Abstract

To study the performance of the chimney technique in the treatment of aortic arch pathologic conditions. We retrospectively evaluated the clinical and procedural outcome data of patients undergoing endovascular treatment in the aortic arch by use of the chimney technique at four European centers between June 2002 and December 2014. The primary endpoint was technical success. The secondary endpoints were type I endoleak, 30-day mortality, stroke, primary patency of the chimney graft, and freedom from reintervention. Ninety-five patients were included in the study. The underlying pathologic conditions were degenerative aneurysm (n = 45, 47.4%), type B aortic dissection (n = 30, 31.6%), dissecting aneurysm (n = 6, 6.5%), penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer (n = 5, 5.3%), type I endoleak after previous thoracic endovascular aortic repair (n = 6, 6.3%), and aortic embolic disease (n = 3, 3.2%). Twenty-one patients (22%) underwent arch-branch debranching before chimney graft implantation. The majority of patients were treated electively (n = 49, 51.6%). Forty-six patients (48.4%) underwent urgent placement of chimney grafts because of their symptoms (n = 25) or rupture (n = 21). Technical success was 89.5%. The 30-day mortality was 9.5...Continue Reading

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.

Aneurysm

Aneurysms are outward distensions or bulges that occurs in a weakened wall of blood vessels. Discover the latest research on aneurysms here.
