Contemporary analysis of descending thoracic and thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair: a comparison of endovascular and open techniques.
BACKGROUND Endovascular repair of thoracic aneurysm has demonstrated low risks of mortality and spinal cord ischemia (SCI), but few large series have been published on endovascular thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair, and reports suffer from a lack of accurate comparison with similar open surgical procedures. METHODS AND RESULTS A consecutive cohort of patients with thoracic and thoracoabdominal...
متن کاملOpen repair of ruptured descending thoracic and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the results of the open repair of ruptured thoracic and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. METHODS From January 1997, a total of 100 consecutive open repairs of ruptured thoracic or thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms were performed (43 thoracic and 57 thoracoabdominal). These patients were compared with contemporary cases that underwent repair of corresponding intact aneu...
متن کاملSpinal Cord Protection for Descending or Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
The mortality and morbidity of extensive thoracoabdominal aorta replacement has improved markedly in recent years [1]. However, postoperative paraplegia from spinal cord infarction remains the most devastating complication that faces patients undergoing surgery on the thoracoabdominal aorta because loss of lowerlimb function imposes severe constraints on the quality of life. Additionally, parap...
متن کاملTreatment of a rapidly expanding thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm after endovascular repair of descending thoracic aortic aneurysm in an old patient
BACKGROUND Aortic pathology progression and/or procedure related complications following endovascular repair should always be considered mostly in older patients. We herein describe a hybrid procedure for treatment of rapidly expanding thoracoabdominal aneurysm following endovascular treatment of a descending thoracic aortic aneurysm in an older patient. CASE PRESENTATION A 82-year-old man at...
