Introduction: Blunt traumatic aortic injury (TAI) is a critical condition and a leading cause of mortality in trauma patients, often resulting from high-speed accidents. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has developed into the preferred therapeutic approach due to its minimally invasive nature and promising outcomes. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of TEVAR for managing TAI over a 10-year period at a Level-1 trauma center.

During routine open heart surgery, suboptimal flow in the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit, led to the discovery of a type B aortic dissection with substantial flow in the false lumen. Conservative management was chosen, focusing on blood pressure control in the ICU.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the single-energy metal artifact reduction (SEMAR) algorithm in reducing metal artifacts and enhancing image quality in contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) for patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with coil embolization. Thirty-eight patients (mean age 81.0 ± 6 years; 31 men, 7 women) who underwent contrast-enhanced CT following EVAR and internal iliac artery coil embolization between September 2022 and May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.

Objective: We present our experience with endovascular Bentall procedure (Endo-Bentall) using a modular valve conduit (Endo-Bentall) in high-risk patients with aortic root pathologies.
Methods: The physician constructed Endo-Bentall device is composed of a self-expanding transcatheter aortic valve (TAVR), aortic endovascular stent graft (TEVAR), and two wire-reinforced fenestrations for coronary artery stenting. The TAVR valve is sutured into an appropriately sized TEVAR graft.
From Zone -1 to Zone 3: Feasibility and Safety of Complex Endovascular Aortic Repairs in Type A Aortic Dissection.

Objective: Over 30% of patients presenting with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) are considered high - risk or inoperable. This study aims to investigate the early and mid-term outcomes of complex endovascular aortic repair of aortic root, ascending aorta, and aortic arch among patients with ATAAD.
Methods: From January 2018 to January 2023, 29 patients who were considered high risk for open operation underwent endovascular aortic repair.
