Efficacy of Early Closed Toe Amputation for Toe Ulcers with Suspected Osteomyelitis after Revascularization for Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia.

In this study, we aim to evaluate the efficacy of early closed toe amputation on the wound management of toe ulcers with suspected osteomyelitis after revascularization for chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). This retrospective study included patients who have underwent revascularization for toe ulcers associated with CLTI at Shizuoka Red Cross Hospital from 2015 to 2021. Wound management comprised early closed toe amputation for toe ulcers with suspected osteomyelitis (19 toes in 17 patients) or conservative treatment (35 toes in 26 patients).

Type B Acute Aortic Dissection as a Perioperative Complication after an Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Repair.

Type B aortic dissection (TBAD) is a rare but catastrophic complication of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). We report two cases of TBAD occurring in the perioperative period of EVAR. The intraoperative and postoperative courses were unremarkable.

[Open Aortic Arch Surgery for Type Ⅰ Endoleak after Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair Using Fenestrated Stent Graft;Report of a Case].

Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become a major procedure for thoracic aortic aneurysm and its indication is expanding. On the other hand, TEVAR specific complication is rather critical and its treatment is of increasing interest. Especially, open repair after TEVAR is sometimes demanding and case based strategy is mandatory.
