AI Article Synopsis
- - The case involves a 56-year-old man suffering from claudication due to stenosis of the popliteal artery linked to adventitial cystic disease.
- - An endovascular stenting procedure was performed and initially deemed technically successful but failed to maintain patency beyond one week.
- - Consequently, the patient required a more invasive solution, which was an interposition venous graft reconstruction, to address the issue effectively.
Article Abstract
We describe an attempted endovascular stenting for popliteal artery stenosis secondary to adventitial cystic disease in a 56-year-old man with lifestyle-limiting claudication. Despite technical success, it remained patent only for 1 week, requiring interposition venous graft reconstruction eventually.

The popliteal artery segment is particularly challenging for endovascular treatment. Stents used for treating popliteal artery lesions are usually associated with an increased risk of stent fracture and re-occlusion. The Supera stent is designed to withstand mechanical stress, with a low risk of fracture.

An a (AEF) is a rare but life-threatening condition where an abnormal connection forms between the aorta and the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly the duodenum. It can be primary (arising spontaneously due to an aortic aneurysm or infection) or secondary (complicating prior vascular surgery). Immediate recognition and surgical intervention are critical to manage severe gastrointestinal bleeding and prevent fatal outcomes.

Objective: Emergent complex abdominal aortic diseases are challenging to treat. During in situ laser fenestration (ISLF), aortic branches are covered and flow is restored with in situ fenestration of the stent graft, with promising midterm results. This study aimed to expand on the limited body of knowledge of midterm outcomes of ISLF in renovisceral aortic pathology in a multicentre setting.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a common treatment for severe aortic stenosis (AS), but it carries the risk of severe complications, including device embolization. We present a case of a TAVR valve embolization into the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT), diagnosed with transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) shortly after device deployment. The dislodged valve was successfully retrieved from the LVOT into the aorta, flattened, and stabilized with a thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) stent, enabling the successful implantation of a new TAVR valve.
