AI Article Synopsis
- A review of literature highlights the distinct outcomes of using different uncoated metal stents, specifically noting that results from the Djumbodis stent should not be applied to the E-XL stent, which is primarily intended for sealing and optimizing conditions for TEVAR.
- The use of uncoated metal stents in aortic dissection surgery is deemed acceptable, but there are challenges that need addressing to improve the effectiveness and safety of these devices.
- There is a call for establishing clear guidelines regarding when to use uncoated metal stents in surgical cases.
Article Abstract
Presented herein is a review of the literature concerning the use of uncoated metal stents in surgery of aortic dissection. A conclusion was drawn that the results of using the Djumbodis stent should not be directly extrapolated to the outcomes obtained in case of the E-XL stent which had mainly been used for hermetic sealing and for creation of optimal conditions for TEVAR. It is pointed out that the use of uncoated metal stents in aortic surgery is acceptable, however, it is required to solve a series of problems associated with elimination of certain shortcomings of the available devices. Also, it is necessary to work out clear-cut indications for using these stents.
