Background: The outcome of cancer patients with acute limb ischemia (ALI) is not well defined. The purpose of this study is to report our experience treating patients with active malignancy who developed ALI and compare their outcome with non-cancer patients.
Methods: A retrospective review of patients treated for ALI between 2009 and 2012 with ALI.
Background: Surgery for complex aortic aneurysms (thoracoabdominal, juxtarenal and pseudoaneurysms) is associated with a high morbidity and mortality rate. Branched and fenestrated stent grafts constitute a new technology intended as an alternative treatment for this disease.
Objectives: To describe a single-center experience with fenestrated and branched endografts for the treatment of complex aortic aneurysms.
Background: Peripheral arterial occlusive disease is common in patients with chronic renal failure requiring dialysis. Despite the increasing use of endovascular revascularization for lower extremity ischemia, the success rates of treating lower extremity ischemia in this challenging population remain obscure.
Objectives: To assess the results of endovascular revascularization for lower extremity ischemia in dialysis patients.
Purpose: We report a single-center experience with the endovascular management of mycotic aortic aneurysms.
Case Reports: Four cases of mycotic aortic aneurysms are described; all treated with endovascular stent graft with variable configurations. All patients underwent successful placement of stent grafts for their aneurysms.
