Hepatic artery (HA) pseudoaneurysm rupture is a rare and potentially lethal pathology. We present the case of celiac dissection complicated by an HA that was treated successfully with endovascular stenting. The patient's postoperative course uncomplicated, he further evaluated for underlying connective tissue disorder. There no standard treatment ruptured pseudoaneurysm, although transarterial embolization most frequently reported. This report demonstrates self-expanding stent grafts are...
ObjectiveEndothermal heat-induced thrombosis (EHIT) is a potential complication of radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Data on effective prophylaxis EHIT limited. In 2018, high-volume single institution implemented strategies to decrease the incidence EHIT, including peri-procedural prophylactic dose low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) patients with great saphenous vein (GSV) diameter ≥8mm or sapheno-femoral junction (SFJ) ≥10mm, and limiting treatment one per procedure. The size threshold was...
Vascular surgeons have one of the highest rates burnout among surgical specialties. This is often attributed to high patient acuity and a clinical workload. There been few reports practical steps improve this burden. Acute care service (ACS) models are potential solution that has used general trauma surgeons. work studies impact vascular ACS model on faculty resident work-life satisfaction. retrospective analysis prospectively collected Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education...
Within the cardiology literature, coronary calcium scores have been established as an easily automated way to use cross-sectional imaging predict cardiovascular events and death. No analog exists within vascular surgical literature. Using on patients undergoing transcarotid arterial revascularization (TCAR), we used a previously published standardized, semiautomated technique obtain atherosclerotic plaque quantification. We examined impact of carotid volume percent postoperative...
Introduction: Inflammation is a hallmark of aneurysmal disease, but the etiology for inflammation unknown. Previously, bacteria and bacterial nucleic acid sequences have been identified within abdominal aortic aneurysm tissue. However, only one study has taken an un-targeted approach to assess diversity species no surveyed across various environments in patients with disease. Research Question: Does distribution differ between by disease status disease? Methods: Whole blood, acute (luminal)...
Pressure-normalized aortic principal wall strain (ep+/pp, %/mmHg) is a biomechanical parameter for abdominal aneurysm (AAA) stability correlated with growth rate. We hypothesized that ep+/pp decreases as AAAs degenerate. This study aimed to characterize change over time using ultrasound elastography (USE). Axial images of patient were collected at two consecutive clinic visits. The USE algorithm applied finite element mesh the point maximum diameter. A custom image-registration protocol...
