目的 初步评估Valiant Captivia主动脉覆膜支架在主动脉Stanford B型夹层主动脉腔内修复术（thoracic endovascular aortic repair,TEVAR）中应用的有效性及安全性.方法 收集从2012年1月至2012年6月在广东省人民医院住院,行Stanford B型主动脉夹层TEVAR,并使用Valiant支架传统输送系统或新一代Captivia输送系统的Valiant覆膜支架系统、病历资料完整的患者共40例.其中使用Valiant组25例,使用Captivia组15例.所有患者采用局部麻醉,经皮穿刺技术,使用快速右心室起搏进行起搏过程中控制性降压,通过造影进行支架定位.比较两组的移植物定位准确性、手术时间、内漏和并发症发生率等.结果 两组的基线资料包括年龄、性别及并发疾病、基础血压、支架释放时血压及介入后血压比较,差异无统计学意义（P＞0.05）.两组围术期心率包括基础、支架释放时,及介入治疗后心率和手术时间比较,差异无统计学意义（P＞0.05）.但从移植物定位准确性看,Captivia组与Valiant组相比较少产生移植物移位,差异有统计学意义[（4.9±2.4）mm vs.（3.3±1.8）mm,P=0.028].两组支架释放后即时造影发现残留内漏发生率及术后出现脊髓缺血的发生率比较,差异无统计学意义（P＞0.05）.结论 与原Valiant支架相比,新一代使用后释放设计的Valiant（R） Captivia支架释放时能更安全、简便地调整支架位置,有助于支架的精确释放.     

Lengthening of proximal implantation site during endovascular repair of thoracic aortic aneurysm: Preservation of carotid patency with retrograde trans endograft deployment of a carotid stent

Endovascular repair of descending thoracic aortic aneurysms with a reduced proximal implantation site represents a technical challenge. Surgical procedures before endovascular exclusion can be necessary to increase the length of the proximal landing site to avoid type 1 endoleaks. We present a case of endovascular exclusion of a descending thoracic aortic aneurysm with the endograft placed proximal to the left common carotid artery. Flow to this arch was preserved reconstructing the carotid ostium with the retrograde implantation of a carotid stent that was placed extending across an orifice created in the deployed endograft by puncture and balloon dilatation. © 2008 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Endovascular maneuvers for contralateral stent graft limb misplacement in endovascular aortic repair

Cannulation and placement of the contralateral stent graft limb during endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) procedure are crucial steps as mispositioning may lead to conversion to open aortic repair. Endovascular bail-out strategies for stent graft relocation in EVAR are underreported though detailed knowledge may facilitate application and prevent conversion. We present three endovascular bail-out strategies for repositioning of a mispositioned contralateral stent graft limb. (1) Retraction of the mispositioned component with an inflated reliant balloon and placement of an interposition stent graft after successful cannulation; (2) Push-maneuver of the mispositioned stent graft into the infrarenal aortic aneurysm with an inflated reliant balloon supported by a large lumen introducer sheath and (3) Parallel placement of a second contralateral stent graft limb displacing the mispositioned one against the atrial wall in cases with adequate vessel diameter. Prevention of stent graft mispositioning by applying recognized tests to ensure correct placement are essential, following the slogan: check twice, deploy once.     

Risk factors for distal stent graft-induced new entry following endovascular repair of type B aortic dissection

Background

Distal stent graft-induced new entry (DSINE) has been increasingly observed following thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for type B aortic dissection (TBAD). We seek to identify the risk factors for DSINE following TEVAR in patients with TBAD.

Methods

Between January 2009 and January 2013, we performed TEVAR for 579 patients with TBAD. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed with univariate and multivariate analyses to identify the risk factors for DSINE.

Results

Two patients (0.3%) died after the initial TEVAR. Morbidity included spinal cord injury in 2 (0.3%), stroke in 3 (0.5%) and endoleak in 12 (2.1%) patients. Clinical and radiological follow-up was complete in 100% (577/577) averaging 47±16 months. Late death occurred in 6 patients. DSINE occurred in 39 patients (6.7%) at mean 22±17 months after the initial TEVAR, which was managed with re-TEVAR in 25 and medically in 14. At 33±18 months after DSINE, 11 of patients managed medically (11/14) and all patients managed with re-TEVAR (25/25) survived (P=0.048). Freedom from DSINE was 92.7% at 5 years (95% CI: 90.0-94.7%). Using tapered stent grafts with a proximal end 4-8 mm larger than the distal end, TEVAR performed in the acute phase (≤14 days from onset) was associated with a significantly lower incidence of DSINE than TEVAR performed in the chronic phase (4.3%, 7/185 vs. 13.9%, 15/108; P=0.003). Risk factors for DSINE were stent grafts less than 145 mm in length [odds ratio (OR) 2.268; 95% CI: 1.121-4.587; P=0.023] and TEVAR performed in the chronic phase (OR 1.935; 95% CI: 1.004-3.731; P=0.049).

Conclusions

Our results show that TEVAR performed during the acute phase and using stent grafts longer than 145 mm could decrease the incidence of DSINE in patients with TBAD. Tapered stent grafts with a proximal end 4-8 mm larger than the distal end may be helpful in preventing DSINE after TEVAR performed in the acute phase than TEVAR performed in the chronic phase, due to the difference in mobility of the dissected flap. Expedite repeat TEVAR is recommended to improve the clinical prognosis for patients with DSINE.

Endovascular stent-grafts treatment in acute aortic dissection (type B): clinical outcomes during early, late, or chronic phases.

OBJECTIVE: This is a prospective study to evaluate the clinical outcomes of endovascular repair in patients with different phases of type B aortic dissection. BACKGROUND: Endovascular repairing with stent-grafts is an innovative technique for type B acute aortic dissection. There is no previous study regarding outcomes in different time phases. METHODS: Sixty-two patients underwent endovascular stent-grafts. There were 23 in the early phase (<24 hr), 20 in the late phase (>or=24 hr to 2 weeks), and 19 in the chronic phase (>2 weeks). RESULTS: The early phase group had the lowest ratio of stent-grafts to patient and the shortest stent-graft length. The chronic phase group had the largest diameter of false lumen. The technical success rate was 100%; no patient died within hospital. Three patients died within 30 days, with the same death rate in every group. Compared with acute patients, the chronic group had a higher volume of contrast, a higher creatinine post-procedure, and a higher incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy. Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that creatinine and endoleak were independent factors in predicting late death (95% CI, 3.4-26%, P < 0.01). The overall cardiovascular event-free survival was 88.9% +/- 2.1% at 30 days, 87.2% +/- 4.1% at 1 year, and 81.4% +/- 6.3% at 2 years. CT angiography identified the complete or partial thrombosis of the false lumen to be 95.7%. CONCLUSIONS: Endovascular repairing with stent-graft is safe, feasible, and able to treat type B aortic dissection in all phases. However, chronic renal dysfunction was an independent factor which contributed to a lower survival rate of chronic phase patients.

“The chimney graft”—A simple technique for endovascular repair of complex juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms in no‐option patients

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has developed as a less invasive alternative to open surgery for patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. However, patients with very short infrarenal necks require complex surgical open repair, which is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. The risk of complex open repair may be prohibitive in high‐risk patients. Thus, modifying the technique of EVAR may be required in such patients to successfully exclude aneurysms. An alternative that can be used in these patients is the so‐called “chimney graft” technique. We report two cases where the chimney graft technique was used with good immediate results. © 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
