Objective: To analyze the results of endovascular treatment of venous anastomotic stenosis (VAS) in humero-axillary arteriovenous grafts (HAG), comparing outcomes between patent and thrombosed HAG.

Material And Methods: A retrospective cohort study was made of endovascular treated patients because of a VAS in a HAG between January 2009 and December 2019. Group A: Thrombosed HAG secondary to a VAS.

Article Synopsis
  • Aortic dissection is rare in children and often linked to conditions like Marfan or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, though about 22% occur without any known risk factors.
  • Early detection is crucial for preventing serious complications, especially when symptoms are atypical and there are no obvious predisposing factors.

Aim: Traumatic aortic injury is usually lethal, most often because of serious associated wounds. The short- and midterm outcome of endovascular exclusion was assessed as the current treatment of choice due to a lower mortality and morbidity than open surgical treatment.

Methods: We reviewed the cases of 8 patients (5 male, mean age 33 years) undergoing endovascular repair of a traumatic thoracic aortic lesion, confirmed by computed tomographic angiography, at our centre.
