Ibero-American Society of Interventionism (SIDI) and the Spanish Society of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (SERVEI) Standard of Practice (SOP) for the Management of Inferior Vena Cava Filters in the Treatment of Acute Venous Thromboembolism.

Objectives: to present an interventional radiology standard of practice on the use of inferior vena cava filters (IVCFs) in patients with or at risk to develop venous thromboembolism (VTE) from the Iberoamerican Interventional Society (SIDI) and Spanish Vascular and Interventional Radiology Society (SERVEI).

Methods: a group of twenty-two interventional radiologist experts, from the SIDI and SERVEI societies, attended online meetings to develop a current clinical practice guideline on the proper indication for the placement and retrieval of IVCFs. A broad review was undertaken to determine the participation of interventional radiologists in the current guidelines and a consensus on inferior vena cava filters.

COVID-19 Outbreak: Infection Control and Management Protocol for Vascular and Interventional Radiology Departments-Consensus Document.

COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2 virus) pandemic was recently declared by the WHO as a global health emergency. A group of interventional radiology senior experts developed a consensus document for infection control and management of patients with COVID-19 in interventional radiology (IR) departments. This consensus statement has been brought together at short notice with the help of different protocols developed by governmental entities and scientific societies to be adapted to the current reality and needs of IR Departments.

Combined use of uterine artery embolization and local methotrexate injection in interstitial ectopic pregnancies with poor prognosis.

Objective: To report three cases of interstitial pregnancies treated successfully by combining uterine artery embolization (UAE) and ultrasound-guided local administration of methotrexate (MTX); and to assess the effect of UAE on ovarian reserve by prospectively measuring serum antimüllerian hormone (AMH) levels.

Design: Case report.

Setting: Departments of obstetrics and gynecology and radiology of a university hospital.

Vesselplasty: a new technical approach to treat symptomatic vertebral compression fractures.

Objective: The objective of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of vesselplasty to treat symptomatic vertebral compression fractures (VCFs).

Subjects And Methods: Twenty-nine patients undergoing vesselplasty at our institution between April 2006 and February 2008 were enrolled in the study. All patients had been undergoing medical therapy for one or more painful VCFs.

Vascular imaging and interventional procedures in hepatic cirrhosis.

Changes in the vascularization of the cirrhotic liver are related to the progression of the disease. Knowledge of normal hepatic vascular anatomy and anatomic is essential for understanding the altered hepatic circulation seen in cirrhosis. We analyze the changes in liver perfusion with special interest in the anatomic features that are important in interventional procedures.
