Impact of endograft material on the inflammatory response after elective endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of endograft material on the inflammatory response after elective endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Consecutive patients (n = 22, all men, 53 to 82 years old) were divided into 2 groups according to the graft material used: In group A (n = 12) the endovascular device was made of polyester and in group B (n = 10) the device was made...

متن کاملMicroembolization from an abdominal aortic aneurysm after thoracic aortic replacement.
A 66-year-old man with thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysm suffered from microembolism in the lower extremities after total arch replacement. He presented with livedo reticularis with palpable peripheral pulses, and the serum creatinine kinase level elevated up to 7,695.

متن کاملRuptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm after Endovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repair

However, the aneurysm can enlarge or rupture even after EVAR as a result of device failure, endoleak, or graft migration. We experienced two cases of aneurismal rupture after EVAR, which were succes...
