Background: Abelacimab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to the inactive form of factor XI and blocks its activation. The safety of abelacimab as compared with a direct oral anticoagulant in patients with atrial fibrillation is unknown.

Methods: Patients with atrial fibrillation and a moderate-to-high risk of stroke were randomly assigned, in a 1:1:1 ratio, to receive subcutaneous injection of abelacimab (150 mg or 90 mg once monthly) administered in a blinded fashion or oral rivaroxaban (20 mg once daily) administered in an open-label fashion.

Basilar artery perforator aneurysms (BAPAs) are rare and may be occult on initial imaging due to their small size and susceptibility to intermittent thrombosis.1 2 Conventional treatments for aneurysms (eg, clipping or coiling) have proved challenging.3 Recently, endovascular electrocoagulation has been shown to be effective for BAPAs.

Caliber mismatch in microvascular anastomosis can significantly increase procedural difficulty and elevate the risk of thrombosis. A comprehensive literature search in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar was conducted to identify articles addressing surgical techniques for overcoming caliber mismatch in microvascular anastomosis. Various techniques described in the literature were found: modifications of end-to-end anastomosis, the use of end-to-side anastomosis, the application of vessel grafts and the use of vessel couplers.

Background: Fenestrated endografts have been a safe and effective solution in our institution for patients with juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) that were not candidates for conventional repair and had suitable anatomy. The objective of our study was to evaluate the long-term outcomes of these interventions.

Methods: Between September 2005 and December 2021, this study included all the patients bearing juxtarenal aneurysm electively treated with a fenestrated endograft.
