Thoracic endovascular aortic repair for blunt thoracic aortic injury in young adults with small aortic diameter often encounters high difficulty. We report, to our knowledge, the first case of successful treatment using combination of iliac leg and abdominal aortic cuff stent-graft.

Simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplantation is a recognized treatment for patients with insulin-dependent diabetes and advanced chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal disease (ESRD), offering significant survival benefits. However, it is associated with a higher risk of venous thrombosis, which can jeopardize the survival of the pancreaticoduodenal graft. This case report describes a patient with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and ESRD who developed acute, occlusive deep vein thrombosis (DVT) involving the right common femoral, profunda femoral, and greater saphenous veins on postoperative day 1 (POD1) following a deceased donor SPK transplant, despite systemic prophylactic anticoagulation.

Both veins experienced significant compression - OLCIV proximally and ILCIV medially - due to the overlying right common iliac artery (RCIA) and lumbar spine. The patient presented with bilateral spider veins, lower extremity swelling, pelvic discomfort, and bilateral leg cramping.

Background/objective: Obesity and rapid weight loss are risk factors for developing deep vein thromboses (DVTs). Our aims were to present a patient who developed extensive DVT after relatively rapid and severe weight loss that followed taking tirzepatide and to raise the awareness among health care professionals regarding the risk of DVT that can be associated with significant weight loss due to these agents.
Case Report: We present the case of a 20-year-old young man, with raised body mass index of >35 kg/m, who was initiated on tirzepatide treatment for weight loss, with 12-kg weight lost over 6 weeks.

Intraluminal prosthetic graft thrombus (IPT) has been described in case of endovascular aortic pathology repair. This study aimed to assess hemodynamic indicators associated with various anatomical morphologies following endovascular aortic repair (EVAR), aiming to offer further references for the choice of clinical therapy. Six model models (normal, iliac compression, aortic compression, aortoiliac compression, iliac distortion, and long-leg stent) were established based on common anatomical morphologies following EVAR.

Ruptured iliac artery aneurysms are serious conditions with high mortality, occasionally perforating into the venous system. A 73-year-old male presented with left leg edema and a pulsatile left lower abdominal mass. Computed tomography revealed a ruptured left common iliac artery aneurysm with perforation into the left common iliac vein.
