AAA-SHAPE – Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Sac Healing and Prevention ... Key endpoints will compare sac diameter and volume change, endoleak rates, and secondary interventions.

However, most of the endoleaks did not require any additional procedure. The included studies did not consistently report the extent of aortic coverage and location of endografts; hence ...

Aortic rupture occurred in only 3.8% of cases ... The Achilles heel in stent graft therapy is incomplete sealing with an early endoleak. Of course, most endoleaks appear at either the proximal ...

Objectives Differentiation between normal and abnormal features of vascular ageing is crucial, as the latter is associated with adverse outcomes. The normal aortic ageing process is accompanied by ...

The mechanism of action of NIUT consists of generating microscopic cavitation bubbles with short, high-pressure ultrasound pulses focused on the AV. As cavitation bubbles collapse, they produce shock ...

However, the double and triple chimney techniques should be used cautiously as they seem to have a higher risk for type IA endoleak and adverse events after the operation. The aim of our study was to ...

Backgrounds and Objectives: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has currently become the “first-line choice” for descending aortic pathologies. For pathologies located at the aortic arch, ...
