[First case of thrombolysis with non-immunogenic staphylokinase in a patient with ischemic stroke receiving dabigatran etexilate followed by thrombectomy].

Currently, five oral anticoagulants have been shown to be effective in preventing recurrent ischemic stroke and/or systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. However, 1.1-2.

Endovascular Occlusion of Giant Posttraumatic Pseudo-Aneurysm of Superior Mesenteric Artery Connected to Mesenteric Arteriovenous Fistula.

Unlabelled: was to show the capabilities of endovascular occlusion of giant posttraumatic pseudo-aneurysm of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) connected to a mesenteric arteriovenous fistula (AVF) under the conditions of portal hypertension and life-threatening esophageal variceal bleeding.

Materials And Methods: A 27-old male patient underwent endovascular occlusion; the patient being hospitalized with a clinical picture of gastrointestinal bleeding. The examinations: ultrasound, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, multispiral computed tomography with angiography - revealed the source of bleeding to be esophageal varices against the background of portal hypertension caused by massive arteriovenous shunt, its source being AVF with an aneurysmal component (32×35 mm in size) between SMA and superior mesenteric vein (SMV) dilated up to 50 mm in diameter.

[Treatment of acute tandem occlusion of arteries of anterior cerebral circulation without emergency stenting].

Unlabelled: The article deals with problems of endovascular treatment of acute tandem and isolated occlusions of arteries of the anterior cerebral circulation, as well as the problem of reocclusions and new occlusions of these target arteries in the early postoperative period after thrombectomy.

Purpose: To determine the effect of reocclusions and new, previously not identified occlusions of the carotid artery and middle cerebral artery after cerebral thrombectomy on the outcomes of ischaemic stroke, as well as to substantiate feasibility of endovascular policy without simultaneous carotid stenting in thrombectomy in case of tandem occlusions of arteries of the anterior cerebral circulation.

Patients And Methods: We studied the results of endovascular treatment of 52 patients with acute ischaemic stroke, including 26 patients with combined occlusions of the internal carotid and middle cerebral arteries (group 1) and 26 patients with isolated occlusion of the M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery or its equivalent (group 2).

[Peculiarities of diagnosis and emergency surgical care in aorto-oesophageal fistula].

An aorto-oesophageal fistula is a rare but life-threatening pathological condition developing on the background of diseases of the aorta and oesophagus, as well as after surgical interventions on the aorta. The article deals with a clinical case report regarding management of a patient presenting with an aorto-oesophageal fistula resulting from a thoracic artery aneurysm. The main clinical manifestations of the diseases included dysphagia (due to oesophageal obstruction caused by thrombotic masses of the aneurysm) and the occurring gastrointestinal haemorrhage.

Effects of complete revascularization on long-term treatment outcomes in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease over 80 years of age admitted for acute coronary syndrome.

Background: The effects of complete revascularization (CR) on long-term treatment outcomes in patients over 80 years of age with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) have not been sufficiently investigated.

Methods: In this study, we analyzed data obtained in 305 patients over 80 years of age with MVD who were admitted in the period from January 2014 to August 2017 for ACS. The patients were divided into two groups.
