Can the dissection system withstand a thorough clinically evaluation in a quest to find the safest and most effective treatment options? Can it be anticipated that the STABLE trial result in a confirmation of the company’s success of introducing the Cook Zenith Dissection Endovascular System? What are the options and the respective outcomes for […]

Why do the current guidelines recommend that screening be only performed for men? Will the estimated number of approximately 4.5 million people in the developed world who are living with an abdominal aortic aneurysm benefit from screening efforts? How many AAA patients will be added each year to the 600,000 new cases that are diagnosed […]

Is endovascular stent-graft repair of thoracic aortic disease associated with severe neurologic complications? Do the univariate analysis and multivariate regression models show the significance of clinical factors? Is perioperative paraplegia or paraparesis significantly associated with blockage of the left subclavian artery?
