Abstract:
Purpose: To investigate whether patients who develop aneurysm sac shrinkage following endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) have better outcomes than patients with a stable or increased aneurysm sac. Materials and Methods: The Healthcare Databases Advanced Search interface developed by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence was used to interrogate MEDLINE and EMBASE. Thesaurus headings were adapted accordingly. Case-control studies were identified comparing outcomes in patients demonstrating aneurysm sac shrinkage after EVAR with those of patients with a stable or expanded aneurysm sac. Pooled estimates of dichotomous outcome data were calculated using the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Meta-analysis of time-to-event data was conducted using the inverse-variance method; the results are reported as a summary hazard ratio (HR) and 95% CI. Summary outcome estimates were calculated using random-effects models. Results: Eight studies were included in quantitative synthesis reporting a total of 17,096 patients (8518 patients with sac shrinkage and 8578 patients without sac shrinkage). The pooled incidence of sac shrinkage at 12 months was 48% (95% CI 40% to 56%). Patients with aneurysm sac shrinkage had a significantly lower hazard of death (HR 0.73, 95% CI 0.60 to 0.87), secondary interventions (HR 0.42, 95% CI 0.29 to 0.62), and late complications (HR 0.37, 95% CI 0.24 to 0.56) than patients with a stable or increased aneurysm sac. Furthermore, their odds of rupture were significantly lower than those in patients without shrinkage (OR 0.09, 95% CI 0.02 to 0.36). Conclusion: Sac regression is correlated to improved survival and a reduced rate of secondary interventions and EVAR-related complications. The prognostic significance of sac regression should be considered in surveillance strategies. Intensified surveillance should be applied in patients who fail to achieve sac regression following EVAR.

Abstract:
Type 2 endoleaks usually constitute a benign and self-limited phenomenon, which rarely leads to aneurysmal sac expansion. However, in a small subset of patients, a persistent type 2 endoleak might pressurise the aneurysmal sac causing expansion. The authors present two cases with delayed new-onset type 2 endoleak. One occurred after standard endovascular aortic repair and the other after chimney endovascular aortic repair, causing expansion of the aneurysmal sac after a period of complete aneurysmal sac shrinkage. Accordingly, there is a risk of sac re-expansion due to delayed onset endoleaks, independent of the technique, justifying the need for a continuous follow-up despite long-term aneurysmal sac shrinkage.

Abstract:
The suitability of applying shrinkage reducing additives in alkali activated coal gangue-slag composites is discussed in this study. The effect of sulphoaluminate cement (SAC), high performance concrete expansion agent (HCSA) and U-type expansion agent (UEA) on the reaction process, shrinkage behavior, phase composition, microstructure and mechanical properties are evaluated. The results show that the addition of SAC slightly mitigates the early stage reaction process, while HCSA and UEA can either accelerate or inhibit the reaction depending on their dosage. The addition of SAC presents an ideal balance between drying shrinkage reduction and strength increment. As for HCSA and UEA, the shrinkage and mechanical properties are sensitive to their replacement level; excessive dosage would result in remarkable strength reduction and expansion. The specific surface area and average pore size of the hardened matrix are found to be closely related with shrinkage behavior. SAC addition introduces additional hydrotalcite phases within the reaction products, while HCSA and UEA mainly result in the formation of CaCO3 and Ca(OH)2. It is concluded that applying expansive additives can be an effective approach in reducing the drying shrinkage of alkali activated coal gangue-slag mixtures, while their type and dosage must be carefully handled.

Abstract:
Purpose: To test the hypothesis that stent-graft support influences sac shrinkage independent of endoleak rates after endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Methods: Ninety AAA patients underwent treatment with bifurcated endoluminal devices at our institution between October 1996 and February 1999. Fifty-two patients were treated using a nonsupported (NS) Ancure endograft and 38 using a fully supported (FS) Excluder endograft. Computed tomographic (CT) scans were obtained during the first postoperative month and at 6, 12, and 24-month intervals. Aneurysm diameter was measured as the minor axis of the largest AAA axial slice on the CT scan. Six, 12, and 24-month sac sizes were compared to the first postoperative evaluation. Results: Successful endoluminal graft placement was accomplished in all patients. The two groups were matched for age, anatomical criteria, and comorbidities except for baseline AAA size: the mean diameter was 5.4 cm in the NS group and 5.0 cm for the FS group (p<0.01). Endoleak rates were 25% (13/52) in the NS group and 18% (7/38) in the FS group (p<0.05) at 1 month. All endoleaks that did not resolve spontaneously at 6 months were treated. Initial endoleak status did not affect the sac shrinkage rates at the 12 and 24-month evaluations. At 2 years, the NS group had greater shrinkage of the sac (1.2 cm) versus the FS cohort (0.3 cm, p<0.05). In addition, more patients in the NS group had sac shrinkage >5 mm (83% versus 18%, p<0.05). Conclusions: Despite a higher endoleak rate, the nonsupported Dacron Ancure endografts were associated with greater sac shrinkage at up to 24 months following implantation.

