The study of the influence of different sporting activities on peripheral venous pathology should be based on venous physiology and precise understanding of the technology of each sport (study of the movements, positions, and muscles brought into play, the rhythm, the material employed, the risks run). At the conclusion of a long study on sportsmen of both average and highly competitive ability, and on yogis, the author was able, by means of a simple methodology applicable to all physical activity, to classify the principal sports into two categories: those which improve and those which work against the peripheral venous circulation. However he does not recommend a complete ban on the harmful sports in highly motivated patients, but rather that they should counter the disadvantages by performing antagonistic movements.

Sotos syndrome is a genetic disorder characterized by distinct facial features, intellectual disability, and overgrowth. In this case, a patient with Sotos syndrome presented with severe intellectual disability, for which general anesthesia was initially considered. However, at the request of the patient's guardian, the treatment was performed under intravenous sedation.

Background: Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) or syndrome (CAS) can be particularly challenging when autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is needed. Standard peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection and manipulation involve ex vivo blood manipulations at lower than body temperature, predisposing to agglutination during graft collection, handling, processing, and infusion.

Study Design And Methods: We describe the first case of ASCT for relapsing lymphoma in a patient with high-titer CAD requiring anti-complement therapy and chronic transfusion.

This case report describes an otherwise healthy 43-year-old female who presented with severe pain, foot drop, and critical limb ischemia to her left foot caused by thrombosis of a peripheral artery secondary to antiphospholipid syndrome. Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmune disease that frequently manifests as recurrent arterial and/or venous thrombotic events, ischemic strokes, and miscarriages. Antiphospholipid syndrome affecting primarily the arteries is less common as compared to venous thrombosis.

Background: Brachiocephalic fistula (BCF) and brachiobasilic fistula (BBF) are autogenous fistulas created in the arm for hemodialysis access. However, despite the differences in anatomy and surgical technique, the existing literature shows no significant statistical difference between the maturation, patency, or complications. We analyzed the outcomes of these two types of arteriovenous fistulas in our subgroup of the Indian population.

Background: In general, it is relatively easy to remove peripherally inserted central venous catheter (PICC) by gentle traction without any complications. However, the removal of PICC can be challenging occasionally. If the standard interventions fail to remove the catheter, there are no clear recommendations about what to do.
