The authors present 25 cases of traumatic iatrogenic vascular lesions of the kidney, treated by embolization. Twenty two patients were seen for serious haemorrhagic complications: the embolization restored haemostasis in all cases. An early precocious relapse, due essentially to the use of reabsorbable embolization material, was seen in 4 patients, 2 of which were able to be reembolized, thereby definitely stopping the haemorrhage. No immediate complications were noted. 5 of the 12 patients follow-up, showed signs suggestive of infarction, strictly localized to the corresponding segmental territory embolized. The use of inflatable balloons facilitates the catheterization of segmental renal arteries and the endovascular treatment. Therapeutic angiography offers a simple, efficient, and remarkably conservative treatment of vascular iatrogenic trauma of the kidney. Angiography defines the number, site and type of vascular lesions ; the embolization assures the elective treatment.

Background: /aims. Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum (PXE, OMIM 264800) is an autosomal, recessive, metabolic disorder characterized by progressive ectopic calcification in the skin, the vasculature and Bruch's membrane. Variants in the ABCC6 gene are associated with low plasma pyrophosphate (PPi) concentration.

Purpose: To evaluate if color Doppler can detect internal blood flow in circumscribed choroidal hemangioma.
Methods: This cross-sectional study examined seven eyes of seven participants with circumscribed choroidal hemangiomas, with or without prior treatment. B-scan ultrasound and color Doppler were used to assess the dimensions, topographical distribution, and internal blood flow of the affected eyes.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of dysfunctional arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) and to identify the risk factors associated with early and late losses of primary patency following DCB in real-world practice.
Methods: This multicenter, retrospective study included 407 patients (72 ± 11 years, 64.1% males) with dysfunctional AVFs (juxta-anastomotic lesion location in 58.

Background: Due to the heterogeneity of literature findings, stent type selection for the endovascular treatment of complex aorto-iliac occlusive disease remains challenging. The BELSTREAM study, a physician-initiated, prospective, multicenter, single-arm study, aims to report the safety and efficacy of the balloon expandable LifeStream Peripheral Stent Graft System (BD, Tempe, Arizona, USA) for the treatment of complex TASC C and D aorto-iliac artery lesions.
Methods: Seventy patients and 133 lesions were included at six Belgian institutions.
