Published: April 2024

Endovascular repair has traditionally been avoided in patients with connective tissue disorders. We describe successful treatment of multiple endoleaks of an expanding common iliac artery aneurysm previously treated with an endograft in a patient with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. The modalities used to treat the endoleaks were transgluteal embolization of the internal iliac artery and proximal and distal extension of the prior endograft. This case demonstrates endovascular management of endoleaks in patients with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome can be safe and feasible.

Background: Aortoiliac disease (AID) is a variant of peripheral artery disease involving the infrarenal aorta and iliac arteries. Similar to other arterial diseases, aortoiliac disease obstructs blood flow through narrowed lumens or by embolization of plaques. AID, when symptomatic, may present with a triad of claudication, impotence, and absence of femoral pulses, a triad also referred as Leriche Syndrome (LS).

Trans-arterial omental flap protection for infected femoral artery aneurysm in a patient with Parkes-Weber syndrome.

We report a case of a 75-year-old man diagnosed with Parkes-Weber syndrome with an infected common femoral artery aneurysm secondary to chronic venous ulcers and groin infection. Given the symptomatic and rapid enlargement of the aneurysm, emergency aneurysmectomy and crossover femoro-femoral bypass were performed with an omental flap routed intraluminally through the aneurysm of the ipsilateral external iliac artery. The transarterial route enabled the short-cutting of the omental flap and the potential prevention of infection in the adjacent external iliac artery.

Multiple Aneurysmal Arterial Disease (MAD) is an extremely rare arterial vascular condition and is produced by an abnormal alteration of smooth muscle cells and neutrophils, producing a multiple-aneurysmal degeneration. We present the case of a 36-year-old patient with a MAD in the cerebral territory and extremities with no surgical indication; however, with an aneurysm of the right inferior renal segmental artery, inferior mesenteric artery, left common iliac artery, and right internal iliac artery with surgical indication. An open approach with single-stage surgical repair, including graft interposition, bypass, exclusion, and vascular reimplantation, was performed.

Lateral lymph node dissection (LLND) is getting global attention as an a surgical option to reduce local recurrence in locally advanced rectal cancer. As the transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) is gaining popularity worldwide, a novel LLND approach was established adopting a two-team approach that combines the transabdominal and transanal approaches using the TaTME technique. This narrative review describes the advantages, anatomical landmarks, surgical techniques, and pitfalls of transanal LLND (TaLLND).

Background: Cesarean hysterectomy in the placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) remains challenging due to difficulty in controlling perioperative bleeding.

Purpose: To compare the effectiveness and safety of perioperative balloon occlusion with versus without pelvic artery embolization in PAS women who underwent a cesarean hysterectomy.

Material And Methods: A total of 26 pathological confirmed cases of PAS were retrospectively reviewed and categorized into two groups: perioperative balloon occlusion at either the anterior division of the internal iliac artery or uterine artery followed by gelfoam embolization (n = 12, study group) and perioperative balloon occlusion alone (n = 14, control group).
