Renal transplant anastomotic pseudoaneurysms: Case report of open repair and endovascular management.

Introduction: Anastomotic pseudoaneurysm is one of the rarest vascular complications after renal transplant surgery. Therapeutic options include open surgical repair or endovascular stenting.

Case Presentation: Case 1 had pseudoaneurysm involving external iliac artery and was managed by jump graft to allograft using cadaveric donor iliac arteries and patch angioplasty repair of external iliac artery after excising pseudoaneurysm.

Percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy for indeterminate biliary strictures using the SpyGlass system: a case series.

Peroral cholangioscopy is useful in differentiating benign from malignant biliary strictures. However, when conventional biliary access via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) fails, percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy (PTCS) via the SpyGlass cholangioscopy system can be used to achieve a diagnosis. Four patients with biliary strictures in whom conventional ERCP was not possible and percutaneous brushings were either nondiagnostic or unsatisfactory were investigated with PTCS.
