After vascular puncture and catheterization, arteries can have many complications that impede blood flow such as vasospasm, thrombosis, and emboli generation, among other complications. Treatment depends on severity of ischemic symptoms and can range from as mild as applying local heat packs to surgical thrombectomy. We present a case of digital ischemia secondary to vascular puncture that was successfully treated with a supraclavicular nerve block, resulting in the vascular surgery team canceling an emergent surgery.

Introduction: The venous outflow profile (VOP) is a crucial yet often overlooked aspect affecting stroke outcomes. It plays a major role in the physiopathology of acute cerebral ischemia, as it accounts for both the upstream arterial collaterals and cerebral microperfusion. This enables it to circumvent the limitations of various arterial collateral evaluation systems, which often fail to consider impaired autoregulation and its impact on cerebral blood flow at the microcirculatory levels.

A 28-year-old male presented to his physician with a chief complaint of fever and cough. Contrastenhanced computed tomography revealed a 17×16×8 cm heterogeneous tumor in the anterior mediastinum, as well as right heart and inferior vena cava compression due to the tumor. He was referred to our hospital for close examination and treatment.

Article Synopsis
- Acute appendicitis and acute cholecystitis often occur together, and surgical management is effective for both conditions when they present simultaneously.
- A 30-year-old female patient presented with abdominal pain and underwent imaging that confirmed the diagnoses, leading to a successful surgical intervention combining cholecystectomy and appendectomy.
- The case underscores the importance of recognizing the possibility of both conditions occurring together and utilizing established management guidelines for effective treatment.

The absence or dysplasia of the iliac artery(IA) is an exceedingly rare condition, with limited cases documented in the literature. In this report, we present a case of hypoplasia of the right external iliac artery (EIA) in a 69-year-old male patient. The patient presented with right lower abdominal pain attributed to an aneurysm of the right internal iliac artery (IIA), yet notably, there was no evidence of lower limb ischemia at the time of consultation.
