Filter by: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.
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.
