Multiple giant intercostal and lumbar artery aneurysms.

This case report presents a 49-year-old male with multiple intercostal and lumbar aneurysms of the thoraco-abdominal aorta, complicating a history of aortic surgeries and comorbidities. Following emergent surgical repair of a ruptured lumbar aneurysm, a multidisciplinary team opted for staged interventions, mitigating risks and optimizing outcomes. Treatment stages involved surgical ligation and endovascular embolization, aiming to minimize complications, particularly spinal cord ischaemia.

Case report: A hybrid technique for a safe nephrectomy in a giant kidney angiomyolipoma.

Background: Giant angiomyolipoma is usually associated with genetic syndromes and complications (spontaneous rupture and bleeding, hematuria, hypertension) and mass-related symptoms (flank and abdominal pain).

Case Presentation: We present a case of a 20-year-old woman suffering from tuberous sclerosis who was referred to our hospital with a giant angiomyolipoma causing abdominal pain. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a left angiomyolipoma, measuring 28 cm × 17 cm × 27 cm.

Management of Inadvertent Supra-aortic Arterial Lesions During Central Venous Access Procedures: Report of Six Cases and Proposed Algorithm.

Accidental supra-aortic arterial cannulation during central venous catheter (CVC) insertion is a rare and serious complication associated with risk of vascular and neurologic complications. The aim of this study is describing our 6 cases experience and propose a management algorithm. We retrospectively evaluated the diagnosis and treatment of six patients arrived at our Department for accidental supra-aortic arterial cannulation during CVC insertion.
