Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) are increasingly being used as therapeutic options for patients with severe aortic stenosis ineligible for surgery and with aortic aneurysm with suitable anatomical features. Despite encouraging results from randomised studies and registries regarding the pursuit of endovascular treatment in selected patients,… View more

Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) was introduced by Volodos in the Ukraine. He attributed much of the concept to Charles Dotter of solid angioplasty fame. The Volodos publication received little attention in the Western world at the time towards the end of the Soviet Union era.1 It was at the 1990 Charing Cross Symposium in London that many in vascular disease management first heard… View more

Abdominal aortic aneurysms remain a challenging diagnosis for patients. Over the last 18 years, the minimally invasive endovascular approach has developed into a viable alternative to traditional open surgery for the treatment of these abnormal aortic dilatations. Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is the preferred method of repairing abdominal aneurysms in older and high-risk patients. EVAR has… View more

It has been almost two decades since Juan Carlos Parodi deployed the first endovascular stent-graft in an abdominal aortic aneurysm, a procedure that ushered in a new era in the treatment of an often fatal vascular disease. Since then, significant evolution in devices and techniques has resulted in a dramatic expansion in the performance of endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) and… View more

Since its inception in the early 1990s, endovascular repair (EVR) of aneurysms has been subjected to analysis in several randomised controlled trials. Now it is a mainstay of treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). As the technique has moved from conception through competitive analysis and finally into mainstream practice, several issues have remained controversial. These will be… View more

Since the first reported endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) by Parodi in 1991,1 the approach to the treatment of aneurysmal pathology has changed. The old concept of substitution of the aneurysmal aorta has been replaced by the new and challenging concept of exclusion, in order to pursue the same aim of preventing or treating aneurysm rupture. EVAR is a minimally invasive… View more

Minimally invasive procedures such as endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and implantation of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) are gaining ground on traditional surgery.1–3 These procedures require large-bore access, which is inherently associated with vascular complications and bleeding. Despite the reduction in size of these devices (Table 1),… View more

With an ageing population, the burden of peripheral artery diseases (PADs) is increasing. The treatment of these diseases has largely been performed by interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons and interventional cardiologists. In 2011, the percentage of procedures performed per specialty were 12.9 %, 45.0 % and 42.2 % for interventional radiology, vascular surgery and interventional… View more
