Splenic artery pathology presentation, operative interventions, and outcomes in 88 patients with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.

Objective: Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (VEDS) is rare and associated with arteriopathies. The aim of this study is to investigate the presentation, operative interventions, and outcomes of splenic arterial pathology in a population of more than 1500 individuals with genetically confirmed VEDS due to pathogenic COL3A1 variants.

Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of 1547 individuals was performed.

Contemporary management and outcomes of peripheral venous aneurysms: A multi-institutional study.

Objective: Extremity venous aneurysms result in the risk of pulmonary embolism (PE) and chronic venous insufficiency. At present, owing to the rarity of these aneurysms, no consensus for their treatment has been established. The purpose of the present study was to review the presentation, natural history, and contemporary management of extremity venous aneurysms.
