The dark side of the fibroblastic sleeve: Case report and literature review.
J Vasc Access
December 2024
Clinical Department of Medical, Surgical and Health Sciences, University of Trieste, Trieste, Italy.
The fibroblastic sleeve is a structure potentially enveloping any intravascular device. At ultrasound scan, it typically presents as a thin layer of variably echogenic material covering the catheter surface, which usually tends to remain into the vessel after the catheter removal. However, several case reports have documented its migration toward the heart or pulmonary artery after a central venous catheter removal.

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Kansai Rosai Hospital, 3-1-69, Inabaso, Amagasaki, Hyogo, 660-8511, Japan.
Background: Ascending aortic thrombus is a rare disease that can cause fatal thromboembolism. The treatment for the disease is not well defined and depends on the clinical experience of surgeons. Most reports of thrombosis in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) are associated with venous or peripheral arterial thrombosis, and there are almost no reports of thrombosis of the aorta.

Clinic for Cardiology, University Clinical Center of Serbia, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia.
Article Synopsis
- Excessive stent strut protrusion in the distal left main artery can complicate further procedures, making accurate assessment via intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) crucial.
- A complex case was outlined involving a 49-year-old man who suffered from ostial stenting issues resulting in significant stenosis in the left anterior descending artery (LAD).
- The use of IVUS allowed for proper placement of treatment wires and confirmed successful stent application in the affected regions, emphasizing the importance of intravascular imaging for successful outcomes.
Ultrasonographic assessment of the risk of free-floating thrombus detachment in the lower extremity deep veins in patients with fracture.
Clin Imaging
November 2024
Department of Ultrasound, Tianjin Hospital, Tianjin 300211, China. Electronic address:
Objective: To explore the ultrasonographic features and influencing factors of free-floating thrombus (FFT) detachment in the lower extremity deep veins (LEDVs) of patients with fractures.
Methods: Clinical data of patients diagnosed with FFT in the LEDVs and implanted with an inferior vena cava filter (IVCF) in our hospital between July 2021 and August 2023 were retrospectively analysed. The patients were divided into the thrombus detachment group (the experimental group, n = 92) and the non-thrombus detachment group (the control group, n = 103) based on the presence of detached thrombus in the IVCF.
Pulmonary embolism due to an intracardiac thrombosis in a patient affected by Behçet's disease: a case report.
Eur Heart J Case Rep
September 2024
Postgraduate School of Internal Medicine, Sapienza University of Rome, 00185 Rome, Italy.
Background: Behçet's disease is an inflammatory condition, caused by vasculitis of big and small veins and arteries in which, although vascular inflammation is the basis of disease, cardiac involvement is rare. We present a rare case of a man, affected by Behçet's disease, with pulmonary embolism due to a floating thrombus in the right ventricle.
Case Summary: We report a case of a 36-year-old man admitted to emergency department due to dyspnoea and haemoptysis.
