An autopsy case of retrograde in situ branched stent grafting for a complex aortic arch aneurysm.

ABSTRACT: Although retrograde in situ branched stent grafting (RIBS) is one possible treatment option for thoracic aortic aneurysms, concerns exist regarding the durability of the stent graft (SG) at the junction between the main SG and the branched SG. We report on the autopsy results of a patient treated with RIBS for a complex aortic arch aneurysm. The patient had died of a nonaortic cause 14 months after the RIBS procedure. On computed tomography analysis and a leak test, the harvested SG was intact without any stent fracture, stenosis, or junctional leak at 1 atm water pressure (760 mm Hg).

A case report: stent implantation to treat coarctation of persistent 5th aortic arch associated with interrupted 4th aortic arch.

Project description:Persistent 5th aortic arch is a rare cardiac anomaly that is usually surgically corrected during infancy or early childhood if it is associated with coarctation of the aorta. Here, we report an adult with coarctation of the 5th aortic arch who was successfully treated by stent implantation. An asymptomatic 32-year-old woman presented with hypertension and a significant arm-leg difference in pressure. On suspicion of coarctation of the aorta, a chest computed tomography was performed, leading to a diagnosis of an interrupted 4th aortic arch with coarctation of a persistent 5th aortic arch. Percutaneous catheter intervention using a PALMAZ large stent dilated to 12 mm resulted in a minimal peak-to-peak pressure gradient. The patient was discharged home after a 2-day monitoring without hypertension and arm-leg blood pressure difference. She remained normotensive with a patent aortic arch on echocardiography performed 10 months after treatment. As for simple coarctation of the aorta, stent implantation was feasible and effective in an adult patient with coarctation of the 5th aortic arch.

Endovascular exclusion of the entire aortic arch with branched stent-grafts after surgery for acute type A aortic dissection.

Project description:BackgroundThe treatment of residual pathology of the aortic arch after surgical repair for type A acute dissection (AAD) represents a therapeutic challenge. Recently, new branched endovascular devices have expanded the possibility of aortic arch stent-grafting (ASG) with proximal landing in zone 0. The aim of this retrospective, single-center study was to evaluate outcomes of patients with a history of surgical repair for AAD undergoing ASG with branched devices.MethodsWe analyzed patients undergoing ASG after treatment for type AAD with 2 different branched devices: Nexus (dual-module, single branch, off-the-shelf) and RelayBranch (single-module, dual branch, custom-made). Before ASG, surgical bypass of supra-aortic vessels was performed according to patient's anatomy and to the selected device. All patients underwent clinical and computed tomography scan evaluation before hospital discharge, at 6 months, and on a yearly basis thereafter.ResultsFrom March 2017 to April 2019, 4 consecutive patients underwent ASG after surgery for AAD at our institution. Mean time from surgery for AAD to ASG was 20 months. Mean age at the time of ASG was 72 years. Nexus and Relay were implanted in 2 patients each. All patients survived and were successfully discharged. Mean intensive care unit stay and hospital stay were 3 and 19 days, respectively. We did not observe any major adverse events. At a mean follow-up of 28 months, all patients are alive and computed tomography scans showed good anatomic results with no endoleaks.ConclusionsThis preliminary experience shows that ASG after surgery for AAD is feasible and provides encouraging clinical and anatomic early results.

Extensive Arch Repair with a Novel Two-Branched Stent Graft in Acute Type A Aortic Dissection.

Project description:PurposeIn this study, we compared the early results between the extensive arch repair with a novel two-branched stent graft (TSG) and the traditional technique.MethodsBetween 2013 July and 2015 March, 63 acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) patients from four cardiac centers with indications for extensive arch repair were included in this study. Finally, 28 patients were involved in the traditional procedure (TP) group (23 males with the age of 49.75 ± 9.26 years) and 35 patients were involved in the TSG group (29 males with the age of 53.82 ± 8.17 years).ResultsThe operation was successful in all patients. The selective cerebral perfusion time, total operation time, and chest drainage within 24 hours after the operation in the TSG group were significantly less than those in the TP group (P ≤0.05). The mean follow-up time was 11.17 ± 1.74 months in the TP group and 11.94 ± 4.29 months in the TSG group. No statistical differences were found in aortic diameter, false lumen diameter, and true lumen diameter at the diaphragmatic level during the follow-up.ConclusionOur technique with a novel TSG simplified the extensive arch repair procedure and was an effective way for the treatment of ATAAD.

Successful use of retrograde branched extension limb assembling technique in endovascular repair of pararenal abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Project description:Surgeon-modified retrograde branched extension limb assembling technique and bridged endografts were successfully used to exclude an asymptomatic pararenal abdominal aortic aneurysm and to reconstruct the superior mesenteric artery and bilateral renal arteries in a case with high-grade celiac artery stenosis, nondilated aorta above the superior mesenteric artery, and large lumen below the renal arteries. In patient-specific models for hemodynamics analysis, enhanced flow diversion to visceral arteries up to 6-month follow-up confirmed treatment feasibility; however, endograft configurations could be improved to avoid sharp corners at bifurcations, thereby ensuring smooth flow transport and possibly reducing risk for endograft narrowing or the development of thrombosis.

Simplifying aortic arch surgery: open zone 2 arch with single branched thoracic endovascular aortic repair completion.

Project description:Distal aortic complications from acute DeBakey I dissection repair are an important source of late morbidity and mortality. We present an early experience of using a novel single-branched thoracic aortic endograft in conjunction with open techniques to treat acute DeBakey I aortic dissection.The patients in this series include five hyperacute dissections managed with a combined zone 2 partial arch replacement and placement of a zone 2 single subclavian branch endograft.There were no perioperative mortalities, strokes, or spinal cord ischemia in any patients at either stage of the procedure. At follow-up imaging, no patients had anterograde flow into the false lumen. All patients experienced false lumen thrombosis in the stented portion of the aorta.This combination of open repair techniques and the use of a novel branched endograft resulted in excellent early outcomes in this pioneer series. Further investigation of these techniques in a prospective fashion is warranted.

Multilayer bare stent technique in treating intact mycotic suprarenal aortic aneurysm: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundInvasive aspergillosis (IA) related mycotic aortic aneurysm is rare in immunocompetent patient. The endovascular therapy remains controversial due to potential risk of graft infection, while the suprarenal cases might face catastrophic complications during open surgery.Case summaryWe presented an IA case with suprarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm confirmed by joint effusion. Multilayer bare stent technique was performed to preserve visceral blood flow and promote aneurysmal thrombus formation, along with antifungal treatment. Two years of follow-up revealed complete aneurysm thrombosis without evidence of infection.DiscussionFungal infection that affects the aorta is difficult to recognize due to often negative blood cultures. Close observation is recommended in case of suspicion of mycotic aneurysms. Multilayer bare stent technique can restore luminal laminar blood flow and reduce the risk of infection in intact mycotic suprarenal aortic aneurysm.

Branched xenopericardial roll graft replacement of an infected aortic arch graft.

Project description:Which graft material is the optimal graft material for the treatment of aortic graft infections is still a matter of controversy. We used a branched xenopericardial roll graft to replace an infected aortic arch graft as a "rescue" operation. The patient is alive and well 37 months postoperatively without recurrence of the infection and any surgical complication. This procedure may have the possibility to serve as an option for the treatment of aortic arch graft infection.
