Brief Summary
The purpose of the registry is to evaluate the peri-operative, short-, and mid- outcomes of endovascular treatment of thoracoabdominal aneurysms with multibranched endografts via total transfemoral approach for visceral vessels cannulation using steerable sheaths

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
technical success
successful bridging stent graft deployment of all vessels, with aneurysm exclusion, without any signs of type I or type III endoleak, and with no evidence of stenosis/occlusion and mating stent dislocation/kinking at intraoperative completion angiography.
30 days
branch instability
freedom from any branch related complications and/or required reinterventions
30 days
clinical success
absence of death, type I/III endoleak, graft infection/thrombosis, aneurysm expansion and/or rupture, conversion to open repair, or new treatment-related thoracoabdominal pathologies
30 days
Study Arms (1)
Steerable introducers
Interventions
endografts via total transfemoral approach for visceral vessels cannulation
Eligibility Criteria
The Registry will include approximately 100 patients treated with BEVAR from January 2018 to January 2022 for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms with total transfemoral procedures
You may qualify if:
- patient adult ( ≥18 years) of either sex,
- patients who underwent a complex aortic procedure requiring a branched endograft via total transfemoral approach in the centers involved in the TORCH2 Registry
You may not qualify if:
- patients who did not receive treatment via total transfemoral approach,
- patient with bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy,
- patients with active systemic or cutaneous infection or inflammation,
- patients who are pregnant or lactating,
- patient younger than 18 years of age.
- Absence of at least one imaging follow-up within the first post-operative year
