Patologia Vascular Arterial no Serviço Nacional de Saúde - Relatório do Período...

Introdução: A análise de bases de dados administrativas, consistindo em codificação hospitalar, é uma importante ferramenta para melhorar o conhecimento e a gestão de cuidados de saúde. Através destas, é possível avaliar tendências e proceder à monitorização e avaliação de resultados. Métodos: O presente relatório é resultante de um protocolo de colaboração entre a Sociedade Portuguesa de Angiologia e Cirurgia ...

Aneurysm Volumes After Endovascular Repair of Ruptured vs Intact Aortic Aneurys...

Purpose: 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...

Introdução: 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...

Objective: 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

Objective: 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 ...

Objective: 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...

Pathophysiological Mechanisms of Chronic Venous Disease and Implications for Ve...

Chronic venous disease (CVD) is a common pathology, with significant physical and psychological impacts for patients and high economic costs for national healthcare systems. Throughout the last decades, several risk factors for this condition have been identified, but only recently, have the roles of inflammation and endothelial dysfunction been properly assessed. Although still incompletely understood, current...

Endovascular Treatment of Symptomatic Renal Artery Aneurysm with Hostile Anatomy

Endovascular Treatment of Symptomatic Renal Artery Aneurysm with Hostile Anatomy

Percutaneous Endovascular Aortic Repair with Local Anesthesia - One Day Surgery

To evaluate the results of the abdominal aortic aneurism endovascular treatment (EVAR), percutaneously and with local anesthesia, according to the concept of one day surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Unicentric, retrospective analysis of patients with aorto-iliac aneurysmal disease, consecutively treated by EVAR with percutaneous access trough the Preclose technique (pEVAR), according to the outpatient criteria, w...
