Iatrogenic arterial injury is an infrequent but limb-threatening complication of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Open surgical reconstruction may not always be feasible or optimal, particularly in patients who have recently just undergone complex TKA procedures. In this report, we describe the treatment of a patient who developed popliteal artery occlusion following a complex TKA procedure performed the previous day.

Article Synopsis
  • Percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) is an effective method for treating iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis (DVT) by dissolving and removing clots, especially when anticoagulation alone isn't sufficient.
  • However, the use of devices like AngioJet can lead to complications such as intravascular hemolysis and hemoglobinuria, increasing the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI).
  • Clinicians must be vigilant about these potential risks, provide clear information to patients about the possibility of AKI, and ensure timely referrals to nephrologists if severe kidney issues arise.

Acute limb ischemia due to limb-graft occlusion (LGO) after fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair (FEVAR) and acute bypass graft occlusion with an ePTFE graft pose critical challenges, necessitating prompt intervention to prevent limb loss. This paper discusses two cases of acute limb ischemia treated with a hybrid approach using the AngioJet™ Ultra Thrombectomy System as an adjunct to Fogarty thrombectomy. Case I involved a 69-year-old male post-FEVAR with contralateral iliac limb graft occlusion of the fenestrated Anaconda™, while Case II featured a 70-year-old male (ASA IV) post-bypass surgery (iliopopliteal arterial bypass with ePTFE Graft) with acute bypass graft occlusion.

Background: AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy (ART) system has been widely used as a catheter-directed treatment (CDT) method in acute pulmonary embolism (PE), however, there has been a controversy regarding the safety of its use. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we evaluated the efficacy and safety outcomes of ART in patients with PE.

Methods: Our meta-analysis have been based on search in the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library for studies published up to August 2022.
