Ann Vasc Surg 2024; 106:289-296. [PMID: 38830448 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2024.03.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Considering a patient's anatomy and vascular conditions, aorto-femoral bypass is a treatment approach for the open repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms. This study aimed at evaluating changes in the remnant iliac artery and their correlation with the preservation state of retrograde flow from femoral anastomosis. METHODS Of 221 patients who underwent abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery between 2007 and 2022 in Pusan National University Hospital, 29 patients who underwent aorto-femoral bypass were included in this retrospective cohort study. Of these patients, 21 underwent aortobifemoral bypass and 8 underwent aortoiliac-and-femoral bypass. The change in size of the iliac artery from preoperative to postoperative and whether this difference in size depended on the status of postoperative retrograde flow were investigated. Additionally, factors affecting overall mortality and ischemic complications were identified. RESULTS The median duration from operation to the last follow-up was 2069.5 days (about 5.7 years). The average age of the patients was 78.1 years, and the proportion of males was 75.9%. In cases of disappearance of postoperative retrograde flow from the femoral anastomosis, the postoperative iliac artery size was significantly reduced compared to its preoperative size (18.4 ± 18.9 mm vs. 13.2 ± 7.9 mm, respectively; P = 0.04). The group with maintained retrograde flow had significantly larger residual common iliac artery size than the group with disappearance of flow. (20.0 ± 28.0 mm vs. 14.6 ± 8.5 mm, respectively; P = 0.02). Disappearance of retrograde flow was a significant factor in the iliac artery size reduction after surgery (odds ratio, 2.5; 95% confidence interval, 1.9-5.3; P = 0.02). Three patients with maintained retrograde flow (18.8%) required intervention owing to an increase in the size of the iliac artery. The factors that significantly influenced overall death as analyzed by Cox proportional hazard regression were chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (hazard ratio, 36.8; 95% confidence interval, 1.6-870.0; P = 0.03), peripheral arterial occlusive disease (hazard ratio, 12.7; 95% confidence interval, 1.4-115.8; P = 0.02), and disappearance of retrograde flow (hazard ratio, 8.7; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-63.9; P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Among the open repair methods for abdominal aortic aneurysms, if retrograde flow was not maintained through femoral anastomosis when aorto-femoral bypass was performed, the size of the remaining iliac artery decreased. However, loss of retrograde flow increased long-term mortality. When aorto-femoral bypass is performed, regular imaging follow-up is necessary at appropriate intervals to check the remnant iliac artery and retrograde flow.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The European Society for Vascular Surgery (ESVS) has developed clinical practice guidelines for the care of patients with aneurysms of the abdominal aorta and iliac arteries in succession to the 2011 and 2019 versions, with the aim of assisting physicians and patients in selecting the best management strategy. METHODS The guideline is based on scientific evidence completed with expert opinion on the matter. By summarising and evaluating the best available evidence, recommendations for the evaluation and treatment of patients have been formulated. The recommendations are graded according to a modified European Society of Cardiology grading system, where the strength (class) of each recommendation is graded from I to III and the letters A to C mark the level of evidence. RESULTS A total of 160 recommendations have been issued on the following topics: Service standards, including surgical volume and training; Epidemiology, diagnosis, and screening; Management of patients with small abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), including surveillance, cardiovascular risk reduction, and indication for repair; Elective AAA repair, including operative risk assessment, open and endovascular repair, and early complications; Ruptured and symptomatic AAA, including peri-operative management, such as permissive hypotension and use of aortic occlusion balloon, open and endovascular repair, and early complications, such as abdominal compartment syndrome and colonic ischaemia; Long term outcome and follow up after AAA repair, including graft infection, endoleaks and follow up routines; Management of complex AAA, including open and endovascular repair; Management of iliac artery aneurysm, including indication for repair and open and endovascular repair; and Miscellaneous aortic problems, including mycotic, inflammatory, and saccular aortic aneurysm. In addition, Shared decision making is being addressed, with supporting information for patients, and Unresolved issues are discussed. CONCLUSION The ESVS Clinical Practice Guidelines provide the most comprehensive, up to date, and unbiased advice to clinicians and patients on the management of abdominal aorto-iliac artery aneurysms.

Abstract
The objective of these Guidelines was to revise and update the previous 2016 Italian Guidelines on Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Disease, in accordance with the National Guidelines System (SNLG), to guide every practitioner toward the most correct management pathway for this pathology. The methodology applied in this update was the GRADE-SIGN version methodology, following the instructions of the AGREE quality of reporting checklist as well. The first methodological step was the formulation of clinical questions structured according to the PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) model according to which the Recommendations were issued. Then, systematic reviews of the Literature were carried out for each PICO question or for homogeneous groups of questions, followed by the selection of the articles and the assessment of the methodological quality for each of them using qualitative checklists. Finally, a Considered Judgment form was filled in for each clinical question, in which the features of the evidence as a whole are assessed to establish the transition from the level of evidence to the direction and strength of the recommendations. These guidelines outline the correct management of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm in terms of screening and surveillance. Medical management and indication for surgery are discussed, as well as preoperative assessment regarding patients' background and surgical risk evaluation. Once the indication for surgery has been established, the options for traditional open and endovascular surgery are described and compared, focusing specifically on patients with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms as well. Finally, indications for early and late postoperative follow-up are explained. The most recent evidence in the Literature has been able to confirm and possibly modify the previous recommendations updating them, likewise to propose new recommendations on prospectively relevant topics.

