Covered versus uncovered stents for malignant superior vena cava syndrome: a sy...

INTRODUCTION: In recent years, endovascular stenting has emerged as a promising palliative therapeutic modality for carefully selected patients with Superior Vena Cava Syndrome (SVCS) secondary to intra-thoracic malignancies. However, a lack of data hinders procedure standardization, particularly regarding the dichotomy of covered versus uncovered stents. This study aims to compare the outcomes of malignant SVC...

The influence of treatment decision on compliance with medication for patients ...

INTRODUCTION: Treatment decision in patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis (ACS) is a matter of current debate with a recent shift towards isolated best medical treatment (BMT) as treatment of choice in most patients. However, poor medical compliance is one of the main constraints to the success of BMT. We hypothesized that more invasive treatment approaches can influence how patients perceive the s...

SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY PSEUDOANEURYSM RUPTURE: A RARE COMPLICATION OF PANCR...

Pseudoaneurysms after gastro-intestinal tract surgery are rare. Most of them occur after biliary tract and pancreatic surgery. They can lead to potentially serious consequences, such as rupture, hemorrhage and death. For these reasons, pseudoaneurysms should be diagnosed and treated as soon as possible. ; A formação de pseudoaneurismas após cirurgia gastrointestinal é rara. A maioria ocorre após cirugia do...

RADIAL PULSATILE MASS — APPEARANCES CAN BE DECEIVING

Adventitial 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...

BILATERAL ILIAC ANEURYSMS AND CONCOMITANT SEVERE MULTILEVEL OCCLUSIVE ARTERIAL ...

Introduction: Severe ilio-femoral occlusive disease can limit the endovascular treatment of aorto-iliac aneurysms. In high surgical risk patients, inventive and staged hybrid interventions can be the answer to achieve definitive treatment. Clinical Case: A 68-year-old male, with multiple comorbidities, presented with simultaneous occurrence of bilateral common iliac aneurysms and severe ilio-femoral occlusive d...

COMPLEX AORTOILIAC, PELVIC AND VISCERAL REVASCULARIZATION

Aortoiliac occlusive disease (AIOD) remains an area of debate concerning open and endovascular treatment options. A case of a 63-year old female is reported, with previous known vascular intermittent claudication, that presented in the emergency room with acute ischemia of the right lower limb with 24-hours of evolution. The computer tomographic angiography unveiled occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery, ...

ENDOVASCULAR MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOMES OF VISCERAL ARTERIAL ANEURYSMS — SINGLE CE...

Introduction: Over the past decade, endovascular treatment (EVT) is taking over visceral arterial aneurysms treatment considering its effectiveness, safety and minimal invasiveness. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated our department experience in visceral arterial aneurysms endovascular approach from 2009 to 2019. Results: From 2009 to 2019, nineteen visceral artery aneurysms were submitted to EVT (mean age 6...

LATE TYPE 1A ENDOLEAK AFTER EVAS: AN UNIQUE CHALLENGE

Endovascular aneurysm sealing (EVAS) using the Nellix system is an alternative method for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair. Type 1 endoleaks are not an uncommon complication following conventional endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR), occurring in up to 10 % of cases. The incidence of these endoleaks following Nellix EVAS was determined to be up to 3,1% in short-term follow-up. Early detection and c...
