Transvenous Greenfield filter insertion is a safe and efficient mechanical means of protection against recurrent pulmonary thromboembolism both in the infrarenal suprarenal positions. Long-term follow-up to 12 years has demonstrated consistently high patency rate 96%, which independent concomitant anticoagulant therapy. The incidence embolism patients with filters not changed over time, there been no significant migration prolonged periods observation.
Objective To define the relevance of treating renal artery aneurysms (RAAs) surgically. Summary Background Data Most prior definitions clinical, pathologic, and management features RAAs have evolved from anecdotal reports. Controversy surrounding this clinical entity continues. Methods A retrospective review was undertaken 168 patients (107 women, 61 men) with 252 encountered over 35 years at University Michigan Hospital. Aneurysms were solitary in 115 multiple 53 patients. Bilateral...

Purpose The need to study methods of thromboembolism prophylaxis in high-risk trauma patients is well established. purpose this was evaluate the feasibility a proposed design, including current prophylaxis, performance risk assessment profile scale, and use serial color-flow duplex studies detecting deep venous thrombosis (DVT). Methods Patients were enrolled into study, stratified as their ability receive anticoagulation randomized low-dose unfractionated heparin, low molecular weight...
Although recent studies suggest that physician age is inversely related to clinical performance in primary care, relationships between surgeon and patient outcomes have not been examined systematically.
Abstract Thrombosis and inflammation are closely related. However, the response of vein wall to venous thrombosis has been poorly documented. This study examines hypothesis that is associated with an inflammatory in wall. In a rat model inferior vena caval thrombosis, was temporally examined for by assessment histopathology, leukocyte morphometrics, cytokine levels. Animals were killed 1 hour 1, 3, 6 days after thrombus induction. Our findings demonstrated early (day 1) neutrophil...

Over a four year period in two institutions, 85 Kim-Ray Greenfield vena caval filters were inserted 76 patients who have been followed for minimum of 6 to 53 months. The most frequent indication placement was pulmonary embolism during anticoagulant therapy. Both femoral and jugular routes used transvenous insertion, fewer complications associated with the approach. Surgical mortality within weeks operation occurred three (4%), none from recurrent embolism. Late included thrombophlebitis 7%...

Objective Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a major problem in patients with multiple injuries. We present our experience early placement of prophylactic vena caval filters (VCFs). Design Prospective study group historical control. Materials and Methods From March 1993 to December 1993, VCFs were placed 40 consecutive three or more risk factors for PE had demographic, physiologic, venous thromboembolic prophylaxis, outcome data collected prospectively (VCF group). They compared 80 injured admitted...
To determine whether high-volume hospitals (HVHs) have lower in-hospital death rates after abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair compared with low-volume (LVHs).Select statewide studies shown that HVHs superior outcomes LVHs for AAA repair, but they may not be representative of the true volume-outcome relationship entire United States.Patients undergoing intact or ruptured AAAs in Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) 1996 and 1997 were included (n = 13,887) study. The NIS represents a 20%...
