Objective: To compare target artery (TA) outcomes after fenestrated or branched endovascular aortic repair (FB-EVAR) versus open surgical repair (OSR) of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs).

Background: Few studies have compared TA outcomes after endovascular incorporation and open reconstruction.

Methods: Among consecutive patients who underwent elective OSR or FB-EVAR of TAAAs (2008-2020), we reviewed those who had postoperative imaging studies evaluating TA.

Objective: Comprehensive endovascular aortic programmes need optimal infrastructure and multidisciplinary teams to manage complex aortic aneurysms. This study assessed the implementation of such a programme in two centres and its impact on fenestrated or branched endovascular aortic repair (FB-EVAR) outcomes.

Methods: A retrospective review of patients treated for complex abdominal and thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs) by FB-EVAR between 2013 and 2023 was undertaken.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the completion of gate cannulation task performed by participants of varying experience using fluoroscopy, the Intraoperative Positioning System (IOPS)-a United States Food and Drug Administration-cleared endovascular navigation system that has been developed to reduce dependence on fluoroscopy-or an investigational augmented reality electromagnetic navigation technology based on IOPS.

Methods: The task consisted in the cannulation of the gate of a GORE Excluder AAA endoprosthesis bifurcated aortic stent graft (W.L.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the effectiveness of a hybrid stent graft technique for ensuring the patency of renal arteries during endovascular aortic repair in patients with complex thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms.
  • Data from three centers reveal that 14.2% of patients had hostile renal artery anatomies, and the technique showed a high technical success rate with no initial occlusions reported.
  • Over a median follow-up of 21 months, the primary patency rate of the renal arteries was 97%, with only a small percentage of patients requiring re-interventions for complications.

Toxoplasmosis is a worldwide parasitosis that is usually asymptomatic; cell-mediated immunity, particularly T cells, is a crucial mediator of the immune response against this parasite. Membrane protein expression has been studied for a long time in T lymphocytes, providing vital information to determine functional checkpoints. However, less is known about the role of post-translational modifications in T cell function.
