Published: December 2020

Visceral artery pseudoaneurysms (PSAs) are relatively rare, and cases associated with distal vasculature of the superior mesenteric artery are largely unreported. Visceral artery PSAs, without intervention, can lead to morbidity or mortality from rupture or mesenteric ischemia. Historically, open aneurysmectomy is the gold standard; however, endovascular modalities have emerged as the first-line treatment in patients who are poor surgical candidates and/or have unfavorable anatomy. Herein, we describe a case of a symptomatic PSA of the distal superior mesenteric artery treated via the transradial approach with endovascular coil embolization, showing successful aneurysmal exclusion and preservation of enteric collateral flow.

Introduction: Metabolic syndrome (MS), identified by abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, and/or dyslipidemia, occurs across all BMI (body mass index) ranges and increases the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular (CV) diseases and type II diabetes. The Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) and Castelli Risk Index (CRI) I & II are ratios that can be calculated from a simple lipid profile test. These ratios are independent risk factors for CV diseases and have been shown to be increased in angiographically confirmed coronary artery disease (CAD) patients.

Twenty-year results of open surgical suprarenal aortic fenestration for acute complicated type B aortic dissection.

Objective: Open surgical suprarenal aortic fenestration (OSSAF) is a technique to treat complicated type B aortic dissection (cTBAD) by resecting the intimal membrane at the level of the visceral arteries. This invasive procedure is largely abandoned since the advent of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) as becoming the gold standard of treating cTBAD. Identifying patterns in the late history of patients who underwent OSSAF might help better understand the evolution of TBAD.

Age-dependent changes in diameters of abdominal visceral arteries in children.

Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Surgery, Van Yüzüncü Yil University, Van, Turkey.

Purpose: The diameters of the abdominal aorta and its branches are affected by demographic properties of patients like age, sex or body mass index. Some researchers use the body of the first lumbar vertebra (L1) as an anatomical indicator to create an exact standard for diagnosing arterial aneurysms or stenoses. In this regard, this work designed to uncover relations of abdominal visceral arteries with L1 in normal children using their abdominopelvic computed tomography images.

Background And Aims: Image Defined Risk Factors (IDRFs) assess surgical risk in neuroblastoma (NB) and guide neoadjuvant therapy. Despite chemotherapy IDRFs may persist in 70 % of cases. Several studies have suggested that not all IDRFs hold equal significance and that the presence of an IDRF does not inherently signify unresectability.
