BackgroundAmong asymptomatic patients with severe carotid artery stenosis but no recent stroke or transient cerebral ischaemia, either stenting (CAS) endarterectomy (CEA) can restore patency and reduce long-term risks. However, from national registry data, each option causes about 1% procedural risk of disabling death. Comparison their protective effects requires large-scale randomised evidence.MethodsACST-2 is an international multicentre trial CAS versus CEA among thought to require...
Structural alterations of aortic wall resulting from degradation matrix proteins by metalloproteinases (MMPs) characterize abdominal aneurysms (AAAs). No studies have compared circulating levels MMPs after endovascular graft (EVG) exclusion in comparison with open surgical repair (OSR) patients affected AAA.An angiography and CT scan were performed all at the time enrollment. A spiral was 6 months to detect presence endoleaks. MMP-3 MMP-9 measured before EVG (n=30) OSR (n=15) treatments 1,...

To assess the efficacy and safety of Outback device in patients with a chronic total occlusion (CTO) superficial femoral artery evaluate its impact on fluoroscopy procedural times.From October 2006 to March 2007, 52 affected by TASC II-D CTO were treated subintimal recanalization. Clinical indications for endovascular recanalization were: claudication, tissue loss, at rest leg pain critical limb ischemia. In 26 manual reentry technique was used OUTBACK(®) LTD Re-Entry Catheter used. Total...
Introduction: Aim of the study is to assess occurrence early stage coagulopathy and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) in patients with mild moderate respiratory distress secondary SARS-CoV-2 infection. Materials methods: Data hospitalized from 18 March 2020 20 April were retrospectively reviewed. Two scores for screening (SIC non-overt DIC scores) calculated. The thrombotic complication, death, worsening function requiring non-invasive ventilation (NIV) or admission ICU recorded,...
The assessment of carotid plaque vulnerability is a relevant clinical information that can help prevent adverse cerebrovascular events. To this aim, in work we study the ability different non-invasive methods for assessing patients undergoing endarterectomy (CEA). Histological examinations patients' samples were conducted after CEA while ultrasound (US) and computed tomography angiography (CTA) acquisitions performed preoperatively. US acquisition included point shear wave elastography...
Background: Despite screening recommendations, many abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are incidentally imaged during various imaging studies but frequently missed, especially when the procedure is not specifically targeted to aorta. The aims of this study were conduct a retrospective analysis assess incidence AAAs as incidental findings on lumbar spine magnetic resonance (MRI) and evaluate detection rate these reported by radiologists. Methods: After ethics committee approval, included...
High-grade gliomas (HGGs) and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are characterized by a heterogeneous aggressive population of tissue-infiltrating cells that promote both destructive tissue remodeling aberrant vascularization the brain. The formation defective permeable blood vessels microchannels prevent efficient vascular delivery pharmacological agents to tumor significant reason why therapeutic chemotherapy immunotherapy intervention primarily ineffective.

Purpose:To compare self-expanding and balloon-expandable stent-grafts in terms of aortic neck dilatation endograft migration. Method:Two-hundred forty-two patients (178 men; mean age 68 years, range 56–91) underwent elective endovascular repair abdominal aneurysm. Two-hundred (115 Excluder, 48 Endologix, 23 Vanguard, 10 Anaconda, 4 Talent) 42 (Lifepath) endografts were used. All contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) prior to the intervention, at 1, 3, 6 months after procedure, annually...
