Morphological Features of the Ascending Aorta Remodeling and Activation of Regeneratory Potential in Intima when Forming Aneurysm.

In patients with an ascending aorta aneurysm, restructuring of all its layers and, first of all, the intima and media was revealed. The thickness of the intima was 79.3±63.

[Outcomes of endoprosthetic repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm].

Aim: The study was aimed at assessing efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms based on 11-year experience with implantation of stent grafts.

Patients And Methods: We retrospectively analysed outcomes of treatment of 242 patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm during the period from 2008 to 2019. Of these, 210 (86.

NECROTIC FASCIITIS AS A COMPLICATION OF ACUTE DESTRUCTIVE APPENDICITIS.

The timely diagnosis of necrotic fasciitis (NF) - an extremely rare fatal complication of acute appendicitis is difficult due to the variability of the clinical picture and depends on the degree of inflammatory changes in the appendix wall, localization, age, reactivity, and the presence or absence of comorbidities. It is characterized by high mortality rate, associated with the rapid progression of the disease with the development of septic shock and multiple organ failure. A clinical case of necrotic fasciitis of the right lower limb without damage of the anterior abdominal wall, secondary to the perforated process, as an extremely rare complication of appendicitis is presented.

[Staged implantation of an abdominal stent graft].

The article deals with a case report regarding successful surgical management of a patient presenting with an anatomically complicated aneurysm of the aortic infrarenal portion and iliac arteries. The first stage consisted in performing implantation of the Ovation Prime stent graft into the abdominal aorta. One month later, the second stage carried out for residual type IB endoleak consisted in implantation of the iliac components of the stent graft into the external iliac arteries on the right and the left.

[Hybrid reconstructive interventions in distal aortic dissection].

The authors report herein the findings of a prospective study including a total of 26 patients presenting with distal aortic dissection and treated by prosthetic repair of the descending portion of the thoracic aorta. The patients were subdivided into two groups, with Group One comprising 15 patients having the blood flow directed into the true channel and Group Two composed of eleven patients subjected to directing blood flow into the both channels. Twelve (80%) Group One patients were found to have thrombosis of the false channel and an increase in the true channel's diameter.
