Background: Chronic endometritis (CE), frequently asymptomatic, is associated with female infertility. Fallopian tube obstruction (FTO) is also one of the factors contributing to female infertility. More than 90% of cases of proximal FTO can be successfully treated after fallopian tubal recanalization (FTR) and the spontaneous pregnancy rate of treated women after FTR is only about 30%.

In instances where a patient with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) did not undergo immediate reperfusion therapy during the acute phase, there was a risk of the occlusion progressing to chronic and the chances of spontaneous recanalization decreasing. This case report detailed the experience of a 37-year-old male patient who, 45 days post-AMI, still had a blocked left anterior descending (LAD) artery due to the patient's refusal for intervention. Two years later, a follow-up coronary angiography showed spontaneous recanalization of the LAD artery, with haziness in the middle segment.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers developed a new rat model of thromboembolic stroke to achieve consistent infarct sizes and locations within the middle cerebral artery (MCA) without needing arterial ligation.
- The model involved using a microcatheter to place a zirconium dioxide blood clot in the artery, and monitoring was done through fluoroscopy over 24 hours.
- The results showed that the blood clot position remained stable in most rats, with a median infarct volume of 242 mm, highlighting the model's potential for testing new stroke treatments.
Article Synopsis
- - Postpartum venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a serious complication that can occur after childbirth, driven by factors like increased blood clotting, reduced mobility, and injury to blood vessels, leading to high risks for new mothers.
- - A case study details a 37-year-old woman with a history of recurrent clots and pregnancy issues that ultimately resulted in severe chronic venous obstruction despite various treatments, necessitating advanced procedures like stent implantation.
- - The patient's medical journey involved multiple challenges, including spontaneous abortions, a pulmonary embolism linked to contraceptive use, and serious complications during and after her last pregnancy, highlighting the importance of careful monitoring and effective prevention strategies for postpartum VTE.
Optical coherence tomography-guided approach in diagnosing and managing spontaneously recanalized coronary thrombus.

Recanalized coronary thrombus is a rare and under-recognized condition in interventional practice, however its incidence is steadily increasing with the use of endo-coronary imaging. It has been initially described by pathological studies in approximately one-third of chronic coronary occlusions. It is described as a chronic occlusion that constitutes several endothelium-covered channels separated by septa that converge into a single lumen.
