Objective: To evaluate the changes in venous system during pregnancy and childbirth pregnant postpartum women without previous disease. Methods: This is an observational, analytical prospective cohort study carried out from May 2021 to October 2021, undergoing caesarean section on their first postoperative day, with duplex mapping being performed assess diameter reflux of great small saphenous ...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to review our experience with combined injuries to the femoral artery and vein, and to analyze the role of venous repair. Methodology: Thirty two patients with penetrating injuries of the both femoral artery and vein underwent surgical management at our hospital from May 1999 to August 2009. Primaryxvascular repair was carried out whenever possible; if not ...

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...

INTRODUCTION Intravascular cooling and warming catheters are among a range of proliferating technologies used for temperature control. Complications related to the use of these devices are few, and no definitive evidence has been presented thus far to indicate any differences in complication rates between these balloon catheters and other central vein catheters. We report two cases of cooling a...

The incidence of vascular injuries associated with total hip arthroplasty (THA) is low. However, several vascular structures are at risk of injury within the pelvis. These include the external iliac, femoral, and obturator vessels. Both reaming of the acetabulum and drilling of the acetabular screw holes may place these structures at risk. If left untreated, injuries to these vessels may be ass...

A 73-yr-old male with atrial fibrillation presented for pulmonary vein mapping and isolation. Following uneventful tracheal intubation, femoral vein catheters and a 7-Fr right internal jugular vein (IJV) catheter were placed with ultrasound guidance. After the seven-hour procedure, a large right neck hematoma was apparent. Ultrasound examination showed no compromise of the IJV or carotid artery...

Recently, many interventional centres have adopted intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) in preference to transoesophageal echocardiography to guide percutaneous patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure. ICE obviates the need for general anaesthesia, facilitating earlier hospital discharge, and gives superior imaging capability, particularly of the inferior interatrial septum. 2 The advent of real-time...

A coronary stent may be lost in the peripheral or visceral arterial system with an incidence ranging from 0.9 to 8.4%, however, a limb or organ ischemia after stent migration is very uncommon. We report the case of an 83-year-old man who underwent coronary artery stenting at our Hospital's Cardiological Department. During this difficult procedure, due to the critical stenosis of the circumflex ...

To investigate adrenergic control of blood vessels during aging, rats aged 6, 12, 20, and 27 months were studied using in vitro techniques. Accumulation of [3H]norepinephrine, one index of adrenergic nerve density, did not alter with age in the femoral or renal arteries or renal vein. In the femoral vein [3H]norepinephrine accumulation was greater at 6 and 27 months of age. Norepinephrine sensi...

the use of diagnostic and therapeutic methods for assessing pulmonary vein due to its status as a main source of ectopic beats for the initiation of atrial dysrrythmias is strongly recommended.   we report the case of a 13-year-old girl who was admitted to our hospital with the electrocardiogram manifestation of an ectopic atrial tachycardia. the focus of arrhythmia was inside the right upper p...
