Factors Influencing the Incidence of Endovenous Heat-Induced Thrombosis (EHIT) Tập 47 Số 3 - Trang 207-212 - 2013
Soo J. Rhee, Nancy L. Cantelmo, Mark F. Conrad, Julianne Stoughton
Introduction: Extension of thrombus from the great saphenous vein into the common femoral vein can be an early postprocedural complication of endothermal ablation (ETA). Methods: A retrospective review was performed over a 3-year period. Intraprocedural ultrasound images demonstrating the dist...... hiện toàn bộ Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Revascularization for Limb Salvage Tập 48 Số 5-6 - Trang 402-405 - 2014

Introduction: Previous reports have suggested that black patients have a higher rate of major lower extremity amputation and a lower rate of revascularization for limb salvage when compared to white patients. Objective: We undertook this study to determine the extent of this ethnic disparity i...... hiện toàn bộ The Risks of Celiac Artery Coverage During Endoluminal Repair of Thoracic and Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysms Tập 43 Số 1 - Trang 51-60 - 2009

The risks of purposeful celiac artery coverage during endovascular thoracic aortic aneurysm repair (TEVAR) to obtain an adequate distal landing zone have received scant scientific attention. Patients undergoing TEVAR at 6 tertiary centers from January 2000 to June 2007 were identified (n = 434); cases requiring celiac artery exclusion (n = 19; 4.4% of the total) were analyzed. The mean fo...... hiện toàn bộ Diabetes Mellitus and Aortic Aneurysm Rupture Tập 48 Số 1 - Trang 45-50 - 2014

Introduction: Recent reports suggest that diabetic patients are relatively unlikely to have abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). This retrospective study assesses the relationship between diabetes mellitus (DM) and aortic aneurysm rupture. Methods: Patients with a diagnosis of any aortic aneurys...... hiện toàn bộ Limb Salvage Angioplasty in Poor Surgical Candidates Tập 37 Số 2 - Trang 99-104 - 2003
Girma Tefera, William D. Turnipseed, Timothy E. Tanke
This study was conducted to evaluate the potential for percutaneous catheter based limb salvage angioplasty in patients who have no surgical bypass option. Twenty patients, 12 males and 8 females, with end-stage limb ischemia (Rutherford category 4 and 5) were treated with balloon angioplasty. Antegrade femoral access, coronary guidewire, and balloons were used. The aim of intervention wa...... hiện toàn bộ Diagnosing Common Carotid Artery Agenesis Using Duplex Ultrasound Tập 45 Số 8 - Trang 727-732 - 2011

The complete absence of a common carotid artery, also known as common carotid artery (CCA) agenesis, is a well-described yet extremely rare congenital anomaly. Most carotid system anomalies are related to origins of the external or internal carotid arteries. All such anomalies are typically asymptomatic unless associated with a concomitant arterial lesion that results in a workup for symp...... hiện toàn bộ
