The majority of inguinal hernias that are concomitant with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are clinically insignificant. However, management of AAA associated with a complex hernia can be challenging. We report a case of a 72-year-old male with a 7-cm AAA and a massive inguinal hernia involving loss of abdominal domain. Using a multidisciplinary approach, a staged hybrid endovascular and open repair of the AAA was performed followed by hernia repair.

Understanding the impact of racism on surgical outcomes in settler nation-states USA and Canada: a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis.
BMJ Open

Department of Surgery, Alberta Health Services, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Introduction: To improve surgical quality and safety, health systems must prioritise equitable care for surgical patients. Racialised patients experience worse postoperative outcomes when compared with non-racialised surgical patients in settler colonial nation-states. Identifying preventable adverse outcomes for equity-deserving patient populations is an important starting point to begin to address these gaps in care.

Objective: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a readily available parameter, associated with long-term outcomes in cardiovascular conditions. This study aims to analyze the predictors of NLR and its impact on prognosis and disease-specific outcomes following EVAR.
Methods: Single-center retrospective cohort study.

Objectives: To report the technical and clinical outcomes of endovascular repair of all infrarenal, penetrating aortic ulcers (PAU) that were treated at a single institution over a 13-year period.
Methods: This is a single-center, retrospective observational study. All patients consecutively treated for atherosclerotic, infrarenal PAU were included between 2010 and 2023.
Omniflow prosthesis for treatment prosthetic graft infection of the aorto-iliac and femoropopliteal level on the infrarenal aortic segment and lower extremity.

Department of for Cardiovascular Surgery, University Heart Centre Freiburg - Bad Krozingen, University Medical Centre Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany; Faculty of Medicine, Albert Ludwigs University Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany.
Objectives: To report outcomes after the use of the Omniflow II biosynthetic graft (LeMaitre Vascular, Il, USA) for vascular reconstruction in patients with prosthetic infection at the aorto-iliac and femoropopliteal level.
Methods: Within a six-year period, all consecutive patients with aorto-iliac and femoro-popliteal graft infection treated by resection of the infected graft material, extensive local debridement and reconstruction using Omniflow II biosynthetic graft were retrospectively analzyed. Patient characteristics, intraoperative details, postoperative outcomes, and infection details were assessed.

Background: Side-to-side microvascular anastomosis is the most difficult type of anastomosis. The best way to master microvascular anastomosis technique is deliberate practice in the microsurgical laboratory.
Methods: Three types of side-to-side microvascular anastomosis using the rat abdominal vessels were presented.
