Article Synopsis
  • Cell-based therapies, specifically using human Muse cells, show potential in treating peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in severe limb ischemia cases, though the best methods are still being researched.
  • In a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia, Muse cells led to improved blood flow, increased microvascular density, and less fibrosis compared to other treatment groups.
  • Muse cells also produced more vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and promoted anti-inflammatory responses, indicating they could be a promising new therapy for PAD patients.

Negative pressure pulmonary edema and hemorrhage are uncommon but potentially life-threatening complications associated with general anesthesia. Postoperative negative pressure pulmonary edema usually occurs immediately after surgery, and delayed-onset cases occurring more than 1 hour after surgery have rarely been reported. A 37-year-old woman with bronchial asthma underwent vocal cord polypectomy under general anesthesia in another hospital and experienced cardiac arrest due to a negative pressure pulmonary hemorrhage occurring 3 hours and 30 minutes after surgery.

Retroperitoneal hemorrhage due to iatrogenic rupture of the iliac artery is a life-threatening complication associated with endovascular intervention. We present a case of iatrogenic iliac rupture after insertion of a sheath into a severely tortuous iliac artery during coil embolization of a cerebral aneurysm. Bleeding was controlled by resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta followed by placement of a balloon-expandable stent graft into the iliac artery.
