Intra-procedural intrasaccular device migration is an uncommon complication of endovascular treatment of wide-neck aneurysms. We report the case of a 52-years old Caucasian male who presented with a 3 × 3 mm posterior facing top of the basilar aneurysm in which treatment with WEB-SL (Woven EndoBridge-single layer) device was tempted. Inadvertent WEB migration in the right posterior cerebral artery occurred after detachment. Two retrieval attempts were performed using a combined technique with two different stent-retrievers and a 5-Fr distal access catheter. Upon WEBectomy attempt, the device rolled over the stents, and the passages were unsuccessful. The device was successfully removed using a microSnare, catching and retrieving it inside the 5-Fr distal access catheter. Micro-Snare is an effective bail-out technique to recover migrated intrasaccular WEB devices in cerebral arteries.

Impact of different glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor infusion routes on infarct size and microvascular obstruction in patients with high thrombotic risk ST elevation myocardial infarction.
Acta Cardiol

Division of Cardiology, Cerrahpasa Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa, Istanbul, Turkey.
Objective: Current guidelines recommend the use of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GpIIb/IIIa) inhibitors in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) only as a bail-out therapy. However, drug penetration to the jeopardised area may not be achieved due to impeded blood flow and increased microvascular resistance. Aim of our study is to investigate the impact of distal intracoronary GpIIb/IIIa inhibitor agent infusion in STEMI patients.

Background: Consensus on the nomenclature and indications for reoperation for post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is lacking. This study explores the available literature to classify the different types of reoperations and report outcomes.
Methods: A systematic literature search was performed, including articles from 2010 to 2024 reporting reoperations for POPF after PD.
Novel Bail-Out Strategy for Pigtail Catheter Entrapment During TAVI: A Case Report.
Catheter Cardiovasc Interv
January 2025
Cardiovascular Department, Jolimont Hospital, La Louvière, Belgium.
Article Synopsis
- - Device entrapment during Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is a rare but serious issue, particularly with calcified aorta, as shown in a case involving an 86-year-old female patient where a pigtail catheter got stuck.
- - After failed attempts to retrieve the catheter, an innovative solution was implemented by inflating a post-dilation balloon to stabilize the valve while safely extracting the trapped catheter without damage or the need for surgery.
- - The case highlights the need for preventative measures, such as ensuring catheters can move freely and retracting them before fully deploying the valve, to avoid complications in future procedures.
Bail Out Procedures in Acute Cholecystitis: Risk Factors and Optimal Approach.

Division of Acute Care Surgery, Los Angeles General Medical Center, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Background: For difficult cholecystectomies, bail out procedures (BOP) are performed to mitigate risk of patient harm.
Objective: This study sought to identify risk factors for BOP for acute cholecystitis and to compare outcomes by type of BOP performed. Patients with acute cholecystitis who underwent cholecystectomy were included (2020-2022).

Purpose: To reveal the rate of 1-year freedom from restenosis and to determine the factors associated with the restenosis risk in femoropopliteal (FP) lesions treated with a Ranger drug-coated balloon (DCB) in real-world clinical settings.
Methods: This multicenter, prospective observational study enrolled 1131 patients and 1453 de novo or restenotic FP lesions (mean age=75±9 years; female=35.3%, mean lesion length=19.
