Review of the literature

A brief history of surgical repair of the abdominal aortic aneurysm

Since India’s Sushruta (800-600 BC) first reported that "aneurysms can be cured only with the greatest difficulty", the majority of surgeons shared a fear of aortic surgery till the first half of the 20th century. The surgical treatment of AAA became available only in the second half of the 20th century. This presentation summarizes the most important historical milestones in AAA surgery.

Experimental investigation

In-vitro experimental investigation of different bridging stent-grafts for fEVAR

Giovanni Torsello (Vascular Surgeon, GER) presents and discusses with the experts the latest results from an experimental head-to-head investigation of different bridging stent-grafts (BSG) used in fenestrated aortic endografting.
How does the material respond to balloon dilatation? Which are the forces that might lead to the dislocation of the BSG from a fenestration? Endoleak of unknown origin after fEVAR: could be associated with material fatigue?

Case report

Periscope and Chimney-EVAR for a ruptured AAA following infrarenal EVAR

Despite the latest advances in both endovascular field and open repair, a ruptured AAA still remains one of the most challenging situations in vascular medicine. This case shows the use of chimney and periscope grafts for the treatment of a Type Ia Endoleak in patient presenting with a ruptured AAA.

Review of the literature

Paraplegia after endovascular TAAA-repair:

Why does the endovascular TAAA repair increase the risk of spinal cord ischemia (SCI)? Which are the challenges? How can you prevent SCI during complex endovascular TAAA repair? Do we have enough evidence for the prohylactic use of cerebrospinal fluid drainage in the endovascular treatment of complex TAAAs?
