Aortic dissection (AD) is one of the most challenging vascular diseases, with an in-patient mortality as high as 30 %1 and 30-day and 5-year fatality rates of just over 50 % and 60 %, respectively.2 The time course of AD is broadly spit into acute (<14 days), subacute (15–90 days), and chronic (>90 days) phases, and it is split clinically into complicated (i.e. the condition is associated… View more

As the field of interventional cardiology has grown, so too has interest in mitigating severe adverse outcomes such as stroke. Unfortunately, the risk of stroke is increased by many underlying disease conditions (atrial fibrillation, patent foramen ovale, carotid artery disease and other vascular disease affecting brain perfusion, etc.), making clear differentiation between cardiac intervention… 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

Randomised trials in the infra-renal abdominal aorta have demonstrated endovascular is better than open repair in preventing aneurysm-related death up to four years post-operatively. Patients with thoracic aneurysms potentially have even more to gain from the endovascular technique. Mortality rates from open thoracic aneurysm repair are three times higher than the infra-renal aorta. Furthermore,… View more
