Rolo Santos, Catarina; Cunha e Sá, Diogo; R. Soares, Tony; Gimenez, José; Costa, Tiago; Cabral, Gonçalo; Tiago, José; Duarte, ArmandaObjective: The purpose of this article was to evaluate the clinical impact of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) severity in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) who underwent distal open revascularization. Methods: This study included a single-center retrospective analysis of diabetic patients with CLTI who underwent distal revascularization between January 2012 and December 2019. The sample was divid...
Infrapopliteal Bypass In Patients On Dialysis: Patency And Survival
Duarte, Armanda; Soares, Tony R.; Cabral, Gonçalo; Costa, Tiago; Tiago, José; Gimenez, José; Cunha e Sá, DiogoIntroduction 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...
Inverted T bypass: a solution for distal revascularization in the absence of an...
Duarte, Armanda; R. Soares, Tony; Cabral, Gonçalo; Costa, Tiago; Tiago, José; Gimenez, José; Cunha e Sá, DiogoIntroduction: 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,...
An Epithelioid Hemangioma Camouflaged As Radial Aneurysm
Ferreira, José; Tiago, José; Gerardo, Gonçalo; Soares, Tony; Cabral, Gonçalo; Costa, Tiago; Rossello, José; Cunha e Sá, Diogo; Gonçalo, GerardoEpithelioid 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...
RECURRENT VARICOSE VEINS FOLLOWING SMALL SAPHENOUS VEIN SURGERY: A 5-YEAR FOLLO...
Gonçalves Pereira, Rita; Tiago, José; Cabral, Gonçalo; Costa, Tiago; Rossello, Gimenez; Cunha e Sá, DiogoIntroduction: Chronic venous disease (CVD) of the lower limbs is a very prevalent medical condition with important socioeconomic repercussions. Small saphenous vein (SSV) incompetence, although less frequent than great saphenous vein (GSV) incompetence, presents a more challenging treatment, with higher rates of complication and recurrence. Objectives: To determine the incidence and associated risk factors of v...
ENTRAPMENT SYNDROME IN A NON-ATHLETIC PATIENT
Soares, Tony; Tiago, José; Manuel, Viviana; Martins, Carlos; Amorim, Pedro; Pedro, Luís MendesThe popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) is a major cause of claudication and acute ischemia of lower limb in young athletes without risk factors for atherosclerosis. We present a 39 years-old female patient with no relevant past history and no sport activity, admitted to our emergency department with acute disabling claudication in the right lower limb caused by retrogeniculate popliteal artery occlusio...
MAY-THURNER SYNDROME: A CASE REPORT AFTER TWO YEARS OF ENDOVASCULAR TREATMENT
Soares, Tony R.; Tiago, José; Manuel, Viviana; Amorim, Pedro; Leitão, João; Martins, Carlos; Pedro, Luís MendesPreviously considered a rare clinical condition, the development of more sophisticated imaging methods and endovascular intervention for deep venous thrombosis (DVT) led to a more frequent identification of May-Thurner Syndrome. We present a 68 years-old woman with history of chronic pain and edema in the left lower limb and a CT-scan finding of left common iliac vein compression. Phlebography confirmed a steno...
Complex aortic revascularization
Manuel, Viviana; Soares, Tony; Tiago, José; Martins, Pedro; Silva Nunes, José; Martins, Carlos; Fernandes e Fernandes, JoséIntroduction: In the event of aortoiliac occlusive disease when revascularization from the infrarenal aorta is contraindicated, the axillary-femoral bypass surgery is the most common option, but it shows substantially inferior patency rates. Material and methods: A retrospective analysis of six patients, submitted to surgery between 2003 and 2014, by the same surgical team, is presented. Results: All six patien...
