Reentry Devices for Lamella Neofenestration During Endovascular Aortic Repair of Chronic Type B Aortic Dissection.

چکیده
PURPOSE To present a technique that creates a neofenestration in the dissecting lamella of chronic aortic dissections using standard or intravenous ultrasound (IVUS)-guided reentry devices. TECHNIQUE To create a neofenestration, a standard or IVUS-guided reentry device is deployed in either the true or false aortic lumen while a balloon is simultaneously inflated in the opposite lumen to stabilize the lamella, provide needle counterforce, and prevent displacement of the lamella away from the reentry needle. Once the lamella is perforated and a guidewire passed across the 2 lumens, progressive dilation of the neofenestration is performed to establish persistent communication. CONCLUSION The balloon-supported lamella neofenestration technique involving off-label application of two currently available reentry devices can be applied to endovascular treatment chronic aortic dissections. While the technique will definitely not become a standard of practice, it provides a safe, effective, and readily available option for endovascular management of those patients with complex chronic aortic dissections requiring bailout maneuvers or elective treatment.

Stanford type A acute aortic dissection (AAD) is a very rare complication, with potentially lethal consequences in pregnancy. In fact, pregnancy has been regularly associated with the possibility of aortic. dissection in almost half of young women. Herein, we present the case of a 38-year-old woman in her 37th week of pregnancy. The patient’s medical history was indicative of G4L2Ab1(4 gestaiti...

The classical therapeutic indication for type B aortic dissection is based on either medication or open surgery; medication therapy is recommended for relatively stable uncomplicated type B aortic dissection. With improvements in endovascular repair and the potential risk of disease progression, it is now necessary to evaluate the requirement for revision of the therapeutic choice of uncomplica...

Mycotic aortic aneurysms account for 1–3% of all aortic aneurysms. The management of this disease is controversial. Since open surgical repair is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, endovascular aneurysm repair is an alternative treatment method with promising early and midterm outcomes, although its long-term durability is unknown.Secondary aortoenteric fistulas may occur iatro...
