Prospectively identifying patients whose renal function or blood pressure will improve after the correction of renal-artery stenosis has not been possible. We evaluated whether a high level resistance to flow in segmental arteries both kidneys (indicated by resistance-index values at least 80) can be used prospectively select appropriate for treatment.
To evaluate the role of spiral computed tomography (CT) in diagnosis renal arterial stenoses.In 22 patients with suspected renovascular hypertension, CT angiography arteries was compared digital subtraction (DSA). For each patient, peak transit time t (from intravenous injection to maximum enhancement abdominal aorta) determined a bolus 15 mL contrast medium. Spiral scanning started at level superior mesenteric artery delay + 5 seconds after start 100-150 medium.Spiral demonstrated multiple...
Background Aortic dissection with branch obstruction is associated high morbidity and mortality. Fenestration of the flap to relieve distal vessel ischemia at present largely performed surgically. The surgical mortality are high, because most patients poor candidates for anesthesia or surgery. Methods Results Nine percutaneous fenestrations (one additional stenting infrarenal true aortic lumen) were under local in seven dissection. presenting symptoms abdominal angina claudication. By...
Hepatic involvement in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is highly variable and may lead to severe clinical symptoms such as heart failure. This controlled, prospective study defined sonographic criteria for hepatic HHT. Color Doppler sonography pulsed were used 25 patients with HHT liver involvement, 20 without cirrhosis, disease. The diagnosis of manifestation was confirmed by computed tomography and/or angiography. Liver size, parenchymal changes the liver, vessel diameters,...
The 'frozen' elephant trunk technique allows for single-stage repair of combined aortic arch and descending aneurysms using a 'hybridprosthesis' with stented non-stented end. This report summarizes the operative- follow-up data (mean 14 months) this new treatment.Between 09/01 4/04, 22 patients (62+/-9 years; 9 female) different pathologies (15 dissections, 7 aneurysms) were operated on after approval from local institutional review board. end hybridprosthesis was deployed in aorta through...
Purpose: Sentinel lymph node (LN) dissection (sLND) using a magnetometer and superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) as tracer was successfully applied in prostate cancer (PCa). The feasibility of sentinel LN (SLN) visualization on MRI after intraprostatic SPION injection has been reported. In the present study, results preoperative identification SLNs outcome subsequent intraoperative magnetometer-guided sLND following were studied intermediate- high-risk PCa. Patients methods: A...
To investigate whether endovascular stent-grafts implanted during the early phase of an aortic endografting program have advantages over conventional surgical procedures for treatment infrarenal aneurysm (AAA).In first months program, 37 patients (36 men; mean age 67.9 +/- 7.1 years, range 55 to 86) underwent AAA repair with implantation a Vanguard (n = 17) or Talent 20) bifurcated stent-graft. Data collected perioperative period and in follow-up were compared retrospectively matched group...
Spiral CT in the form of angiography (CTA) provides a new method for investigation large vessels. 52 patients with suspected renovascular hypertension were examined by CTA and arterial DSA. The computer tomographic angiographic findings 124 renal arteries compared. Sensitivity demonstrating artery stenosis was 95%, relevant stenoses it actually reached 100%. Specificity 92%. Positive/negative prediction value 85% proved outstandingly good or excluding superior to other imaging methods...
Abstract Background: Endovascular stent‐graft placement is emerging as a novel treatment option for patients with diseases of the descending thoracic aorta. However, currently no consensus guidelines exist to direct uniformity in procedures well pre‐ and postprocedural patient management, unlike that management other cardiovascular disorder. Accordingly, aim present survey was assess variations aortic practice among different subspecialties Germany. Methods: An interdisciplinary...
Abstract Background Ovarian hormones exert direct and indirect influences on the brain; however, little is known about how these impact causal brain connectivity. Studying female at a single time point may be confounded by distinct hormone phases. Despite this, menstrual cycle often overlooked. The primary objective of this pilot study was to evaluate resting-state connectivity during early follicular mid-luteal phases corresponding low vs high estradiol progesterone, respectively. Methods...
Purpose: To evaluate the role of percutaneous transcatheter coil-occlusion in management uncontrollable postoperative hematuria due to iatrogenic arteriovenous (AV) fistula. Material and Methods: In 2 patients, AV fistulas were occluded with catheter-guided superselective coil embolization. Results: both cases, occlusion was successful. Only small parts (less than 10%) parenchyma had be sacrificed. No hypertension occurred. Conclusion: Percutaneous embolization is a useful alternative...