Hypogastric Artery Flow Interruption is Associated with Increased Mortality after Open Aortic Repair. Ann Vasc Surg 2022; 87:270-277. [PMID: 35654287 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2022.05.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2022] [Revised: 05/18/2022] [Accepted: 05/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Potential complications of pelvic flow disruption during aortic aneurysm repair include buttock ischemia and mesenteric ischemia. Unilateral or bilateral hypogastric artery flow interruption, either from atherosclerosis or intentionally to facilitate aneurysm repair, is considered problematic in endovascular repair; however, it has not been well studied in open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair (OAR). We sought to examine the effect of interruption of flow to one or both hypogastric arteries on outcomes after OAR. METHODS The Society for Vascular Surgery Quality Initiative database was queried for all patients undergoing elective open AAA repair between 2003 and 2020. (redundant) Patients with appropriate data on their hypogastric arteries postoperatively were stratified into two groups - patent bilaterally (normal pelvic perfusion, NPP), and unilateral or bilateral occlusion or ligation (compromised pelvic perfusion, CPP). Primary endpoints were 30-day major morbidity (myocardial infarction, respiratory complications, renal injury, and lower extremity or intestinal ischemia) and mortality. RESULTS During the study period, 9.492 patients underwent elective open AAA repair - 860 (9.1%) with compromised pelvic perfusion and 8,632 (90.9%) with patent bilateral hypogastric arteries. The groups had similar cardiac risk factors, including history of coronary artery disease, prior coronary intervention and use of P2Y12 inhibitors and statins. A majority of patients in the CPP cohort had concurrent iliac aneurysms (63.3% versus 24.8%; p<.001). The perioperative mortality was significantly higher in patients with compromised pelvic perfusion (5.5% versus 3.1%; p<.001). Bilateral flow interruption had a trend toward higher perioperative mortality compared to unilateral interruption (7.1% versus 4.7%; p<.147). The CPP group also had increased rates of myocardial injury (6.7% versus 4.7%; p=.012), renal complications (18.9% versus 15.9%; p=.024), leg and bowel ischemia (3.5% versus 2.1%;, p=.008; and 5.7% versus 3.4%; p<.001, respectively). On multivariable analysis, CPP was associated with increased perioperative mortality (OR 1.47, CI 1.14-1.88, p=.003). On Kaplan-Meier analysis, there was no difference in survival at 2 years post discharge, between the NPP and CPP cohorts (86.1% versus 87.5%, logrank-p=0.275). CONCLUSIONS Compromised pelvic perfusion is associated with increased perioperative complications and higher mortality in patients undergoing OAR. The sequalae of losing pelvic perfusion in addition to the presence of more complex atherosclerotic and aneurysmal disease resulting in more difficult dissection likely contribute to these findings. Thus, patients considered for OAR who have occluded hypogastric arteries or aneurysmal involvement of the hypogastric artery preoperatively may be candidates for more conservative management beyond traditional size criteria.

Abstract
Patients undergoing endovascular repair (EVAR) of aortoiliac or iliac artery aneurysm may require sacrifice of one or both internal iliac arteries (IIAs). Until Food and Drug Administration-approved commercial grafts became available, endovascular IIA preservation was accomplished using the "sandwich" technique, but limited information is available regarding the results of this method. After obtaining institutional review board approval, we identified patients undergoing IIA preservation with the sandwich technique during EVAR at our institution. The patients have been followed prospectively since being identified to record patency rates and vascular symptoms or events. Twenty-four procedures were performed from 2011 through 2015 to treat iliac artery aneurysms. Fourteen of these procedures were done with concomitant EVAR using different endografts (Gore Excluder 11, Endologix AFX 2, Cook Zenith 1). Five were done to extend a previous EVAR that had developed a type Ib endoleak, 2 for an isolated external iliac artery aneurysm, 3 for an anastomotic aneurysm from a previous aortobiiliac graft, and 2 for isolated iliac aneurysm repair. There were 25 sandwich grafts (unilateral in 19, bilateral in 6). Contralateral embolization was performed in 5 cases. Immediate success rates were high, and patency rates were excellent at intermediate follow-up. Intraoperative type 3 endoleaks were not uncommon but usually resolved postoperatively. Endovascular IIA preservation is feasible with currently available devices using this technique. This procedure is recommended for preservation of the IIA during endovascular treatment of aortoiliac and iliac artery aneurysms when anatomy requires IIA preservation.
