Upper Extremity Occlusive Disease

P. Berg; S. Schmitz; V. Lens; H. Farghadani

Unlike the lower extremity, the upper extremity is less likely to be affected with occlusive disease (10%) [17]. Di- agnosis and treatment of upper limb occlusive disease is often difficult for the following reasons:

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA)

David Bergqvist; Martin Björck; Anders Wanhainen

Although problems and complications of aneurysm management have been recognized for nearly 4000 years, abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) was inaccessible to treatment until, in 1817, Sir Astley Cooper (1768–1841) made the first attempt to ligate the infrarenal aorta in a man with a leaking iliac aneurysm. The patient, however, succumbed 40 h after the operation.

Treatment Options for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA)

David Bergqvist; Martin Björck; Christer Ljungman; Rickard Nyman; Anders Wanhainen

This chapter will focus on how to deal with AAA from a practical point of view and also give hints on how to cor- rect some of the complications that may occur. The two principal options to treat AAA are by: (1) open repair or (2) endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Both can be used irrespective of whether the AAA is ruptured or treat- ed electively, although the experience on EVAR in the case of rupture so far is limited. A third option, laparoscopic repair, can still be considered as non-established, and its role remains to be seen. It will not be further discussed in this chapter. Today there are no pharmacological means to treat AAA or reduce expansions, although α-blockade and antibiotics have been tried. A better understanding of the cause of AAA may, however, lead to other treatment options in the future.
