1 Author's response to reviews Title: Endovascular treatment of huge saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm in a young Behcet patient: mid-term result Authors: Ramazan Kutlu (rkutlu@inonu.edu.tr) Riza Turkoz (rturkoz@yahoo.com) Ahmet Akbulut (ahmeta@inonu.edu.tr) Oner Gulcan (alara@ttnet.net.tr) Tamer Baysal (tbaysal@inonu.edu.tr) Version: 3 Date: 2 Mar 2002 PDF covering letter
2 Dear Editor, We made the following changes to our manuscript. Thank you for consideration of our manuscript. We look forward to hearing from you soon, Sincerely yours, Ramazan Kutlu, MD 1. Our department s phone and fax numbers are changed and the new numbers are given [Phone: (Extn: 5703), Fax: (Attn: Dr. Ramazan Kutlu)]. 2. Third author (Ahmet Akbulut, MD) has a new position in the Malatya State Hospital and his institution is changed. He has a new (ahmeta@inonu.edu.tr) and this was corrected. 3. Title of the manuscript is changed according to the reviewer s advice to ENDOVASCULAR TREATMENT OF HUGE SACCULAR ABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSM IN A YOUNG BEHCET PATIENT: MID-TERM RESULT. 4. Abstract was structured. 5. Third sentence of abstract is changed to A case of huge saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm in a young Behcet patient who was successfully treated with endovascular stent graft placement is reported, diagnostic and interventional procedures are discussed, and mid-term follow-up results are presented.. 6. A conclusions section was added ( Endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm complications of young Behcet patients who are not suitable for open surgery and need intervention could be an alternative treatment modality even without performing preprocedural angiography. ) 7. The last sentence of the Background section is deleted according to the advice of Prof Claude Juhan. 8. We have no competing interests and the sentence Competing interests: None declared was added. 9. The sentence According to our literature search this is the first successfully treated huge saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm in Behcet disease. in the abstract section is removed. 10. More specific new references (9 th reference [Blankensteijn JD. Mortality and morbidity rates after conventional abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Semin Interv Cardiol 2000: 5:7-13] and 10 th reference [Cruz CP, Drouilhet JC, Southern FN, Eidt JF, Barnes RW, Moursi MM. Abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Vasc Surg 2001: 35:335-44]) about the mortality rate of AAA open surgery are added. The sentence There are reports of mortality rates of between % for open surgery (9, 10). in discussion section of the version 1 is changed to Although there is disagreement in reported mortality rates for open surgery (9), there are reports of mortality rates of between 1.6 % (10) to 7,6 % (11, 12). 11. The meanings of DSA and CTA are given. 12. The heading Case Report is added between Introduction and Discussion. 13. The usage of and is revised.
3 14. Dr S Erpenbach commented in compulsory revisions section of his report as 1)p4 line 13: documentation of the measurements are very important, for that is what is new in Your preinterventional diagnostic procedures. What about Sup.Mes.Artery, patent? we think that our paragraph is sufficient enough to stress his concerns [ One of the crucial points of endovascular treatment of aneurysms is accurate and precise measurement of aneurysm. Although CT is highly effective, most of the vascular radiologists still would like to have preprocedural angiography. But in Behcet disease vessel wall vulnerability is extremely high and even minor lesions resulting from diagnostic procedures (e.g. intraarterial angiography etc.) could lead to the formation of aneurysms at the puncture site (13). Due to the fragility of the aneurysm inherent in Behcet patients and the size of aneurysm, we did not perform diagnostic angiography. All measurements based on CT images and 3D reconstructions helped us to better understand and characterize the neck, dimensions and relations of the aneurysm to other arteries. ] Also for the specific question about patency of Superior Mesenteric Artery, it was patent (Figure 5E). For the clarification, we changed the sentence All the measurements made by using abdominal CT and CTA images. in Case Report section of our manuscript to All the measurements made by using abdominal CT and CTA images that revealed favorable lengths and diameters for endovascular treatment. 15. Manufacturer of stent graft was added (Stenford Grouppe Valendons fa Nanterre, France). 16. The patient diagnosed as having AAA on July 12, Patient had some medical insurance problems that were solved in three weeks. The interval between order and arrival of the stent graft was 10 days. So the procedure was performed on August 10, Patient was hospitalized and closely observed between diagnosis and treatment period. We thought that this information would be redundant and thus we did not mentioned in the manuscript. But if it is necessary, we can add this information. 17. The material and manufacturer of Dacron graft (Hemashield, Meadox) is added. 18. Patient was discharged with steroid therapy and this information is added. 19. We added a new reference (13) and discussed why we did not perform preinterventional angiography. 20. Patient s name and surname were erased from the figures. New versions of figures were uploaded. 1 'Author details' form - Author list matches that on the manuscript 2 'Author details' form - each author has a different address 3 'Manuscript details' form - Title of manuscript correct matches that on the manuscript 4 'Manuscript details' form - Abstract matches that on the manuscript Title page of manuscript: **************************** 5 Please check the form of your manuscript title.
