Tuberculous Aortic Pseudoaneurysm: An Unexpected Encounter with an Old Acquaintance.

Introduction: (MT) is a rare cause of mycotic aneurysms. Diagnosis and management of tuberculous arterial infection is challenging. A case of a patient diagnosed and successfully treated for an aortic pseudoaneurysm caused by MT infection is reported.

Pre-operative Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio is Associated With 30 Day Death or Amputation After Revascularisation for Acute Limb Ischaemia.

Objective: Inflammation is an early feature of acute limb ischaemia (ALI), hence the potential prognostic significance of inflammatory biomarkers. This study aimed to assess the value of pre-operative inflammatory biomarkers, specifically the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), for predicting an adverse outcome after revascularisation for ALI.

Methods: All patients submitted to lower limb revascularisation for Rutherford IIa or IIb ALI at the authors' institution between 2009 and 2019 were screened retrospectively.

Rare Condition, Unusual Anatomy, Elegant Solution - an Uncommon Manifestation of Kawasaki Disease.

Introduction: Peripheral artery aneurysms are a rare manifestation of Kawasaki disease (KD), with an estimated incidence of approximately 2% of all KD patients. The case of a 14-year-old girl with past clinical history suggestive of KD is reported; she presented with an aneurysm located in the brachial part of a superficial brachioulnoradial artery, still with the genuine brachial artery in place (an anatomical variation with a reported incidence of 0.14-1.
