The aim of this study is to explore the timing and method of endovascular intervention for iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS) with thrombus. Data from 111 patients with IVCS, complicated acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) who underwent endovascular interventions were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were divided into Group A (DVT group), including 56 patients with IVCS and iliofemoral DVT, with or without femoropopliteal DVT, with sudden lower limb swelling, and Group B (PTS group) included 55 patients with IVCS and PTS, including 18 with lower extremity wet ulcers and 32 with lower limb infections. Interventional therapies were used to treat the thrombus and eliminate stenosis and occlusion of the iliac vein. In both groups, clinical symptoms in the lower limbs after surgery were reduced significantly, and PTS incidence was low during long-term follow-up. The cumulative patency rate was 75.2% in the DVT group and 88.6% in the PTS group. Comprehensive interventional therapies are safe and effective in patients with IVCS and thrombi. Long-term efficacy in the PTS group tended to be better than that in the DVT group.

Objectives: Upadacitinib (UPA), a selective Janus kinase-1 inhibitor, has demonstrated efficacy in inducing and maintaining remission in moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) in adults. Current standard management for acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC) involves intravenous corticosteroids (IVCS) followed by infliximab (IFX) salvage therapy. Limited data exist on the utility of UPA in ASUC, particularly in adolescents.

Objective: To investigate the effect of intravertebral cleft sclerosis on the efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs).
Methods: We analyzed 68 OVCF patients with intravertebral clefts treated with PVP from January 2020 to June 2022. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on computed tomography findings: intravertebral clefts sclerosis (IVCs, 36 cases) and intravertebral clefts nonsclerosis (IVCns, 32 cases).

Background And Objectives: Cochlear schwannomas, which are categorized into intracochlear and intravestibulocochlear schwannomas (ICs and IVCs, respectively) are rare and may cause hearing loss (HL). The affected region is invariably correlated with tumor location, which can be detected on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We describe the cochleovestibular manifestations of ICs and IVCs.

Background: Intraventricular cavernous malformations (IVCs) are rare vascular lesions of the central nervous system. Surgical resection remains a challenging endeavor, with conventional microsurgical techniques associated with morbidity due to direct brain tissue manipulation. Neuroendoscopic approaches offer a minimally invasive alternative, though their efficacy and safety in treating IVCs remain underexplored.

Article Synopsis
- Iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS) is caused by chronic pressure on the iliac vein, leading to potential complications like venous leg ulcers (VLU), but the diagnostic role of computed tomography venography (CTV) is still being explored.
- A study analyzed the medical records of 62 patients, finding that CTV delivered more thorough information than other imaging methods and that female sex and older age are significant risk factors for IVCS.
- The research indicated that patients with IVCS who received stenting showed notable improvements in both clinical symptoms and ulcer healing rates, suggesting that stenting could be a beneficial treatment option.
