Risk Factors, Dynamics, and Clinical Consequences of Aortic Neck Dilatation aft...
Oliveira, N; Oliveira-Pinto, J; Rijn, M; Baart, S; Raa, S; Hoeks, S; Bastos Gonçalves, F; Verhagen, HObjective: Aortic neck dilatation (AND) occurs after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with self expanding stent grafts (SESs). Whether it continues, ultimately exceeding the endograft diameter leading to abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture, remains uncertain. Dynamics, risk factors, and clinical relevance of AND were investigated after EVAR with standard SESs. Methods: All intact EVAR patients treated fr...
Aneurysm Volumes After Endovascular Repair of Ruptured vs Intact Aortic Aneurys...
Oliveira-Pinto, J; Soares Ferreira, R; Oliveira, N; Bouwens, E; Bastos Gonçalves, F; Hoeks, S; Van Rijn, MJ; Ten Raa, S; Mansilha, A; Verhagen, HPurpose: To compare changes in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) sac volume between endovascular aneurysm repairs (EVAR) performed for ruptured (rEVAR) vs intact (iEVAR) AAAs and to determine the impact of early volume shrinkage on future complications. Materials and methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of all patients undergoing standard infrarenal EVAR from 2002 to 2016 at a tertiary referral institu...
Alterações Morfológicas e Consequências Clínicas do Tratamento de Colos Proxima...
Oliveira-Pinto, J; Soares Ferreira, R; Oliveira, N; Bastos Gonçalves, F; Hoeks, S; Rijn, MJ; Raa, S; Mansilha, A; Verhagen, HIntrodução: O tratamento endovascular representa o método de eleição para o tratamento de Aneurismas da Aorta Abdominal (AAA). Existem endopróteses disponíveis com diâmetros do colo proximal até 36mm, que permitem o tratamento de colos proximais até 32 mm. Contudo, a existência de colos largos representa um conhecido preditor de complicações. O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar os resultados a médio-prazo de doen...
Long-Term Results After Standard Endovascular Aneurysm Repair With the Endurant...
Oliveira-Pinto, J; Oliveira, N; Bastos Gonçalves, F; Hoeks, S; Rijn, MJ; Raa, S; Mansilha, A; Verhagen, HObjective: Many endografts are currently available for standard endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms. Comparison of long-term outcomes between devices might aid in this decision process, but comparative data are scarce. The purpose of this study was to report long-term clinical outcomes of two commercially available endoprosthesis, the Endurant (Medtronic Vascular, Inc, Minneapolis, Minn...
Total Luminal Volume Predicts Risk after Endovascular Aneurysm Repair
Oliveira-Pinto, J; Soares Ferreira, R; Oliveira, N; Hoeks, S; Van Rijn, MJ; Raa, ST; Mansilha, A; Verhagen, HJ; Bastos Gonçalves, FObjective: Large aneurysm diameter represents a well known predictor of late complications after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). However, the role of the thrombus free lumen inside the abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) sac is not clear. It was hypothesised that greater luminal volume represents a relevant risk factor for late complications after EVAR. Methods: A retrospective cohort analysis was performed in...
Comparison of Midterm Results of Endovascular Aneurysm Repair for Ruptured and ...
Oliveira-Pinto, J; Soares Ferreira, R; Oliveira, N; Bastos Gonçalves, F; Hoeks, S; Rijn, MJ; Raa, S; Mansilha, A; Verhagen, JMObjective: Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) became an increasingly preferred modality for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair both in elective AAA repair (el-EVAR) and EVAR of a ruptured AAA (r-EVAR) setting. Ruptured AAAs usually have more hostile anatomies and less time for planning. Consequently, more complications may arise after r-EVAR. The purpose of this study was to compare mi-term outcomes betwee...
Anatomic Predictors for Late Mortality after Standard Endovascular Aneurysm Repair
Oliveira, N; Ultee, K; van Rijn, MJ; Pinto, JP; Raa, S; Bastos Gonçalves, F; Hoeks, S; Verhagen, HObjective: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) management involves a decision process that takes into account anatomic characteristics, surgical risks, patients' preferences, and expected survival. Whereas larger AAA diameter has been associated with increased mortality after both standard endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) and open repair, it is unclear whether survival after EVAR is influenced by other anatomic ...
Patients with Large Neck Diameter Have a Higher Risk of Type IA Endoleaks and A...
Oliveira, N; Bastos Gonçalves, F; Ultee, K; Pinto, JP; Rijn, MJ; Raa, S; Mwipatayi, P; Böckler, D; Hoeks, S; Verhagen, HObjective: Standard endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is the most common treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). EVAR has been increasingly used in patients with hostile neck features. This study investigated the outcomes of EVAR in patients with neck diameters ≥30 mm in the prospectively maintained Endurant Stent Graft Natural Selection Global Postmarket Registry (ENGAGE). Methods: This is a retrospe...
Long-Term Outcomes of Standard Endovascular Aneurysm Repair in Patients With Se...
Oliveira, N; Bastos Gonçalves, F; Hoeks, S; Josee van Rijn, M; Ultee, K; Pinto, JP; Raa, S; van Herwaarden, J; de Vries, JP; Verhagen, HObjective: Severe neck angulation is associated with complications after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Newer endografts may overcome this limitation, but the literature lacks long-term results. We studied the long-term outcomes of EVAR in patients with severe neck angulation. Methods: A retrospective case-control study of a prospective multicenter database was performed. All measurements were made with d...
Perioperative Complications Are Associated With Adverse Long-Term Prognosis and...
Tjeertes, E; Ultee, K; Stolker, R; Verhagen, H; Bastos Gonçalves, F; Hoofwijk, A; Hoeks, SBACKGROUND: It is unclear how mortality and causes of death vary between patients and surgical procedures and how occurrence of postoperative complications is associated with prognosis. This study describes long-term mortality rates and causes of death in a general surgical population. Furthermore, we explore the effect of postoperative complications on mortality. METHODS: A single-centre analysis of postoperat...
