Abstract Background: Embolization to multiple arterial beds associated with primary aortic mural thrombus (PAMT) could result in high morbidity and mortality. There are no recommendations dictate the best management. This study aims describe our experience managing this rare disease. Methods: A retrospective review of all patients affected by PAMT treated at institution between January 2015 December 2021 was performed. Recorded data included demographics, prothrombotic risk factors, imaging...
Venous aneurysms are rare, so their natural history is not fully understood. Indications for treatment often determined by the location and size of aneurysm; however, considering scarcity data, there no specific recommendations. Surgery mainstay venous aneurysm treatment, but some authors reported successful endovascular treatment. We intend to describe our experience with this type rare disorder.A post hoc observational study a prospectively maintained registry including consecutive...
Hemodialysis access-induced distal ischemia consists of symptomatic extremity malperfusion after vascular access creation. It is usually caused by discordant resistance, with arteriovenous shunting a high blood volume from arterial into venous system and subsequent hand hypoperfusion. Less often, hemodialysis stenosis. In these cases, frequently has normal/low flow, radial pulse absent not recoverable digital compression, diabetes often present, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty can be...
Fractures affecting the proximal fifth metatarsal constitute 25% of all fractures, being particularly prevalent in sports due to stress-related incidents. Recognizing fracture patterns and implementing precise management are pivotal mitigate potential complications, given proclivity for suboptimal bone healing, high incidence nonunions (up 4% zone 2/3 fractures). Various methods graft collection application have been outlined, ranging from inlay grafts straightforward at nonunion site....
Motivation: Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura patients suffer from high risk of cognitive related complications post-remission that can decrease quality-of-life and in some cases death. Goal(s): We investigate a new treatment drug Caplacizumab to determine whether it reduce neurocognitive burden. Approach: use quantitative MRI CT-perfusion have received not. CT data look at variety different metrics brain health. Results: Preliminary results indicate better blood barrier recovery group,...
Objectives Target vessel endoleaks are one of the most common causes revision procedures after a fenestrated or branched endovascular aneurysm repair. Usually, redo stenting is an effective therapy, however, not always feasible. We present case hybrid treatment for type IIIb endoleak using renal autotransplantation technique. Methods A 60-year-old man with thoracoabdominal aortic has been treated custom-made endoprosthesis. Occlusion bridging stent to right artery total infarction kidney was...
There are two main categories of surgical management for lateral TMT joints arthritis: fusion and motion preserving surgeries, which include resection arthroplasty, tendon interpositional arthroplasty ceramic arthroplasty. This article reports the first case interposition 5th joint with Dx Reinforcement Matrix®, a porcine dermal extracellular matrix.We present 22-year-old male who suffered motorcycle accident caused closed fractures 2nd, 3rd 4th metatarsal diaphysis, an articular fracture...
We present the case of a male patient on hemodialysis with ruptured pseudoaneurysm in brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (AVF) and edema pain right arm attended to emergency department. An ultrasonographic scan identified hemorrhagic infiltration muscular tissues. performed percutaneous ultrasound-guided thrombin injection an angioplasty balloon inflated lumen AVF achieving thrombosis. After 6 months follow-up, patient's access remains functional. Percutaneous assisted by may be good...
