BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Aneurysm embolization is not without risk: numerous technical aspects are considered before, during, and after the procedure. The purpose of this study was to show the position of the detachment zone of a Guglielmi detachable coil (GDC) with respect to the catheter tip for various microcatheters and marker alignments. METHODS Six types of commonly used microcatheters we...

The video describes backtable modification of off-the-shelf bifurcated aortic endograft using scallop and fenestrations, which allows urgent endovascular solutions in treating patients with juxtarenal aneurysms. fenestrations are accessed via upper extremity access. technique may be modified to accommodate two or three the extend proximal seal zone. eyJraWQiOiI4ZjUxYWNhY2IzYjhiNjNlNzFlYmIzYWFmY...

The sub trochanteric zone of the femur is the area extending up till 5 cm distally from the inferior border of the lesser trochanter or the junction of the proximal third and middle third of the femoral shaft. Fracture patterns presenting major displacement in this area are considered sub trochanteric fractures despite their proximal or distal extension. 1 High biomechanical stress concentratio...

We hypothesized that the endogenous coronary vasodilator adenosine may reduce infarct size by progressively increasing reflow in a preparation of coronary occlusion-reperfusion. After 90 min of proximal left anterior descending artery occlusion, 20 dogs were randomized to blood reperfusion with (n = 10) or without (n = 10) adenosine into the proximal left anterior descending vessel at 3.75 mg/m...

INTRODUCTION The purpose of the current study was to investigate the reaction of the femur to the implantation of the MiniHipTM in terms of: (1) bone density change during one year; (2) correlations between stem length, CCD (caput-collum-diaphyseal), femoral offset, T-value, and bone density; (3) other co-variables that influence the change of bone density. PATIENTS AND METHODS MiniHipTM impl...
