J Clin Med 2024; 13:3551. [PMID: 38930080 PMCID: PMC11204582 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13123551] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2024] [Revised: 06/04/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Diabetes has a protective effect on abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs); however, there are contrasting reports on the impact of diabetes on endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) outcomes, endoleaks (ELs) being the major negative outcome. The present study characterizes ELs and their outcomes in AAA patients, diabetic or not. Methods: This single-center, retrospective, comparative study was carried out on 324 AAA patients who underwent elective EVARs between 2007 and 2016 at the University Hospital of Liège (Belgium). The primary endpoint was the incidence and effect of ELs on the evolution of the aneurysmal sac; the secondary endpoints were surgical reintervention and mortality rate. Diabetic and non-diabetic patients were compared with respect to various risk factors by logistic regression, while a Cox regression was used to analyze survival. Results: In AAA patients meeting the inclusion criteria (n = 248), 23% were diabetic. EL incidence was comparable (p = 0.74) in diabetic (38.7%) vs. non-diabetic (43.9%) patients. EL risk factors were age (HR = 1.04, p = 0.014) and fibrate intake (HR = 3.12, p = 0.043). A significant association was observed between ELs and aneurysm sac enlargement (p < 0.001), regardless of group (p = 0.46). Aneurysm sac regression per month for non-diabetic patients was -0.24 ± 0.013, while for diabetics it was -0.18 ± 0.027 (p = 0.059). Dyslipidemia (HR = 3.01, p = 0.0060) and sulfonylureas (HR = 8.43, p = 0.043) were associated with shorter EL duration, while diabetes (HR = 0.080, p = 0.038) and beta blockers (HR = 0.46, p = 0.036) were associated with longer EL duration. The likelihood of reoperation decreased with more recent surgery (OR = 0.90, p = 0.040), regardless of diabetic status. All-cause mortality was higher for the non-diabetic group (45.5% vs. 26.3%, p = 0.0096). Conclusions: Endoleak occurrence is a known risk factor for sac expansion. In diabetic patients, endoleaks lasted longer, and regression of the aneurysm sac tended to be slower. The number and type of reintervention was not related to the diabetic status of AAA patients, but overall survival was higher in patients with diabetes.

A dedicated risk prediction model of 1-year mortality following endovascular aortic aneurysm repair involving the renal-mesenteric arteries. J Vasc Surg 2024; 79:721-731.e6. [PMID: 38070785 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvs.2023.12.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Treatment goals of prophylactic endovascular aortic repair of complex aneurysms involving the renal-mesenteric arteries (complex endovascular aortic repair [cEVAR]) include achieving both technical success and long-term survival benefit. Mortality within the first year after cEVAR likely indicates treatment failure owing to associated costs and procedural complexity. Notably, no validated clinical decision aid tools exist that reliably predict mortality after cEVAR. The purpose of this study was to derive and validate a preoperative prediction model of 1-year mortality after elective cEVAR. METHODS All elective cEVARs including fenestrated, branched, and/or chimney procedures for aortic disease extent confined proximally to Ishimaru landing zones 6 to 9 in the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative were identified (January 2012 to August 2023). Patients (n = 4053) were randomly divided into training (n = 3039) and validation (n = 1014) datasets. A logistic regression model for 1-year mortality was created and internally validated by bootstrapping the AUC and calibration intercept and slope, and by using the model to predict 1-year mortality in the validation dataset. Independent predictors were assigned an integer score, based on model beta-coefficients, to generate a simplified scoring system to categorize patient risk. RESULTS The overall crude 1-year mortality rate after elective cEVAR was 11.3% (n = 456/4053). Independent preoperative predictors of 1-year mortality included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic renal insufficiency (creatinine >1.8 mg/dL or dialysis dependence), hemoglobin <12 g/dL, decreasing body mass index, congestive heart failure, increasing age, American Society of Anesthesiologists class ≥IV, current tobacco use, history of peripheral vascular intervention, and increasing extent of aortic disease. The 1-year mortality rate varied from 4% among the 23% of patients classified as low risk to 23% for the 24% classified as high risk. Performance of the model in validation was comparable with performance in the training data. The internally validated scoring system classified patients roughly into quartiles of risk (low, low/medium, medium/high and high), with 52% of patients categorized as medium/high to high risk, which had corresponding 1-year mortality rates of 11% and 23%, respectively. Aneurysm diameter was below Society for Vascular Surgery recommended treatment thresholds (<5.0 cm in females, <5.5 cm in males) in 17% of patients (n = 679/3961), 41% of whom were categorized as medium/high or high risk. This subgroup had significantly increased in-hospital complication rates (18% vs 12%; P = .02) and 1-year mortality (13% vs 5%; P < .0001) compared with patients in the low- or low/medium-risk groups with guideline-compliant aneurysm diameters (≥5.0 cm in females, ≥5.5 cm in males). CONCLUSIONS This validated preoperative prediction model for 1-year mortality after cEVAR incorporates physiological, functional, and anatomical variables. This novel and simplified scoring system can effectively discriminate mortality risk and, when applied prospectively, may facilitate improved preoperative decision-making, complex aneurysm care delivery, and resource allocation.

