Guidelines are fundamental in addressing everyday clinical indications and reporting the current evidence-based data of related scientific investigations. At same time, a spatial temporal issue can limit their value. Indeed, variability recommendations be found both among nation different societies nations/continents. On other side, Garcia already published 2014 showing how, after three years average, one out five gets outdated (Martinez LM, Sanabria AJ, Alvarez E, et al. The validity from...
Objective The aim was to retrieve and analyse the serious adverse events of venous occlusion systems used in cyanoacrylate adhesive closure (CAC) submitted regulatory agencies. Methods Total Product Life Cycle (TPLC) database US Food Drug Administration (FDA), Database Adverse Event Notifications (DAEN) Australian Therapeutic Goods (TGA), Yellow Card UK Medicines Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) were reviewed. Three Freedom Information (FOI) requests had be MHRA obtain data....
Background Catheter directed sclerotherapy (CDS) involves the use of a long catheter to deliver sclerosing agent into target vessel (saphenous trunks or venous malformations) under ultrasound guidance. Aims and Methods This article reviews history, current techniques devices evidence as it relates these procedures. Results CDS was developed increase safety efficacy ultrasound-guided (UGS). With advent foam sclerosants tumescent anaesthesia, procedure has enjoyed higher primary success rate....
Background Cyanoacrylate adhesive closure is a technically simple alternative to endothermal ablation of peripheral veins. N-butyl cyanoacrylate delivered via catheters or by percutaneous injection resulting in occlusion target The local tissue reaction the systemic immune response that may follow have not been characterised. Aim To characterise late glue injected vessels. Methods Biopsies were obtained from two patients. In patient one, distal tributaries great saphenous vein with...
Objective To characterise the microscopic structure of thrombus induced by direct effect sclerosants (sclerothrombus) compared with that post-sclerotherapy retained coagulum (trapped blood; sclerocoagulum) and in acute superficial venous thrombosis (SVT). Methods Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) fluorescence were used to assess structural architecture samples. Sclerothrombus samples generated vitro following incubation whole blood or platelet-rich plasma detergent sodium tetradecyl...
We report three cases of stroke in association with peripheral venous interventions that each included foam ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy (UGS). All female patients experienced a right middle cerebral artery (MCA) causing dysphasia and left hemiparesis. A patent foramen ovale was found patient. The first incident occurred two days after UGS to treat small tributaries great saphenous vein (GSV). Paradoxical clot embolism presumed this case where concurrent deep thrombosis non-occlusive...
SUMMARY A 24‐year‐old woman had a 9‐week history of second to third daily urticaria that began after an episode contact topical bufexamac. She was found have underlying gastrointestinal infection with Blastocystis hominis . This thought be clinically relevant as she mild chronic diarrhoea. After treatment the hominis, her ceased. could indicate importance performing stool microscopy and culture on all patients unknown aetiology. The relationship intestinal parasites possibility non‐steroidal...
To investigate the effectiveness of methods proposed to prevent venous gas embolism during foam sclerotherapy.Transthoracic echocardiography was performed concurrent with ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy (UGS) great or small saphenous veins. A volume 2.5 mL 3% sodium tetradecyl sulphate prepared following Tessari method and injected slowly 5-10 cm away from junctions. The procedure repeated modifications including using a 5 µm filter generate microfoam, carbon dioxide as foaming gas, leg...
