INTRODUCTION The rupture of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm is a surgical emergency condition with a high rate of mortality before the patients arrive at hospital. The signs and symptoms of abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture into the retroperitoneal cavity are pulsatile mass, abdominal pain, hypotension and shock, but sometimes silent symptoms also hide a dangerous and life threatening cond...

Cerebral aneurysms are well known to be associated with cardiac myxomas. The mechanism of cerebral aneurysm formation remains to be elucidated. Embolization of tumor particles in the vessel wall has been proposed as the likely mechanism for aneurysm formation. Recent reports suggest interleukin-6 (IL-6) may play a role as well. We describe a patient who presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage se...

Iliac arteriovenous fistula is a rare but severe complication of iliac artery aneurysm. We present a case of iliac arteriovenous fistula concomitant with iliac artery aneurysm, which was preoperatively diagnosed by ultrasonography (USG) and successfully treated with emergent surgery. An 84-year-old female admitted to our hospital complaining of a sudden onset of right leg edema and dyspnea. Phy...

ObjectiveWe evaluated the early and midterm outcomes of Incraft (Cordis Corp, Bridgewater, NJ) ultra-low-profile endograft by analyzing data from Triveneto Registry (TIR).MethodsTIR is an independent multicenter cohort registry 10 vascular surgery units in area (Northeast Italy). A prospective analysis patients electively treated with September 2014 to June 2019 was performed. The main were tec...

Vein of Galen aneurysm is a rare congenital anomaly, originated from a defect in fusion of internal cerebral veins. Due to low resistance, it produces high debit cardiac insufficiency. It constitutes 1% of all intracranial vascular malformations. Prognosis depends on patient's age when the manifestation occurs and aneurysm size. The two reported cases are about fetal prenatal diagnosis of vein ...

The most important goal of a vascular neurosurgeon during an intracranial aneurysm clipping is achieving complete exclusion of the aneurysm from the circulation with preservation of blood flow distal to the aneurysm. Occlusion of the parent vessel or distal branches due to improper clip application has been a significant factor in the poor outcome. Similarly, incomplete clipping of an aneurysm ...

The progression of a cerebral aneurysm involves degenerative arterial wall remodeling. Various hemodynamic parameters are suspected to be major mechanical factors related to the genesis and progression of vascular diseases. Flow alterations caused by the insertion of coils and stents for interventional aneurysm treatment may affect the aneurysm embolization process. Therefore, knowledge of hemo...

INTRODUCTION Intracranial dissecting aneurysms have been increased due to recent advancements in diagnostic imaging. However there have been little article with subarachnoid hemorrhage and cerebral infarction occurring almost at the same time. We performed the surgical treatment and obtained good result. CASE PRESENTATION A 47-year-old male presented to our hospital with chief complaints of s...

Patient records in 36 consecutively identified patients with typical echocardiographic findings of atrial septal aneurysm were reviewed. Ten of the 36 (28%) had cerebrovascular events. Of these 10, 5 had completed strokes of definite embolic origin on the basis of clinical, angiographic, and computed tomographic findings; 2 had transient ischemic attacks of probable embolic origin. One of the 3...
