Purpose: Endovascular repair of chronic post-dissection thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysms (PD-TAAA) presents specific technical challenges due to the presence of chronic septum. Small true lumen diameter and false lumen visceral vessel origin can make branched endograft prohibitive. Septotomy may allow to overcome these challenges in cases of high complex anatomy.

- Carotid artery stenting (CAS) with new-generation Roadsaver dual-layer stents aims to improve outcomes compared to traditional stenting methods, which have worse results in plaque issues and cerebral embolization.
- This study analyzed data from 353 patients who underwent CAS between 2017 and 2022 at three Italian centers, focusing on procedural success and adverse cerebrovascular events, including strokes and transient ischemic attacks.
- Results showed a high technical success rate of 96.9%, with a low incidence of complications, indicating that the Roadsaver stent may offer better midterm safety and effectiveness for patients undergoing this procedure.
Purpose: The aim of our study is to investigate the feasibility of retrograde cannulation using devices with inner branches (IB) for the endovascular treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs).
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis using IB configuration with retrograde cannulation was carried out on TAAAs patients undergoing endovascular treatment.
Results: Seven patients underwent IB endovascular treatment with retrograde cannulation between September 2020 and November 2021.
Background: The GORE EXCLUDER Conformable Endoprosthesis with active control (CEXC) was developed to treat challenging aortic neck anatomy. This study investigated the clinical results and changes in endograft (ap)position during follow-up.
Methods: Patients treated with the CEXC between 2018 and 2022 were included in this prospective single-center study.
