Technical outcomes of below-the-elbow revascularization for upper extremity critical limb ischemia.

Objectives: This study aims to report the technical results of below-the-elbow arterial revascularization in patients with critical hand ischemia.

Methods: We retrospectively identified upper extremity critical limb ischemia patients treated with below-the-elbow arterial intervention between 2013 and 2017. Patient demographics, comorbidities, and procedural data were reviewed and technical success was evaluated.

Conception rates after fluoroscopy-guided fallopian tubal cannulation: an alternative to fertilization for patients with tubal occlusion.

Objective: Previous studies show good technical success rates for fallopian tube recanalization. Scarce literature exists regarding advance techniques currently used by interventional radiologists during fallopian tube recanalization procedures. This study investigates the level of intervention and tubal patency and its association with technical success and associated pregnancy outcomes.

Inadvertent noncaval filter deployment and its management.

Inferior vena cava filters are placed to prevent life-threatening pulmonary embolism in a selected group of patients. Significant complications are known to occur with prolonged dwell times, and rarely during initial placement. In this report, we describe two cases of inadvertent noncaval inferior vena cava filter placements, specifically in the azygous vein and right renal vein, and the complex methods used to retrieve them, which exemplify the critical importance of routine and careful placement techniques.
