Adjunctive proximal aortic and aortodistal prosthetic wrapping of vascular anastomoses for Adamantiadis-Behçet's aortic/aortoiliac aneurysms: A revisit.

Background: We described our local experiences with a single-layer wrapping technique for the vascular anastomoses in patients with Adamantiadis-Behçet's aortic/aortoiliac aneurysms using InterGard Silver-impregnated Dacron® patch prosthesis.

Methods: Between January 2013 to December 2019, we retrospectively reviewed 20 patients presented with Adamantiadis-Behçet's aortic/aortoiliac aneurysms. All patients presented with Adamantiadis-Behçet's aortic/aortoiliac aneurysms.

Conservative management of asymptomatic lately embolized amplatzer atrial septal occluder device to the supraceliac abdominal aorta: case report and the literature review.

Atrial septal defects of a single Secundum with favorable anatomy and margins are commonly treated with septal occluder devices. Device embolization is a well-known rare and serious complication of transcatheter structural heart interventions. Percutaneous transcatheter closure under fluoroscopic guidance using the occluder device has been considered as a safe and effective alternative to open surgery with a higher technical success rate.

Reliability of the Mangled Extremity Severity Score in the Management of Peripheral Vascular Injuries in Children: A Retrospective Review.

This study was aimed to evaluate different management modalities for peripheral vascular trauma in children, with the aid of the Mangled Extremity Severity Score (MESS). A single-center retrospective analysis took place between 2010 and 2017 at University Hospitals, having emergencies and critical care centers. Different types of vascular repair were adopted by skillful vascular experts and highly trained pediatric surgeons.

Prophylactic prosthetic wrapping for vascular anastomosis in patients with Behçet's aortic aneurysms: an experience from a resource-challenged setting.

Background: The objectives of the current study were to evaluate our technical and clinical results of surgical treatment of infrarenal Behçet's abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). In addition to the prosthetic wrapping of the constructed anastomosis as a prophylactic measure for patients with vasculo-Behçet's disease, together with the administration of per- and postoperative immunosuppressive therapy.

Methods: A single-center retrospective case series included 16 patients with vasculo-Behçet's AAA who treated with open surgical repair, between January 2005 and December 2013.

Different management options for primary varicose veins in females: A prospective study.

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term follow-up results of different management modalities in treating primary uncomplicated lower limb female varicosities.

Methods: A prospective study took place within a 3-year period from June 2010 until May 2012. Patients were divided into 3 groups: group I ( = 35) included those who underwent open surgical treatment.

Correction to: Vascular suture line wrapping for aortoiliac anastomoses following open surgical repair of infrarenal Behçet's aortoiliac aneurysms.

Following the publication of this article [1], the authors informed us of a typographical error in the spelling of "ePET-Dacron®" in the Background section. The sentence to be corrected is the following: "While anastomosing graft to host artery, vascular suture lines has been reinforced with expanded polyethylene terephthalate (ePTE - Dacron®), polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), omentum, an autogenous vein, or mesh to wrap the vascular anastomoses."

Vascular suture line wrapping for Aortoiliac anastomoses following open surgical repair of Infrarenal Behçet's Aortoiliac aneurysms.

Background: This study was conducted to evaluate our local experiences of adjunctive mechanical prosthetic wrapping for aortoiliac vascular anastomoses as a prophylactic measure following surgical repair of Behçet's aortoiliac aneurysms. The goal of prosthetic wrapping to reinforce the vascular anastomoses by mechanical protection to reduce the bleeding complications, and consequently pseudoaneurysm formation. This was aided by the administration of pre- and postoperative immunosuppressive therapy as an adjuvant treatment.
