Un seguimiento mínimo y apropiado reduce la mortalidad luego de una endoprótesis

Minimum Appropriate Follow-Up Reduces Mortality After Endoprosthesis Implantation

Minimum Appropriate Follow-Up Reduces Mortality After Endoprosthesis Implantation

No study has been able to prove long-term benefit of regular imaging follow-up after abdominal aortic aneurysm repair by means of endoprosthesis implantation. This is important because the costs for these studies are high, which should be added to potential radiation and contrast morbidity. This work sought to characterize the association between post-endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm

Comparing Computed Tomography vs. Angiography to Assess Transfemoral Access for TAVI

Original Title: Transfemoral Access Assessment for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Evidence Based Application of Computed Tomography over Invasive Angiography. Reference: Circ Cardiovas Imaging 2015 DOI:10.1161/CIRCIMAGING.114.0011995. Courtesy of Dr. Guillermo Migliaro Transfemoral access for TAVI was introduced in 2006 and is considered first choice. Vascular complications (VCs) are important events that correlate to increased mortality. According to the
