The paper reports the use of embolic treatment in a case of synchronous bilateral renal carcinoma with caval thrombosis extending to the right atrium. Embolic treatment was also used for a large metastatic mass in the right iliac wing. The problems associated to palliative embolic treatment are discussed together with the relative histopathological aspects and the use of intrarterial IFN.

Objective: Studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of hydrogel-coated coils (HGCs) to achieve the composite endpoint of decreased recanalization rates and greater safety. Herein, the authors aimed to assess the true ability of second-generation HGCs to prevent recanalization.
Methods: This randomized controlled study, the HYBRID (Hydrocoil Versus Bare Platinum Coil in Recanalization Imaging Data) trial, comparing HGCs with bare platinum coils (BPCs), was conducted in 43 Japanese institutions.

Background: Autologous fat injection in facial reconstruction is a common cosmetic surgery. Although cerebral fat embolism (CFE) as a complication is rare, it carries serious health risks.
Case Summary: We present a case of a 29-year-old female patient who developed acute CFE following facial fat filling surgery.
Percutaneous Excision of Left Atrial Myxoma Using Transcatheter Electrosurgery.

Left atrial myxoma is the most prevalent primary cardiac tumor, known for its high risk of systemic embolization. Although surgical excision remains the standard treatment, options are limited for high-risk patients. This case report introduces a novel approach using transcatheter electrosurgery to address a left atrial myxoma via a transseptal approach in a patient ineligible for conventional surgery due to the heightened risk of intracranial hemorrhage associated with cerebral amyloid angiopathy.

Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are primary cardiac tumors associated with significant embolic risk. Surgical excision or medical therapy with antiplatelets and/or anticoagulants have been the treatment options for symptomatic patients. This paper reports our early experiences of percutaneous removal of PFE using mechanical aspiration techniques.
