Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) was designed to treat elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis at high risk for surgery, and is most commonly performed with retrograde approach through femoral arteries. However, in up to 30% of cases, it is either not possible to use this access route or it is considered to have high risk of vascular injury. Alternative approaches have been described for patients with no suitable femoral access: trans-subclavian, transaortic, or direct aortic access; however, since the introduction of new valves deployed with low-profile delivery systems, another alternative transcatheter approach has been discovered. Presently described is experience in 2 cases in which patients were treated with transfemoral TAVR using Edwards SAPIEN 3 transcatheter heart valves immediately following ipsilateral common iliac artery stenting.

A 50-year-old female presented with a 10-day history of progressive swelling and pain in the left lower extremity, ultimately diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and May-Thurner Syndrome (MTS). Initial ultrasound indicated thrombosis involving the left external iliac, femoral, and popliteal veins, among others. Blood tests revealed normocytic anemia, but thrombophilia screening and other blood markers were normal.

Introduction: Osteochondroma is a bony lesion arising from the surface of the bone. It com-prises a large percentage of all benign bone tumors. A unique feature of this tumor is the conti-nuity of cortical and medullary components between the normal bony tissue and aberrant tissue of osteochondroma.

Purpose: The use of surgeon-modified fenestrated endograft to treat a bleeding complication in the common iliac artery.
Technique: An Endurant limb graft was modified on back table in theater after planning the fenestration using a semi-automated centerline. The Endurant stent was planned to land flush at the aortic bifurcation.

Background: Spinal tuberculosis is a common cause of spinal deformity and neurological dysfunction, with surgical treatment being crucial in severe cases. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of combined anterior and posterior surgery with autologous tricortical iliac bone and rib grafting for treating spinal tuberculosis.
Methods: We included 61 patients with thoracic tuberculosis, who underwent a surgical procedure involving initial posterior correction, followed by anterior debridement and reconstruction with autologous tricortical iliac bone and rib grafts.
Impact of the Number of Positive Pelvic Lymph Nodes on Risk of Para-Aortic Recurrence in Patients with Clinically Early Cervical Cancer Treated by a Radical Hysterectomy and Pelvic Lymphadenectomy.
Cancers (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Gynecological Oncology, Centre for Gynecologic Oncology Amsterdam (C.G.O.A.), Amsterdam University Medical Center, 1081 HV Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Background: Guidelines recommend the extension of the pelvic radiotherapy volume to the para-aortic region in locally advanced cervical cancer and ≥3 suspicious pelvic lymph nodes (PLN) on imaging. Whether this recommendation is also valid for clinically early stages is uncertain. The objective of this study was to investigate the para-aortic (PAO) lymph node recurrence rate in patients with early-stage cervical cancer, ≥3 metastatic PLN, and negative common iliac nodes after a radical hysterectomy followed by pelvic (chemo)radiotherapy without extension to the PAO region.
