Purpose: To evaluate retrospectively the 2-year outcomes of the Gore Excluder Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis (IBE) in patients with and without coexisting hypogastric artery (HA) aneurysms in a large contemporary multicentric European experience using dedicated bridging devices.
Methods: The study included all consecutive patients treated at participating institutions with the Gore Excluder IBE device who received a covered stent (i.e.
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated mid-term outcomes of "short" inframalleolar vein bypasses in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) who previously experienced failed tibial endovascular treatments.
- A total of 107 CLTI patients were analyzed for early and 3-year outcomes, focusing on survival rates and patency levels; results indicated a 66.7% overall survival at three years.
- Insulin treatment and long-term corticosteroid use were found to negatively impact patency and limb salvage rates, emphasizing the need for careful management of these conditions in patients undergoing such procedures.
Article Synopsis
- The Manta Vascular Closure Device, designed for closing large-bore arterial accesses, was evaluated to see if it performs as well as the ProGlide device in terms of achieving hemostasis after endovascular procedures.
- A retrospective study was conducted on 524 cases of (T)EVAR procedures between January 2021 and April 2023, comparing outcomes of 355 procedures using Manta versus 169 using ProGlide.
- Results showed similar complication rates and effectiveness for both devices, although Manta had a statistically larger sheath size, indicating that both are viable options for vascular closure.
