Endo-Bentall Repair: Early Results and Feasibility of a Physician-Constructed Endo-Bentall Device.

Objective: We present our experience with endovascular Bentall procedure (Endo-Bentall) using a modular valve conduit (Endo-Bentall) in high-risk patients with aortic root pathologies.

Methods: The physician constructed Endo-Bentall device is composed of a self-expanding transcatheter aortic valve (TAVR), aortic endovascular stent graft (TEVAR), and two wire-reinforced fenestrations for coronary artery stenting. The TAVR valve is sutured into an appropriately sized TEVAR graft.

From Zone -1 to Zone 3: Feasibility and Safety of Complex Endovascular Aortic Repairs in Type A Aortic Dissection.

Objective: Over 30% of patients presenting with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) are considered high - risk or inoperable. This study aims to investigate the early and mid-term outcomes of complex endovascular aortic repair of aortic root, ascending aorta, and aortic arch among patients with ATAAD.

Methods: From January 2018 to January 2023, 29 patients who were considered high risk for open operation underwent endovascular aortic repair.

Vascular Closure Device vs Open Decannulation for Femoral Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation.

Background: Traditional decannulation of femoral venoarterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) involves femoral cutdown. Percutaneous methods have been developed, but data supporting their use are limited. This study sought to compare the MANTA (Teleflex) vascular closure device with open decannulation.

Transepithelial Versus Epithelium-off Photorefractive Keratectomy in High Compound Myopic Astigmatism: A Contralateral Eye Study.

Purpose: To compare clinical outcomes of transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (t-PRK) and conventional epithelium-off PRK (PRK) in patients with high compound myopic astigmatism.

Methods: Sixty eyes of 30 myopic individuals with at least -2.50 diopters (D) of spherical equivalent and 3.
