Thrombin obliteration of subclavian artery aneurysm with intravascular balloon protection
نویسندگان
چکیده
A rare case of a 56-year-old man with posttraumatic false aneurysm of the right subclavian artery is presented. He was admitted to hospital due to pain in the shoulder. The diagnosis was made upon ultrasonography and computed tomography (CT) results. With ultrasound guidance, the aneurysm was punctured and injected with bovine thrombin (Biotrombina 400u, Biomed). During the injection, the aneurysm neck was occluded by an endovascular balloon placed in the subclavian artery. Complete aneurysm embolisation was confirmed by ultrasound and CT studies. The postoperative course was complicated by Horner's syndrome which resolved completely within 3 weeks. The procedure technique is described in detail.

متن کاملEndovascular Stenting under Cardiac and Cerebral Protection for Subclavian Steal after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Due to Right Subclavian Artery Origin Stenosis
Coronary-subclavian steal (CSS) can occur after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using the internal thoracic artery (ITA). Subclavian artery (SA) stenosis proximal to the ITA graft causes CSS. We describe a technique for cardiac and cerebral protection during endovascular stenting for CSS due to right SA origin stenosis after CABG. A 64-year-old man with a history of CABG using the right ...

This article describes the surgical techniques demonstrated in our video, “Total arch replacement (TAR) with selective antegrade cerebral perfusion (SACP) and mild hypothermic circulatory arrest” (Video 1). The aortic arch is the most common location for the development of aortic aneurysms. These aneurysms are often located close to the brachiocephalic vessels, and atheromatous plaque and throm...
