Lipedema: A Common Clinical Entity Rarely Diagnosed
Lipedema is an adipose disorder that was 1st described at the Mayo Clinic in 1940. Since then it has been a diagnosis largely lost to American physicians, and yet, it is readily recognized in most of Europe. This talk will educate attendees about Lipedema, its implications for vascular surgeons, and the distinction between lipedema, lymphedema, and obesity.

NESVS23. Depth Reduction Procedures for Deep Autogenous Fistulas: Superficialization Versus Lipectomy
The objective of this study was to safely and recurrently cannulate arteriovenous fistulas. In addition to adequate flow and vessel diameter, the fistula vein must be superficial. For obese patients, the vein can be elevated or superficialized, and more recently, simple open lipectomy has been described (avoiding any substantial vascular manipulation). We hypothesized that lipectomy offers durable, equivalent outcomes compared with traditional superficialization for fistulas.

NESVS1. Outcomes After Open and Endovascular Treatment of Infrainguinal Occlusive Disease in Morbidly Obese and Superobese Patients
Although the effect of body mass index on the treatment of infrainguinal peripheral arterial disease (PAD) has been analyzed, outcomes of patients on the high end of the spectrum of morbid obesity (MO; body mass index>40) and superobesity (SO) are unclear. Our goal was to analyze perioperative outcomes of infrainguinal PAD after lower extremity bypass (LEB) and peripheral vascular interventions (PVIs) in this population of patients.

Perioperative outcomes after lower extremity bypass and peripheral vascular interventions in patients with morbid obesity and superobesity
Although the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the treatment of infrainguinal peripheral artery disease has been reported, outcomes of patients on the upper end of the obesity spectrum, including morbid obesity (MO) and superobesity (SO), are unclear. Our goal was to analyze perioperative outcomes after lower extremity bypass (LEB) and peripheral vascular interventions (PVIs) in this population of patients.

A novel double clip-based vascular closure device in antegrade and retrograde femoral punctures: A single-center experience in peripheral non-cardiac procedures
CONCLUSIONS: The novel clip-based VCD proved to be effective with a low VCD related complication rate.PMID:33908308 | DOI:10.1177/11297298211012829

Autogenous Vascular Access in American Indians
An autogenous vascular access (AVF) is the preferred choice for hemodialysis access in most patients, with lower associated morbidity, mortality and costs as compared with AV grafts and particularly hemodialysis catheters1,2,3. Previous investigations have noted lower AVF success rates associated with various ethnicities and other factors such as diabetes, obesity and age4,5,6 . In addition, there is variation in the percentage of AVFs used for hemodialysis in different ethnic groups7.

Effectiveness of the MANTA Vascular Closure Device for Endovascular Aneurysm Repair in the Obese: a Prospective Pilot Audit
The MANTA Large Bore Closure Device (Teleflex, Beaconsfield, UK; herein called the MANTA device) is the first dedicated commercially available collagen plug based vascular closure device (VCD) that is used for “post-close” haemostasis of large bore arterial punctures. It is available in two iterations, a 14F and an 18F version, and can be used to close arterial defects of 10 – 25F. It is now used exhaustively for cardiac procedures such as transfemoral aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with detailed analyses of outcomes,1 but less so by endovascular operators for endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), whether it be abdo...

A systematic review of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with traumatic spinal cord injury
Conclusions: Patients with SCI are more likely to have cardiovascular risk factors and have cardiovascular disease compared to the normal population. Peripheral circulatory disorders are particularly common. Patients with SCI are now considered to be a new risk group for cardiovascular disease; however, large epidemiological studies are needed to verify in more detail the cardiovascular risk profile of this patient group.PMID:34852665 | DOI:10.1024/0301-1526/a000981

The effects of exercise on vascular markers and C-reactive protein among obese children and adolescents: An evidence-based review.
Authors: Salamt N, Muhajir M, Aminuddin A, Ugusman A Abstract Numerous studies have evaluated the effects of exercise training on obese children and adolescents. However, the impact of aerobic and/or resistance exercise alone, without any other interventions, on vascular markers and C-reactive protein (CRP) in obese children and adolescents is still not clear. We performed a literature search in Ovid Medline, PubMed, and SCOPUS databases to identify articles on the effects of exercise on vascular markers and CRP among obese children and adolescents, published between January 2009 and May 2019. Only full-text articl...
