The aim of this study was to summarize the current literature regarding the bell-bottom technique (BBT) for ectatic CIAs during EVAR.MethodsThis study was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Eligible articles were identified through a comprehensive search of PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Central published until April 2023. A meta-analysis was conducted using the random effects model and the I<jats:sup>2</jats:sup> statistic was used to assess for heterogeneity. The primary endpoints were type Ib/III endoleak, graft occlusion/limb embolization, and reintervention rate. Secondary endpoints included perioperative adverse events and mortality.ResultsOverall, twenty-six studies and 4332 patients with flared limbs were included. The pooled estimate for type Ib/III endoleak was 4% (95% CI: 2-6, I<jats:sup>2</jats:sup> = 85.6%), for reintervention rate was 9% (95% CI: 6-12, I<jats:sup>2</jats:sup> = 90.4%), and for overall mortality was 10% (95% CI: 4-19, I<jats:sup>2</jats:sup> = 97.3%). No aneurysm related deaths were recorded. Comparative analysis showed similar type Ib/III endoleak, graft occlusion, and reintervention rates between the EVAR BBT, iliac branch endoprosthesis (IBE), and embolization of the internal iliac artery followed by extension of the iliac limb to the external iliac artery (EIE) groups.ConclusionsThe use of flared limbs could be considered a reasonable first line choice for EVAR cases with CIA ectasia as it is simpler, allows for future IBE or EIE and does not increase the risk for type Ib/III endoleak or graft occlusion. Further comparative studies with longer follow-up are needed.","PeriodicalId":23530,"journal":{"name":"Vascular and Endovascular Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142214325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The goal of this study was to look at the maturity of diabetic hemodialysis patients’ distal forearm (radiocephalic snuffbox or distal forearm) arteriovenous fistulas.Materials and MethodsPatients with chronic renal failure who were candidates for distal forearm radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula implantation were evaluated in this cross-sectional study. Patients’ demographic details, underlying disorders, laboratory measurements, vital signs, and information on their surgery were all noted. Patients were checked for fistula development 1 week, 1 month, 2 months, and then monthly until 6 months after surgery.

A parametric analysis of three models was performed: (A) Aortic arch with no stent, (B) 3 mm bird-beak configuration, and (C) 6.5 mm bird-beak configuration. Flow velocity, pressure, vorticity, wall shear stress (WSS), and time average WSS were assessed.ResultsThe flow velocity in Model A remained relatively constant and low in the area of the ostium of the brachiocephalic artery and doubled in the left subclavian artery. On the contrary, Models B and C showed a decrease in velocity of 52.3 % in the left subclavian artery. Furthermore, Model B showed a drop in velocity of 82.7% below the bird-beak area, whereas Model C showed a decline of 80.9% in this area. The pressure inside the supra-aortic branches was higher in Model B and C compared with Model A. In Model A, vorticity only appeared at the level of the descending aorta, with low to non-vorticity in the aortic arch. In contrast, Models B and C had an average vorticity of 241.4 Hz within the bird beak area. Regarding WSS, Model A, and Model B shared similar WSS in the peak systolic phase, in the aortic arch, and the bird beak area, whereas Model C had an increased WSS by 5 Pa on average at these zones.ConclusionIn the present simulations’ lower velocities, higher pressures, vortices, and WSS were observed around the bird beak zone, the aortic arch, and the supra-aortic vessels.","PeriodicalId":23530,"journal":{"name":"Vascular and Endovascular Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140570837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
