PG - 1135-1142 LID - S1051-0443(23)00205-1 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.jvir.2023.03.002 [doi] AB - PURPOSE: To analyze the risk factors for access-related adverse events (AEs) of the preclose technique in thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ninety-one patients with Stanford type B aortic dissection who underwent the preclose technique in TEVAR between January 2013 and December 2021 were included. According to the occurrence of access-related AEs, the patients were divided into 2 groups: those with AE and those without AE. Age, sex, combined diseases, body mass index, skin depth, femoral artery diameter, access calcification, iliofemoral artery tortuosity, and sheath size were recorded for risk factor analysis. The sheath-to-femoral artery ratio (SFAR), the ratio of the femoral artery inner diameter (in millimeters) to the sheath's outer diameter (in millimeters), was also included in the analysis. RESULTS: SFAR was identified as an independent risk factor for AEs using multivariable logistic analysis (odds ratio, 251.748; 95% CI, 7.004-9,048.534; P = .002). The cutoff value of SFAR was 0.85 and was related to a higher incidence of access-related AEs (5.2% vs 33.3%, P = .001), especially to a higher stenosis rate (0.0% vs 21.2%, P = .001). CONCLUSIONS: SFAR is an independent risk factor for access-related AEs of preclose in TEVAR with a cutoff value of 0.85. SFAR could be a new criterion for preoperative access evaluation in high-risk patients that may allow the detection and treatment of access-related AEs at the early stage.
