Patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) require revascularization to improve limb perfusion and thereby limit the risk of amputation. It is uncertain whether an initial strategy endovascular therapy or surgical for CLTI superior improving outcomes.
Background: Open surgical closure and small-bore suture-based preclosure devices have limitations when used for transcatheter aortic valve replacement, percutaneous endovascular abdominal aneurysm repair, or thoracic repair. The MANTA vascular device is a novel collagen-based technology designed to close large bore arteriotomies created by with an outer diameter ranging from 12F 25F. In this study, we determined the safety effectiveness of device. Methods Results: A prospective, single arm,...
BACKGROUND: Physician modified endografts (PMEGs) have been widely used in the treatment of complex abdominal aortic aneurysm and thoracoabdominal aneurysm, however, previous data are limited to small single center studies robust on safety effectiveness PMEGs lacking. We aimed perform an international multicenter study analyzing outcomes aneurysms aneurysms. METHODS: An single-arm cohort was performed elective, symptomatic, ruptured Variables were defined according Society for Vascular...
Information about adenosquamous carcinoma of the colon and rectum is scarce because its extremely low incidence.The aim this study was to examine prognostic significance a histological diagnosis in comparison with adenocarcinoma rectum.This retrospective design.California Cancer Registry data from 1994 through 2004 follow-up 2008 were analyzed.Patients included whose cancer rectum, excluding anus tumor histology carcinoma, surgically treated.The primary outcomes measured histology-specific...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the utility and sensitivity routine pelvic radiographs (PXR) in initial evaluation blunt trauma patients. A retrospective review performed. One hundred seventy-four patients with a fracture who had computed tomography (CT) PXR were included (average age, 36.1; average Injury Severity Score, 16.3). Nine (5%) died. Five twenty-one fractures identified on CT. sixteen (22%) these missed by PXR. Eighty-eight (51%) underdiagnosed alone. most common...
The optimal strategy for lower extremity revascularization (surgical bypass versus endovascular intervention) in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) is unclear. We examined the effectiveness of open surgical using single-segment great saphenous vein conduit (SSGSV), alternative conduits (AC), or interventions (ENDO) among CLTI deemed acceptable either ENDO treatment. This was a planned as-treated analysis multicenter BEST-CLI (Best Endovascular Versus Best Surgical Therapy...
<h3>Importance</h3> In 2003, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality established Patient Safety Indicators (PSIs) to monitor preventable adverse events during hospitalizations. <h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate comparative safety of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) vs open (OAR) abdominal aortic by measuring PSIs associated with each procedure over time. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> Cases were extracted from Nationwide Inpatient Sample (2003-2010). calculated using software...
