AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates how distal bypass surgery affects tissue blood pressure in direct (DRA) and indirect (IRA) revascularized angiosomes in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI).
  • A total of 29 limbs from 27 CLTI patients underwent repeated skin perfusion pressure (SPP) measurements before and after surgery, showing improvements in tissue blood flow for both DRA and IRA.
  • The findings suggest that distal bypass surgery enhances tissue blood flow throughout the foot, not just in the connected angiosomes.

Article Abstract

Distal bypass surgery's effect on tissue blood pressure beyond a focal angiosome remains debated. This study assessed tissue blood pressure in both direct revascularized angiosome (DRA) and indirect revascularized angiosome (IRA) after bypass surgery, utilizing repeated skin perfusion pressure (SPP) measurements. Twenty-nine limbs in 27 chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) patients (22 males and five females, age: 70.2 ± 9.3 years) who received distal bypass surgery were enrolled. SPP measurements were conducted for the DRA and IRA at 10 time intervals, encompassing both preoperative and postoperative periods of every 3-5 days until 30 days. In total, 486 SPP measurements were collected from 58 measurement sites, and the transition of the SPP at the DRA was 35.4-62.5-59.5-70.2-58.2-62.2-63.1-63.6-63.8-73.4 mmHg and IRA was 29.4-53.4-53.7-58.8-51.3-63.1-47.9-62.1-57.6-61.0 mmHg. No significant differences were observed between SPP at the DRA and IRA. Fifteen wounds on the DRA (63%) and five on the IRA (100%) healed. Distal bypass improves SPP in both direct and IRAs of CLTI patients. These data indicated distal bypass improves tissue blood flow at entire foot regardless of angiosomes.

Background: The outcome of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) depends on several factors, including the quality of the distal anastomoses to the coronary arteries. Early graft failure may be caused by, e.g.

Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, CHL.

Pancreatoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy are standard treatments for various pancreatic pathologies. These procedures involve radical resection and a significant loss of pancreatic tissue, which can lead to exocrine and/or endocrine pancreatic insufficiency. In selected cases of benign tumors or those with low malignant potential, central pancreatectomy can be performed with acceptable morbidity and mortality rates.

Urology and Nephrology Research Center, Research Institute of Urology and Nephrology, Shahid Labbafinejad Medical Center, Urology Department, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.

This study developed an animal model with internal and external urethral sphincter insufficiency by bypassing the sphincter without major damage so that the animal under study can return to normal life after the study. There is a need for a reliable, applicable, and reproducible animal model for studying urinary incontinency disease due to incorrect sphincter function. Seven adult male dogs were used for this study.

Revascularization has been demonstrated to be clearly superior to medical therapy for significant unprotected left main coronary artery (LMCA) disease. Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) has a class 1 indication in both the American and European society guidelines for the treatment of LMCA disease. However, for the population of patients who are declined CABG after a heart team evaluation, percutaneous coronary interventional (PCI) may be an efficacious alternative.

Introduction And Importance: Leriche syndrome (LS), or aortoiliac occlusive disease, is a rare form of peripheral arterial disease leading to claudication, impotence, and diminished femoral pulses due to atheromatous obstruction of the infrarenal aorta and common iliac arteries. Early identification is crucial as untreated LS can result in severe complications. Treatment primarily involves surgical interventions, with endovascular options considered as alternatives.
