A rare cause of adult ileocolic intussusception: ileal leiomyoma.

Intussusception is a rare condition in adulthood and, unlike in children, is usually caused by an identifiable underlying lesion, most commonly a gastrointestinal tumour. The clinical presentation is non-specific and often there are intermittent symptoms making the diagnosis difficult based solely on history and examination. Plain radiography may reveal signs of bowel obstruction, however, CT is the gold standard to diagnose and localise an intussusception in adults.

Endovascular Retrieval of Dislodged Neurovascular Devices with a Stentriever: Case Series and Technical Review.

Purpose: Endovascular treatment of neurovascular disorders is now well established as effective and safe; however, the nature of the intracranial vasculature poses unique challenges. The unintentional dislodgement or fracture of a device and its migration within cerebral vessels is a complication with serious potential morbidity that must be managed urgently. In this series, the authors describe 7 cases of a stentriever being used to remove foreign objects from within the cerebral vasculature.

The 100 most cited articles in the endovascular treatment of thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms.

Objective: Since the introduction of endovascular technology to treat thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms, there has been a global research effort focused on assessing the effectiveness of treatment. A bibliometric analysis is used to identify the scientific impact of an article, impactful authors, institutions, and collaborative groups. Our objective was to identify and to analyze the 100 most cited articles in the field of endovascular treatment of thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms.

Use of single photon metal artefact reduction in the detection of an impacted capsule endoscope.

Wireless capsule endoscopy was introduced over a decade ago and is now a widely used tool in the investigation of gastrointestinal pathologies. Despite its ubiquity, the full profile of indications, contraindications and complications is still being developed. Metal artefact reduction is a software technique which can significantly reduce the artefact produced by metallic objects on CT scans.
