Abstract

Background: In this study, we present our mid-term results in patients undergoing treatment with the funnel technique and describe technical issues for this bailout technique in extra-wide infrarenal necks. Methods: Between January 2018 and June 2020, a total of seven male, symptomatic patients (median: 74.5 years; range, 64 to 84 years) who had comorbidities and were in the American Society for Anesthesiologists Class IV and treated by the funnel technique in an endovascular fashion were included. Pre- and post-procedural data of the patients, early mortality and technical success rates were evaluated. Results: There was no early mortality. Technical success rate was 100%. There was no type I or III endoleaks at the completion angiography. All patients were discharged without any problem on the second or third day of the procedure. The median follow-up was 13 (range, 6 to 28) months. The aneurysm sac shrinkage was achieved in all patients over six months of follow up. During the follow-up period, no proximal endoleak or infrarenal aortic neck diameter enlargement was found. Conclusion: Based on our limited experience, the funnel technique may be considered more than a bailout procedure under special circumstances

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada huni tekniği ile tedavi edilen hastaların orta dönem sonuçları sunuldu ve ekstra geniş infrarenal boyunlarda bu kurtarma tekniğinin teknik hususları tanımlandı. Çalışma planı: Ocak 2018 - Haziran 2020 tarihleri arasında eşlik eden hastalıkları olan ve Amerikan Anesteziyoloji Derneği Sınıf IV olan ve endovasküler olarak huni tekniği ile tedavi edilen toplam yedi erkek semptomatik hasta (medyan yaş: 74.5 yıl; dağılım, 64-84 yıl) çalışmaya alındı. Hastaların işlem öncesi ve sonrası verileri, erken mortalite ve teknik başarı oranları değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Erken mortalite görülmedi. Teknik başarı oranı %100 idi. İşlem sonrası anjiyografide tip I veya tip III kaçak yoktu. İşlemin ikinci veya üçüncü gününde tüm hastalar sorunsuz olarak taburcu edildi. Medyan takip süresi 13 (dağılım, 6-28) ay idi. Altı ayın üzerinde takibi olan hastalarda anevrizma kesesinde küçülme sağlandı. Takip süresi boyunca proksimal kaçak veya infrarenal aort boynu çapı genişlemesi saptanmadı. Sonuç: Sınırlı deneyimimize göre, huni tekniği, özel koşullar altında bir kurtarma işleminden daha fazlası olarak düşünülebilir.
