Assessment of EVAR Complications using CIRSE Complication Classification System in the UK Tertiary Referral Centre: A ∼6-Year Retrospective Analysis …
2021
Purpose: To retrospectively analyse complications in endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) interventions and evaluate if the CIRSE (Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe) complication classification system is appropriate as a standardized classification tool for EVAR patients. Materials and Methods: Demographic, procedural and complication data in 719 consecutive patients undergoing EVAR at one institution from January 2014 to October 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Data (imaging reports, procedural reports, nurse notes, discharge summary reports) were collected consulting the electronic patient record system (EPR) of the hospital and cleaned and stored in a Micro…
Endovascular Treatment of Giant Visceral Aneurysms: An Overview
2021
Giant visceral aneurysms (or pseudoaneurysms) are aneurysmal lesions of the splanchnic vessels that are larger than 5 cm in diameter. As with other visceral aneurysms, treatment may be either surgical or endovascular. Both treatments face challenges given the anatomical complexity of such lesions. However, in the era of novel tools and techniques that have been developed in this field, an increasing number of giant visceral aneurysms can now be treated using endovascular approaches. The purpose of this article is to offer an overview of the most current techniques and trends in the endovascular treatment of giant visceral artery aneurysms.
