Lumbar backbleeding from an opened aortic aneurysm may be very troublesome. Suturing of these ostia is occasionally difficult because of an unyielding calcified vessel wall. We describe a new technique utilizing warm bone wax to occlude these ostia.

Cellular Senescence Genes as Cutting-Edge Signatures for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Diagnosis: Potential for Innovative Therapeutic Interventions.

J Cell Mol Med

State Key Laboratory of Frigid Zone Cardiovascular Diseases, Cardiovascular Research Institute and Department of Cardiology, General Hospital of Northern Theater Command, Shenyang, China.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is the most prevalent dilated arterial aneurysm that poses a significant threat to older adults, but the molecular mechanisms linking senescence to AAA progression remain poorly understood. This study aims to identify cellular senescence-related genes (SRGs) implicated in AAA development and assess their potential as therapeutic targets. Four hundred and twenty-nine differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified from the GSE57691 training set, and 867 SRGs were obtained.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Interventricular Membranous Septal Aneurysms.

JACC Case Rep

January 2025

Interventional Cardiology Section, Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Department of Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California, USA.

Aneurysms of the interventricular membranous septum are a rare anatomical feature that can be detected incidentally on computed tomography or echocardiography. Such aneurysms can pose challenges in the treatment of patients with aortic valve stenosis. A case series of 2 patients with membranous septal aneurysms treated successfully with current-generation balloon-expandable and self-expanding transcatheter heart valves is presented here.

Purpose: To investigate the influence of antithrombotic therapy on occurrence of thrombotic and bleeding complications after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).

Methods: In this retrospective single-center cohort study, patients who underwent elective endovascular aneurysm repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm were categorized into three antithrombotic groups: single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT), anticoagulants, or dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). Outcome measures were the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), prosthetic limb occlusions, and bleeding complications during follow-up.
