Purpose: To report the 1-year angiographic and clinical outcome from a prospective single-center study investigating infrapopliteal application of sirolimus-eluting versus bare metal stents in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) who underwent below-the-knee endovascular revascularization. Methods: Stenting was performed as bailout procedure for suboptimal angioplasty results (flow-limiting dissection, elastic recoil, or postangioplasty residual stenosis >30%). In first 29 patients,...
To investigate distal embolism during endovascular procedures of the infra-aortic arteries by utilizing a commercial filter basket and unveil any correlation between baseline clinical procedural variables histopathological findings collected particles.In prospective study, 48 patients (37 men; mean age 70.8+/-7.8 years, range 50- 83) underwent endoluminal therapy lesions (stenosis >75% or occlusion; lesion length 52.2+/-38.0 mm) with standard procedures. A nitinol (n=50) was employed for...
To report the long-term outcomes of a single-center prospective study investigating primary placement everolimus-eluting metal stents for recanalization long infrapopliteal lesions compared to matched historical control group treated with plain balloon angioplasty and provisional bare in bailout manner.The included 81 patients (63 men; mean age 71 years, range 45-85) suffering from critical limb ischemia (CLI) angiographically proven long-segment (at least 1 lesion >4.5 cm) de novo artery...
To investigate the incidence, anatomical location, and clinical impact of fractures and/or compression infrapopliteal balloon-expandable metal stents implanted for critical limb ischemia (CLI) treatment.This prospective study included 63 CLI patients (45 men; mean age 71.3+/-9.5 years) who had been treated with angioplasty stent placement 191 lesions in 84 limbs. In all, 369 (296 stainless steel 73 cobalt-chromium alloy) were implanted; 239 placed overlapping tandem lesions. Mean length...
Profound alterations in immune responses associated with uraemia and exacerbated by dialysis increase the risk of developing active tuberculosis (TB) chronic haemodialysis patients (HDPs). In current study, was determined impact various factors on TB development. Our aim to identify which HDPs need anti-TB preventive therapy. Prospective study 272 admitted, through a 36-month period, our institutions. Specific Relative Risk (RR) for estimated, considering age matched subjects from general...
Abstract Background Both infrapopliteal (IP) bypass surgery and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty have been shown to be effective in patients with critical limb ischaemia (CLI). The most appropriate method of revascularization has yet established, as no randomized trials reported. aim this study was compare the outcomes similar characteristics treated using either method. Methods Consecutive undergoing IP for CLI (Rutherford 4–6) at a single institution were compared following propensity...
The adequate and repeatable performance of the image display system is a key element information technology platforms in modern radiology department. However, despite wide availability high-end computing advanced color gray-scale monitors, quality properties final displayed medical may often be inadequate for diagnostic purposes if displays are not configured maintained properly. In this article-an expanded version Radiological Society North America educational module "Image Display"-the...
Familial microscopic hematuria (FMH) is associated with a genetically heterogeneous group of conditions including the collagen-IV nephropathies, heritable C3/CFHR5 nephropathy and glomerulopathy fibronectin deposits. The clinical course varies widely, ranging from isolated benign familial to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) later in life. We investigated 24 families using next generation sequencing (NGS) for 5 genes: COL4A3, COL4A4, COL4A5, CFHR5 FN1. In 17 (71%), we found 15 pathogenic...
Abstract Background Endovascular technologies continue to evolve meet the large and growing burden of peripheral arterial disease. The overall quality published RCTs in endovascular treatments for disease is low, resulting uncertainty over treatment effectiveness. aim this study was develop a framework improve design, conduct, reporting future clinical trials infrainguinal Methods authors undertook development, pilot testing novel framework. comprised four distinct phases. Phase 1...
