ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: The objective of this systematic review was to report the cumulative incidence of endograft migration (EM), as well as the morbidity, reintervention rates, and mortality related to EM. This study aimed to provide evidence-based data on patient-relevant sequelae of EM after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) performed using contemporary aortic endografts. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic electronic search of literature in MEDLINE (via PubMed), Web of Science, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was performed. The pooled synthesis of outcomes was performed using the inverse variance method. RESULTS: Seven prospective non-randomized and 4 retrospective studies, including a total of 1783 patients presenting 70 EMs, were considered for the quantitative analysis. The pooled rate of EM was 4% (95% CI, 2%-7%; range, 0.2%-11%; I2=82%); pooled morbidity rate was 31% (95% CI, 12%-59%; range, 0%-100%; I2=64%) and pooled reintervention rate was 32% (95% CI, 15%-56%; range, 0%-100%; I2=55%). The pooled mortality rate due to EM was 5% (95% CI, 1%-21%; range, 0%-40%; I2=24%). CONCLUSION: For the first time, this meta-analysis provides pooled reference estimates of EM after TEVAR. Thus, the results hold the potential to further characterize EM after TEVAR. The clinical relevance of EM is underlined by its association with high rates of endoleak-related morbidity, reintervention, and mortality. Close standardized surveillance after TEVAR for early detection of EM and prophylaxis of its sequelae is essential.

ABSTRACT

The approach to aortic pathology is nowadays more and more endovascular at both thoracic and abdominal levels. Thoracic stenting has gained worldwide acceptance as first intention to treat pathologies of the descending thoracic aorta. Indications have been extended to aortic arch aneurysms and also to diseases of the ascending aorta. The current devices in use for thoracic endovascular repair (TEVAR) are Medtronic Valiant, Gore TAG, Cook Tx2 and Jotec. The choice of the endograft depends on the thoracic aortic pathology and the anatomical suitability. The technological evolution of the abdominal aortic endografts was very rapid, arriving now at the fourth generation. We report the results of 55 elective cases of endovascular abdominal aortic repair (EVAR) performed in two vascular surgical centers in Romania and Germany. The prostheses used were 16 E-vita Abdominal XT, 12 Excluder, eight Talent, seven PowerLink, three Endurant and nine custom-made, fenestrated or branched from Jotec. The mean follow-up was 18 months with CT-scan, duplex ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound. The mortality was 2%. EVAR tends to become the gold standard for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Technological development of the devices with lowest profile introduction systems will permit to extend the anatomical indications to new frontiers.
