Aneurysm Growth After Endovascular Sealing of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (EVAS) with the Nellix Endoprosthesis.

Objective: The aim of this study was to measure the incidence of post endovascular aneurysm sealing (EVAS) abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) growth, and its association with stent migration, in a cohort of patients with differing compliance to old and new Instructions For Use (IFU).

Methods: A retrospective single centre study was conducted to review the computed tomography (CT) and clinical data of elective, infrarenal EVAS cases, performed as a primary intervention, between December 2013 and March 2018. All included patients had a baseline post-operative CT scan at one month and at least one year follow up.

Stent Frame Movement Following Endovascular Aneurysm Sealing in the Abdominal Aorta.

Purpose: To investigate the incidence and extent of stent frame movement after endovascular aneurysm sealing (EVAS) in the abdominal aorta and its relationships to aneurysm growth and the instructions for use (IFU) of the Nellix endograft.

Methods: A retrospective single-center study was conducted to review the clinical data and computed tomography (CT) images of 75 patients (mean age 76±7.6 years; 57 men) who underwent infrarenal EVAS and had a minimum 1-year follow-up.

Endovascular Aneurysm Sealing (EVAS) Alone or in Combination with Chimney Grafts (chEVAS) for Treating Complications of Previous Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) Procedures.

Objective: Late complications after previous endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) procedures include type I/III endoleaks causing aneurysm growth and rupture. We reviewed our results from the management of such complications with endovascular aneurysm sealing (EVAS) techniques.

Methods: Analysis of our prospectively maintained aneurysm database was performed (December 2013-May 2017).

Clinical Outcome after Endovascular Sealing of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background: The aim of this study is to present the clinical outcome of endovascular aneurysm sealing (EVAS) with the Nellix endoprosthesis in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms treated in our institution.

Methods: This is a retrospective, single center, observational cohort study. A departmental database was interrogated to extract demographics, clinical information, and outcome of all patients treated with EVAS between December 2013 and December 2015.

Development of a Scoring System for the Prediction of Early Graft Failure after Peripheral Arterial Bypass Surgery.

Background: An occluded lower limb arterial bypass is associated with poor prognosis for the limb. Currently, no risk assessment method to estimate the risk of early graft failure exists. Aim of this study was to investigate the effect of various potential factors on early graft failure of infrainguinal bypass surgery and to develop a risk-scoring model to predict it.
