We investigated UV‐induced pigmentation responses in Ambystoma barbouri, A. texanum, and their hybrids, finding that A. barbouri larvae darken more strongly than A. texanum, with hybrids showing intermediate phenotypes closer to their maternal lineage.

Percutaneous transapical access to facilitate complex thoracic endovascular aortic repair
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) provides an alternative to open surgery for a variety of aortic diseases. However, complex anatomy and previous operations may preclude traditional approaches to TEVAR.

ABSTRACT Background Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols reduce length of stay, complications, and costs for elective surgical procedures. It remains challenging to implement ERAS concepts in the acute trauma patient due to deranged physiological reserve from the penetrating or blunt trauma producing altered physiology.

Aortic Pathology Determines Midterm Outcome After Endovascular Repair of the Thoracic Aorta Report From the Medtronic Thoracic Endovascular Registry (MOTHER) Database [PDF]
Background—Endovascular repair of the thoracic aorta has become an increasingly utilized therapy. Although the short-term mortality advantage over open surgery is well documented, late mortality and the impact of presenting pathology on long-term ...

Stent-Graft Migration Post-Endovascular Repair of Thoracic Aorta: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Background Migration of the stent-graft post-thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is not uncommon; however, it is sparsely reported. The objective of this study was to assess the incidence, risk factors, and complications of stent-graft migration ...

Should intentional endovascular stent-graft coverage of the left subclavian artery be preceded by prophylactic revascularisation? [PDF]
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has emerged as a promising therapeutic alternative to conventional open aortic replacement but it requires suitable proximal and distal landing zones for stent-graft anchoring. Many aortic pathologies affect in

Case Series: Natural History and Treatment of Thoracic Aortic Sarcoma
ABSTRACT Aortic sarcoma is a rare and aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis despite surgical resection and vascular reconstruction. We present a case series of patients with thoracic aortic sarcoma, highlighting three distinct clinical scenarios: primary resection, resection following prior thoracic aortic endograft, and nonoperative management ...
