PURPOSE: To compare the clinical efficacy and treatment costs of plastic versus metal biliary stents. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a randomized trial, 101 patients with malignant common bile duct obstruction underwent transhepatic stent implantation were followed up until death. Patients stratified into risk nonrisk groups. Forty-nine received 12-F stents, 52 expandable Plastic endoprostheses placed in two-step procedure; stent, single procedure. Kaplan-Meier analyses used to patient survival...
Development of the aorta takes place during third week gestation. It is a complex process that can lead to variety congenital variants and pathological anomalies. In diagnostic interventional radiology, knowledge aortic abnormalities variant branching sequence crucially important. This article gives systematic overview anatomical variability aorta.
Endoluminal treatment of infrapopliteal artery lesions is a matter controversy. Bioabsorbable stents are discussed as means to combine mechanical prevention vessel recoil with the advantages long-term perspectives. The possibility not having permanent metallic implant could permit occurrence positive remodeling lumen enlargement compensate for development new lesions. present study was designed investigate safety absorbable metal (AMSs) in arteries based on 1- and 6-month clinical follow-up...
A clear patency benefit of a drug-eluting stent (DES) over bare metal stents (BMSs) for treating peripheral artery disease the femoropopliteal segment has not been definitively demonstrated. The EMINENT study (Trial Comparing Eluvia Versus Bare Metal Stent in Treatment Superficial Femoral and/or Proximal Popliteal Artery) was designed to evaluate DES (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA), polymer-coated paclitaxel-eluting stent, compared with BMSs treatment lesions.EMINENT is prospective,...
Expandable metal endoprostheses were implanted transhepatically in 61 patients with obstructive jaundice. Fifty-three had malignant and eight benign obstructions. Because of the small diameter compressed stent (7 F), primary implantation without a previous catheter drainage was preferred. Postprocedural complications occurred three (5%) (biliary pleuritis, peritonitis, hepatic artery aneurysm). The 30-day mortality rate 8.2%. Reocclusions observed six obstructions (11%) (observation period,...
Endoluminal reconstruction with flow-diverting stents represents a widely accepted technique for the treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms. This European registry study analyzed initial experience 15 neurovascular centers Flow-Redirection Intraluminal Device (FRED) system.Consecutive patients aneurysms treated FRED between February 2012 and March 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Complications adverse events, transient permanent morbidity, mortality, occlusion rates evaluated.During...

Histologic analysis was performed of bile duct tissue from 15 patients who underwent treatment for malignant obstructive jaundice with a self-expandable stent. Stents were in place 5 days to 21 months. Malignancies included adenocarcinoma the pancreas or gallbladder cholangiocellular, hepatocellular, gastric carcinoma. blocked by sludge two cases and tumor overgrowth others. Microscopic evaluation showed that stent placement caused complete denudation mucosa mild submucosal inflammation...
Purpose: To report the consequences of endoluminal deployment stent-grafts in thoracic aorta with intentional occlusion left subclavian artery. Case Reports: Three patients an aortic type-B dissection and 1 a aneurysm were treated endoluminally Talent implanted over ostium artery without prior surgical subclavian-carotid transposition. The primary intimal tears sealed degenerative excluded; blood pressure arm was significantly diminished immediately after stent-graft released, but adequate...
Purpose: To report a case of endovascular descending thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) repair in which delayed-onset paraplegia was reversed using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage. Methods and Results: A 74-year-old patient with 6.0-cm TAA underwent stent-graft that involved overlapping placement 3 Talent devices to cover the 31-cm-long defect. Twelve hours later, neurological deficit occurred manifesting as left leg paralysis paresis on right. After urgent intrathecal catheter drainage for...
Abstract Purpose: The purpose is to report our experience and revise previously published results in endovascular repair of short-necked thoracic aortic aneurysms or type B dissections, which the left subclavian artery (LSA) was occluded by stent graft intentionally. Methods: Seven patients with an dissection three who had a aneurysm were treated endovascularly grafts. In all ostium LSA graft, only two primary, prophylactic revascularization performed transposition common carotid (LCA). Two...
To evaluate transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placements and secondary interventions.Thirty venograms were obtained in 21 patients with TIPS placement at 6-month intervals or if Doppler ultrasound showed an abnormality.Abnormalities the shown 24 (80%). Eight occlusions (two early, five late, one repeat) 16 stenoses (nine hepatic vein, six vein stent, stent only) seen. Two abnormalities experienced recurrent bleeding. All others had no signs of portal hypertension. Occluded...