J Cardiothorac Surg 2024; 19:57. [PMID: 38311778 PMCID: PMC10840254 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-024-02550-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2024] [Indexed: 02/06/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of selective aneurysmal sac neck-targeted embolization in endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) in patients with a hostile neck anatomy (HNA). MATERIALS AND METHODS Between October 2020 and June 2022, patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and HNA who underwent EVAR with a low-profile stent graft and a selective aneurysmal sac neck-targeted embolization technique were analysed. An HNA was defined by the presence of any of the following parameters: infrarenal neck angulation > 60°; neck length < 15 mm; conical neck; circumferential calcification ≥ 50%; or thrombus ≥ 50%. Before occluding the entire aneurysm during the procedure, a buddy wire was loaded prophylactically into the sac through the contralateral limb side. If a type Ia endoleak (ELIa) occurred and persisted despite adjunctive treatment such as balloon moulding or cuff extension, this preloaded wire could be utilized to enable a catheter to reach the space between the stent graft and sac neck to perform coil embolization. In the absence of ELIa, the wire was simply retracted. The primary outcome of this study was freedom from sac expansion and endoleak-related reintervention during the follow-up period; secondary outcomes included technical success and intraoperative and in-hospital postoperative complications. RESULTS Among the 28 patients with a hostile neck morphology, 11 (39.5%) who presented with ELIa underwent intraprocedural treatment involving sac neck-targeted detachable coil embolization. Seventeen individuals (60.7%) of the total patient population did not undergo coiling. All patients in the coiling group underwent balloon moulding, and 2 patients additionally underwent cuff extension. In the noncoiling group, 14 individuals underwent balloon moulding as a treatment for ELIa, while 3 patients did not exhibit ELIa during the procedure. The coiling group showed longer operating durations (81.27 ± 11.61 vs. 70.71 ± 7.17 min, P < 0.01) and greater contrast utilization than the noncoiling group (177.45 ± 52.41 vs. 108.24 ± 17.49 ml, P < 0.01). In the entire cohort, the technical success rate was 100%, and there were no procedure-related complications. At a mean follow-up of 18.6 ± 5.2 months (range 12-31), there were no cases of sac expansion (19 cases of sac regression, 67.86%; 9 cases of stability, 32.14%) or endoleak-related reintervention. CONCLUSIONS Selective aneurysmal sac neck-targeted embolization for the treatment of ELIa in AAA patients with an HNA undergoing EVAR is safe and may prevent type Ia endoleak and related sac expansion after EVAR.

Abstract
Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAA) remain one of the most clinically challenging and technically complex emergencies in contemporary vascular surgery practice. Over the past 30 years, a variety of changes surrounding the treatment of rAAA have evolved including improvements in diagnosis, development of coordinated referral networks to transfer patients more efficiently to higher volume centers, deliberate de-escalation of pre-hospital resuscitation, modification of patient and procedure selection, implementation of clinical pathways, as well as enhanced awareness of certain high-impact postoperative complications. Despite these advances, current postoperative outcomes remain sobering since morbidity and mortality rates ranging from 25%-50% persist among modern published series. Some of the most impactful variation in rAAA management has been fostered by the rapid proliferation of endovascular repair (EVAR) along with service alignment at selected centers to improve timely revascularization. Indeed, clinical care pathways and emergency response networks are now increasingly utilized which has led to improved outcomes contemporaneously. Moreover, evolution in pre- and post-operative physiologic resuscitation has also contributed to observed improvements in rAAA outcomes. Due to different developments in care provision over time, the purpose of this review is to describe the modern management of rAAA, while providing historical perspectives on patient, procedure and systems-based practice elements that have evolved care delivery paradigms in this complex group of patients.

[PMID: 36135436 PMCID: PMC9502462 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd9090291] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: B cells and autoantibodies play an important role in the pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). IgG glycosylations are highly valued as potential disease biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Methods: Lectin microarray was applied to analyze the expression profile of serum IgG glycosylation in 75 patients with AAA, 68 autoimmune disease controls, and 100 healthy controls. Lectin blots were performed to validate the differences. The clinical relevance of lectins binding from the microarray results was explored in AAA patients. Results: Significantly lower binding level of SBA (preferred GalNAc) was observed for the AAA group compared with DCs (p < 0.001) and HCs (p = 0.049). A significantly lower binding level of ConA (preferred mannose) was observed in patients with aneurysm diameter >5 cm. Significantly higher binding of CSA (preferred GalNAc) was present for dyslipidemia patients, whereas a lower binding level of AAL (preferred fucose) was observed for hypertensive patients. Patients with diabetes had lower binding levels of IRA (preferred GalNAc) and HPA (preferred GalNAc) compared with those not with DM. PTL-L (R = 0.36, p = 0.0015, preferred GalNAc) was positively associated with aneurysm diameters, whereas DSL (R = 0.28, p = 0.014, preferred (GlcNAc)2-4) was positively associated with patients’ age. Symptomatic patients had a lower binding level of ConA (p = 0.032), and patients with coronary heart disease had higher binding levels of STL (p = 0.0029, preferred GlcNAc). Patients with ILT bound less with black bean crude (p = 0.04, preferred GalNAc). Conclusions: AAA was associated with a decreased IgG binding level of SBA (recognizing glycan GalNAc). Symptomatic patients with aneurysm <5 cm had a higher binding level of ConA (preferred mannose). Coronary heart disease and elder age were associated with increased IgG bisecting GlcNAc. IgG O-glycosylation (GalNAc) may play an important role in AAA pathogenesis and progression.
