Introduction: An arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a potential complication of endovascular therapy (EVT). Arteriovenous fistula steal syndrome sometimes leads to severe limb ischaemia; however, assessment of peripheral perfusion in AVF has not yet been established.
Report: A 90 year old woman diagnosed with chronic limb threatening ischaemia underwent EVT.
Article Synopsis
- PTPN11 plays a key role in LEOPARD syndrome (LS) and can lead to various heart issues, as shown in a case study of a 49-year-old man.
- The patient experienced syncope, and diagnostic tests revealed a complex mix of cardiac abnormalities including accelerated idioventricular rhythm and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy-like changes.
- Despite potential treatment challenges, he was managed successfully with beta-blockers, and follow-up showed stable cardiac function without severe complications over 2.5 years.
Background: The trans femoral ipsilateral approach is often adopted for endovascular treatment (EVT) for better steerability of guidewires or better device deliverability. However, contrary to the trans femoral contralateral approach, ipsilateral antegrade puncture sometimes causes peculiar bleeding complications.
Case Presentation: A 76-year-old female underwent EVT for chronic occlusion of the left superficial femoral artery (SFA) via the ipsilateral antegrade approach.
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between nutritional status and hospital outcomes in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) in a local area of contemporary super-aged society of Japan.
Materials And Methods: We analyzed 131 consecutive patients with 179 lower limb diseases admitted to our hospital for the treatment of CLTI between April 2018 and March 2023. These 131 patients were divided into 3 groups according to hospital outcomes: home discharge (HD), out-of-home discharge (OD), and in-hospital death (ID).
Background: Infectious aortic disease is a rare and fatal disease, that requires the appropriate intervention. An accurate diagnosis should be promptly established. However, this is difficult because the clinical manifestations of this disease vary and are non-specific.
