The extent of atherosclerotic lesions in crural arteries predicts survival of patients with lower limb peripheral artery disease: A new classification of crural atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Several studies report correlation of ankle brachial index (ABI) values and mortality. However, no studies exist on the predictive value of anatomical distribution of atherosclerotic lesions and the extent of atherosclerosis at defined arterial segments on life expectancy. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the significance of both extent and localisation of athero...
متن کاملSurgical revascularization of posterior coronary arteries without cardiopulmonary bypass.
OBJECTIVE To assess the results observed during the early postoperative period in patients who had the posterior coronary arteries revascularized without cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), in regard to the following parameters: age, sex, bypass grafts types, morbidity and mortality. METHODS From January 1995 to June 1998, 673 patients underwent myocardial revascularization (MR). Of this total, 607...
متن کاملInvestigations of a thermosensitive gel to temporarily occlude crural arteries in femoro-distal bypass surgery.
OBJECTIVES Long occlusions in calcified crural arteries are a major cause of endovascular technical failure in patients with critical limb ischaemia. Therefore, distal bypasses are mainly performed in patients with heavily calcified arteries and with consequently delicate clamping. A new reverse thermosensitive polymer (RTP) is an alternative option to occlude target vessels. The aim of the stu...
متن کاملCoronary Revascularization Using Bilateral Internal Thoracic Arteries: Safe with Skeletonization?
Substantial evidence exists to support a long-term survival benefit with bilateral internal thoracic artery (BITA) revascularization in coronary artery bypass grafting. However, this technique remains grossly underutilized worldwide and especially in the United States. In this review, we discuss evidence for the advantages of BITA grafting as well as the associated the risk of sternal wound com...
متن کاملLateral crural steal and lateral crural overlay: an objective evaluation.
OBJECTIVE To assess objectively the effect of 2 cartilage-modifying techniques, lateral crural steal (LCS) and lateral crural overlay (LCO), on the degree of nasal tip projection and rotation. DESIGN A prospective trial using computer imaging techniques for assessment. SETTINGS Half of the patients were seen at a university hospital and the other half at a private practice. PATIENTS A sel...
