Impact of shaggy aorta on intraoperative cerebral embolism during carotid artery stenting.

Background: Careful selection of patients for carotid stenting is necessary. We suggest that patients with a shaggy aorta syndrome may be at higher risk for perioperative embolic complications.

Methods: The study is a retrospective subanalysis of the SIBERIA Trial.

One-Year Results of Long femoropopliteal Lesions Stenting with Fasciotomy Lamina Vastoadductoria.

Background: Fasciotomy can increase the mobility of the superficial femoral artery and decrease the incidence of stent fractures. This study aimed to compare the long-term patency of drug-eluting nitinol stents with and without fasciotomy in patients with prolonged superficial femoral artery occlusions.

Methods: A randomized clinical trial was conducted in 60 (1:1) patients with long femoropopliteal steno-occlusive lesions >200 mm.

Bypass Versus Interwoven Nitinol Stents for Long Femoro-Popliteal Occlusions: A Propensity Matched Analysis.

Purpose: To compare femoro-popliteal bypass and interwoven nitinol stenting for long occlusions of the femoro-popliteal segment.

Materials And Methods: Single center retrospective propensity matching analysis of the symptomatic patients with long occlusion of the femoro-popliteal segment (> 20 cm), who underwent stenting with interwoven nitinol stent or femoro-popliteal bypass from 2012 to 2020.

Primary Endpoints: primary patency, primary-assisted patency, secondary patency.
