Ascending aortic intramural hematoma: current concepts
(2022)Purpose of review Type A intramural hematoma (TAIMH) is an acute aortic disease characterized by the presence of hematoma in the aortic media and involving the ascending aorta. Open repair seems to be the first treatment ... -
Balloon Angioplasty Versus Stenting for the Treatment of Failing Arteriovenous Grafts: A Meta-Analysis
(2018)Purpose: To assess the outcomes of plain balloon angioplasty versus stenting for the treatment of failed or malfunctioning chronic haemodialysis arteriovenous grafts (AVGs). Methods: A systematic search of the literature ... -
Comparison of physiological and post-endovascular aneurysm repair infrarenal blood flow
(2017)Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysms results in redirection of blood through the deployed endograft (EG). Even though EVAR is clinically effective, the absolute flow restoration is not warranted. ... -
Complexity of persistent type II endoleak associated with sac expansion after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair
(2015)Type II endoleak after endovascular aortic aneurysm repair still remains the Achilles’ heel of the treatment, the source of which regularly is difficult to identify and treat. We present a patient with a persistent type ... -
Coupled FEA Model with Continuum Damage Mechanics for the Degradation of Polymer-based coatings on Drug-Eluting Stents
(2021)Drug-Eluting Stents (DES) are commonly used in Coronary angioplasty procedures to reduce the phenomenon of restenosis. Numerical simulations are proven to be a useful tool to the Bioengineering community in computing the ... -
Current status of endovascular treatment of aortoenteric fistula
(2017)Aortoenteric fistula (AEF) is one of the most challenging diagnostic and therapeutic entities in vascular surgery. AEF can occur either primarily involving the aorta and the gastrointestinal tract or, more commonly, secondary ... -
Double fixation for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair using AFX body and Endurant proximal aortic cuff: Mid-term results
(2017)Our goal was to evaluate the use of an AFX main body combined with an Endurant proximal aortic cuff to treat selected patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) associated with anatomical challenges, such as a small ... -
Early outcomes of the t-Branch off-the-shelf multi-branched stent graft in 542 patients for elective and urgent aortic pathologies: A retrospective observational study
(2021)Objective: The t-Branch, a standardized off-the-shelf multi-branched stent graft has been used for the treatment of elective and urgent cases in aortic disease. The aim of this study was to assess the early outcomes in ... -
EAU Guidelines on the Treatment and Follow-up of Non-neurogenic Male Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Including Benign Prostatic Obstruction
(2013)Objective: To present a summary of the 2013 version of the European Association of Urology guidelines on the treatment and follow-up of male lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Evidence acquisition: We conducted a literature ... -
Endograft Specific Haemodynamics After Endovascular Aneurysm Repair: Flow Characteristics of Four Stent Graft Systems
(2019)Objectives: The implication of haemodynamics in the occurrence of complications after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has been raised in the literature. Different aortic stent graft configurations may lead to different ... -
Endovascular aneurysm repair in patients with a wide proximal aortic neck: A systematic review and meta-analysis of comparative studies
(2019)INTRODUCTION: The aim was to investigate the impact of wide proximal aortic diameter on outcome after standard endovascular repair (sEVAR) of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: A systematic search ... -
Endovascular treatment of complex abdominal and thoracoabdominal type IV aortic aneurysms with fenestrated technology
(2017)The establishment use of fenestrated and branched devices to treat complex aortic aneurysms as a first-line management option has been previously reported. This article reviews the current literature of the use of fenestrated ... -

Endovascular treatment of traumatic internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm
(2016)Introduction Traumatic internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm (TICAP) is the most common cause of stroke in young adults. The treatment of TICAP with open surgery poses excess risk, thus during last decade endovascular ... -
FEA of Drug-Eluting Stents and Sensitivity Analysis of a Continuum Damage Model for the Degradation of PLGA Coating
(2021)Drug-Eluting Stents (DES) are commonly used in coronary angioplasty operations as a solution against artery stenosis and restenosis. Computational Bioengineering allows for the in-silico analysis of their performance. The ... -
Fenestrated stent grafts for the treatment of complex aortic aneurysm disease: A mature treatment paradigm
(2016)The introduction of fenestrated stent grafts (SGs) to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) with short proximal necks began in 1999. Nowadays, the whole visceral aorta can be treated totally by endovascular means. The ... -
Habib EndoHPB: A Novel Endobiliary Radiofrequency Ablation Device. An Experimental Study
(2013)Background: The Habib EndoHPB is a bipolar radiofrequency (RF) catheter developed to be introduced across malignant strictures of the bile ducts, so that RF energy can locally ablate the tumor prior to stent placement. ... -
Haemodynamic performance of AFX and Nellix endografts: A computational fluid dynamics study
(2018)OBJECTIVES The objective of this study is to analyse the flow conditions in the AFX and Nellix endografts (EGs) accounting for their postimplantation configuration in patients with an endovascular aneurysm repair-treated ... -
Histopathological evaluation of a retinoic acid eluting stent in a rabbit iliac artery model
(2022)This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of innovative retinoic acid (RA) eluting stents with bioabsorbable polymer. Sixty stents divided in ten groups were implanted in the iliac arteries of 30 rabbits. Two ... -
