A linear array 5 mHz ultrasonic scanner was used to diagnose aorto-iliac thrombosis in a 3 year old Standardbred gelding. There are no reports in the literature of utilization of ultrasonography for visualization of an aortic thrombus. The technique is fairly non-invasive, requiring only a rectal examination with a linear array probe. Arteriography is the only other method described for actual visualization of a thrombus. This procedure is technically difficult and highly invasive.

Background: Endovascular intervention by means of thrombolysis is emerging as a promising management of Acute Aortic Occlusion (AAO). This study aims to evaluate the outcomes of endovascular thrombectomy for AAO cases in a single-center tertiary hospital in Indonesia.
Methods: We review retrospectively AAO patients treated by Rheolytic thrombectomy ± stenting or TEVAR at our referral center from 2011 to 2024.
Introduction: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a critical concern, particularly in the context of an aging population and escalating risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, and smoking. PAD leads to significant morbidity and disability, imposing considerable healthcare and economic burdens. A detailed understanding of the functional outcomes of revascularization is essential as it influences the choice of therapeutic strategies.

Introduction: The purpose of this study is to report incidence, indications, and outcomes of early open conversions (EOC) after endovascular aortic repair (EVAR), defined as surgical conversion performed within 30 days from the initial EVAR.
Evidence Aquisition: A systematic review of the literature was performed (database searched: PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library; last search April 2023). Articles reporting EOC after EVAR comprising at least five patients were included.

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the experience of our center and assess the efficacy of sac filling with fibrin sealant (FS) and gentamicin after endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) in patients with Brucella-related aorto-iliac artery aneurysms.
Materials And Methods: All patients who received sac filling with FS and gentamicin after EVAR for Brucella-related aorto-iliac artery aneurysms between March 2019 and September 2022 were reviewed. Before and after sac filling with FS and gentamicin, aneurysm sac thrombosis and endoleak were evaluated using a preloaded catheter to monitor immediate repair outcome.

Objective: We describe and analyze outcomes of a novel extra-anatomical paracolic gutter routing technique for surgical repair of aorto-iliac infections.
Methods: A double-center, observational, cohort study of all consecutive patients with aorto-iliac infections treated using extra-anatomical paracolic gutter technique. Between May 2015 and December 2022, six patients with aorto-iliac infections were treated with the paracolic gutter routing technique.
