Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis is among the most common procedures performed in United States. However, consensus lacking regarding optimal preoperative imaging, duplex ultrasound criteria, and ultimately, threshold surgery. We sought to characterize national variation surgery CEA.The Society Vascular Surgery Quality Initiative (VQI) database was used identify all CEA between 2003 2014. VQI currently captures 100% of at >300 centers by >2000 physicians...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the use emergency thoracotomy in our institution an effort determine whether procedure is both beneficial and cost effective blunt and/or penetrating trauma. We conducted a retrospective review charts coroner's reports. Our setting Level I trauma center tertiary-care facility. examined cases patients presenting over 2-year period. Of 2490 who presented department period 41 underwent early thoracotomy. Twelve these were excluded from because their...
Age less than 55 years, normal Glasgow Coma Score (GCS), and absence of hypotension are traditional criteria for the selection adult patients with blunt splenic trauma observation. The objective this study is to challenge these criteria. Two hundred twelve who presented injury between 1992 1997 were identified from Trauma Registry at our Level I center. divided into three groups: 100 (47%) observed, 108 (51%) underwent immediate splenorrhaphy or splenectomy, 4 (2%) failed groups compared by...

Designed provide earlier exposure Initiative (VQI), it is individuals completing residencies or fellowships with interest disease-focused specialties. VQI supports efforts help members utilize data enhance patient safety improve of care...
Type IIIB endoleaks resulting from endograft fabric tear are an uncommon but serious late complication of endovascular aortic aneurysm repair. The Strata used in the earlier generation AFX (updated to Duraply October 2014) has been associated with increased frequency these events. Herein we report on two patients exhibiting delayed type after device insertion treat abdominal and discuss optimal relining techniques.
