Objectives: To evaluate the balloon occlusion of the internal iliac arteries during a caesarean section in the group of patients with placenta accreta spectrum.
Material And Methods: We analysed 29 pregnant women with placenta accreta spectrum. The study group consisted of 15 patients, who underwent a caesarean delivery with temporary bilateral internal iliac artery occlusion. In the control group, we examined 14 women who had a standard caesarean delivery without any radiologic procedure. We compared pre- and post-operative haemoglobin level, necessity of blood transfusion, intraoperative blood loss, intensive care requirement, complications, duration of surgery, anaesthesia and hospital stay.
Results: The history and obstetric outcomes were similar in both groups. The study group required fewer blood transfusions than the control group (p = 0.0176). We administered less packed red blood cells and fresh frozen plasma. Complications were more frequent in the control group (p = 0.0014). Complications related to occlusion of the internal iliac arteries did not occur. The intensive care unit transfer was more frequent in the control group (p = 0.0329). The duration of surgery and hospital stay did not differ between groups. The anaesthesia time was longer in a study group, which related to the radiologic procedure.
Conclusions: Caesarean delivery for placenta accreta spectrum with bilateral balloon occlusion of the internal iliac arteries requires fewer transfusions. It contributes to a decrease in the complication rate and maternal morbidity.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the single-energy metal artifact reduction (SEMAR) algorithm in reducing metal artifacts and enhancing image quality in contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) for patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with coil embolization. Thirty-eight patients (mean age 81.0 ± 6 years; 31 men, 7 women) who underwent contrast-enhanced CT following EVAR and internal iliac artery coil embolization between September 2022 and May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.

A 25-year-old male presented with a ballistic fracture of the right glenoid resulting in > 30% loss of the posterior glenoid articular surface and acute posterior glenohumeral instability that was treated with open reduction internal fixation with iliac crest autograft transfer. There is limited consensus on the operative management of ballistic intra-articular fractures due to the heterogeneity of these injuries. Acute posterior glenohumeral instability secondary to a ballistic fracture is a rare injury pattern.

Introduction: Compared to aortic dissection and isolated visceral artery dissection, multiple peripheral arterial dissections have not been formally reported to date. Currently, there is no well-established treatment for this condition, and large-scale studies with extensive sample data are lacking.
Case Presentation: A 56-year-old male, was provisionally diagnosed with " idiopathic multiple peripheral arterial dissections.

Background: The standard approach for addressing intra-articular calcaneal fractures involves open reduction with plate and screw fixation, with ongoing discourse regarding the application of grafts to address bone gaps. The aim of this study is the temporal comparison of the radiological and functional outcomes in patients undergoing surgery for intra-articular calcaneal fractures, with a specific focus on the use of bone grafts.
Methods: Thirty patients, comprising 13 with iliac grafts and 17 without, were enrolled in the study.

A 50-year-old female presented with a 10-day history of progressive swelling and pain in the left lower extremity, ultimately diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and May-Thurner Syndrome (MTS). Initial ultrasound indicated thrombosis involving the left external iliac, femoral, and popliteal veins, among others. Blood tests revealed normocytic anemia, but thrombophilia screening and other blood markers were normal.
