Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a condition that is quite variable. People are often diagnosed when they have easy and frequent bruising that is not explained by other causes, a spontaneous bowel, or arterial tears, or because other family members are affected. Some people have characteristic facial features, thin skin, and tissue fragility, while in others the diagnosis is only made after the identification of an alteration in the type III collagen gene, COL3A1. Many people have a difficult time getting diagnosed and getting appropriate management. Dr. Peter Byers,  Professor of Pathology and Medicine, UW Medical Center and a member of The Marfan Foundation’s Professional Advisory Board, who is one of the leading experts on vEDS, provided an overview at The Marfan Foundation’s 35th Annual Conference in Houston, TX, July 13, 2019.

Recorded video case

Open surgical repair of a pararenal AAA

In this video case, we present our standard practice of open surgical repair for pararenal AAA. In general, we performed open repair with the “clamp and sew” technique, and the application of cold renal perfusion is limited to the cases with renal revascularization. Sometimes, division of left renal vein is imperative for better access to the suprarenal aorta. Retrospective analysis of our series revealed no negative impact of the division on long-term renal function – J Vasc Surg 2018;67:1042-1

How to perform Carotid Artery Stenting. Perugia way to do it

Carotid artery stenting is a delicate surgery being sometimes as fast as insidious.

We strongly believe that in order to minimize complications rate an almost obsessive attention to details in each procedural moment is essential.

In this video we report probably the most standardized procedure performed at our institution with 6 operators currently doing each passage exactly the same way.

Of course we don’t claim to show the way it should be done, but just the way we learned to do it after more than 3000 performed cases
