AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the two-year outcomes of the covered endovascular reconstruction (CERAB) procedure for patients with complex aortoiliac occlusive disease, focusing on a group of 40 patients.
- All patients had a 100% technical success rate with notable improvements in clinical symptoms observed during the follow-up period.
- The patency rates at 36 months were favorable, with primary patency at 85%, indicating that CERAB is effective for treating advanced aorto-occlusive conditions.
Article Abstract
We aimed to investigate the two-year outcomes of covered endovascular reconstruction (CERAB) of the aortic bifurcation in patients with complex aortoiliac occlusive dis ease. This study was prospectively initiated, with data retrospectively collected from 40 patients categorized as TASC II B, C, and D based on computed tomography angiography (CTA) findings. All patients underwent the CERAB procedure. We assessed the procedural outcomes, including clinical and symptomatic improvements, as well as patency rates over a two-year follow-up period. A total of 40 patients (33 males and 7 females) with aorto-occlusive disease were treated using the CERAB procedure and included in this observational study. The technical success rate was 100% across all procedures. At 36 months, the overall primary patency, assisted primary patency, and secondary patency rates were 85%, 90%, and 92.5%, respectively. The two-year results of this study suggest that CERAB offers patency rates comparable to those reported in other studies for complex aorto-occlusive bifurcation diseases. The procedure showed favorable patency rates, particularly for more advanced TASC II B, C, and D lesions.

Introduction: Initial surgical revascularization has a recognized primary role in patients with critical limb-threatening ischemia with a high-quality great saphenous vein for conduit. However, approximately one-third of lower extremity vein grafts develop lesions threatening graft patency. Traditional treatments have limitations, highlighting the need for innovative solutions.

Background: The impact of below-the-knee (BK) runoff after drug-coated balloon (DCB) treatment in femoropopliteal (FP) lesions has not been well investigated.
Methods: This retrospective multicenter observational study enrolled 291 consecutive patients with lower extremity artery disease who underwent endovascular therapy with DCBs for FP lesions between January 2018 and December 2021. Patients were classified into four groups based on the BK runoff.

Background: The number of people undergoing maintenance hemodialysis is increasing rapidly worldwide. Central vein stenosis (CVS) is a common vascular complication in undergoing hemodialysis, especially those with a history of catheterization. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of CVS and the clinical effectiveness of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) alone and sequential percutaneous transluminal stenting (PTS) in hemodialysis patients with CVS.

Introduction: A scoring system to characterize the efficacy of middle meningeal artery (MMA) embolization is lacking and would help predict the likelihood of subdural hematoma resolution.
Methods: We developed a simple angiographic classification system ranging from 0 to 3 for quantifying MMA Patency After Coil Embolization (PACE) based residual flow distal to the embolization. MMA embolizations using coils at our institution were used to validate the PACE score system using procedural angiograms.

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of gelatin/polycaprolactone (GT/PCL) membranes for restoring endometrial structure and function and fertility in a rat model of endometrial injury.
Methods: We randomized 125 female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats to the sham, natural repair (NR), estrogen (E), GT/PCL, and E-GT/PCL groups. Except for the sham group, all rats underwent uterine curettage.
