We present the case of a 62-year-old woman who presented with recoarctation and then experienced rupture of the aorta and severe clinical deterioration after a stent was deployed. She was treated immediately by intrastent deployment of a stent-graft, which resolved the extremely serious situation.

Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, 100070, China.
Background: Precise diagnosis and rapid treatment for acute complex intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) are crucial. The neurosurgical hybrid operating platform integrates traditional open neurosurgery operating room functionalities with endovascular therapy capabilities and is developing in the neurosurgical practice. However, its effect on the emergent complicated neurovascular cases needs pilot exploration.

Background: Previous studies have strongly suggested that stent-graft deployment and acute arch angulation increase aortic stiffness, the impact of surgical interposition grafting remains unclear. We investigated the impact of open surgery on aortic stiffness and compared this with stent-graft induced aortic stiffening, utilising an ex vivo model.
Methods: Porcine thoracic aortas were connected to a mock circulatory loop.
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for an acute type A aortic dissection following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).

An 86-year-old male with multiple medical comorbidities was referred for an elective transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe symptomatic aortic stenosis with an ejection fraction of 35%. A self-expanding valve was deployed successfully, but intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) confirmed an acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD), necessitating immediate intervention. Multiple intraoperative imaging modalities were utilized for deployment of a conformable GORE TAG (cTAG) stent graft for thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).

Article Synopsis
- - This article reviews current literature and expert opinions on using iliac branch endoprosthesis (IBE) for treating complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) that also involve the iliac arteries.
- - Around 25% of AAA patients have aneurysms that extend into ilac vessels, complicating standard endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) procedures and requiring careful assessment to ensure proper treatment.
- - The IBE is shown to be an effective and durable treatment option for complex aorto-iliac aneurysms, offering results comparable to open surgery but with lower risks, while also preserving pelvic circulation to avoid potential complications.

Article Synopsis
- Endovascular repair for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) has been the preferred method since 1991, with new techniques like contralateral gate cannulation being developed to enhance the process.
- A new device called the Taofan and Kang (T&K) bidirectional endovascular aortic repair (B-EVAR) was introduced, utilizing a unique approach to deploy stent grafts through both femoral arteries while ensuring safety and effectiveness.
- In a pilot study involving six patients, the T&K B-EVAR showed promising results with no complications or prolonged hospital stays, indicating it simplifies the AAA repair process and could be beneficial for a wider range of patients.
