Cardiac Intensive Care Unit, Open Heart, Tbilisi, GEO.
Article Synopsis
- A 69-year-old woman with a history of heart issues was scheduled for a cardioverter-defibrillator implantation, but faced complications during the procedure.
- The procedure was complicated by a thrombus obstruction in the left subclavian vein and an acute angling issue in the right subclavian vein, making it difficult to place the leads.
- This case highlights the need for thorough preoperative planning and consideration of alternative strategies when dealing with complex vascular anatomies.
Article Synopsis
- The study aims to explore the long-term impacts of COVID-19 on key vascular structures and clinical outcomes in individuals who had the virus.
- Conducted at a post-COVID-19 clinic, the trial involved 72 post-COVID patients and 11 control participants, with follow-up assessments at 3, 6, and 12 months post-diagnosis.
- Results indicated increased median intima-media thickness (IMT) in COVID-19 patients compared to controls, changes in blood cell markers and responses based on severity of infection, but no instances of deep vein thrombosis were found.

Heart and Lung Center, Cardiology, Helsinki University Hospital and University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland.
Article Synopsis
- Factor Xa inhibitors are commonly used to treat venous thromboembolism (VTE), but a small percentage of patients experience treatment failure, prompting this study to explore the causes of recurrent VTE in those receiving FXaIs.
- The study included ten patients, mostly young adults with significant underlying VTE risk factors despite initial assessments suggesting unprovoked VTE, highlighting conditions like thoracic outlet syndrome contributing to their risks.
- Results indicated that treatment failure occurred within a few months, often leading to serious complications like chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, and emphasized the importance of tailored treatment strategies and careful risk evaluation for patients with recurrent VTE.

Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, MA. Electronic address:
Article Synopsis
- Venous thoracic outlet syndrome (vTOS) involves the compression of the subclavian vein, leading to potential vein thrombosis, with treatment primarily focusing on thoracic outlet decompression and rib resection.
- A study conducted on 76 patients treated for vTOS from 2007 to 2022 revealed that the majority presented with swelling and had a high incidence of deep vein thrombosis, often requiring anticoagulation before surgery.
- Most surgeries involved rib resection through the infraclavicular approach, with a low rate of complications and no perioperative mortality, although some patients did experience bleeding complications post-surgery.
