Filter by:This study aims to evaluate the clinical, imaging results of endovascular revascularization of the aorto-iliac sector in comparison with aortobifemoral bypass and the hybrid approach, in patients with atherosclerotic disease of the iliac sector classified as type C and D by the TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC II
Background: The treatment of patients with complex aortoiliac disease (AID), classified as Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society consensus II (TASC) class C and D, presents a dilemma for vascular surgeons. Current guidelines recommend either open surgical reconstruction (OR), hybrid repair (HR) combining iliac stenting with femoral endarterectomy, or total endovascular repair (ER). While traditional OR with aortobifemoral bypass (ABF) is associated with excellent long term patency results, it is associated with significant perioperative morbidity with some studies citing mortality rates of up to 4-8%. The advancement of endovascular techniques has led to many trials suggesting that endovascular management of TASC II C and D lesions is a potential alternative treatment to open strategies mainly in the subset of patients with high surgical risk, given the substantially less perioperative morbidity and mortality compared to OR. Aim: The aim of this trial is to evaluate the short, mid-, and long-term results of open repair, hybrid and endovascular repair in the treatment patients with complex, TASC C and D, aortoiliac lesions. Methodology: This is a retrospective cohort study planning to include vascular surgery centers from the following countries: Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Serbia. Data will be collected on demographics, baseline comorbidities, anatomy and morphology of the aortoiliac and femoral bifurcation disease, intraoperative, postoperative, and follow-up data. Propensity score analysis will be performed by matching open repair patients in all three groups (open, hybrid, and endovascular repair) controlling for demographics, baseline comorbidities, anatomical and morphological data. Endpoints: Primary endpoints are all-cause mortality and the major adverse limb events (major amputation - below and above the knee, new onset acute limb ischaemia, reintervention of the treated arterial segment). The secondary endpoints are the 30-day complications and primary patency.
The covered endovascular reconstruction of aortic bifurcation (CERAB) technique was described l in 2013 to reconstruct the aortic bifurcation in a more anatomical and physiological way. With the use of this technique, a covered stent is expanded 15 to 20 mm above the aortic bifurcation and this stent is proximally adapted to the aortic wall with a larger balloon, thereby creating a cone-shaped stent. Two iliac covered stents are then placed in the distal conic segment and simultaneously inflated, making a tight connection with the aortic stent, as if they were molded together, thus simulating a new bifurcation. This minimal invasive endovascular technique using covered stents, was developed in order to optimize endovascular mimicking the anatomical configuration of the aortic bifurcation and in an attempt to overcome the disadvantages of kissing stents influenced by geometric factors such as radial mismatch, protrusion mismatch and stent conformation. The use of BeGraft (balloon-expandalbe covered stent) and Solaris (self-expandable covered stent) fro this technique is revised.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare single shot rectus sheath blocks of liposomal bupivacaine/bupivacaine mixture to bilateral rectus sheath catheters infused with ropivacaine (standard of care at our facility) in patients undergoing vascular surgery with an open mid-abdominal laparotomy incision. This study will examine the difference in the highest, lowest, average, and current pain scores reported at the end of 24-48 postoperative hours using the brief pain inventory-short form (BPI-SF). Participants will be randomized to either receive a single dose of liposomal bupivacaine/bupivacaine mixture intraoperatively at the end of surgery through bilateral rectus sheath blocks (LB/B group) or to receive the standard of care ropivacaine intraoperatively at the end of surgery through bilateral rectus sheath blocks with the insertion of bilateral RS catheter for continuous ropivacaine infusion plus repeated daily boluses (Catheter group; standard care). They will be assessed for a difference in postoperative pain scores, opioid consumption, hospital and PACU length of stay, patient's satisfaction, and quality of recovery. Additionally, we will examine the resources consumed by each intervention, including the medication cost (ropivacaine vs. LB/bupivacaine mixture), block and catheter supply, hospital length of stay, and anesthesia billing time.
The objective of this prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial is to demonstrate the superiority of the VBX Device for primary patency when compared to bare metal stenting in complex iliac occlusive disease.
From July 2015 to July 2018, 64 patients with aortoiliac occlusive disease who were eligible for endovascular treatment and lacked contraindications to either iodine contrast or carbon dioxide (CO2) were randomized into the carbon dioxide CO2 group(32) or iodine contrast medium(ICM) group(32) were subjected to aortoiliac angioplasty. The primary outcome was the quality of image as the sole contrast agent used in interventions. The secondary outcomes were technical success rate and the safety of procedure.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the CERAB technique as an alternative to surgical reconstruction for treatment of aorto-iliac occlusive disease.
Patients with severe atherosclerotic occlusive disease can be operated on with an aortobifemoral bypass(ABFB)through a median laparotomy. Since 1993, this operation has also been performed laparoscopically. The laparoscopic ABFB operation claims to be minimally invasive as compared to the open ABFB. The cohort studies published so far have shown that although a longer operation time with the laparoscopic procedure as compared to the open surgery, the patients have a shorter hospital stay, lesser perioperative bleeding, fewer systemic complications, and earlier convalescence. However, no randomized control trial has yet been published to compare the two procedures. In the NLAST-study, which is a multicenter randomized control trial, the patients with TASC type D atherosclerotic lesions shall be randomized to either totally laparoscopic aortobifemoral bypass operation (LABFB)or an open ABFB operation.
