Predictive factors of venous stenting failure: a systematic review
Semião, Ana Carolina; Nogueira, Clara; Coelho, Andreia; Peixoto, João; Fernandes, Luís; Machado, Marta; Basílio, Francisco; Canedo, AlexandraOBJECTIVE: Venous stenting of iliocaval obstructions has become a more frequent procedure over the last two decades. In-stent stenosis and thrombosis are potential complications, causing one of the main causes of symptoms recurrence and impacting quality of life. The aim of this review is to report on the impact of venous stent patency loss, as well on risk factors and management. METHODS: A systematic review w...
Aortoiliac occlusive disease: open or endo? – a narrative review
Semião, Ana Carolina; Nogueira, Clara; Coelho, Andreia; Peixoto, João; Fernandes, Luís; Machado, Marta; Basílio, Francisco; Canedo, AlexandraINTRODUCTION: Aortoiliac occlusive disease (AIOD) can be treated using either open surgical revascularization (OSR) or endovascular revascularization (ER). METHODS: A Medline search was performed in order to identify articles focused on the treatment of aortoiliac occlusive disease. Additional articles of scientific interest for the purpose of this non-systematic review were included by cross-referencing. RESUL...
Giant aneurysm originating from the costocervical trunk in a patient with aorti...
Semião, Ana Carolina; Nogueira, Clara; Peixoto, João; Canedo, AlexandraA 46-year-old male underwent previous endovascular repair for thoracic aortic coarctaction in 2017. Five years later he underwent an angio-computed tomography that revealed a 60mm x 53mm asymptomatic saccular costocervical artery aneurysm (A, yellow arrow). An angiography was subsequently performed, and selective catheterization was possible with a triaxial microcatheter system (B, circle defining the aneurysm ...
RIGHT AORTIC ARCH ASSOCIATED WITH AGENESIS OF THE LEFT INTERNAL CAROTID ARTERY ...
Augusto, Rita; Coelho, Nuno; Semião, Ana Carolina; Brandão, Daniel; Canedo, AlexandraIntroduction: A right aortic arch and agenesis of internal carotid artery (ICA) are both extremely rare vascular devel- opment anomalies. Etiology of the both anomalies might be associated with the abnormal regression of the dorsal aorta. Most cases of ICA are asymptomatic due to sufficient collateral circulation and it is usually an incident finding on head and neck imaging by color Doppler ultrasonography, co...
RADIAL PULSATILE MASS — APPEARANCES CAN BE DECEIVING
Semião, Ana Carolina; Nogueira, Clara; Coelho, Andreia; Gouveia, Ricardo; Augusto, Rita; Coelho, Nuno; Pinto, Evelise; Ribeiro, João; Peixoto, JoãoAdventitial cystic disease (ACD) is a rare condition. It affects mostly the popliteal artery, with few cases reported affecting the radial artery. This condition is characterized by accumulation of mucinous content at the adventitious layer. ; A doença quística da adventícia é uma condição rara. Afecta sobretudo a artéria poplítea, com poucos casos relatados que afectem a artéria radial. Esta doença é car...
TRAUMATIC POPLITEAL ARTERY INJURY – A RARE LESION THAT CAN'T BE MISSED
Machado, Marta; Coelho, Nuno; Maximiano, Pedro; Pinto, Evelise; Semião, Ana Carolina; Peixoto, João; Fernandes, Luís; Brandão, Pedro; Canedo, AlexandraIntroduction: Traumatic popliteal artery injury is a rare clinical entity, but it is the most common cause of amputation in injured extremities.The aim of this study was to report the incidence of popliteal artery injury after knee trauma and report therapeutic management and results. Methods and material: ICD-10/ ICD-9 codes (S85.0/904.41; S83.1/836.5; S83.4; S83.5; S72,4/821.2; S82,1/823.0) were used to ident...
ARTERIAL VASCULAR COMPLICATIONS IN PERIPHERAL VENOARTERIAL EXTRACORPOREAL MEMBR...
Augusto, Rita; Passos Silva, Marisa; Campos, Jacinta; Coelho, Andreia; Coelho, Nuno; Semião, Ana Carolina; Brandão, Daniel; Canedo, AlexandraIntroduction: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has evolved as a life-saving measure for patients requiring emergent support of respiratory and cardiac function. The femoral artery is the standard site for vascular access when initiating adult venoarterial (VA) ECMO. Cannulation-related complications are a known source of morbidity and it has been speculated that patients undergoing ECMO via femoral ar...
POST-EVAR LIMB GRAFT KINKING — INTRA-OPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS
Coelho, Andreia; Lobo, Miguel; Nogueira, Clara; Campos, Jacinta; Augusto, Rita; Coelho, Nuno; Semião, Ana Carolina; Ribeiro, João PedroIntroduction: Endograft limb kinking remains one of the major causes of secondary interventions and rehospitalisation after Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). However, the importance of improving limb patency has received little focus. Endograft limb kinking also remains ill-defined, with considerable variability in the literature concerning its clinical presentation and natural history. The purpose of this p...
RETROGRADE APPROACH: GOING FURTHER IN ENDOVASCULAR TECHNIQUES DEDICATED TO CRIT...
Augusto, Rita; Campos, Jacinta; Coelho, Andreia; Coelho, Nuno; Pinto, Evelise; Semião, Ana Carolina; Ribeiro, João; Peixoto, João; Brandão, DanielIntroduction: Endovascular techniques have been revolutionizing the revascularization of patients with chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI), showing consistently high limb salvage rates. However, endovascular recanalization of infrapopliteal occlusive disease can be technically demanding and the failure rate for these types of lesions is about 20%. In that case, an alternative vascular access may be require...
RUPTURED IDIOPATHIC SPLENIC ARTERY PSEUDOANEURYSM — A CASE REPORT AND LITERATUR...
Coelho, Andreia; Brandão, Daniel; Lobo, Miguel; Campos, Jacinta; Augusto, Rita; Coelho, Nuno; Semião, Ana Carolina; Ribeiro, João PedroIntroduction: Splenic artery pseudoaneurysms (SAP) represent a rare clinical entity typically caused by sequelae of pancreatitis or abdominal trauma. Unprovoked, spontaneous SAP are exceedingly rare, with only two other case reports in the literature up to date. In this paper we pretend to present a case of a ruptured idiopathic SAP successfully treated endovascularly.Methods: Relevant medical da...
