Objective: The European Society for Vascular Surgery (ESVS) has developed clinical practice guidelines for the care of patients with vascular trauma with the aim of assisting physicians in selecting the optimal management strategy.
Methods: The guidelines are based on scientific evidence completed with expert opinion. By summarising and evaluating the best available evidence, recommendations for the evaluation and treatment of patients have been formulated.
Objective: Clinical practice guideline recommendations are often informed by systematic reviews. This review aimed to appraise the reporting and methodological quality of systematic reviews informing clinical practice recommendations relevant to vascular surgery.
Data Sources: MEDLINE and Embase.
Objective: High risk, inoperable patients with ascending aortic disease are increasingly managed with thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). The aim of this study was to assess the available literature on TEVAR confined to the ascending aorta (a-TEVAR), describing study and patient characteristics, procedural and stent graft details, and outcomes.
