Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to differentiate infectious aortitis (IA) from noninfectious aortitis (NIA) by examining their clinical, biological, and radiological features, along with their outcomes in a retrospective analysis of 183 patients from 10 French centers between 2014 and 2019.
- - Results showed that 36.1% of patients had IA, primarily caused by bacteria like Enterobacterales and streptococci, while NIA was mainly due to vasculitides and idiopathic causes; IA was notably linked to a higher prevalence of aortic aneurysms and lower survival rates.
- - The study concluded that IA had significantly higher mortality compared to NIA, with effective initial antibiotic treatment being
Objective: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the survival and freedom from reinfection for patients with infected native aortic aneurysms (INAAs) treated with in situ revascularization (ISR), using either open surgical repair (OSR) or endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), and to identify the predictors of outcome.
Methods: Patients with INAAs who had undergone ISR from January 2005 to December 2020 were included in the present retrospective single-center study. The diagnosis of INAAs required a combination of two or more of the following criteria: (1) clinical presentation, (2) laboratory results, (3) imaging findings, and (4) intraoperative findings.
One third of patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) has below the knee lesions and requires a restoration of direct blood flow into the foot. However, many of these patients are ineligible for open surgery. The primary goals thus become pain relief and limb salvage over patency.

Material And Methods: Systematic review of articles from the PubMed database and the Cochrane Library and of recommendations from the French and foreign societies or colleges of obstetricians.
Results: Because breast-feeding is associated with reductions in neonatal, infantile, and childhood morbidity (lower frequency of cardiovascular, infectious, and atopic diseases and infantile obesity) (LE2) and improved cognitive development in children (LE2), exclusive and extended breastfeeding is recommended (grade B) for at least 4-6 months (professional consensus).
Postpartum pelvic floor disorders. Postpartum pelvic floor disorders are frequent but most of the time, decrease spontaneously. Even if 40% of pregnant women suffer from urinary incontinence, 85% of them are cured 3 months after delivery.
