Hybrid Arch Aneurysm Repair With Ascending Aortic Wrap and TEVAR.

J Endovasc Ther

January 2025

Aortic Center, Hôpital Marie-Lannelongue, Groupe Hospitalier Paris Saint Joseph, Université Paris-Saclay, INSERM UMR_S 999, Le Plessis Robinson, France.

Introduction: Management of patients with large aortic arch aneurysms who are considered high risk for frozen elephant trunk technique have been challenging, especially when they have a dilated ascending aorta (AA) that precludes total endovascular branched repair (arch BEVAR). A viable option in our armamentarium is wrapping of the AA (AW), and zone 0 Ishimaru TEVAR.

Methods: Retrospective analysis of our aortic database from 2013 to 2024 to select high-risk patients with aortic arch aneurysm that had an AW and TEVAR.

Hybrid Repair of Ascending Aortic Intramural Hematoma and Arch Ulcer in a 74-Year-Old Woman - A Case Report.

Am J Case Rep

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Fujian Heart Medical Center, Union Hospital, Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, Fujian, China.

BACKGROUND Acute intramural hematoma (IMH) of the ascending thoracic aorta and aortic arch is a life-threatening condition, particularly in elderly patients with comorbidities, due to its risk of progression and rupture. Unlike aortic dissection, IMH lacks an intimal tear, influencing both clinical presentation and treatment strategy. This report describes a 74-year-old hypertensive woman with type A IMH and a penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer (PAU), managed with a hybrid surgical approach that combines external Dacron wrapping of the ascending aorta and endovascular stenting of the aortic arch with in-situ fenestration of the supra-aortic arteries.

The mediastinal vasculature can be affected by various etiologies in cancer patients. Both direct and indirect sequela of cancer may result in life-threatening clinical presentations. Tumor growth may cause vessel narrowing and decreased blood flow from either extrinsic mass effect, invasion into the vascular wall, or tumor thrombus within the lumen.

Purpose: Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is a rare form of chronic vasculitis that is common in Asian female. As TAK predominantly affects young female with a longer life expectancy than those with atherosclerotic diseases, assessing the specific long-term outcomes of TAK treatment is important. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcomes and post-procedural complications of surgical and endovascular treatment for TAK.

Fenestration of the vertebral artery in a polytrauma patient: A vascular anatomical variant.

J Med Vasc

December 2024

Service d'imagerie médicale, Hôpital national d'instruction des Armées-Percy, 2, rue du Lieutenant-Raoul-Batany, 92140 Clamart, France.

Fenestration of the vertebral artery is a rare vascular anatomical variant that can mimic a dissection if discovered during cervical trauma. It is important to diagnose it through computed tomography (CT) angiography or magnetic resonance (MR) angiography in order to best guide the patient's management.
