Unlabelled: Pulmonary vein (PV) stenosis is a rare complication following PV isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation. Despite the benefit of early intervention, screening is not conducted, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion. Standardized management approaches are unavailable for this serious complication.

Aims: Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) is managed by interventions aimed at relieving hepatic venous obstruction and anticoagulation. Despite robust data supporting the tolerability and efficacy of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in patients with other venous thromboembolism, its utility in BCS is not well documented. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of DOACs in Primary BCS from the available literature.

Background: Tandem lesions of the proximal aortic branch vessels and carotid bifurcation are uncommon. While management strategies vary, a hybrid approach of carotid endarterectomy with retrograde common carotid artery (CCA) or innominate artery (IA) stenting has become a mainstay of treatment. The purpose of this article was to provide a review of the literature, discuss alternative treatment modalities, and highlight technical considerations of the hybrid approach.

Intravascular Imaging (intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT)) have initially evolved to guide PCI compared with angiography. However, this technology is not universally employed in all PCI procedures, and there is ongoing controversy regarding its additional benefits to patient outcomes.
