Influence of sex on expansion rate of abdominal aortic aneurysms

British journal of surgery (2007)

Reza Mofidi V.J. Goldie J.A. Kelman A. Raymond W. Dawson J A Murie

The UK Small Aneurysm Trial suggested that female sex is an independent risk factor for rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). This study assessed the effect of sex on the growth rate of AAA.Between January 1985 and August 2005 all patients who were referred to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh with an AAA who were not considered for early aneurysm repair were assessed by serial abdominal ultrasonography. Maximum anteroposterior and transverse diameters of the AAAs were measured.A total of 1255 patients (824 men and 431 women) were followed up for a median of 30 (range 6-185) months. A median of six examinations (range 2-37) was performed for each patient. Median diameter on initial examination was 41 (range 25-83) mm. Median growth rate overall was 2.79 (range - 4.80-37.02) mm per year. Median growth rate of AAA was significantly greater in women than men (3.67 (range - 1.2-37.02) versus 2.03 (range - 4.80-21.00) mm per year; P < 0.01). Weighted linear regression analysis revealed that large initial anteroposterior AAA diameter and female sex were significant predictors of faster aneurysm growth rate (P < 0.001 and P = 0.006 respectively).The growth rate of AAA was significantly greater in women than in men. This may have implications for the frequency of follow-up and timing of repair of AAA in women.

Data mining and associated analytical tools as decision aids for healthcare practitioners in vascular surgery

Reza Mofidi

Vascular surgery is an increasingly data rich speciality. Planning treatment and assessing outcomes are highly dependent on objective assessment of number of imaging modalities including duplex ultrasound, CT scans and angiograms which are almost exclusively digitally created stored and accessed. Developments such as the national vascular registry mean that treatment outcomes are recorded scrutinised electronically. The widespread availability of data which is collected electronically and stored for future clinical use has created the opportunity to examine the efficacy of investigations and treatments in a way which has hitherto not been possible. In addition, new computational methods for data analysis have provided the opportunity for the clinicians and researchers to utilise this data to address pertinent clinical questions.

An Unusual Cause of Recurrent Pulmonary Emboli

EJVES Extra (2009)

Jaime T Lee Young Reza Mofidi Alison Howd Gareth Griffiths

The authors report a 51-year-old female primary care physician who attended the emergency medical department with pleuritic chest pain, shortness of breath and associated tachycardia. She had 6 weeks previously been admitted and treated for similar features with the diagnosis of pulmonary emboli made from a positive ventilation–perfusion scan. CT scanning confirmed the diagnosis of multiple bilateral pulmonary emboli but no abdominal or pelvic pathology and without evidence of deep venous thrombosis. Further clinical assessment found generalised hyperflexibility and swelling of the left popliteal region. Duplex ultrasonography followed by venography confirmed a 5-cm unilateral saccular aneurysm of the above knee popliteal vein containing central thrombus. A temporary IVC filter (Cook, Tulip) was placed and primary aneurysmectomy was performed through a posterior approach. Popliteal venous aneurysms are rare but can present at any age and are associated with wall weakness from many causes. Pulmonary embolism is the most frequent presentation and is not dependant on visualized clot on imaging. As anticoagulation may be ineffective in preventing pulmonary embolism it is recommended all patients should undergo surgical repair.
