Treatment of visceral artery aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms with the use of cerebral flow diverting stents: initial experience Tập 3 Số 1 - 2020
Paolo Rabuffi, Antonio Bruni, Enzo Gabriele Maria Antonuccio, Cesare Ambrogi, Simone Vagnarelli
Abstract Background Flow-diverter stents (FDS) are designed to maintain laminar
flow in the parent artery and sidebranches and to promote thrombosis of the
aneurysm. Although these devices were developed for use in intracranial
circulation, FDS could be employed to treat aneurysms regardless of their
location, when anatomic factors may limit the efficacy of classic endovascular
techniques. The obj... hiện toàn bộ
Endotension: twenty years of a controversial term - 2021
Álvaro Torres-Blanco, M. Miralles-Hernández
AbstractUse of the term endotension in the treatment of aortic aneurysm is

which there is an enlargement of the aneurysm sac after endovascular repair
without a demonstrable endoleak. The term was established with the aim of
transmitting the possibility of causes other than pressure applying stress to
the aneurysm wal... hiện toàn bộ
Management and endovascular therapy of ureteroarterial fistulas: experience from a single center and review of the literature - 2021
Björn Simon, Jakob Neubauer, Martin Schoenthaler, Simon Hein, Fabian Bamberg, Lars Maruschke
Abstract Background Ureteroarterial fistula (UAF) is a rare but potentially life
threatening disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of
endovascular therapy for UAF treatment. Methods This retrospective case series
evaluates a single center experience of percutaneous stent graft (SG)
angioplasty and/or coil embolization for UAF. Patient follow-up included

Abstract Background Interventional radiology (IR) is underrepresented in
undergraduate medical curricula across Europe. By continuing to challenge the
boundaries of IR, a rise in the demand for radiologists has been inevitable – a
trend not met by a corresponding rise in the supply of radiologists. On tracing
the roots of this shortage, lack of awareness of the specialty within medical
trainees co... hiện toàn bộ
