Abstract
BACKGROUND Subclavian artery stenosis and occlusion are common arterial diseases in the upper extremities, with atherosclerosis being the main cause. Endovascular treatment has emerged as a promising alternative to open surgical repair, but data are limited. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of endovascular procedures in the treatment of subclavian artery lesions at a tertiary vascular center in Vietnam. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent endovascular treatment for symptomatic subclavian artery stenosis or occlusion between October 2013 and April 2022. Clinical characteristics, procedural details, short- and long-term outcomes, and patency rates were assessed. RESULTS Twenty-five patients were included in the study, with a mean age of 56.8 years. The majority of patients had risk factors for atherosclerosis, and all presented with symptoms related to subclavian artery disease. The endovascular procedures were successful in 96% of cases, with a low complication rate of 8%. During a median follow-up of 43 months, the overall patency rate was 92% at three years. CONCLUSION Endovascular treatment of subclavian artery stenosis and occlusion is a safe and effective option, with excellent long-term patency rates. These findings support the use of percutaneous revascularization as the first-line therapy, particularly in experienced centers. Further studies with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up periods are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
The occlusion of the innominate artery caused a significant decrease in the distal end of the right subclavian artery and the right common carotid artery, internal carotid artery, and external carotid artery (ECA). Due to the different pressure and the abundant communicating arteries between the ECA and the bilateral vertebral artery (VA), different paths of blood steal in the anterior and posterior circulation occurred.

[PMID: 31863950 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2019.11.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2019] [Revised: 11/24/2019] [Accepted: 11/25/2019] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to report early and late outcomes of surgical and endovascular management of subclavian artery atherosclerotic disease (SAAD). METHODS Data about consecutive patients treated for subclavian artery atherosclerotic occlusive disease between 2001 and 2018 either by open surgical repair (OSR) or by endovascular repair (ER) were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Primary outcomes included 30-day death, as well as cardiac and neurologic events, reported separately for occlusion and stenosis. Secondary outcomes included primary patency in the long term, reported separately for occlusive and stenotic lesions. The Kaplan-Meier analysis with the logrank test was used to estimate long-term primary patency. Chi-squared and t-tests were used as appropriate to compare the outcomes of the 2 groups. A P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Sixty-eight patients were treated using ER (49 patients) and OSR (19). Technical success rate was 100% in both groups. During in-hospital stay, 1 brachial hematoma and 2 acute upper limb ischemia occurred in the ER group and in the OSR group, respectively. At 30 days, no deaths or neurological/cardiac events were recorded in both ER and OSR groups. Symptoms resolution and upper limb salvage were 100% in both groups. In the ER group, primary patency was 100% at 7 years in patients who had been treated for stenotic lesions and 62.5 ± 21.3% in patients who had been treated for occlusive lesions (P = 0.0035). In the OSR group, primary patency was 100% at 7 years in patients treated for stenotic lesions and 25 ± 21.6% in patients who had been treated for occlusive lesions (P < 0.0001). Overall, long-term primary patency in the OSR group was 76.9 ± 11.7% at 7 years, being lower than that reported after ER (93.4 ± 4.5%, P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Both ER and OSR proved to be safe, effective, and durable in the treatment of SAAD. In particular, the primary patency rates at long term for both ER and OSR showed better outcomes for stenotic lesions.

Use of a Dual-Filter Embolic Protection Device for Brachiocephalic Artery Stenting. Ann Vasc Surg 2019; 65:282.e13-282.e15.

Abstract
A 77-year-old female with peripheral artery disease underwent brachiocephalic artery stenting for right upper extremity claudication. Given a very high atherosclerotic burden seen on CT, a dual-filter embolic protection device (Sentinel, Boston Scientific) was deployed from the right radial artery to protect the right common carotid and subclavian arteries, and therefore the vertebral artery, during the stenting procedure. This case report demonstrates a novel use of this dual-filter device to provide both carotid and vertebral artery embolic protection during brachiocephalic artery intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endovascular treatment offers an alternative, less invasive approach to open repair for subclavian artery atherosclerotic disease (SAAD). However, only few studies compared the outcomes of both strategies in the long run. This study reports on the performance of endovascular and surgical revascularization for SAAD. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted on patients treated for SAAD at two institutions between January 1998 and December 2015. Primary outcome of this study was the composite endpoint of reintervention-free survival (RFS) defined as time to reintervention and/or death from any cause. Secondary endpoints included primary patency (PPR) and secondary patency (SPR) rates as well as overall survival and time to reintervention. RESULTS Surgical treatment was the preferred treatment option in 27 (25%) patients, while 83 (75%) patients underwent primary stent therapy. The median follow-up was 87 months (interquartile range [IQR]: 38 to 151) in the surgical group and 27 (IQR: 12 to 59) in the endovascular (P=0.0001). Severe arterial wall calcification was more commonly observed in the surgical arm (P<0.0001), while mild and moderate calcification in the endovascular (P=0.0004 and P=0.014). Vessel occlusion was more frequent among patients treated surgically (100% vs. 34%, P<0.0001). At 98 months RFS was significantly higher after surgical treatment (95% vs. 54%, HR: 8.4, 95% CI: 3.9 to 18.1, P=0.0002). Although overall survival did not differ significantly between the two groups (HR: 4.28, 95% CI: 0.86 to 21.22, P=0.093), open repair was associated with reduced reintervention rate (HR: 12.04, 95% CI: 4.98 to 29.12, P=0.001). The PPR at 98 months following surgical and endovascular therapy amounted to 96% and 65% (HR: 12.87, 95% CI: 5.44 to 30.44, P=0.0008) respectively. No significant difference was observed regarding the SPR between the two groups (100% vs. 95%, P=0.090). CONCLUSIONS Surgical treatment was associated in this cohort with increased patency and a significant reduction of reinterventions compared to the endovascular approach.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive lesions of the subclavian artery (SCA) often result in subclavian steal syndrome, which leads to arm claudication, transient cerebral ischemia, and other serious complications. The lesions are classified as stenosis and occlusion, according to the degree of obstruction. Unlike totally occlusive lesions, including ostial occlusions, stenotic lesions have an excellent technical success rate. In the present study, ostial occlusions were classified into 4 types according to their angiographic appearance. A total of 8 patients (6 male, 2 female) with SCA occlusions were treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting over a 4-year period. Mean patient age was 65.6 years (range, 60-72 years). In total, 9 self-expanding and 1 balloon-expandable stent were implanted at the ostia of the SCA in 7 of the patients. One female patient did not undergo stenting. Bleeding at the access site was noted in 2 patients and was controlled by gauze pressure. The patient that did not undergo stenting was lost to follow-up with symptoms of a transient ischemic attack at 3 months. The mean follow-up time for the remaining 7 patients was 15.7 months (range, 1-36 months). No ischemic symptoms, neointimal hyperplasia, or restenosis was observed in these patients. The transfemoral artery operation approach is preferred for rat-tail and peak type occlusions, whereas the dual approach involving both femoral and radial arteries is preferred for hilly and plain type occlusions. The angiographic morphology typing used in the present study may serve as a reference to decide upon the interventional operation strategy to be used for improving the technical success rate.
