AI Article Synopsis
- Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) is a rare condition that can lead to significant health issues, including aortic occlusion, as seen in a 65-year-old man.
- The patient initially underwent axillobifemoral bypass grafting, which was unsuccessful over time.
- He then had a successful thoracobifemoral bypass grafting procedure, which involved a unique surgical approach, and was discharged just five days post-operation.
Article Abstract
Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) is an uncommon fibrotic disorder that can cause pain, ureteral obstruction, deep venous thrombosis, hydrocele, and, rarely, aortic occlusion. Herein is described a 65-year-old man with aortic occlusion from idiopathic RPF who was treated with axillobifemoral bypass grafting, which failed in the intermediate term. On representation with critical claudication, he underwent thoracobifemoral bypass grafting via a lateral retroperitoneal tunnel created through a midline, infraumbilical counterincision. He was discharged home on postoperative day 5. This illustrates the successful use of thoracic aortic inflow to treat the aortoiliac occlusive complication of RPF.

The mediastinal vasculature can be affected by various etiologies in cancer patients. Both direct and indirect sequela of cancer may result in life-threatening clinical presentations. Tumor growth may cause vessel narrowing and decreased blood flow from either extrinsic mass effect, invasion into the vascular wall, or tumor thrombus within the lumen.

Aims: This study aims to verify the feasibility and safety of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) after a distal transradial approach (dTRA) with radial artery occlusion (RAO) recanalization.
Methods: Between July 2018 and January 2022, 30 patients underwent PCI following attempted RAO recanalization via dTRA. Among these cases, the target radial arteries could not be recanalized in five patients, necessitating alternative vascular access.

Interventional occlusion of Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is generally efficacious and complications such as delayed occluder displacement are infrequent. Herein, we report a case of 24-year-old female with a history of unsuccessful PDA closures, who subsequently experienced delayed occluder displacement into the left main pulmonary artery. Despite numerous unsuccessful catheter-based interventions, thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) was successfully executed.
