Purpose: In some patients, revascularization is not possible or is not effective. For these, percutaneous deep vein arterialization (p-DVA) could be considered an alternative treatment. The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term results of an intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided technique that has only one percutaneous access.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of a rotational mechanical thrombectomy device (Rotarex S) in patients experiencing iliac limb occlusion after abdominal endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).
  • A retrospective analysis involved 23 male patients, averaging 74.5 years, who underwent thrombectomy for symptoms ranging from acute limb ischemia to chronic limb-threatening ischemia between 2017 to 2021.
  • Results showed 100% technical success without any post-procedural deaths, with most patients receiving endograft relining; follow-up indicated low rates of reocclusion and no further interventions needed.

Purpose: This study reports the outcomes from a Multicenter Registry on unibody stent-graft system for the treatment of spontaneous infrarenal acute aortic syndrome (MURUSSIAS registry).

Materials And Methods: The retrospective MURUSSIAS registry included spontaneous infrarenal acute aortic dissection (IAAS) managed with the unibody stent-graft system (AFX endovascular AAA system; Endologix Inc., Irvine, California) outside the current instruction for use.

Purpose: In patients with no-option critical limb-threatening ischemia, venous foot arterialization can be considered the last chance before major amputation. Up until now, a really significant limitation of endovascular arterialization compared with surgery was the possibility to obtain arterial flow into the foot only through the deep plantar network.

Technique: Two 5-mm snares are placed: one in the proximal tibial artery and the other in the great saphenous vein.

Background: The outcomes of pancreatectomy with superior mesenteric vein (SMV) or portal vein (PV) resection have been mixed. This study investigated the morbidity and mortality profile after SMV-PV resection in comparison with standard pancreatectomy. Furthermore, we assessed whether tumors with histologically proven SMV-PV infiltration differ from other pT3 neoplasms in terms of recurrence pattern and survival.
