Project description:Background Aneurysmal rupture in the aortoiliac segment is a severe, life-threatening condition. Nowadays, in addition to surgical treatment, the implantation of a covered stent graft constitutes a feasible, minimally invasive treatment option. A novel approach is the add-on of transarterial aneurysm sac embolization with N-butyl-cyanoacrylate (NBCA). Here, we report our experience of performing this add-on embolization procedure after endovascular aneurysm repair for complex ruptured aneurysms of the aortoiliac segment. Material and Methods We describe six patients (mean age of 75.2 years; all male) with ruptured aneurysms in the visceral aortic and aortoiliac segment in whom a high-volume transarterial aneurysm sac embolization was performed as an add-on therapy to the implantation of an aortic prosthesis. The aim of this add-on intervention was to achieve the definite embolization of the aneurysmal rupture site and to ensure the best possible aneurysmal sealing. We report the feasibility, technical success, and considerations of using NBCA as well as clinical and follow-up imaging results, given their availability. Results Technical success was achieved in all cases. Clinical success was achieved in four cases. No periprocedural complications or reinterventions were reported. The mean full procedure time was 107.8 min. The mean radiation dose was 12,966.1 cGy/cm2. A mean amount of 10.7 mL of NBCA mixed with lipiodol in a 1:3 to 1:5 ratio was used for all patients. Available follow-up imaging up to 36 months after the procedure showed no aneurysm progression or endoleaks. In two patients, the NBCA cast had almost fully dissolved over the course of follow-up. Conclusions Our study underscores the notion that aneurysm sac embolization using high volumes of NBCA with ethiodized oil as an embolic agent is a feasible and add-on treatment option for optimizing the exclusion of the aneurysm from patients with ruptured aneurysms in the aortoiliac segment.

Project description:BackgroundMultiple organ failure (MOF) is associated with poor outcomes and increased mortality in sepsis and trauma. There are limited data regarding MOF in patients after ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) repair. We aimed to identify the contemporary prevalence and characteristics of patients with rAAA with MOF.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed patients with rAAA who underwent repair (2010-2020) at our multihospital institution. Patients who died within the first 2 days after repair were excluded. MOF was quantified by modified (excluding hepatic system) Denver, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, and Multiple Organ Dysfunction Score (MODS) for postoperative days 3 to 5 to determine the prevalence of MOF. MOF was defined as a Denver score of >3, dysfunction in two or more organ systems by SOFA score, or a MODS score of >8. Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank testing were used to evaluate differences in 30-day mortality between multiple organ failure and patients without MOF. Logistic regression was used to assess predictors of MOF.ResultsOf 370 patients with rAAA, 288 survived past two days (mean age, 73±10.1 years; 76.7% male; 44.1% open repair), and 143 had data for MOF calculation recorded. From postoperative days 3 to 5, 41 (14.24%) had MOF by Denver, 26 (9.03%) by SOFA, and 39 (13.54%) by MODS criteria. Among these scoring systems, pulmonary and neurological systems were impacted most commonly. Among patients with MOF, pulmonary derangement occurred in 65.9% (Denver), 57.7% (SOFA), and 56.4% (MODS). Similarly, neurological derangement occurred in 92.3% (SOFA) and 89.7% (MODS), but renal derangement occurred in 26.8% (Denver), 23.1% (SOFA), and 10.3% (MODS). MOF by all three scoring systems was associated with increased 30-day mortality (Denver: 11.3% vs 41.5% [P < .01]; DOFA: 12.6% vs 46.2% [P < .01]; MODS: 12.5% vs 35.9% [P < .01]), as was MOF by any criteria (10.8% vs 35.7 %; P < .01). Patients with MOF were more likely to have a higher body mass index (55.9±26.6 vs 49.0±15.0; P = .011) and to have had a preoperative stroke (17.9% vs 6.0%; P = .016). Patients with MOF were less likely to have undergone endovascular repair (30.4% vs 62.1%; P < .001). Endovascular repair was protective against MOF (any criteria) on multivariate analysis (odds ratio, 0.23; 95% confidence interval, 0.08-0.64; P = .019) after adjusting for age, gender, and presenting systolic blood pressure.ConclusionsMOF occurred in only 9% to 14% of patients after rAAA repair, but was associated with a three-fold increase in mortality. Endovascular repair was associated with a reduced MOF incidence.
