We report a case of acute confusional state (ACS) resulted from bilateral occlusion of anterior cerebral artery. This case is outstanding because development of ACS was caused by a focal lesion, without the presentation of focal neurologic signs. Then, cerebrovascular disease must be included in differential diagnosis of ACS, despite the lack of clinically detectable deficit.

Introduction: We present a unique case of acute aortic occlusion secondary to infective endocarditis (IE).
Presentation Of Case: An Aboriginal Australian woman with systemic lupus erythematosus presented with fever, confusion, tachycardia, and tachypnoea and had cold, pulseless, insensate, and paralysed lower limbs. Computed tomography angiography revealed multifocal occlusion of the distal aorta and lower limb vessels.
The expression of repulsive guidance molecule a in the rat brain and the diffusion tensor imaging evaluation for crossed cerebellar diaschisis.

Radiology Department, Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou City, PR China.
Background: Cerebral infarction is one of the most common diseases. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been used to evaluate for crossed cerebellar diaschisis (CCD) to observe the expression of repulsive guidance molecule a (RGMa), the axonal regeneration as well as the effect on neural functional recovery in the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rat model.
Purpose: To certify the expression pattern of RGMa in cerebral infarction and the mechanism of CCD to provide a new target for clinical therapy.

Adverse iliofemoral anatomy represents a unique challenge for endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). This report describes a transaxillary EVAR in a patient with severe iliofemoral occlusive disease and an infrarenal aortic aneurysm. A reversely mounted Gore Excluder graft was advanced and deployed in the infrarenal aorta using the left axillary artery.

May-Thurner syndrome is an anatomical anomaly characterized by venous compression of the iliac vein by the arterial system. It is more common in women. It may be asymptomatic or lead to symptoms related to hypertension/venous occlusion, namely, edema of the lower limb.

Int Med Case Rep J
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Rugao Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, Rugao People's Hospital, Nantong, Jiangsu, People's Republic of China.
Background: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is usually caused by acute occlusion of the cerebral artery. Bilateral anterior cerebral arteries (ACAs) originating from the anterior communicating branch of the same internal carotid artery are a rare anatomical variation in clinical practice. Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) of simultaneous acute occlusion of the bilateral ACAs with this variation has rarely been reported.
