A case report of bilateral persistent sciatic artery with thrombosis in a 47-year-old woman: A rare vascular anomaly.

Introduction: The persistent sciatic artery (PSA) is a rare congenital vascular anomaly that arises when the embryonic axial artery fails to regress, potentially leading to serious complications such as limb ischemia.

Case Presentation: We report the case of a 47-year-old woman with a history of essential hypertension and recent hormonal treatment for uterine fibroids. She developed acute limb ischemia due to bilateral PSA thrombosis, which was confirmed through comprehensive imaging.

Effective treatment of intractable diseases using nanoparticles to interfere with vascular supply and angiogenic process.

Angiogenesis is a vital biological process involving blood vessels forming from pre-existing vascular systems. This process contributes to various physiological activities, including embryonic development, hair growth, ovulation, menstruation, and the repair and regeneration of damaged tissue. On the other hand, it is essential in treating a wide range of pathological diseases, such as cardiovascular and ischemic diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, malignancies, ophthalmic and retinal diseases, and other chronic conditions.

Inferior Vena Cava Repair Using Serosal Patch of Small Bowel: An Experimental Study.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and results of using serosal patch of small bowel for repair and replacement of inferior vena cava (IVC) after resection of a part of infra-renal IVC in an animal model, as it may be encountered in extensive tumors of retroperitoneal and trauma patients.

Methods: Five healthy sheep of both sexes were prepared. After general anesthesia and laparotomy, a defect with 1 cm width and 4cm length was made on anterior aspect of infra-renal IVC, and then an adjacent loop of small bowel was brought and sutured continuously to cover the defect of IVC as a patch graft.

Traumatic Aneurysm of Innominate Artery Resulting in Tracheal Stenosis and Rapidly Progressive Respiratory Failure; A Case Report and Literature Review.

Traumatic injuries to great vessels are relative common in trauma practice. Blunt thoracic trauma may result in dissection injury to aorta and innominate artery. We herein present a late presentation of traumatic innominate artery aneurysm.
