Article Synopsis
- Comparative sonographic examination of the renal resistance index (RRI) is useful in detecting renal artery stenosis, but the impact of stent graft implantation on RRI is unclear.
- This study aimed to evaluate how stent graft implantation into healthy renal arteries affects the RRI during treatment for pararenal aortic aneurysms.
- In a group of 32 patients, RRI values showed no significant change before and after the stent graft implantation, indicating that RRI is reliable for assessing renal perfusion after such procedures.
Recommendations for surgical versus conservative treatment of asymptomatic carotid stenosis (ACS) are based on prospective randomized trials, some of which were performed several decades ago. However, during this time, "best medical treatment" (BMT) for conservative therapy of arteriosclerotic patients has evolved significantly. Because of the associated risk reduction of ACS, surgical therapy is increasingly being questioned.

The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate patient demographics, treatment and periprocedural variables affecting the outcome in ALI patients in a consecutive cohort in a tertiary referral center. Primary outcome events (POE) were 30-day (safety) and 180-day (efficacy) combined mortality and major amputation rates, respectively.

(2) Methods: A modified Delphi procedure was used to develop consensus statements. Experts voted on antithrombotic treatment regimens for three types of infrainguinal arterial bypass procedures: above-the-knee popliteal artery; below-the-knee popliteal artery; and distal, using vein, prosthetic, or biological grafts.

Methods: Clinical and morphological data of eligible patients from a high-volume vascular centre from 1 January 2003 through 31 December 2020 were evaluated. Patients were excluded for: type A or non-A-non-B dissection, isolated abdominal dissection, intramural haematoma and connective tissue disease.
