What is hidden behind persistent Inferior vena cava thrombosis?

BACKGROUND: Primary tumors of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are rare. They most commonly arise from the smooth muscle of the IVC walls, known as leiomyomas. CASE REPORT: A 49-year-old male patient presented to the emergency department with right leg swelling. He had undergone varicose vein extraction surgery one month before presentation. Doppler ultrasound revealed thrombosis of the right iliac and femoral vein...

Characterization of Tableware from Fábrica de Loiça de Sacavém—Linking Analytic...

Fábrica de Loiça de Sacavém (ca. 1858–1994) was among the first to produce white earthenware in Portugal, becoming one of the country’s leading ceramic manufacturers during the late 19th to early 20th centuries. Research on white earthenware has accompanied the growing interest in post-industrial archaeology but is still poorly explored compared to more ancient ceramic productions. This study focused on the cer...

Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva: A Case Report

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare autosomal dominant disease, related to the ACVR1/ALK2 gene mutation that activates the aberrant formation of bone tissue. It is characterized by a gradual limitation of the range of joint movement due to the heterotopic osteogenesis in the connective tissue. As the disease progresses, difficulty in global mobility increases, restricting the expandability of ...

Parallel grafting technique for a complex zone 6 aortic pseudoaneurysm treatment

INTRODUCTION: Endovascular reconstruction of the thoracoabdominal aorta is highly complex due to the need to preserve the main visceral branches. Optimal treatment with fenestrated and branched aneurysm aortic repair (F/B-EVAR) is usually not possible in urgent situations. Parallel grafting technique as an “off-the-shelf” solution have been described with good short and medium-term results. CASE REPORT: A 44-ye...

ChEVAR technique for emergent aneurysm repair - a retrospective case series

INTRODUCTION: Chimney EVAR (ChEVAR) for the treatment of complex abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) has been largely relegated for when fenestrated endografts are unavailable, especially due to durability concerns. However, the off-the-shelf nature of ChEVAR makes it a good option for emergent AAA repair. We report our institutional experience in ChEVAR in an urgent setting.METHODS: ChEVAR procedures were collecte...

Fichas de Espécies - Aves

No Arquipélago dos Açores, até à data, foram registadas cerca de 420 espécies de aves: entre residentes/nidificantes, migradores / invernantes regulares e ocasionais. Este número pode ser considerado elevado, se compararmos com o número total de espécies registado em Portugal Continental, sobretudo se tivermos em consideração que grande parte dos avistamentos compilados abrangem um espaço temporal de pouco mais...