Abstract:
Background: Aneurysm shrinkage has been proposed as a marker of successful endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). We evaluated the impact of sac shrinkage on secondary interventions, on survival and its association with endoleaks, and on compliance with instructions for use (IFU). Methods: This observational retrospective study was conducted on all consecutive patients receiving EVAR for an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) using exclusively Endurant II/IIs endograft from 2014 to 2018. Sixty patients were entered in the study. Aneurysm sac shrinkage was defined as decrease ≥5 mm of the maximum aortic diameter. Univariate methods and Kaplan–Meier plots assessed the potential impact of shrinkage. Results: Twenty-six patients (43.3%) experienced shrinkage at one year, and thirty-four (56.7%) had no shrinkage. Shrinkage was not significantly associated with any demographics or morbidity, except hypertension (p = 0.01). No aneurysm characteristics were associated with shrinkage. Non-compliance with instructions for use (IFU) in 13 patients (21.6%) was not associated with shrinkage. Three years after EVAR, freedom from secondary intervention was 85 ± 2% for the entire series, 92.3 ± 5.0% for the shrinkage group and 83.3 ± 9% for the no-shrinkage group (Logrank: p = 0.49). Survival at 3 years was not significantly different between the two groups (85.9 ± 7.0% vs. 79.0 ± 9.0%, Logrank; p = 0.59). Strict compliance with IFU was associated with less reinterventions at 3 years (92.1 ± 5.9% vs. 73.8 ± 15%, Logrank: p = 0.03). Similarly, survival at 3 years did not significantly differ between strict compliance with IFU and non-compliance (81.8 ± 7.0% vs. 78.6 ± 13.0%, Logrank; p = 0.32). Conclusion: This study suggests that shrinkage ≥5 mm at 1-year is not significantly associated with a better survival rate or a lower risk of secondary intervention than no-shrinkage. In this series, the risk of secondary intervention regardless of shrinkage seems to be linked more to non-compliance with IFU. Considering the small number of patients, these results must be confirmed by extensive prospective studies.

Abstract:
Background Morbidity and mortality from Thoraco-abdominal aneurysms are tremendous. Preoperative assessment in predicting cardiac and pulmonary risk factors in order to reduce cardiopulmonary complications, paraplegia, and renal failure are the main determinants of postoperative mortality and therefore gained substantial attention during the last decades.(Jacobs MJ et al.,2007) Left heart by-pass, CSF drainage and epidural cooling have significantly reduced the paraplegia rates. Monitoring MEPs allowed detection of cord ischemia,(spinal cord ischemic injury, SCII) guiding aggressive surgical strategies to restore spinal cord blood supply and reduce neurological deficit. It’s believed that these protective measures should be included in the surgical protocol of TAAA repair type II cases. (Jacobs MJ et al.,2007) Renal and visceral ischemia can be reduced significantly by continuous perfusion during TAAA repair. (Jacobs MJ et al.,2007) Obviously endovascular modalities have been successfully applied in TAAA patients, the majority apart of hybrid procedures. Technological innovations will eventually cause a shift from open to minimal invasive surgical repair. (Jacobs MJ et al.,2007) The multilayer aneurysm repair system (MARS) is a flow modulator and part of the fluid smart© technology platform developed by Cardiatis, Isne-Belgium. The MARS is self-expanding and composed of multiple cobalt alloy interconnected braided layers the 3D geometrical configuration gurantees an optimal porosity range for stent from 2 to 50mm in diameter providing unique flow modulating features. The innovative multilayer flow modulating device offers a paradigm shift approach to the treatment of these complicated aneurysms by physiologically (rather than mechanically ) excluding aneurysms from the circulation, while keeping branches patent and preserving critical collateral circulation.(C.Vaislic et al.,2011) Its 3D geometrical and structural gives rise to several important hemodynamic and biological effects i.e, in a secular aneurysm it reduces the vortex velocity within the aneurysm sac creating a remodeled organized thrombus, it transforms turbulent flow into laminar flow preserving collateral circulation when over stenting collaterals or in a fusiform aneurysm, it accelerates and channels the flow into a branching aneurysm open branch enhancement and accelerates shear flow along the parent vessel, resulting in inhibition of intimal hyperplasia. (C.Vaislic et al.,2011) Theoretical basic principles of the device are very attractive and the most important of which is preserving the collaterals and improving their flow. Sac thrombosis and sac shrinkage don’t  usually occur immediately, several factors could play a role as collateral branches and this should be studied and determined preoperatively.(M.Henry,2011) Preliminary clinical results are satisfactory and promising but larger experience and longer follow up are still needed. (M.Henry,2011) Hypothesis The results of endovascular treatment for thoraco-abdominal aneurysms are now comparable with the open surgical procedure. However, endovascular repair in the thoraco-abdominal aorta has been limited due to the complexity of keeping the side branches (intercostals ,renal, visceral) perfused. Attempts are being made to adapt endoluminal stent-graft by using custom fenestrations and branched graft. While preliminary data showed concept feasibility, this technique is still investigational and requires highly skilled operator and custom made devices for each patient. Aim of the work 1- To study the availability of the new technique in management of TAAA. 2- To shed lights on the technique of deploying the new device. 3- To review the outcome and complications of this new device before introducing this technique as a standard utility. 4- To shed lights over the new evolving biomedical technology in vascular surgery This will be supported by the French STRATO trial and by a number of cases done at multi- european centers Keywords Thoraco-abdominal aneurysms, Multilayer Aneurysm Repair System (MARS) Intimal hyperplasia, Sac shrinkage, Sac thrombosis, Ischemia References 1- Jacobs MJ, Mommertz G, koeppel TA, Langer S, Nijenhuis RJ, Mess WH, Schurink GW.

