» Increased clinical frailty is associated with aortic-related mortality following fenestrated and branched endovascular repair for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm
14/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
Clinical frailty is associated with reduced long-term survival following fenestrated and branched endovascular aortic repair (F/BEVAR). This study assesses the impact of phenotypic clinical frailty on perioperative outcomes and cause of ...

» The Effect of Aneurysm Diameter on Perioperative Outcomes Following Endovascular Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
14/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
Endovascular repair of large-diameter infrarenal and complex abdominal aortic aneurysms has been associated with worse outcomes. Whether these associations also apply to thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms remains unclear.

» The Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative Underestimates the Risk Associated with Mild Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury
14/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
Recently the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP) lowered the thresholds for acute kidney injury (AKI) to align with the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) definition (>0.3...

» Non-Contrast Magnetic Resonance Angiography Outperforms Digital Subtraction Angiography in Detecting Hibernating Below-The-Knee Arteries and Downgrades TASC and GLASS Scores in CLTI Patients
14/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
Current imaging techniques are limited in their ability to accurately characterize below-the-knee diseased vessels. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) remains the gold standard but may not visualize some vessels because it relies on n...

» Predictors and Outcomes of Surgical Delay in Open Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
10/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
The objectives of this study are to characterize surgical waiting times experienced by patients undergoing elective open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair, as well as to identify predictors and adverse outcomes associated with surgi...

» Periprocedural Outcomes of Embolic Protection Device Use in Carotid Artery Stenting
10/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is frequently used in the management of carotid artery stenosis. Although use of embolic protection devices (EPD) is common, the association with lower mortality has been questioned. We aimed to assess the a...

» Preoperative Risk Score for Mortality Within Three Years of Non-Emergent TEVAR for Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm
10/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
The purpose of this study is to create a validated risk score for mortality within three years of elective endovascular repair of descending thoracic aortic aneurysm (TEVAR) based on variables existing at the time of preoperative clinica...

» One-year Clinical Outcomes of Delayed Referral and Subsequent Management in Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia
08/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
This study assessed the effect of delayed referral on clinical outcomes in individuals with chronic limb-threatening ischemia, characterized associated patient factors, and explored real-world reasons for referral delays in Japan.

» Laser In Situ Fenestrated Endograft (LIFE) Repair of Complex Aortic Arch Pathology: Early Outcomes from the Multicenter LIFE Registry
08/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
Endovascular repair of aortic arch pathologies is limited by currently available device configurations, variation in aortic arch anatomy, access challenges, and frequent non-elective surgical acuity. The present study aims to assess the ...

» A case of Behcet's disease complicated with multiple false aneurysms of the aorta
07/10/25 00:00 from Journal of Vascular Surgery
A 35-year-old male presented acutely with sudden-onset severe pain and a pulsatile mass in the right inguinal region, prompting emergency admission. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) revealed multiple pseudoaneurysms involving the ao...
