTBAD), the “gold standard” has been nonoperative treatment with medical therapy, although this has been questioned by studies demonstrating improved outcomes in those treated with thoracic ...

Analysis of antibiotic strategies to prevent vascular graft or endograft infection after surgical treatment for infective native aortic aneurysms: a systematic review

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control
Introduction Some patients with an infective native aortic aneurysm (INAA) develop an aortic vascular graft or endograft infection (VGEI) even after successful open surgical repair or endovascular intervention.
