This report is of a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating the efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) for nonvariceal gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) with n-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) or coils as the primary embolic agent. The primary outcome was the clinical success rate. The secondary outcomes were technical success rates, 30-day rebleeding rates, major complication rates, and 30-day overall mortality rates.

Materials And Methods: Between April 2016 and March 2022, 27 patients who underwent cryoablation for small renal tumors at our institution participated in this study, which investigated time-dependent changes in postoperative renal function. We evaluated estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) and split renal function revealed by scintigraphy using 99 m technetium-mercaptoacetyltriglycine (99mTc-MAG3) before cryoablation and at 1 week, 1 month, and 6 months after cryoablation.
Purpose: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of publications to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of percutaneous thermal ablation (PTA) plus percutaneous cementoplasty (PCP) (PTA + PCP) for painful bone metastases.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Cochrane Library and Embase for articles published up to October 2022. Outcomes were a 10-point pain scale, morphine equivalents daily dose (MEDD) and complications.
Purpose: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of publications to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of percutaneous splanchnic nerve neurolysis (SNN) for cancer-related pain.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Ichushi-Web for English or Japanese articles published up to July 2022 and reporting patients who underwent percutaneous SNN for cancer-related pain. The outcome measures assessed in the systematic review and meta-analysis were the pain measurement scales and morphine equivalents daily dose (MEDD) before and after the intervention and the rate of complications.
We encountered a case of complex isolated spontaneous celiac artery dissection with a patent false lumen with both entry and re-entry and extensive aneurysmal degeneration of the splenic artery. The dissection entry was wide and was located at the origin of the celiac artery. The false lumen extended to the distal part of the splenic artery, obstructed the true lumen, and was connected to the true lumen at the splenic hilum via the re-entry.

We successfully recanalized the stenotic segment via interventional radiology, which immediately relieved the symptoms. The interventional radiology computed tomography system was helpful for the safe and precise performance of endovascular treatments.

Methods: PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and Ichushi-Web were searched for English or Japanese articles published up to February 2022, which reported findings about patients who underwent CT-guided single CPN. The outcome measures assessed in the systematic review and meta-analysis were the pain measurement scales from 0 to 10 before and after the intervention and the rate of minor and major complications.
