Venous malformation is one of the slow-flow vascular malformations. Dysfunction of coagulation often occurs in most venous malformations, especially the diffuse and multifocal lesions, referred to as localized intravascular coagulopathy. It is characterized by the elevation of D-dimers and fibrin degradation products, low levels of fibrinogen, FV, FVIII, FXIII, and antithrombin III, and sometimes minor-to-moderate thrombocytopenia. Here we reviewed the clinical manifestations, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of localized intravascular coagulopathy in venous malformations.

A Comprehensive Review of Catheter-Related Thrombosis.
J Clin Med

Venous Thromboembolism Unit, Internal Medicine Department, Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Marañón, 28007 Madrid, Spain.
Catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) is a frequent and potentially serious complication associated with the widespread use of intravascular devices such as central venous catheters, including peripherally inserted central catheters and implantable port systems, pacemakers or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators. Although CRT management has been informed by guidelines extrapolated from lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT), unique challenges remain due to the distinct anatomical, pathophysiological, and clinical characteristics of upper extremity DVT. Risk factors for CRT are multifactorial, encompassing patient-related characteristics such as cancer, prior venous thromboembolism, and infection, as well as catheter-specific factors like device type, lumens, and insertion site.

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) represents a quite rare event but with potentially serious prognostic implications. Meanwhile, SCAD typically presents as an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Despite the majority of SCAD presentation being characterized by typical ACS signs and symptoms, young age at presentation with an atypical atherosclerotic risk factor profile is responsible for late medical contact and misdiagnosis.

Background: Fractional flow reserve (FFR) can be estimated by analysis of intravascular imaging in a coronary artery; however, there are no data for estimated FFR in an extremity artery. The aim of this concept-generating study was to determine whether it is possible to estimate the value of peripheral FFR (PFFR) by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) analysis also in femoropopliteal artery lesions.
Methods: Between April 2022 and February 2023, PFFR was measured before endovascular therapy in 31 stenotic femoropopliteal artery lesions.

Introduction: Aplasia cutis congenita (ACC) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by the localized absence of skin at birth, primarily affecting the scalp but also affecting the trunk and limbs. Nine different presentations have been reported. Group V-ACC (G-V ACC) is a rare type associated with fetus papyraceus.

The murine uterus contains three subsets of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). Innate lymphoid cell type 1 (ILC1) and conventional natural killer (cNK) cells seed the uterus before puberty. Tissue-resident NK (trNK) cells emerge at puberty and vary in number during the estrous cycle.
