Cases and resources in vascular techniques
This section provides a selection of cases and resources provided by experts in vascular techniques.
In this special PVI Course 2024 session, experts present key findings from recent studies on lower extremity treatments.
In this brief interview from PVI Course 2024, Andrej Schmidt discusses two innovative approaches in vascular surgery. First, he highlights a bioresorbable scaffold study, which shows promising results in improving patency and reducing re-interventions for frail patients with critical limb ischemia below the knee, while noting its limitations in treating long, calcified, or very distal lesions. He also delves into the encouraging early outcomes of a totally percutaneous bypass technique, offering a simplified method for addressing complex femoropopliteal lesions, including chronic total occlusions and restenoses.
Highlights include the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous axillary artery access for complex EVAR, AI-based risk prediction for spinal cord ischemia after EVAR, and the benefits of remote monitoring and blood pressure management after Type B dissection.
A comprehensive session exploring advanced strategies for CLTI management: from novel anatomical concepts like the "woundosome," to endovascular breakthroughs, bypass pearls, and the challenges of deep venous arterialisation. Expert speakers share data, experience, and open questions shaping the future of limb salvage.
This PVI 2024 session explored advanced aortic techniques, including in situ laser fenestrations (ISLF) for urgent arch and thoracoabdominal pathologies. The session also covered challenges in starting an endovascular aortic program, physician-modified endografts (PMEG) without patient-specific templates, acute Type B dissection management, FET techniques, and troubleshooting four-branch endograft bridging stent dislodgement.
Replay this PVI 2024 aortic session to explore how vascular and cardiac surgeons can work together to improve outcomes in frozen elephant trunk repair. Gain key cardiology insights every vascular surgeon should know, see how fully retrograde branches to the supra-aortic trunks are used during arch repair, and discover how aortic wrapping can secure long-term results after arch and TAAA F/BEVAR.
This PVI 2024 session replay presents the latest LBTs in peripheral intervention, including updated insights from the T.I.N.T.I.N. trial, DEEPER OUS two-year results, the BIO-OSCAR SOC assessment, and 24-month outcomes of the COVERA PLUS covered stent in iliac artery disease. Discover how these studies inform patient selection, device performance, and current best practices.
Explore key insights into managing carotid artery disease, from stroke risk in asymptomatic patients and tandem lesion strategies to the benefits of routine imaging post-endarterectomy, safe transfemoral CAS tips, challenges of post-radiotherapy stenosis, and the role of IVL for calcified lesions.
Barbara Rantner shares her insights on the ‘Live in the Box - Carotid’ session at #pvi Course 2024, where she delivered a compelling presentation titled ‘Routine completion imaging after carotid endarterectomy makes the difference!’
