Therapeutic lymphangiography with ethiodized oil for the management of lymphoceles and chylous ascites.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the safety, technical success and clinical outcome of percutaneous intranodal ethiodized oil (Lipiodol®) based lymphangiography (L-LAG) for the management of refractory pelvic lymphoceles or chylous ascites using high doses of ethiodized oil.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-four patients presenting with symptomatic, refractory postoperative pelvic lymphocele or chylous ascites referred for theranostic, inguinal, intranodal L-LAG treatment between May 2018 and November 2021 were retrospectively included. There were 21 men and 13 women, with a mean age of 62.

Coil Embolization of True, Common and Proper, Hepatic Artery Aneurysms: Technique, Safety and Outcome.

Purpose: To retrospectively assess the safety and efficacy of coil embolization for catheter-directed true common and proper hepatic artery aneurysm exclusion.

Materials And Methods: Nine consecutive patients (2005-2021) in two university centers presenting with true common and proper hepatic artery aneurysms (> 2 cm in diameter) were treated with 'frontdoor-backdoor' coil embolization. Patients presenting with a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm, mycotic aneurysm or patients with small (< 2 cm diameter) aneurysms and followed up by imaging were excluded.

Infected Urachal Cyst Mimicking Urachal Carcinoma: A Rare Cause of Lower Abdominal Tenderness.

Infected urachal cysts are a rare cause of abdominal complaints and can be accurately diagnosed by abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography (CT).

Balloon-assisted transcaval embolization of a type II endoleak associated with an aortocaval fistula after endovascular aortic repair.

Endovascular aortic repair is an accepted treatment option for patients with infrarenal aortic aneurysm. Type II endoleak associated with persistent aneurysmal sac growth is considered an adverse event requiring endoleak occlusion. We describe the case of a patient with type II endoleak after endovascular aortic repair for infrarenal aortic aneurysm associated with aortocaval fistula and persistent aneurysm growth.
