Recanalization of chronic total ilio-caval occlusion

Memórias da Academia das Ciências de Lisboa

Os eventos sísmicos constituem um desafio significativo para a preservação do Património Cultural Construído (PCC). A avaliação da sua vulnerabilidade sísmica requer uma abordagem interdisciplinar, integrando o conhecimento histórico e material, a caracterização geométrica, a análise estrutural e a conceção de intervenções de reforço adequadas. Este estudo aplica essa abordagem a edifícios residenciais antigos ...

Unfractionated Heparin in Ruptured Aortic Aneurysms – Narrative Review

INTRODUCTION: Portuguese estimates point out that nearly 20% of aortic aneurysms are treated in a ruptured setting, with in-hospital mortality reaching up to 50%. Although unfractionated heparin (UFH) is routine during elective surgery, this technical point is debatable when treating ruptured aneurysms. The authors aimed to review the literature on the topic of intraoperative heparinization with UFH within the ...

Giant Renal Tumor with Inferior Vena Cava Thrombus – a Case Report

INTRODUCTION: Vascular migration and venous tumor thrombus are infrequent but unique aspects of renal cell carcinoma, and these features have signifcant therapeutic and prognostic implications. We report a case of renal neoplasm with a vena cava tumor thrombus treated with surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy. CASE REPORT: A 53-year-old, otherwise healthy woman presented to the emergency department due ...

Diagnosis and Predictors of Post-Implantation Syndrome Following Endovascular R...

INTRODUCTION: After endovascular aortic repair (EVAR), many patients develop a systemic inflammatory response called post-implantation syndrome (PIS). AAA and procedure-related characteristics have been linked with increased odds of developing this syndrome. Similarly, some short- and long-term consequences have been associated with PIS. This study aims to review the literature on the diagnosis and predictors o...

Fenestrated Physician-Modified Endografts (PMEGs) - a Viable Option for Urgent ...

INTRODUCTION: Fenestrated and branched stent graft technology has come a long way over the past few years, enabling the treatment of complex juxtarenal aneurysms, thoracoabdominal aneurysms, and arch pathologies. Many innovations have been developed, namely device and delivery optimization and technical tricks. These concepts have proven to work well when there is sufficient time to plan and manufacture a custo...
