The effect of supraceliac versus infraceliac landing zone on outcomes following fenestrated endovascular repair of juxta-/pararenal aortic aneurysms.
The purpose of this study was to assess perioperative outcomes in patients in the Vascular Quality Initiative who underwent juxta-/pararenal FEVAR with supraceliac vs infraceliac sealing. 1,486 Patients who received an elective FEVAR for juxta-/pararenal aortic aneurysms in the Vascular Quality Initiative between 2014 and 2021were identified and included.
The researchers defined supraceliac sealing as proximal sealing in aortic zone 5, or zone 6 with a celiac scallop/fenestration/branch or celiac occlusion. The study’s primary outcomes were perioperative and 3-year mortality, and secondary outcomes were completion endoleaks, in-hospital complications, and variables related with 3-year mortality. The study found that of the included patients, 84% underwent infraceliac sealing, and 16% underwent supraceliac sealing. Of the supraceliac patients, 60% had a celiac fenestration/branch, 31% had a celiac scallop, and 9.2% had a celiac occlusion (intentional or unintentional). Compared with infraceliac sealing, there were no differences after risk-adjusted analysis in perioperative mortality following supraceliac sealing. Supraceliac sealing was associated with lower odds of type-IA completion endoleaks, but higher odds of any complication including cardiac complications, lower extremity ischemia and acute kidney injury when compared with infraceliac sealing. The researchers concluded that supraceliac sealing was associated with lower risk of type IA endoleaks and similar mortality compared with sealing at an infraceliac level. The researchers advise that providers should be aware that supraceliac sealing was related with higher perioperative morbidity.
