Biomedical Research in Endstage and Obstructive Lung Disease Hannover, German Center for Lung Research, Hannover, Germany; Institute of Pathology, University of Aachen, Aachen, Germany.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers compared lung tissue samples from children with ACD, adults with non-specific interstitial pneumonia, and healthy controls, using advanced techniques like transmission electron microscopy and transcriptome profiling.
  • * Findings revealed that in ACD, capillary basement membranes are abnormally thick and multilayered, while certain gene expressions related to vascular structure are altered, suggesting potential therapeutic targets to address these abnormalities.

Objective: Common iliac artery aneurysms are present in more than a third of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm and may pose a challenge during open and endovascular repair. Although embolization of the internal iliac artery is an established method, it may be complicated with buttock claudication, erectile dysfunction, colon ischemia, and pelvic necrosis. Iliac branch devices (IBDs), which permit preservation of the hypogastric artery, have been used to prevent these complications.

Cervical Debranching in the Endovascular Era: A Single Centre Experience.

Eur J Vasc Endovasc Surg

July 2019

Department of Vascular Medicine, German Aortic Centre Hamburg, University Heart Centre, Hamburg, Germany; Department of Vascular Surgery, University Hospital of Ludwig-Maximilian University Munich, Munich, Germany. Electronic address:

Objective/background: Debranching of the supra-aortic arteries is a common practice either as part of a hybrid treatment of aortic arch pathology or owing to arterial occlusive disease. Results of the debranching techniques have not been reported frequently.

Methods: This was a retrospective single centre study of all consecutive patients with cervical debranching procedures as part of hybrid aortic arch repair.
