Risk Score for Two Year Mortality Following Carotid Endarterectomy Performed for Symptomatic Stenosis.
J Vasc Surg
December 2024
Department of Vascular Surgery, Red Cross Hospital, Athens, Greece.
Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify variables at the time of clinical presentation which place patients at higher risk for mortality following carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for symptomatic lesions. Further, this study will create a risk score for mortality within two years following CEA for symptomatic stenosis to help tailor future postoperative and long-term management by identifying patients who require heightened vigilance in postoperative care to facilitate survival.
Methods: The Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI) CEA module was queried for procedures performed for symptomatic (within 180 days) carotid bifurcation stenosis.
Concurrent acute myocardial infarction and acute ischemic stroke in a diabetic patient undergoing chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma: Should I administer thrombolytic therapy? A case report.
Egypt Heart J
December 2024
Jakaya Kikwete Cardiac Institute, P.O. Box 65141, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
Background: Concurrent ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and acute ischemic stroke (AIS) are extremely rare, and their management remains perplexing due to the absence of high-quality evidence and limited resources. For the first time, we report a rare, preventable, and suboptimally managed case of concurrent AIS and STEMI in a patient with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) who received cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone (CHOP) chemotherapy.
Case Presentation: A 59-year-old postmenopausal woman of African origin with a background history of type 2 diabetes mellitus presented to the Jakaya Kikwete Cardiac Institute with sudden onset of left-sided weakness and typical ischemic chest pain for 3 days.
Endovascular intravascular intervention for central venous stenosis in maintenance hemodialysis patients: a retrospective observational study.
Front Cardiovasc Med
December 2024
Department of Nephrology, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital (Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences), Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, China.
Background: The number of people undergoing maintenance hemodialysis is increasing rapidly worldwide. Central vein stenosis (CVS) is a common vascular complication in undergoing hemodialysis, especially those with a history of catheterization. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of CVS and the clinical effectiveness of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) alone and sequential percutaneous transluminal stenting (PTS) in hemodialysis patients with CVS.

J Vasc Surg
December 2024
Columbia University Irving Medical Center, Division of Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Interventions, New York, NY. Electronic address:
Objective: Single-center studies have suggested that solid organ transplant recipients are at increased risk for arterial aneurysms. Moreover, they describe a more aggressive natural history with increased rates of expansion and rupture. In this exploratory analysis, we aim to assess the frequency of arterial aneurysms in solid organ transplant recipients using a large-scale national database.

Front Cardiovasc Med
December 2024
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.
Background: Double aortic arch (DAA) with type B aortic dissection in adults is a rare aortic vascular disease. The abnormal anatomical structure of the aortic arch in such patients presents significant challenges in the selection of surgical approaches, and there is a notable lack of exploration into endovascular repair approaches that simultaneously preserve asymptomatic vascular rings.
Case Description: A 43-year-old female patient was admitted due to recurrent chest and back pain lasting for over a month.
