From 1967 to 1976 49 reconstructions were undertaken in the area distal of the art. poplitea: 30 femoral-crural bypasses, 12 TEA und 7 orthogradic desobliterations. Complications until clinical demission were reviewed. There were in 8 cases postop. thrombosis which led to 4 amputations. 6 patients suffered from wound infection with one consecutive amputation. 4 hemmorages had to be stopped surgically. THE OVER ALL RATE OF COMPLICATIONS WAS 36,7% WITH A PRIMARY MORTALity of 4%.

Background: The presence of significant tortuosity in access routes to aneurysms can interfere with catheter guidance and manipulation and significantly impact treatment strategies.

Observations: In this report, the authors combined intentional staged aneurysm embolization with the construction of a new direct access route, which they call a "highway bypass," for a symptomatic posterior circulation cerebral aneurysm that was difficult to access with a catheter. Notably, the highway bypass is used for catheter passage, and technical tips should be considered.

Background: External ventricular drains (EVDs) provide an invaluable diagnostic method for accessing cerebrospinal fluid and therapeutically treating elevated intracranial pressure. Although complications including hemorrhage and infection have been well documented, the formation of iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms following EVD placement has rarely been reported. The authors present a case of this exceedingly rare complication of iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm formation following EVD placement.

Background: Intravascular injection of liquid adhesive hemostats is a rare but serious complication that can result in cerebral thromboembolism.

Observations: A 64-year-old female underwent orbitozygomatic craniotomy for posterior communicating artery aneurysm clipping with the routine use of a flowable hemostatic agent during extradural dissection. After placement of the aneurysm clip, flow was confirmed through the parent vessel and nearby branches.

Pregnancy Complications and Long-Term Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk.

Curr Atheroscler Rep

January 2025

Department of Medicine, Division of Cardiology, University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA, USA.

Purpose Of Review: Discuss the relationship between pregnancy complications and long-term atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk.

Recent Findings: A large body of research confirms an association between pregnancy complications and increased short and long-term ASCVD risk and seeks to understand mechanisms for these associations. Social determinants of health continue to have a critical impact on the prevalence of adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) and long term ASCVD risk.

Polyethylene Glycol microspheres for uterine artery embolization for the treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids.

Radiol Med

January 2025

Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, AOU Città della Salute e della Scienza di Torino, Corso Bramante 88, 10126, Turin, Italy.

Background: Uterine fibroids are prevalent benign pelvic tumors, often causing debilitating symptoms that impair quality of life. Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is a consolidated minimally invasive treatment option. The purpose of this study is to report our experience with polyethylene glycol microspheres (HydroPearl) in UFE for symptomatic patients.
