Clinical Effectiveness of an Off-the-shelf Single REnal Scalloped sTent-graft for HOstile NEck Infrarenal...
Abdominal Aortic AneurysmThe goal of this multicenter, observational cohort study is to evaluates the clinical effectiveness of a single-renal scallop custom-made stent-graft (TREO, Terumo Aortic, Sunrise, FL) to treat "hostile" AAA with mismatched renal arteries as actual standard of care in this Vascular Unit The main question it aims to answer are: if a dedicated devices could improve the results in the endovascular treatment of patients suffering to infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurism with a mismatched takeoff of the renal arteries. Participants responding to inclusion criteria will be treated as best clinical practice with a custom made device with a single scallop for the renal artery. The minimum follow-up requested, as standard clinical practice, was: 3-months, 12-18 months- and 5-years CTA; clinical and DUS examination at 6- and 12- and 36-months after the intervention and yearly thereafter. No comparison group was present.
Optimizing CO2 Injection Technique for EVAR
Abdominal Aortic AneurysmEndovascular Aortic RepairAutomated carbon dioxide (CO2) angiography is considered a safe diagnostic alternative to standard iodinated contrast medium (ICM) for endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), especially in patients with preoperative renal function impairment. Recent literature experiences describe the use of automated CO2 angiography in EVAR. One of the main issues of CO2 angiography is the inability to detect the origin of the lowest renal artery (proximal neck visualization) that was estimated up to 38%. In these experiences, the CO2 automated angiography is usually performed by a 5F pigtail catheter placed at renal arteries level. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of a new automated CO2 injection technique by a 5F introducer (single hole catheter) positioned at the distal level of the proximal neck in detecting both renal arteries in the first diagnostic and completion angiographies.

Early Postprocedural Susceptibility-Weighted Imaging and Vessel-Wall Imaging For Prediction of Complications...
Early Susceptibility-Weighted Imaging and Vessel-Wall Imaging Findings After Flow-Diversion Treatment of Intracranial AneurysmsPurpose: Examination of microangiopathic changes that may develop after flow-directed stenting of intracranial aneurysms with susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI), and vessel wall imaging (VWI) of vessel wall inflammation that may be associated with stenosis in the stented vessel and rupture of the aneurysm. Methods: SWI and VWI examinations will be performed before and after treatment in patients who are planned for flow-directing aneurysm treatment. Clinical follow-up of the cases will be performed during the first 3 months post-procedure. At the end of the 3rd month, SAG and DDG findings related to and unrelated to intracranial hemorrhage will be detected by control imaging.

Comparison of a Full Automatic Software With Standard Methods of Vessels Analysis
Abdominal Aortic AneurysmThe treatment of aortic aneurysms is today based on different indicators (diameters, lengths, angles, volumes of the arteries) measured on CT scan images. Several indicators are time consuming and complicatated to measure. They demand training and practice. Nurea is developing a software for automatic measurement of these indicators, PRAEVAorta® 2, to facilitate and assist the physician in his clinical routine. The purpose of this study is to compare the analysis realised by the software PRAEVAorta® 2 with the analysis realised by the healthcare professional on retrospective CT scan images. Contrasted and non-contrasted, pre-operation or post-operation CT scans from 50 patients will be analysed. The main objectif is to validate the accuracy of the software by demonstrating its adequacy to the standard method of analysis. The second objectives are the following: Evaluate the security of the software PRAEVAorta® 2 Evaluate the unanticipated risks related to the use of the software Validate the accessory PRAEVAorta® Web We make the following assumption : 90% of the patients show 90% of adequacy to the healthcare professional analysis
