Infrapopliteal Bypass In Patients On Dialysis: Patency And Survival

Introduction Portugal has one of the highest prevalence of patients on a regular dialysis program. This population has a higher incidence of peripheral arterial disease with higher rates of postoperative morbidity and mortality. Our goal was to compare outcomes between dialysis and non-dialysis patients with chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI) submitted to infrapopliteal bypass. Materials and Methods A ret...

Ultra-distal revascularization in chronic limb threatening ischaemia: results a...

INTRODUCTION: The progression of diabetes mellitus to a global epidemic resulted in an increased prevalence of tibioperoneal disease in chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI). Distal disease still poses an enormous challenge to vascular surgeons. Crural angioplasty was formerly restricted to patients with short stenotic lesions or to high-risk patients for bypass surgery. Nevertheless, endovascular treatment ...

Inverted T bypass: a solution for distal revascularization in the absence of an...

Introduction: Peripheral arterial disease has become a worldwide problem, with chronic limb-threatening ischemia(CLTI) being its most extreme manifestation. Recently, endovascular strategies evolved and became the first approach in many revascularization procedures. However, infrapopliteal (IP) disease is still a therapeutic challange.1–3 This study aims to present a surgical technique, named inverted T bypass,...

Results of the first 1000 infra-renal aortic aneurysms included in the Portugue...

INTRODUCTION: The Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) module of the Portuguese National Vascular Registry (RNPV) is a prospective, voluntary, population-based registry, that encompasses more than 90% of portuguese vascular departments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of the first 1000 infra-renal AAA included in the Portuguese RNPV. METHODS: Data were collected from November 2019 to December 2022 ...

An Epithelioid Hemangioma Camouflaged As Radial Aneurysm

Epithelioid hemangioma (EH) is an uncommon benign vascular lesion usually present as subcutaneous nodules in the head and neck area. Sometimes, these lesions can occur in the peripheral arteries, and when they do, they can be mistaken for aneurysmal dilatations of that respective vessel. We report a case of a 43-year-old male who underwent surgical recession of a radial aneurysm, which after anatomopathological...
