Kidney graft directly implanted on endovascular stent in external iliac artery; a preliminary experience.

With an increasingly aging population, both end-stage renal disease and peripheral artery disease become more prevalent. Peripheral artery disease is increasingly treated with endovascular procedures. Endovascular stenting of the external iliac artery (EIA) is often considered a contraindication for kidney transplantation, as clamping of the artery could result in possible injuring of the stent.

The role of inflow disease on patency of venous stents for post-thrombotic syndrome.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the risk of deep femoral vein (DFV) and/or femoral vein (FV) inflow disease on venous stent patency loss in post-thrombotic syndrome.

Methods: This single-center retrospective study included limbs with iliofemoral and ilocaval stents for PTS. Single-vessel and double-vessel inflow disease was defined based on imaging of possible post-thrombotic changes in the DFV/FV.

Peri-operative and Midterm Results of Supracoeliac vs. Infracoeliac Sealing for Fenestrated Endovascular Aortic Repair of Juxtarenal Aortic Aneurysms.

Unlabelled: This retrospective observational study using clinical data from two large hospitals in the Netherlands evaluated midterm outcomes of fenestrated endovascular aortic repair for juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (JAAAs), comparing supracoeliac with infracoeliac sealing. Supracoeliac sealing is considered advantageous due to a longer proximal sealing, but morbidity is usually higher. Supracoeliac proximal sealing was found to be safe and effective for treating JAAAs, with peri-operative and midterm outcomes comparable with infracoeliac proximal sealing.
