Published: February 2021

Superficial arteriovenous fistulae in the absence of other complicating features can be easily treatable with simple surgical excision. In this case, the patient's troublesome symptoms were completely cured with a straightforward procedure.

Indocyanine green video angiography, integrated into the operative microscope, is frequently used in cerebrovascular surgery. This technology is often preferred, for cost or availability, to Doppler or intraoperative DSA (digital subtraction angiography). With the same assumption it was possible, in our preliminary experience, to partially vicariate the aforementioned devices using the SPY mode of the Stryker endoscope; it allowed the visualization of fluorescence in high definition.

Background: An autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) provides an optimal and secure way for managing the condition. An optimal blood supply to hemodialysis is linked to decreased incidence of complications and mortality, as well as reduced expenses. The objective of this research was to evaluate the outcome of people with suboptimal superficial venous system quality or who had exhausted all available arteriovenous fistula options, who received either autologous saphenous vein graft or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) interposition graft as an access for effective hemodialysis.

Background: Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and developmental venous anomaly (DVA) rarely coexist. Developing a surgical strategy to treat this co-occurrence is difficult due to the unclear pathogenesis. We report the use of super-selective digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and Three-dimensional (3D) rotational digital subtraction venography (DSV) to develop a surgical strategy for complex AVM draining into a DVA.

Recently intermittent negative pressure has emerged as a potential treatment in vascular disease and has similarities with established experimental interventions such as lower body negative pressure. The direct, local influences of either method upon intravascular pressure still require some clarification however, particularly in the immediate moments following onset. We investigated the acute intravascular pressure responses to intermittent cycles of negative pressure in the supine and sitting postures.

We describe the case of a 72-year-old man who presented with signs of increased intracranial pressure, right-sided motor deficit, and repeated episodes of epilepsy due to a left frontal arteriovenous malformation (AVM) with a large superficial draining vein. Despite great efforts to protect the vein from the start, it ruptured shortly after we removed the bone flap. This required rigorous hemorrhage control, which in turn led to profuse bleeding from the nidus throughout the process of the dissection and coagulation of the arterial feeders.
