CX Aortic Live 2022

A live-case–driven meeting focused exclusively on aortic disease. CX Aortic Live 2022 showcases contemporary open, endovascular, and hybrid strategies across thoracic, abdominal, and aorto-iliac pathology, translating real-time procedural insights into everyday practice.

What You Will Learn

• Patient selection and planning for EVAR/TEVAR, complex (fenestrated/branched) solutions, and hybrid repairs

• Imaging-led decision making: CTA/MRA planning, center-line measurements, device sizing, and seal-zone optimization

• Access management, wire/catheter tactics, and adjuncts for difficult anatomy (hostile neck, tortuosity, calcification)

• Prevention and management of complications: endoleaks, rupture, retrograde dissection, spinal cord ischemia, renal/visceral ischemia

• Surveillance protocols, reintervention thresholds, and durability considerations

Event Details

• Format: Live cases with expert commentary, “how-I-do-it” talks, panel debates, and audience Q&A

• Structure: Thematic blocks (thoracic, abdominal, complex, complications, follow-up) with practical take-home checklists

• Access: Designed for immediate implementation in both academic and community centers

Who Should Attend
Vascular and endovascular surgeons, interventional radiologists/cardiologists, aortic program leads, imaging specialists, nurses/APPs, cath/OR staff, and trainees seeking concentrated, case-based aortic education.

Why Attend

• Watch high-stakes procedures performed by expert teams and learn step-by-step tactics

• Convert cutting-edge device and imaging advances into reproducible workflows

• Bring back protocols that improve safety, efficiency, and long-term outcomes in aortic care

+ Topics

*Note: these are continuous video recordings during the conference, they include individual lectures mentioned in the Detail section below

• TEVAR: zone landing strategies, arch work, left subclavian management, dissection and aneurysm care

• EVAR: neck challenges, iliac branch solutions, rupture and mycotic aneurysm approaches

• Complex aortic repair: FEVAR/BEVAR planning, alignment techniques, bridging stents, bailout maneuvers

• Access & adjuncts: percutaneous vs. surgical access, large-bore closure, embolization strategies

• Complications & QI: endoleak classification/management, SCI prevention, renal protection, radiation/contrast safety

• Follow-up: imaging surveillance, sac behavior, endograft durability, reintervention algorithms
