Relationship between body figure and stump length in cyanoacrylate closure of varicose veins.

Background: Recurrence of incompetent saphenous veins after treatment is associated with remnant reflux to the branches close to the saphenofemoral or saphenopopliteal junctions, which originate from the residual patent stump after saphenous vein treatment. This study aimed to determine the factors affecting residual stump length after cyanoacrylate closure.

Methods: This retrospective study used prospectively collected data of patients who underwent cyanoacrylate closure.

Successful endovascular repair of iliac artery aneurysms with unsuitable anatomy by combining unibody bifurcated endograft and iliac branch systems to preserve hypogastric artery blood flow: a report of two cases.

Background: To overcome the anatomical limitation of a narrow aorta and short length from the renal artery to the terminal aorta, unibody endograft AFX2 and iliac branch endoprosthesis (IBE) can be combined.

Case Presentation: Case 1: The first patient was an 89-year-old woman who had a right saccular common iliac artery (CIA) aneurysm (38 mm); the abdominal aorta was not aneurysmal (diameter, 19 mm). The right CIA's origin was 10 mm in diameter.
