New data support role of F/BEVAR for treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms

A recent prospective, multicentre cohort study provides insights into early and late aortic-related mortality and rupture after fenestrated and branched endovascular aneurysm repair (F/BEVAR) of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs). Researchers claim these are likely to represent the most comprehensive data…
Viz.ai receives FDA 510(k) clearance for abdominal aortic aneurysm AI algorithm

Viz.ai recently announced it has received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance for its algorithm intended to detect suspected abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Viz AAA is the first FDA-cleared AI-powered solution for the detection and triage of suspected AAA,…
VESS: Hospital Volume Is Tied to the Outcomes of Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
Contemporary data on outcomes in open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) repair is limited to reports from major aortic reference centers showing excellent outcomes, rather than broad-based, real-world observations. In order to deal with this deficiency, Virendra I. Patel, MD, and…
Computational model found to predict early aortic abdominal aneurysm rupture

In Physics of Fluids, by AIP Publishing, researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi and Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur made a computational model of the cardiovascular system in order to predict early abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture…
How important is complex endovascular aortic training in the current landscape?

Just a few years ago, it was commonly accepted that training in complex endovascular aortic operations (e.g. physician-modified endografts [PMEGs], use of in-situ laser fenestration, redo-branched aortic interventions etc.) depended heavily on the location and practice of the institution where…
Terumo Aortic announces launch of Fenestrated Treo pivotal IDE study in US

Terumo Aortic today announced enrollment of the first patient in the Fenestrated Treo pivotal investigational device exemption (IDE) study in the U.S. This study is designed to evaluate the endovascular repair of juxtarenal and suprarenal aortic aneurysms using the Fenestrated…
ViTAA Medical announces FDA 510(k) clearance for aortic planning platform

ViTAA Medical today announced that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) clearance for AiORTA Plan, which the company describes as a “fully automated, hyper-precise aortic surgery planning solution”. The tool aims to automate key preoperative measurements and…
Terumo Aortic and Bentley announce collaboration on US FEVAR study

Terumo Aortic and Bentley today announced their partnership in a clinical study in the USA. The objective is to obtain US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) investigational device exemption (IDE) approval for Terumo Aortic’s fenestrated Treo device, in combination with…
Transatlantic multicenter experience highlights effectiveness of total endovascular aortic repair with F/BEVAR but 5% risk of major stroke

Staged total endovascular aortic repair (TEAR) utilizing arch branched and thoracoabdominal fenestrated and branched endografts is effective, but identified predictors of morbidity and mortality—including stroke—highlight the importance of individualized risk assessment to optimize outcomes. These are some of the key…
CX 2025: EVAR founding fathers invoke revolutionary past to predict path ahead for aortic stent graft development

The next spring forward in aortic stent grafting will be rooted in a greater understanding of the biomechanical forces acting upon devices alongside continued advances and specialization in imaging, according to some of the founding fathers of endovascular aneurysm repair…
