Background and Objectives: Transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) is part of the daily practice most interventional radiologists worldwide. The ideal liquid embolic agent far from being identified. Non-adhesive agents (NALEA) harden outside to inside, resulting in deep penetration, known as “magma-like” progression, which permits a more distal with good control material. This multicenter retrospective cohort study aims assess efficacy, feasibility safety transcatheter ethylene-vinyl...

Abstract Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) is a relatively recent diagnostic technique increasingly being utilized in clinical practice. Until recently, there was lack of standardized reporting for CEM findings. However, this has changed with the publication supplement Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS). A comprehensive understanding essential further enhancing its role both screening managing patients breast malignancies. can also be beneficial problem-solving, improving...

Purpose: To report the results of endovascular treatment iliac and complex aortoiliac occlusive disease (AIOD) in a multicenter Italian registry. Materials Methods: A retrospective, multicenter, observational cohort study analyzed 713 patients (mean age 68±10 years; 539 men) with isolated lesions treated primary stenting between January 2015 December 2017. Indications for were claudication 406 (57%) critical limb ischemia 307 (43%). According to TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus II...

Background and Objectives: Roughly 10% of cancer patients experience an episode bleeding. The bleeding severity can range from occasional trivial bleeds to major treatment for the may vary, depending on clinical condition anatomical site, include various strategies, among which TAE is a cornerstone management. However, existing literature tumor hemorrhages inconsistent. objective this multicenter retrospective cohort study was evaluate effectiveness safety arterial embolization in with solid...

Hemostasis of the femoral arterial access site by manual compression or a vascular closure device is critical to safe completion any endovascular procedure. Previous investigations evaluated hemostatic efficacy at radial some chitosan-based pads. This study aims assess and safety new dressing, namely Axiostat®, in aiding patients undergoing treatments. Furthermore, outcomes were compared with evidence on alone devices. investigation two-center retrospective analysis 120 consecutive who had...

Purpose: To analyze the results of isolated left subclavian artery (LSA) revascularization during thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) using carotid-subclavian bypass (CSbp) or chimney grafts (CGs). Methods: A retrospective multicenter, observational study identified 73 patients (mean age 68±13 years, range 22–87; 56 men) with acute chronic lesions who underwent TEVAR LSA either CSbp (n=42) CGs (n=31) from January 2010 and February 2017. Primary endpoints were TEVAR-related mortality,...

Background and Objectives: Increasing attention is being paid to the coagulation disorders associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Bleeding accounts for 3-6% of COVID-19 patient deaths, often a forgotten part disease. The bleeding risk enhanced by several factors, including spontaneous heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, hyperfibrinolytic state, consumption thromboprophylaxis anticoagulants. This study aims assess efficacy safety TAE in management patients. Materials Methods: multicenter...
