Major peripheral arterial graft infection is a potentially devastating complication of vascular surgery, associated with significant mortality and high amputation rates. Autologous saphenous veins are considered optimal conduits for lower extremity revascularization in infected fields, but they often unavailable or unsuitable these patients. This study describes two patients major infection, without available autologous veins, who underwent excision cryopreserved cadaveric allograft...
We aimed to investigate the impact of diabetes duration and carotid artery stenosis (CAS) on occurrence major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with type 2 mellitus (T2DM) without clinical disease. A total 2006 T2DM, disease, aged >50 years, who underwent baseline Doppler ultrasound screening regular follow-ups at outpatient clinic our center, were stratified into four subgroups according CAS degree. The primary outcomes included MACE, defined as fatal or nonfatal stroke...
The aim of this study was to determine the clinical outcomes long-term anticoagulation therapy in patients with symptomatic spontaneous isolated dissection superior mesenteric artery (SIDSMA) and evaluate whether conservative treatment is a safe effective modality for these patients. In single center, observational cohort study, data from prospectively recruiting SIDSMA registry, including demographics, risk factors interest, characteristics outcomes, initial follow-up computed tomography...
18F-GP1 is a novel positron emission tomography (PET) tracer that targets glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptors on activated platelets. The study objective was to explore the feasibility of directly imaging acute arterial thrombosis (AAT) with PET/computed (PET/CT) and quantitatively assess uptake. Safety, biodistribution, pharmacokinetics metabolism were also evaluated.Adult patients who had signs or symptoms AAT recently undergone intervention surgery within 14 days prior PET/CT eligible for...
Introduction Although extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a well-established treatment for supporting severe cardiopulmonary failure, the morbidity and mortality of patients requiring ECMO support remain high. Evaluating correcting potential risk factors associated with any ECMO-related complications may improve care decrease mortality. This study aimed to assess predictors vascular cerebrovascular among adult test hypothesis that are higher in-hospital rates. Methods...
F-GP1 is a derivative of elarofiban with high affinity to activated platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa) and favorable in vivo characteristics for thrombus imaging preclinical models. We aimed explore the detection rate thromboembolic foci
Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is a rare primary soft tissue sarcoma. Few reports have detailed tumor features, treatment strategies, and long-term outcomes in IVC LMS patients. The present report describes six patients with LMS.We reviewed consecutive cases treated at University Ulsan College Medicine, Asan Medical Center from August 1998 to June 2010.The comprised five females one male, had median age 44 years (range, 25 64 years). All tumors were suprarenal. located...
The aim of this study was to determine the association between postimplantation syndrome (PIS) and long-term clinical outcomes after elective endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) an abdominal aortic aneurysm. In single-center, observational cohort study, a total 204 consecutive patients undergoing EVAR were included. Primary outcome mortality from any cause; secondary included mortality, systemic or implant-related complications, therapeutic procedures. diagnosis PIS established in 64...
Although splenic artery aneurysms (SAAs) are relatively rare in the general population, they represent most prevalent type among visceral aneurysms. This study aimed to identify predictors of SAA expansion during follow-up and contribute a more comprehensive understanding natural history SAAs. single-center, retrospective, observational included 137 patients with SAAs who were managed conservatively computed tomography for minimum 1 year. The primary outcome was sac expansion, defined as any...
Background: The rupture of splenic artery aneurysms (SAAs) is a life-threatening complication with high mortality rate, occurring mainly in patients cirrhosis and portal hypertension. This study aimed to describe the clinical characteristics concomitant SAAs adult liver transplantation (LT) recipients report long-term outcomes managed by our treatment algorithm. Methods: Between January 2016 December 2020, this single-center, retrospective, observational included 2316 LT recipients. A total...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate retrospectively the results PTA for late-onset PV complications after pediatric LDLT and assess whether a meso-Rex shunt is viable option treating restenosis in selected cases. Seventy-five children who underwent adult-to-child were included study, there six (8.0%). initial therapeutic approach PTA, with or without stent: balloon dilation three children, stent placement one child, failure cannulate occluded two children. A performed failed PTA: One...
Radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombectomy remains the most effective therapeutic option in patients renal cell carcinoma and IVC tumor thrombus. Cephalic extension of thrombus is closely related to perioperative morbidity. We purposed design a safe successful surgical strategy through review our experience treatment results 35 (male:female=28:7, mean age=56 yr [32-77]) who underwent radical between January 1997 December 2006. The limit was level I 10 (28.6%), II 17...
Abstract This study aimed to test the hypothesis that risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) is similar for subjects with asymptomatic mild and moderate carotid artery stenosis (CAS). We enrolled a total 453 CAS (30–69%) detected on baseline screening Doppler ultrasound (DUS) examination between January 2008 December 2010. The follow-up DUS findings MACE occurrence (fatal or nonfatal myocardial infarction stroke all-cause mortality) were compared (30–49%) (50–69%) during 8-year...
Reperfusion injury can be revealed as delayed gadolinium enhancement in the subarachnoid space on a fluid-attenuated inversion recovery image, which is designated hyperintense acute reperfusion marker (HARM). We sought to investigate occurrence and predictors of HARM its association with new ischemic infarcts after carotid revascularization.Forty-five patients who underwent endarterectomy or stenting were prospectively enrolled. Diffusion-weighted imaging performed before 24 hours...
Goals: To evaluate the clinical usefulness of color Doppler and contrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasonography (CEH-EUS) in diagnosing visceral vascular diseases assessing morphologic hemodynamic characteristics required for optimized patient management. Background: Mesenteric arteries are easily accessible with EUS because its proximities to gastrointestinal tract. Study: was performed 12 patients clinically suspected disease, as determined by computed tomography (CT) scan between...
