Extrasplanchnic venous thrombosis is a rare complication of chronic pancreatitis. Thrombosis of inferior vena cava and renal vein, in particular, is extremely rare. We present our recent experience of managing two patients of chronic pancreatitis who presented with renal vein thrombosis. We also highlight the treatment dilemmas facing a clinician managing patients with this atypical and rare vascular complication.

Background: Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP), a glycoprotein widely expressed in the body, is primarily involved in plasma lipoprotein metabolism. Previous research has demonstrated that PLTP can exert anti-inflammatory effects and improve individual survival in patients with sepsis and endotoxemia by neutralizing LPS and facilitating LPS clearance. However, the role of PLTP in sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) and the specific mechanism of its protective effects are unclear.

Rationale: Temporary central venous catheters are commonly used for patients who require emergency hemodialysis. In rare instances, this procedure can result in a very serious complication known as arteriovenous fistula (AVF). Although some cases of femoral arteriovenous fistula have been reported previously in the literature; however, the incidence of iliac AVF precipitated by a hemodialysis catheter is exceedingly uncommon.

Background: When inserting central venous catheters, inadvertent injury of major vessels is a rare yet critical complication. Direct surgery is sometimes overly invasive. This report describes a subclavian artery injury caused by inadvertent cannulation of a dialysis catheter, successfully treated with a covered stent.

Objectives: Vascular access thrombosis (VAT) is a common complication in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), significantly impacting hemodialysis efficacy and patient survival. Currently, temporary dialysis access is typically established deep vein catheterization (VC), however, this method is highly invasive and associated with risks of infection and other complications. This study aims to explore the feasibility of using direct anastomosis indwelling needle puncture (DAINP) for temporary dialysis access.

Introduction: The length of the right renal vein is a crucial vascular factor in kidney transplantation. Its shorter length compared to the left renal vein complicates venous anastomosis. The aim of this article is to review the literature on this topic and provide data from our experience.
