Treatment of Postcatheterisation False Aneurysms: Ultrasound-guided Compression vs Ultrasound-guided Thrombin Injection

A comparison of ultrasound guided corticosteroid injection vs ozone injection in grade 3 knee osteoarthritis

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease that can cause pain and limited function. One of the non-surgical treatments is intra-articular ozone injection. This study aimed to compare the effect of ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injection with ozone injection in patients with grade 3 osteoarthritis of the knee. Methods: This randomized, double-blind, clinical trial was carried...

Ultrasound-guided thrombin injection for the treatment of postcatheterization pseudoaneurysms.

BACKGROUND This prospective study was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of using bovine thrombin injection to treat pseudoaneurysms. METHODS AND RESULTS From April 1998 through December 1999, 70 pseudoaneurysm were injected with bovine thrombin under the guidance of color duplex ultrasound. The most superficial pseudoaneurysm chamber was entered with a 1.5-inch, 19- to 22-gauge or sp...

Percutaneous ultrasound-guided thrombin injection for the treatment of pseudoaneurysms.

Ultrasound-guided percutaneous periarterial thrombin injection for paracentesis-related hemoperitoneum

Paracentesis is a common procedure used in the diagnostic evaluation of peritoneal fluid as well as the therapeutic removal of high-volume ascites. Although generally regarded as a safe procedure, complications may arise from arterial injury, including hematomas and pseudoaneurysms. Transcatheter embolization and surgery are first-line interventions for injuries refractory to conservative manag...

Ultrasound Guided Hydrostatic Treatment of Meconium Ileus; another Indication for Ultrasound Based Approach to Bowel Obstruction
