Introduction And Importance: Leriche syndrome (LS), or aortoiliac occlusive disease, is a rare form of peripheral arterial disease leading to claudication, impotence, and diminished femoral pulses due to atheromatous obstruction of the infrarenal aorta and common iliac arteries. Early identification is crucial as untreated LS can result in severe complications. Treatment primarily involves surgical interventions, with endovascular options considered as alternatives.

Background: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) in hemodialysis (HD) patients has a significant social impact due to its prevalence, poor response to standard therapy and dismal prognosis. Rheopheresis is indicated by guidelines for PAD treatment.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-five HD patients affected by PAD stage IV Lerichè-Fontaine and ischemic ulcer 1C or 2C according to the University of Texas Wound Classification System (UTWCS), without amelioration after traditional medical therapy and/or revascularization, were selected and underwent 12 Rheopheresis sessions in 10 weeks.

Aortofemoral bypass surgery is a common procedure for treating aortoiliac occlusive disease, also known as Leriche syndrome, which can cause lower extremity ischemic symptoms. Diagnostic imaging techniques play a crucial role in managing pseudoaneurysms (PSAs), with Duplex ultrasound and Computed Tomography-angiography (CTA) being effective tools for early diagnosis. Pseudoaneurysms (PSAs) present as pulsating masses with various symptoms, and prompt intervention is essential to avoid complications.

Aim: The treadmill walking test with post-exercise pressure measurement can be used as a diagnostic test and could classify peripheral arterial disease of the lower limbs. It can also exclude the diagnosis allowing to raise the possibility of differential diagnoses. In this study, we assessed the feasibility of performing treadmill test by advanced practice nurse to assess suspected lower extremity peripheral artery disease patients.

Electronic address:
Objectives: Physical activity (PA) is recommended as part of the management of narcolepsy type 1 (NT1). This study aimed at 1) characterizing PA in children and adolescents treated for NT1 using objective and subjective measurements, 2) evaluating how PA is associated with NT1 symptoms and comorbidities, and 3) evaluating the effects of an Adapted Physical Activity (APA) program on PA and clinical characteristics.
Patients/methods: Patients with NT1 from the National Reference Center of Narcolepsy (Lyon, France) were consecutively included in an APA intervention protocol.
