Incidence and predictors of ophthalmic artery occlusion in intra-arterial chemotherapy for retinoblastoma.

Background: Retinoblastoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in children.

Objective: To determine the incidence of ophthalmic artery (OA) occlusion in patients treated with selective ophthalmic artery catheterization (OAC) for chemotherapy infusion for retinoblastoma. Also, to evaluate technical, anatomical, tumorous, and patient-related factors that are predictors of OA occlusion.

Endovascular robotic: feasibility and proof of principle for diagnostic cerebral angiography and carotid artery stenting.

Background: Robots in surgery aid in performing delicate, precise maneuvers that humans, with inherent physical abilities, may be limited to perform. The CorPath 200 system is FDA approved and is being implemented in the US for interventional cardiology procedures. CorPath GRX robotic-assisted platform is the next-generation successor of CorPath 200.
