The Rising Tide Of Vascular Disease: Why We Must Act Now
Vascular disease is accelerating at a pace that rivals other major chronic conditions, yet it remains under-recognized, under-diagnosed, and under-treated. By 2030, more than 100 million people will be at risk of developing significant vascular diseases. For too many, the first sign of trouble is not a warning – it’s a life-altering event: a stroke, limb loss, or aneurysm rupture.
A message from the SVS president
As we come together for VAM 2025, I want to take a moment to reflect on the remarkable progress we’ve made over the past year and to thank each of you for your dedication to our shared mission. This past year has been one of bold action, strategic growth and meaningful impact.
Prospective randomized pilot trial comparing prophylactic vs therapeutic cerebrospinal fluid drainage during complex endovascular thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair
Background Endovascular techniques have transformed the management of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs). However, spinal cord ischemia (SCI) remains a prevalent and devastating complication. Prophylactic drainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is among the proposed strategies for prevention of SCI.
A pilot study to evaluate a novel localized treatment to stabilize small- to medium-sized infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms
Objective: There is no proven therapy to reduce growth rates of small- to medium-sized abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). Ex vivo and animal studies have demonstrated that a novel stabilizing agent, 1,2,3,4,6-pentagalloyl glucose (PGG), delivered locally to the aneurysm sac, can bind to elastin and collagen to re-establish strength and resist enzymatic degradation.
Implementation Of Quality Improvement Protocol To Decrease Length Of Stay After Elective Carotid Endarterectomy
National guidelines stipulate that postoperative length of stay (LOS) after elective carotid endarterectomy (CEA) should not exceed one day, yet perioperative factors may limit institutions progress toward this goal. We designed and implemented a quality improvement (QI) protocol aiming to improve institutional performance in postoperative LOS after CEA.
March 2022 Issue - Endovascular Today
Utility of Registry Analysis of Long-Term EVAR Trends Moderator Jack Cronenwett, MD, asks a group of expert panelists about improving EVAR follow-up across patient populations, advantages and limitations of registry data to evaluate devices, efforts to link data across registries, and how to support future study efforts. With Benjamin Brooke, MD, PhD, FACS, DFSVS; Philip P. Goodney, MD, MS; Kevin Mani, MD, PhD, FEBVS; Marc Schermerhorn, MD; Ramon L.
Abstract: Background Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACoS) is a devastating complication after endovascular aneurysm repair for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rEVAR). This study sought to develop a risk score for ACoS to identify patients who would benefit from early decompressive laparotomy. Methods Model derivation was performed with VQI data for rEVAR from 2013-2020. The primary outcome was evacuation of abdominal hematoma.
EVAR Versus the Endoleak
Few things are more frustrating after an endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) than visualizing an endoleak on follow-up imaging. Even the name is bothersome—it confuses patients (and some medical providers) and is equated to having a “leaking aneurysm.” Other than their clear annoyance to me, how devastating are endoleaks to the long-term durability of EVAR?
Updates in Endovascular Procedural Navigation In Canadian Journal of Cardiology
Abstract There have been significant advancements in endovascular technology over the past decade. Increasingly complex disease processes are being addressed in a less invasive fashion, while still relying on standard two-dimensional, gray-scale fluoroscopy imaging to guide the procedures.
Differences in Aortic Intramural Hematoma Contrast Attenuation On Multi-Phase CTA Predict Long-term Aortic Morphologic Change
INTRODUCTION Evolution of aortic intramural hematoma (IMH) over time ranges from resolution to degeneration and is difficult to predict. We sought to measure differences in contrast attenuation between arterial and delayed phase computed tomographic angiography (CTA) METHODS IMH institutional data were gathered for 2005-2020. Hounsfield unit ratio (HUR) was measured as hematoma Hounsfield unit (HU) on delayed phase divided by arterial phase on CTA.
Panel Discussion: What Attributes Are Necessary for the Ideal Branch Stent?
Overview of Branch Stents By Matthew J. Eagleton, MD, and Sanghyun Ahn, MD A key component of fenestrated and branched endovascular aortic repair (F/BEVAR) is the bridging stent that connects the aortic component to the target vessel. The durability of this stent is the keystone to the success of the technique.

A Revolution of EVAR Imaging Technologies
Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has dramatically evolved over the past 2 decades—from relatively simple tubular endografts to extraordinarily complex branched endografts that allow endovascular coverage from the sinotubular junction through the iliac bifurcation. With this increasing complexity of repairs, parallel improvements in imaging and navigation technologies have ensued.
Two strategies feasible after failed EVAR
After failed endovascular aortic aneurysm repair, explant and fenestrated-branched endovascular aortic aneurysm repair are feasible and associated with similar outcomes, according to a presentation at the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Annual Meeting. Researchers retrospectively analyzed 247 patients (mean age, 75 years; 87% men) who underwent explant (n = 162) or fenestrated-branched EVAR (n = 85) after failed EVAR between 1999 and 2016.
