AbstractIntravascular or intracardiac stenosis occurs in various congenital heart diseases or after surgical repair. Although balloon angioplasty is the first option for relieving stenosis, frequently restenosis occurs because of elastic recoil or kingking component. The use of a self-expandable stent and covered stent in congenital heart disease has been reported for selected cases. In general, they have been performed for coarctation of the aorta or aortic aneurysm. We now report successful implantation of a self-expandable stent with a self-expandable covered stent graft in a case of lateral tunnel dehiscence with stenosis after a Fontan operation.

Covered Stent Graft

Since Richter’s description in the literature in 1989 of the first procedure on human patients, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has been worldwide considered as a noninvasive technique to manage portal hypertension complications. TIPS succeeds in lowering the hepatic sinusoidal pressure and in increasing the circulatory flow, thus reducing sodium retention, ascites recurrence, and variceal bleeding. Required several revisions of the shunt TIPS can be performed in case of different conditions such as hepatorenal syndrome, hepatichydrothorax, portal vein thrombosis, and Budd-Chiari syndrome. Most of the previous studies on TIPS procedure were based on the use of bare stents and most patients chose TIPS 2-3 years after traditional treatment, thus making TIPS appear to be not superior to endoscopy in survival rates. Bare stents were associated with higher incidence of shunt failure and consequently patients required several revisions during the follow-up. With the introduction of a dedicated e-PTFE covered stent-graft, these problems were completely solved, No more reinterventions are required with a tremendous improvement of patient’s quality of life. One of the main drawbacks of the use of e-PTFE covered stent-graft is higher incidence of hepatic encephalopathy. In those cases refractory to the conventional medical therapy, a shunt reduction must be performed.

Abstract OBJECTIVE The use of a covered stent-graft to repair disruptions of the cervical carotid and vertebral arteries is described. This device maintains vessel patency while effectively excluding pseudoaneurysms, arteriovenous fistulae, and other breaches in the integrity of the arterial wall. METHODS Patient 1 bled from a large rent in the proximal common carotid artery as a result of tumor invasion. Patient 2 developed a vertebral arteriovenous fistula after a stab injury to the neck. Patient 3 developed cerebral infarction and an enlarging pseudoaneurysm of the internal carotid artery, also after a stab wound to the neck. RESULTS All three patients were treated with the Wallgraft endoprosthesis (Boston Scientific, Watertown, MA). In each case, the vessel wall defect was repaired while antegrade flow through the artery was preserved or restored. No neurological complications occurred as a result of stent-graft deployment. CONCLUSION Covered stent-grafts offer an alternative to endovascular occlusion of the parent vessel, thereby expanding the therapeutic options for patients with extracranial cerebrovascular disease. These three cases highlight the usefulness and versatility of these devices for endoluminal reconstruction of the brachiocephalic vasculature.
