Chronic mesenteric ischemia outcome analysis and predictors of endovascular failure
Open accessAbstract
Objective Outcomes of open revascularization (OR) and endovascular revascularization (ER) for chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) were analyzed to identify predictors of endovascular failure.Methods A retrospective study was performed of all consecutive patients with CMI (161 patients, 215 vessels) treated from 2008 to 2012. Demographics, comorbidities, clinical presentation, etiology, and treatment modalities were compared. Outcomes included technical success, restenosis requiring reintervention, complications, mortality, and hospital length of stay.Results There were 116 patients who were first treated with ER (72%) and 45 patients with OR (28%). Overall mortality was 6.8% (11/161). Among the ER patients, 27 developed restenosis and required OR (23%). Patients treated with ER were older (73 vs 66 years; P = .014), had similar comorbidities, and had higher rate of short lesions (≤2 cm) on preoperative angiograms (23% vs 47%; P = .004). Primary patency at 3 years was higher in the OR group compared with the ER group (91% vs 74%; P = .018). Long-term survival rates were higher in the ER group (95% vs 78%; P = .003). Hospital length of stay and intensive care unit length of stay were shorter in the ER group (<.001). Perioperative mortality (30-day) was not statistically significant between the groups (5.2% vs 11%; P = .165). A subgroup analysis was performed between the patients with successful ER and failure of ER requiring OR. Patients with failure of ER had significantly higher rates of aortic occlusive disease (86% vs 49%; P = .005) and long lesions ≥2 cm on angiography (57% vs 12%; P < .001) that were close to the mesenteric takeoff. Perioperative mortality was higher in the ER failure group (15% vs 2%; P = .009).Conclusions ER has similar perioperative mortality and shorter hospitalization but higher rate of restenosis requiring reintervention compared with OR. Patients with ER who required reintervention appear to have longer lesions as well as higher rates of aortic occlusive disease on preoperative angiography. Patients who crossed over from ER to OR had higher perioperative mortality than either primary open or endovascular patients. These findings may guide treatment selection in patients with CMI undergoing ER or OR.

Morbidity and perioperative mortality rates were acceptable, and were lower with an endovascular compared with an open approach.
“Morbidity and perioperative mortality rates were acceptable, and were lower with an endovascular compared with an open approach.”
Several studies reported acceptable technical success of endovascular re-intervention after both primary endovascular and open revascularisation.
“Several studies reported acceptable technical success of endovascular re-intervention after both primary endovascular and open revascularisation.”
Only arteriosclerotic occlusions were treated by ET, so the endovascular failure can be explained by the heavily calcified visceral aortas and mesenteric vessel orifices.
“In fact, only arteriosclerotic occlusions were treated by ET so that the endovascular failure can be explained by the heavily calcified visceral aortas and mesenteric vessel orifices [11, 23].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
