Division of Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy, Department of Surgery, University of Chicago Medicine, Chicago, IL, USA -

Aortoiliac occlusive disease (AIOD) has traditionally been repaired with open surgery. However, with advancements in endovascular devices and techniques, many have adopted endovascular first approach, even for complex lesions. Stenting is the fundamental technique for endovascular treatment of AIOD, has been proven to be effective and safe.

: Chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI) is a significant life and limb-threatening condition. Two recent seminal trials, BEST-CLI and BASIL-2, have provided seemingly conflicting results concerning the optimal treatment modality for patients with CLTI. We sought to investigate the outcomes of patient undergoing infrainguinal bypass at two centres in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Vascular Surgery Unit, Department of Translational Research and New Technologies in Medicine and Surgery, University of Pisa, Pisa, Italy.

Introduction: Endovascular therapy has gradually gaining more importance for the treatment of common femoral artery (CFA) occlusive disease due to satisfactory perioperative outcomes. However, endovascular interventions seem to provide acceptable outcomes only in the short-term period. Endarterectomy still remains the gold standard with well-established mid- and long-term outcomes.

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is the lower limb manifestation of systemic atherosclerotic disease. PAD may initially present with symptoms of intermittent claudication, whilst chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI), the end stage of PAD, presents with rest pain and/or tissue loss. PAD is an age-related condition present in over 10% of those aged ≥65 in high-income countries.

Background And Objectives: Limited evidence exists for endovascular first-line treatment of Spetzler-Martin (SM) grade III brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). In this article, we sought to evaluate advanced endovascular techniques for treating SM III AVMs across different sizes, eloquence, and patterns of venous drainage.

Methods: Data from AVMs SM III treated between January 2010 and January 2022 were collected: size (S), eloquence (E), drainage (V), angioarchitecture features (arterial and venous aneurysms, venous drainage, and venous stenosis), treatment strategy (single arterial, double arterial, venous, both arterial and venous, and transvenous endovascular embolization with selective temporary flow arrest [TFATVE]), neoadjuvant treatment, and number of previous embolization sessions.
