Purpose: Intraoperative ultrasound was used to assess the flow velocity in the marginal vessel arch adjacent to the anastomosis, critical for evaluating the anastomotic blood supply. This technique also enabled us to investigate the potential effects of preserving the left colonic artery on the perfusion of the anastomosis.
Methods: This prospective study included 40 rectal cancer patients who underwent laparoscopic anterior resection between January 2021 and January 2023.

Aim Of The Study: The aim of this case report is to evaluate carotid duplex and hemodynamic patterns in an asymptomatic male patient with innominate artery occlusion. Innominate artery occlusion is a rare clinical entity that can lead to a range of cerebrovascular symptoms, including arm claudication, subclavian steal syndrome, and stroke. The case report emphasizes key learning points in diagnosing innominate artery occlusion using imaging and physiological methods.

Middle aortic syndrome (MAS), an uncommon cause of secondary hypertension, is defined by obstructive narrowing of the abdominal aorta and ostia of its major branches like the renal and splanchnic arteries. Most of the cases of MAS are categorized as idiopathic; however, genetic disorders like Williams syndrome, mucopolysaccharidosis, neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), and Alagille syndrome, and acquired inflammatory diseases such as Takayasu arteritis and other nonspecific arteritis can also lead to MAS. MAS is commonly seen in children and young adults presenting with severe hypertension, congestive heart failure, renal failure, or severe leg claudication.

Aim: Renal artery duplex ultrasonography (RDU) is an effective and non-invasive screening test in diagnosing renal artery stenosis. The discordance of results in multiple RDU is common. We aim to evaluate the discordance and the reasons for discordance between diagnoses and measurements from multiple RDU examinations.
