Delayed severe median nerve palsy due to undiagnosed brachial pseudoaneurysm.

Post-catheterization pseudoaneurysms are a well-known complication of many endovascular procedures at the site of arterial puncture. However, long-term neurological complications due to undiagnosed compression are rare. A 60-year-old man presented to our unit for round, non-pulsatile, painless swelling in the inner side of his upper arm.

Femur Lengthening in a Patient with a Pseudoaneurysm of the Superficial Femoral Artery Treated with Covered Stent.

This case report presents a 29-year-old male patient who presented an articular distal femoral fracture sustained in a road traffic accident in Benin. After the different surgical procedures, the patient presents a knee stiffness and a shortening of the left leg of 7 cm. An ablation of osteosynthesis material and a Judet procedure was done.

Influence of micro- and macro-vascular disease and Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 1 on the level of lower-extremity amputation in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Background: Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) face a high amputation rate. We investigated the relationship between the level of amputation and the presence of micro or macro-vascular disease and related circulating biomarkers, Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 1 (TNFR1) and Angiopoietin like-2 protein (ANGPTL2).

Methods: We have analyzed data from 1468 T2D participants in a single center prospective cohort (the SURDIAGENE cohort).

Impact of angiosome- and nonangiosome-targeted peroneal bypass on limb salvage and healing in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia.

Background: Direct (DIR) or indirect (IND) revascularization of pedal angiosomes in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) has an unclear impact on limb salvage and healing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of DIR and IND revascularization in patients with a peroneal bypass and tissue loss.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of a prospectively maintained database in two European university centers from 2004 to 2015.

Outcome After Open and Laparoscopic Aortic Surgery in Matched Cohorts Using Propensity Score Matching.

Objective/background: To compare the post-operative and mid-term outcomes of laparoscopic aortic surgery with those of conventional aortic surgery performed by a surgical team trained in laparoscopic aortic surgery.

Methods: A prospective study was conducted between January 2006 and December 2011 with 228 consecutive patients having undergone aortic bypass surgery for either an abdominal aortic aneurysm (n = 139) or occlusive aorto-iliac disease (n = 89). Conventional open aortic surgery was carried out in 145 patients, and total laparoscopic repair in 83 patients.
