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.
Background And Aims: Before performing any surgical or endovascular procedure, the anatomical classification of the patient is essential for treatment planning. Computed Tomographic Angiography (CTA) is a standard method to evaluate thoracic aortic anatomy and associated variations.
Methods: This cross-sectional, descriptive study was performed among adult participants without any peripheral vascular diseases undergoing thoracic CTA.
Key Clinical Message: Abdominal cocoon syndrome and Chilaiditi syndrome are rare etiologies of bowel obstruction which have to be considered in patients with obstructive symptoms. Patients can profit from surgical management rather than non-surgical approach.
Abstract: Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis or abdominal cocoon syndrome (ACS) is an uncommon cause of intestinal obstructions associated with encapsulation of the small bowel by a fibro collagenous sac.
Background: The only beneficial treatment option for the management of inferior vena cava (IVC) tumor thrombus is complete tumor removal. The aim of this study was to report our experience in surgical and clinical outcomes in patients with tumor thrombosis in IVC.
Methods: A retrospective chart review of patients who underwent surgical resection of IVC tumor at our institution over the past 10 years was performed.
