Why the study?

Is simultaneous TEVAR and EVAR safe and effective in patients with concomitant thoracic and abdominal aortic pathologies?

Structured PICO

Is simultaneous TEVAR and EVAR safe and effective in patients with concomitant thoracic and abdominal aortic pathologies?

Population

21 patients (20 men; mean age 65 ± 7 years) with concomitant thoracic pathologies (aneurysm, penetrating aortic ulcer, intramural hematoma, or dissection) and abdominal aortic aneurysm (diameters 5.9-10 cm).

Intervention

Simultaneous thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) and abdominal endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).

Outcome

Technique success and procedure-related complications.safety

Simultaneous TEVAR and EVAR appears technically feasible and safe for patients with multilevel aortic diseases, with a 100% technical success rate in this small single-center series.

Discussion

No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.

Implication

Supports feasibility in select multilevel aortic cases; leaves open long-term safety and efficacy in larger studies.
