Endovascular management of bilateral superior intercostal artery aneurysms following late repair of coarctation of the aorta.

Thorac Cardiovasc Surg

Department of Radiology, Hull Royal Infirmary, Hull, UK.

Published: August 2011

Endovascular management of massive bilateral superior intercostal artery aneurysms following late surgical repair of juxtaductal coarctation of the aorta is described in a 40-year-old male patient. Both aneurysms were successfully treated by coil embolisation without the need for further surgical intervention.

We present a case of an 80-year-old female who presented with chest pain, vomiting and night sweats a few weeks post thoracic endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (TEVAR). A computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated a type 1B endoleak for which she underwent a repeat TEVAR. Postoperatively, she developed fever, dysphagia, haematemesis and melaena.

Type B Aortic Dissection Secondary to Non-typhoidal Salmonella Aortitis: A Case Report and Literature Review.

J Community Hosp Intern Med Perspect

November 2024

Department of Nursing, Karnali Academy of Health Science, Jumla, Nepal.

Infectious aortitis is an uncommon but potentially fatal condition that can lead to aortic dissection or rupture. We describe a case of a 69-year-old female who developed a Stanford type B aortic dissection, presumptively caused by Salmonella, which was successfully managed with thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) and long-term antibiotics. A literature review of 17 reported cases from 2000 to 2024 of aortic dissection secondary to infectious aortitis was conducted.

The Role of Interventional Radiology in Managing Placenta Accreta Spectrum Disorder.

Clin Obstet Gynecol

January 2025

Department of Radiology, Boston University School of Medicine, Boston Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts.

Interventional Radiology (IR) can be a crucial player in managing placenta accrete spectrum disorder (PAS), offering minimally invasive angiographic techniques that can prevent or control hemorrhage and preserve fertility. These include prophylactic balloon occlusion of the aorta or iliac arteries, preoperative catheter placement in the iliac or uterine arteries for subsequent embolization, or pre-emptive arterial embolization preceding hysterotomy and delivery. This review provides obstetricians with an overview of IR's role in the management of PAS by describing specific endovascular techniques; existing outcomes data; and considerations for protocol development, preoperative planning, and intraoperative dynamics for when IR assists with PAS cases.

Background: The aim of this study was to examine the impact of early versus delayed catheter-based therapies (CBTs) on clinical outcomes in patients with acute intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism (PE).

Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from 2 academic centers involving patients with intermediate-risk PE from January 2020 to January 2024. Patients were divided into early (<12 hours) and delayed CBT (≥12 hours) groups.
