The use of large animals in research provides a unique bridge between preclinical findings and clinical relevance, offering a valuable perspective for advancing our understanding of the complexities of heart failure. Multiple models of heart failure have been established with advantages and limitations of each model. Many insights have been gained from these models for understanding both pathophysiological mechanisms and therapeutic interventions for heart failure.

This paper revisits and shows comprehensive femoral access site anatomy with a combination of images obtained from detailed cadaveric dissection, fluoroscopy, computed tomography, ultrasound, and 3-dimensional printings. Part 2 focuses on the fluoroscopic anatomy, pelvic cavity, and complications. In addition, a file for 3-dimensional printing is provided.

We revisit and show comprehensive femoral access site anatomy with a combination of images obtained from detailed cadaveric dissection, fluoroscopy, computed tomography, ultrasound, and 3-dimensional printings. Part 1 focuses on the femoral triangle, femoral bifurcation, fluoroscopic and/or ultrasonographic anatomy, and branches of the femoral artery. Profound understanding of this region is fundamental to facilitate safe procedures and to avoid unnecessary complications.

Despite the challenges associated with periprocedural imaging, transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions have shown important impact on outcomes. A comprehensive understanding of the anatomy of the right heart and surrounding structures is crucial. One way to optimize these interventions is by identifying the optimal fluoroscopic viewing angles along the S-curve of the tricuspid valve.

Purpose: The stellate ganglion (SG), or cervicothoracic ganglion, is usually located anterior to the neck of the first rib. Various techniques, such as ultrasonographic imaging and fluoroscopic approaches, are used to assist in the anesthetic blockade of the SG. However, there are reported complications associated with SG block; some patients had medication-related or systemic side effects, and some had procedure-related or local side effects.