Abstract:
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are a common pathology that is found in 4–9% of patients in the developed world. Risk factors for AAAs include age, male sex, family history, comorbid cardiovascular disease, and smoking. Despite the male predominance of the disease, rupture occurs at a smaller diameter in females, and the outcomes are poorer in this subgroup. Flow-modulating stents are a relatively new development and consist of multilayered bare-metal self-expanding stents. Despite the inherent porosity of the stents, the interconnected stent matrix features flow-diverting properties that preserve luminal and branch vessel flow while simultaneously depressurizing the aneurysm sac, resulting in shrinkage and thrombosis. Flow-modulating stents are unavailable in the United States. This chapter discusses in vivo construction of a flow-modulating stent and its potential applications and complications.

Abstract:
Weld shrinkage data models were developed for thin uniform and complex ship-panels to predict in-plane shrinkage. The complex features in the thin panels include cutouts, inserts, multiple thicknesses, and non-rectangular shaped panels. By analyzing the measured data, it was found that there was no clear indication that a cutout affected the overall panel in-plane shrinkage although it induced more out-of-plane distortion. It was observed that the inserts induced additional butt joint across-weld and along-weld shrinkage and did not affect the fillet-weld shrinkage. The weld shrinkage data models were embedded in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets for ease of use. The spreadsheets permit the user to input the panel design parameters including material type, plate thickness, stiffener shape, spacing, and length, and overall panel dimensions, as well as complex-panel features that include inserts, multiple plate thicknesses, and non-rectangular-shaped panels. The user can also provides fabrication details, such as the welding process, weld sizes, welding parameters, and the use of fixtures.

Abstract:
Since ship hull blocks are constructed by assembling numerous intermediate parts, negligible dimensional variations in the parts can easily accumulate to cause serious misalignment in block erection stage. Considering the welding – the primary joining process in ship production which inherently causes distortions, the quality of block’s dimensional variations during the assembly would deteriorate even faster. Thinking that the intermediate products with low dimensional quality in the ship production are not scrapped but reworked, the productivity of each workstation greatly depends on the dimensional quality of these dimensionally critical intermediate products. Reworks such as recutting, mechanical and/or thermal correction against misalignment, excessive welding for wide gap and thermal straightening are commonly subsequently increases the total production cost. One of the major dimensional accuracy control activities is the shrinkage margin design. The optimal length of excess edge is assigned to plates in order to compensate welding shrinkage. In the past, the welding shrinkage is predicted based mostly on the empirical formula or just designer's experience, so the accuracy of the assigned was relatively poor and could not effectively help reducing non-value-added rework activities. The simplified margin calculation procedure could not consider the welding sequence as well as process variations such as welding heat input. This work aims to develop the optimal shrinkage margin calculation system for dimensional quality improvement. The proposed system calculates the optimal shrinkage margin using computer-aided engineering toolsets based on finite element analysis as well as design point searching procedure adopting the quality loss function and statistical values considering shrinkage variation values during welding. The developed scheme improves the accuracy control procedure in the ship production process thus enhance competitiveness of shipbuilders in dimensional accuracy technology by minimizing the accuracy impact on productivity.

Abstract:
A plurality of articles discussing combined effects of acoustic high-pressure and heat caused by acoustic vibration on biological tissues and cells has been published. Herein, we contribute the article describing the behavior of living human skin cells when separately applying the pressure and the heat to them. First, for finding the heat effect, we located a container including living human skin cells and a culturing medium on the X-Y stage equipped with the heating plate with temperature controller of the Scanning Acoustic Microscope (SAM). Then, we gradually increased temperature of the culturing medium, and carried out in-situ observation. Second, for finding the acoustic high-power effect, we provided the pressure using high power ultrasonic pulses generated by a laser induced ultrasonic shock wave system to the cells, wherein the pressures caused by the pulses were measured by a hydrophone, and wherein temperature was monitored by thermocouples. The cells were observed with the SAM just after giving the impact. The difference between phenomena indicating cellular insult and injury (e.g., shrinkage or lift-off) were clearly visualized by the SAM with frequency at 1.0 GHz.
