Anatomical suitability for branched endovascular aortic arch repair and balloon-expandable bridging stent grafts in a cohort of patients previously treated with a hybrid approach.

Objective: We assessed the suitability of two triple branch arch devices (aBranch) (Terumo aortic and Cook Medical) and a balloon-expandable covered stent (VBX, W. L. Gore & Associates, Johnson & Johnson) to incorporate the brachiocephalic trunk (BCT) in a cohort previously treated with hybrid thoracic endovascular repair (TEVAR).

Incidence, Long Term Clinical Outcomes, and Risk Factor Analysis of Type III Endoleaks Following Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.

Objective: To assess the real world incidence, outcomes, and risk factors of type III endoleaks (TIIIEL) after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).

Methods: This was a single centre, retrospective, observational, cohort study. All patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) receiving EVAR between 1994 and 2020 were collected prospectively and reviewed.

Balloon Inducted Re-Lamination and False Lumen Thrombosis in Chronic Type B Aortic Dissection: Technique and Long-Term Results.

Background: To evaluate the safety, feasibility, and effectiveness of the BAlloon Inducted re-Lamination and false lUmen Thrombosis (BAILOUT) as a simple technique to address the retrograde false lumen (FL) perfusion and subsequent aneurysmatic degeneration of the thoracic aorta due to a stent-graft crimped in a small true lumen in chronic Type B dissections.

Methods: An observational, retrospective, single-center study analyzing a nonconsecutive cohort of 8 patients affected by chronic type B aortic dissections already treated with thoracic endovascular repair and with an FL lumen backflow corrected with BAILOUT between 2006 and 2020. After a standard distal extension of the previously implanted graft, the distal end of the graft area was ballooned to completely rupture the dissection lamella to relaminate the aorta hindering the FL backflow.
