artery (LSA) during thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). The preventative role of preoperative revascularization
of the LSA using carotid–subclavian bypass or transposition remains controversial. We assessed this increased risk and the
role of revascularization by undertaking a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature.
Methods: In the absence of any ra |

Some of these leaks are related to anatomic factors and patient selection, others are device related, and some (especially type II leaks) appear intrinsic to the endovascular approach. Certain endoleaks require treatment as soon as they are detected due to continued pressurization of the aneurysm sac, while the need for treatment of others remains controversial. Using e |

Preoperative imaging of the aortic root facilitates sizing and deployment of the percutaneous aortic valve replacement device. We compared morphologic characteristics of the aortic root in patients with aortic stenosis versus elderly gender-matched controls using multidetector computed tomography. |

A 74-year-old man with a history of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm repair presented with bilateral common iliac and left femoral aneurysms as well as a thoracic aortic aneurysm. He underwent an open repair of the iliac and femoral aneurysms, followed by thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair in a staged manner without complications. Ten months later, he presented with hypotension, and permanent parap |

Endovascular stent-graft treatment can be performed in the management of complicated IMH, even in some cases of type A IMH, when an intimal lesion is located in the isthmus or descending aorta with contraindi- cations to surgery. This procedure offers low morbidity and mortality rates, representing a feasible therapeutic option especially for elderly patients with comorbidities. Further studies ar |

Proper sizing and shaping require the measurement of the orthogonal diameter of the target region from medical images. The present study aimed to acquire an accurate three-dimensional(3D) reconstruction of the aorta to determine the shape fo the cross-sectional area where the stent graft would be implanted. A |

Little is known about TEVAR’s nationwide effect on patient outcomes. We evaluated nationwide data regarding the short-term outcomes of TEVAR and open aortic repair (OAR) procedures performed in the United States during a 2-year period.
Methods: From the Nationwide Inpatient Sample data, we identified patients who had undergone surgery for an isolated descending tho |

combined surgical and endovascular technique for the
treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections.
The technique is used to treat extensive aortic disease by
a single-stage procedure. Surgical outcomes and follow-
up data are summarized and analyzed. |
