Peak wall stress measurement in elective and acute abdominal aortic aneurysms (2007)
Journal Article
Heng, M. S., Fagan, M. J., Collier, J. W., Desai, G., McCollum, P. T., & Chetter, I. C. (2008). Peak wall stress measurement in elective and acute abdominal aortic aneurysms. Journal of vascular surgery, 47(1), 17-22. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvs.2007.09.002

Background: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture occurs when wall stress exceeds wall strength. Engineering principles suggest that aneurysm diameter is only one aspect of its geometry that influences wall stress. Finite element analysis considers...

Cutaneous hyperpigmentation after endovenous laser therapy: a case report and literature review (2007)
Journal Article
Mekako, A., & Chetter, I. (2007). Cutaneous hyperpigmentation after endovenous laser therapy: a case report and literature review. Annals of vascular surgery, 21(5), 637-639. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.avsg.2007.03.013

Endovenous laser therapy (EVLT) for the treatment of varicose veins has been shown to be effective and relatively safe. Reported complications are few and transient. Whereas it is not uncommon to have cutaneous hyperpigmentation following treatment m...

Plasma tissue factor is a predictor for restenosis after femoropopliteal angioplasty (2007)
Journal Article
Ray, B., Chetter, I. C., Lee, H. L. D., Ettelaie, C., & McCollum, P. T. (2007). Plasma tissue factor is a predictor for restenosis after femoropopliteal angioplasty. British journal of surgery, 94(9), 1092-1095. https://doi.org/10.1002/bjs.5759

Background:In vitro studies suggest an association between raised levels of tissue factor and restenosis after coronary percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). This prospective, controlled study examined the association between plasma tissue fac... Read More about Plasma tissue factor is a predictor for restenosis after femoropopliteal angioplasty.

Attitudes to research in surgical training (Winner) (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Coughlin, P. A., & Chetter, I. Attitudes to research in surgical training (Winner)

Cystic lesions of the pancreas (CLP) are increasingly being recognised due to the wide-spread use of cross-sectional imaging. The vast majority although asymptomatic is associated with malignant potential and proves to be a diagnostic challenge. Ther... Read More about Attitudes to research in surgical training (Winner).
