Two S/P transducers were placed at the proximal sac adjacent to the proximal neck, 2 at the site of the widest sac diameter, and 2 at the sac adjacent to the distal neck. The aneurysm, which was connected to a pulsatile pump system, was excluded using a 10-mm endograft. Type I and type II endoleaks were created and tested individually. S/P measurements were obtained at systemic systolic pressures (BP) of 80, 110, and 150 mmHg. Thrombosis of the sac contents was induced by injection of thrombin and calcium in the sac. Angiography was used to verify presence or absence of flow in the sac.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000Aneurysm exclusion resulted in significant S/P reductions at all 3 BP levels versus prior to exclusion (p<0.05). Thrombus in the sac did not alter S/P in the excluded sac (p>0.05 for all 3 BP levels). In the presence of a proximal type I endoleak, S/P distribution was not uniform, and S/P at the proximal neck was close to S/P prior to exclusion (p>0.05 no graft versus type I endoleak for all 3 BP levels). This was also true in the presence of thrombus. With a type II endoleak, S/P was more evenly distributed and was not significantly elevated compared to the pressure without an endoleak (p>0.05, graft versus type II endoleak for all 3 BP levels). Thrombus had no effect on intrasac S/P with a type II endoleak. Intrasac S/P was significantly higher in the presence of a type I endoleak compared to a type II endoleak when BP=150 mmHg (p=0.008).\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSIONS\u0000Endovascular exclusion of an aneurysm results in uniform S/P reduction in the aneurysm sac. Type I endoleak, but not type II endoleak, results in significantly higher S/P in an area of the sac adjacent to the proximal neck. Thrombus does not result in significantly different S/P distribution in the aneurysm sac.","PeriodicalId":60152,"journal":{"name":"血管与腔内血管外科杂志","volume":"128 1","pages":"516-23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75677223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A retrospective analysis was also conducted of 23 rAAA patients treated with open repair from January 2001 through June 2002. Procedural and clinical data from this sample were compared to 14 contemporaneous emergent EVAR cases and analyzed to determine why the open repair patients were not treated with an endovascular approach.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000Among the 21 patients treated with emergent EVAR since the beginning of this protocol, 6 (29%) procedures were performed under local anesthesia and 6 were performed percutaneously. Thirty-day mortality was 19%. In the comparison of 14 emergent EVAR cases to 23 open rAAA repairs, the mean duration of symptoms prior to intervention was 12 hours for the EVAR patients and <1 hour for OR patients. No significant difference was found in operating time, but the EVAR group had significantly less blood loss (p=0.0001) and transfusion needs (p=0.02); duration of intensive care unit stay was significantly shorter in the EVAR group (p=0.02). Thirty-day mortality was 29% (4/14) for EVAR and 35% for OR (8/23) (p>0.05).
