Abstrakt: Objective: To investigate outcomes of a novel, off the shelf multibranched endovascular stent graft for the treatment of thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) and pararenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (PAAA).
Methods: A prospective, single centre study including 15 patients (mean age, 63.4 ± 10.7 years; 13 male) with TAAA or PAAA treated from October 2019 to March 2021 with a G-Branch endograft (Lifetech Scientific, Shenzhen, China) featuring a mixed multibranch design with two inner and two outer branches for reconstruction of the visceral and bilateral renal arteries, respectively. Follow up assessments were scheduled before discharge and at 30 days, six and 12 months after the index procedure. Annual telephone interviews were performed beyond the initial 12 months. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate cumulative mortality and morbidity rates after endovascular repair.
Results: Technical success was achieved in all 15 patients. Nine patients (60%) had TAAA and six (40%) had PAAA (mean maximum aneurysm diameter, 73.7 ± 15.8 mm). The median follow up was 31.4 months (range, 10.1 - 44.0 months). At 30 days, there was no death and 7% morbidity (one case of temporary spinal cord ischaemia on Day 4). At one year, the mortality rate was 7% (one death from stroke at 10 months) and morbidity was 13% (one other case of renal function decline at six months). There were no aneurysm dilatations, re-interventions, or access related complications, and two (13%) persistent type II endoleaks. The one year primary branch patency rate was 100% for the four renovisceral arteries in all 13 patients who underwent computed tomography examinations. One patient died of hepatocellular carcinoma 29 months post-operatively, resulting in an estimated three year mortality rate of 13%.
Conclusion: The G-Branch endograft yielded high technical success with good early and midterm outcomes for the treatment of TAAA and PAAA. A large multicentre study is warranted.
