BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) using upper and lower somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) is an established technique used to predict and prevent neurologic injury during intracranial tumor resections. Endoscopic port surgery (EPS) is a minimally-invasive approach to deep intraparenchymal and intraventricular brain tumors. The authors intended to e...

peripherally inserted venous ports fracture with embolization in patients who received chemotherapy is a serious and rare complication,and few cases have been reported in children. we report a successful endovascular technique using a snare for retrieving broken peripherally inserted venous ports in a child for chemotherapy. catheter fragments may cause complications such as cardiac perforation...

BACKGROUND : In November 2005, a new automated distal anastomotic device (C-Port) for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was cleared by the FDA for use in the United States. This study represents a prospective evaluation of our early experience using the device with graft patency assessment determined by 64 slice multidetector row computed tomography angiography (64CT).
