We present the case of an 18-year-old woman with a 5-day history of thoracic pain and dyspnea following physical exertion, along with swelling of her right calf. Computertomography (CT) angiography confirmed a massive central pulmonary artery embolism (PE) of the left main branch. The patient underwent catheter-directed thrombolysis.

Open Surgical Thrombendarterectomy Versus Endovascular Treatment in Occlusive Processes of the Femoral Artery Bifurcation.

Dtsch Arztebl Int

November 2022

Department of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Heidelberg University Hospital; Department of Visceral, Vascular and Endocrine Surgery, University Medical Center, Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg (Saale):; Institute of Medical Biometry and Statistics, Faculty of Medicine and Medical Center, Albert-Ludwigs-University of Freiburg; Department of Surgical, Oncological and Gastroenterological Sciences, University of Padova, School of Medicine, Padova, Italy; Department of Vascular Surgery, University Hospital of Nantes, France.

Background: The standard treatment of occlusive processes of the femoral artery bifurcation is thrombendarterectomy (TEA). Endovascular techniques (ENDO) have recently been put forward as a potential alternative. It is unclear so far which modality yields better outcomes with respect to long-term revascularization and periprocedural complications.

Aim: To investigate the value of intraoperative angiography and its ad hoc evaluation with respect to cases of surgical technical inaccessibility.

Methods: Overall, 523 consecutive carotid artery thrombendarterectomy (TEA) patients with intraoperative control angiography, postoperative color-coded duplex sonography and retrospective re-evaluation of documented angiographic images were included in the evaluation.

Results: In the retrospective angiographic re-evaluation 23 (4.

Objective: This population-based retrospective cohort study investigates long-term results of femoral thrombendarterectomy combined with simultaneous endovascular intervention of the iliac or femoropopliteal vessels, or both, with focus on freedom from recurrent intervention, limb salvage and survival.

Methods: All patients undergoing femoral thrombendarterectomy and simultaneous endovascular intervention between 1999 and 2013 were included. Stratification was according to clinical symptoms, intermittent claudication or critical ischemia, with subgroups for rest pain and ulcer/gangrene, and for type of endovascular intervention, iliac, femoropopliteal or both.

[Ga]Pentixafor PET/MR imaging of chemokine receptor 4 expression in the human carotid artery.

Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging

July 2019

Division of Nuclear Medicine, Department of Biomedical Imaging and Image-Guided Therapy, Medical University of Vienna, Währinger Gürtel 18-20, 1090, Vienna, Austria.

Purpose: Type 4 chemokine receptor (CXCR4) plays an important role in immune cell migration during the atherosclerosis progression. We aimed to evaluate [Ga]Pentixafor positron emission tomography (PET) in combination magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for in vivo quantification of CXCR4 expression in carotid plaques.

Methods: Seventy-two patients with lymphoma were prospectively scheduled for whole body [Ga]Pentixafor PET/MRI with an additional T2-weighted carotid sequence.
