Below-the-knee (BTK) pseudoaneurysms that occur after endovascular therapy (EVT) and result in delayed rupture have rarely been reported. In this report, we present a rare case of an 86-year-old man with chronic limb-threatening ischemia who developed delayed rupture of an idiopathic pseudoaneurysm of the peroneal artery (PA) following EVT. The PA chronic total occlusion (CTO) was successfully crossed using a guidewire via an antegrade approach, however, subintimal crossing was confirmed by intravascular ultrasound. Balloon angioplasty was then performed using an appropriately sized balloon, resulting in successful recanalization of the PA CTO with minor dissection and no complications. Postoperatively, the patient's condition was stable until he suddenly complained of right calf pain 10 days after EVT. Computed tomography revealed a rupture of the PA pseudoaneurysm. Urgent angiography revealed two pseudoaneurysms, one saccular and the other spindle-shaped. The ruptured saccular aneurysm was successfully excluded through coil embolization and stent graft placement. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of delayed rupture of a BTK pseudoaneurysm following EVT. Balloon angioplasty in the subintimal space can lead to the formation of a pseudoaneurysm and its delayed rupture.

Early-onset high myopia (eoHM) in children is a kind of high myopia that occurs in preschool children. While affecting the visual development process, eoHM can cause a series of complications such as retinal rupture and detachment, and posterior scleral staphyloma, which not only damage the visual function, but also delay the overall development of children. Therefore, early prevention, early diagnosis, timely treatment, and long-term management are crucial.

Background: Flow diverters (FDs) have been introduced for the management of large or giant cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCAs) in addition to conventional modalities, dramatically changing treatment strategies. The aim of this study was to examine the management of unruptured large/giant CCAs in Japan when FDs were being introduced using a nationwide survey.
Methods: 540 unruptured large/giant CCAs treated at neurosurgical teaching departments in Japan between 2012 and 2016 were retrospectively studied.

Thrombosis, when occurring undesirably, disrupts normal blood flow and poses significant medical challenges. As the skeleton of blood clots, fibrin fibers play a vital role in the formation and fragmentation of blood clots. Thus, studying the deformation and fracture characteristics of fibrin fiber networks is the key factor to solve a series of health problems caused by thrombosis.

Objectives: The COVID-19 epidemic introduced significant systems- and disease-based uncertainty into Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) rupture management. The goal of this work was to evaluate whether short-term AAA rupture outcomes during COVID-19 were comparable to pre-COVID era outcomes and to explore the impact of COVID status and COVID era healthcare systems restrictions on AAA rupture outcomes.
Methods: The Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI) database was queried for all ruptured AAAs that underwent intervention from January 1, 2019 to August 31, 2022.
Spontaneous bladder rupture masquerading as loculated ascites with septations in postpartum - A case report.

The occurrence of spontaneous bladder rupture during labor or the postpartum period after an uncomplicated vaginal delivery is exceedingly uncommon. However, we encountered a case involving spontaneous bladder rupture, which resulted in the development of localized fluid collections in the abdomen after an uncomplicated vaginal delivery. In this instance, the absence of typical peritonitis symptoms, such as abdominal pain or tenderness, and the lack of typical urological symptoms, including haematuria, dysuria, and anuria, coupled with the absence of clinical manifestations of puerperal sepsis, the absence of microbial presence in the ascitic fluid, and the patient's symptomatic amelioration following antibiotic therapy, contributed to a delay in identifying the bladder rupture.
