We aim to compare the unibody AFX2 (Endologix, Irvine, CA, USA) vs the bifurcated ALTO (Endologix) system in EVAR patients with a narrow bifurcation. Methods: Retrospective single-center study, including patients undergoing standard EVAR over 3 years. Patients with a bifurcation diameter <20 mm were identified, and outcomes were compared between the AFX2 and ALTO groups. Primary endpoints were primary and overall technical success, primary and overall clinical success, rate of adverse limb events, rate of limb occlusion, and need for secondary interventions. The analysis was repeated using a diameter threshold of <18 mm. Results: Among 151 cases, 26 presented with bifurcations <20 mm and 12 with <18 mm. In the primary analysis, 15 patients were treated with the AFX2 and 11 with the ALTO endograft. Both groups achieved 100% technical and clinical success. No limb occlusions occurred, and no reinterventions were recorded. Preoperative anatomy was suitable for ALTO in all cases, while eligibility for AFX2 was 15 out of 26 cases. Secondary analysis displayed similar results. Conclusions: In patients with narrow aortic bifurcation, the AFX2 endograft can be safely used when appropriate anatomic conditions are met. If the AFX2 system is unsuitable due to other anatomic restrictions, the ALTO endograft is a viable alternative.","PeriodicalId":7995,"journal":{"name":"Annals of vascular diseases","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12170096/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144309442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Data from 49 patients with AAA from June 2020 to November 2022 at Tokyo Medical University Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Brachial-ankle PWV (cm/s) was obtained via an automated oscillometric method. Regional arterial stiffness and distensibility parameters, such as stiffness parameter (β), pressure-strain elasticity modulus (Ep, kPa), one-point PWV (PWV β, m/s), and arterial compliance (AC, mm2/kPa-1), were assessed using 2-dimensional automated tissue tracking (2DTT) ultrasonography. Patients were divided into two groups: high PWV (≥1800) and low PWV (<1800). Results: Patients with high PWV showed significantly higher β and PWV β (30.6 ± 10.1 vs. 25.2 ± 6.3, p = 0.047; 11.6 ± 2.3 vs. 10.5 ± 1.5, p = 0.048) and significantly lower AC in the aneurysmal sac (10.6 ± 5.3 vs. 14.7 ± 8.1, p = 0.045) than those with low PWV. AC was negatively correlated with PWV (r = -0.361, p = 0.011). Conclusions: Brachial-ankle PWV can reflect arterial stiffness and distensibility, as measured by 2DTT ultrasonography, in the aneurysmal sac of AAA, suggesting its potential as an elasticity index for assessing regional arterial stiffness and distensibility in AAA.","PeriodicalId":7995,"journal":{"name":"Annals of vascular diseases","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11771152/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143057711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Universal management strategies are not always applicable, owing to population diversity, and the Western trials may not be applicable to Japanese patients, owing to differences in demographics and clinical profiles. This paper examines the outcomes of revascularization in Japanese CLTI patients and emphasizes the benefits of tailored management. Post-hoc analysis of the bypass versus angioplasty in severe ischemia of the leg (BASIL)-1 trial validated the use of the Global Limb Anatomic Staging System for predicting the outcomes of endovascular therapy (EVT) but not bypass surgery (BS). The SPINACH (surgical reconstruction versus peripheral intervention in patients with critical limb ischemia) registry revealed comparable 3-year amputation-free survival rates between patients who underwent EVT and those who underwent BS, with patient-specific factors such as limb status and general health influencing its success. Revascularization improved the quality of life, but benefits declined over time, especially in non-ambulatory and older patients on dialysis. Surgical reconstruction is better for preserving ambulation. Retrospective studies revealed pedal branch artery bypass as a viable option, functional independence as a predictor of survival, and zinc supplementation as promising for wound healing. Future research should focus on refining these strategies and exploring innovative approaches to overcome persistent challenges in CLTI care.","PeriodicalId":7995,"journal":{"name":"Annals of vascular diseases","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11771150/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143057712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We previously reported that Bifidobacterium adolescentis levels were reduced in the feces of patients with AAA by 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (RNA) gene sequencing. In this study, we increased the number of cases and conducted metagenomic analyses to examine bacterial genes associated with the pathophysiology of AAA. Methods: For gut microbiota data, feces from 55 patients with AAA and 52 patients with no history of AAA, lower extremity artery disease, or coronary artery disease (control group) were collected. Metagenomic analysis was performed by collecting raw stool samples from patients. For intestinal microbiota analysis, metagenomic analysis of the fecal samples was performed. Results: Oral bacteria, including Actinomyces oris (p <0.0001), Streptococcus salivarius (p <0.001), Lactobacillus salivarius (p <0.001), and Streptococcus sp. (p <0.001), were increased in the feces of patients with AAA. In addition, bacterial genes related to alpha lipoic acid (ALA) biosynthesis (M00882, M00883, and M00884, p <0.0001) were decreased in patients with AAA. Conclusions: In the feces of patients with AAA, there was an increase in oral bacteria, and the expression of bacterial genes related to ALA biosynthesis was reduced. The results suggest the possibility of developing gut microbial drug treatments for AAA.","PeriodicalId":7995,"journal":{"name":"Annals of vascular diseases","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11771153/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143057715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The boat-form vein cuff was designed to allow adjustment of the size and angle of the anastomosis at any anatomic site. We report our experience and outcomes of the original vein cuff technique in various peripheral artery bypass grafting procedures. Methods: A total of 10 patients underwent arterial bypass grafting using a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) graft with a boat-form venous cuff. The indications for the surgery consisted of peripheral artery disease (n = 4), acute limb ischemia (n = 4), chronic mesenteric ischemia (n = 1), and traumatic upper limb ischemia (n = 1). Five patients required emergency surgery. Surgical outcomes, such as mortality and morbidity, limb salvage rate, and graft patency, were examined using perioperative and postoperative follow-up data. Results: There were no operative deaths or serious complications, including amputation of the lower extremity. During the follow-up period (44 ± 36.9 months), the PTFE graft remained patent in 9 patients (90%). In 1 patient, occlusion of the femoropopliteal bypass graft was observed 3 months after surgery. Conclusions: The simple design and creation of the boat-form vein cuff are useful at any anatomical site in peripheral artery bypass grafting with a PTFE graft.","PeriodicalId":7995,"journal":{"name":"Annals of vascular diseases","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12129623/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144207471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indications include primary varicose veins requiring concurrent treatment of the saphenous trunk and varicose tributaries. The procedure utilizes slim radial fibers, with puncture and ablation performed using either short- or long-axis approaches. Although rare, adverse events such as skin burns, nerve injury, and fiber breakage have been reported. A learning curve is necessary to ensure the safe execution of the procedure.
