This study aimed to explore the impact of preoperative disseminated cancer on 30-day outcomes of non-ruptured EVAR.MethodsPatients who underwent infrarenal EVAR were identified in ACS-NSQIP targeted database from 2012 to 2022. Exclusion criteria included age <18 years, ruptured aneurysm, acute intraoperative conversion to open repair, and emergency cases. A 1:3 propensity-score matching was used to match demographics, baseline characteristics, aneurysm diameter, distant aneurysm extent, anesthesia, and concomitant procedures between patients with and without preoperative disseminated cancer. Thirty-day postoperative EVAR outcomes were examined.ResultsThere were 154 (0.80%) patients with disseminated cancer who underwent non-ruptured EVAR. Meanwhile, 19,109 patients without disseminated cancer went under EVAR, where 462 of them were matched to all patients with disseminated cancer. After propensity-score matching, patients with and without disseminated cancer had comparable mortality rates (5.19% vs 4.76%, <i>p</i> = 0.83).

There is scarce literature reporting on the preferences and requirements for wound care within continuous care services for such conditions. Discrete choice experiments serve as an innovative method to elicit patient preferences, where the development of attributes and levels is a critically important process.ObjectiveTo identify attributes and levels patients with venous leg ulcers consider when making decisions about continued care services for venous leg ulcers.MethodsIn this study, we employed four steps to devise service features (i.e., attributes) and their potential manifestations (i.e., levels). Firstly, we conducted a systematic literature search with articles screened and content compiled by two researchers to identify possible service attributes. Secondly, we conducted in-depth interviews with patients suffering from venous leg ulcers to gather personal experiences and expectations for quality care, and used Nvivo11.0 for data management. Thirdly, focus group discussions were held to assess general viewpoints from various perspectives. Finally, expert meetings were organized to refine our research tools further. To narrow down the attributes to a manageable number for the discrete choice experiment, focus groups and expert meetings performed ranking exercises, calculating the average importance scores by dividing the total score by the number of participants and ranking attributes from highest to lowest average scores.ResultsThrough literature reviews, qualitative data acquisition, expert meetings, and ranking exercises, a total of six attributes were finalized, each with two to three levels. The attributes included: 1) service cost (Ave score: 4.7); 2) Mode of service delivery (Ave score: 4.5); 3) Service type (Ave score: 4.4); 4) Consistency of caregiver (Ave score: 4.4); 5) Category of service providers (Ave score: 4.3); and 6) Appointment scheduling (Ave score: 4.3). These attributes encompassed key aspects related to wound care in the continuous care services for patients with venous leg ulcers.ConclusionsThe mixed-methods approach adopted in this study has proven particularly suitable for identifying, refining, and selecting attributes and levels for discrete choice experiments. By leveraging the advantages and limitations of the four steps, and especially through qualitative data analysis, a more profound and comprehensive understanding of the attributes and levels was achieved. This approach has facilitated the practicality and accuracy in attribute construction, enhancing the overall efficacy of the DCE design.</p>","PeriodicalId":23549,"journal":{"name":"Vascular","volume":" ","pages":"84-91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142839453","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}

We report a hemiarch replacement with TEVAR stent graft covering the aortic arch vessels salvaged through an endovascular approach.MethodsA 69-year-old man with ATAAD in 2018, status post-hemiarch repair with TEVAR, presented in 2023 with progressive dizziness/syncope and lower extremity hypertension with inability to tolerate anti-hypertensives. A CT scan revealed TEVAR stent graft coverage of the brachiocephalic, left common carotid (LCA), and left subclavian artery (LSA), with retrograde flow into the arch vessels through a false lumen fed by a dissection fenestration at the aortic bifurcation. Given an elevated peri-operative death and stroke risk with an open arch revision, we performed an in situ anterograde laser fenestration of his FET with LCA and LSA stenting via the Culotte technique.ResultsOn 1 year follow-up, the patient's dizziness has resolved, and he has maintained normotension via anti-hypertensives.ConclusionLaser fenestration and the Culotte technique can be used to salvage a TEVAR causing coverage of the arch vessels, showing that endovascular techniques can be a safe alternative for rescuing mal-positioned FETs.</p>","PeriodicalId":23549,"journal":{"name":"Vascular","volume":" ","pages":"40-44"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142955661","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}
