We report the complete, spontaneous obliteration of a partially thrombosed dissecting giant aneurysm in the basilar artery by occlusion of both the lumen of the aneurysm and the parent artery in a 15-year-old girl.

Iatrogenic femoral artery pseudoaneurysms (IFAPs) are not uncommon due to the increase in various minimally-invasive endovascular procedures. Percutaneous thrombin injection is an established technique for large pseudoaneurysms. When ultrasound-guided compression of aneurysmal neck feasible, percutaneous can be combined with balloon occlusion prevent leakage into parent artery. We describe a IF...

We describe a case of a giant thrombosed intrasellar internal carotid artery aneurysm initially diagnosed as pituitary macroadenoma. The differentiating neuroimaging features were discussed.

Reprint requests to: Dr. Wei-Chou Chang Department of Radiology, Tri-Service General Hospital. No. 325, Sec. 2, Cheng-Kung Road, Taipei, 114, Taiwan, R.O.C. Here we report an unusual case of a large pseudoaneurysm of the superior mesenteric artery, in which the pathogenesis was related to recurrent pancreatitis. The pseudoaneurysm spontaneously thrombosed without any surgery or endovascular emb...

We describe a giant left orbital vascular malformation that was treated with both percutaneous and transarterial embolization. Feeder artery aneurysms thrombosed as a result of retrograde reflux of embolic material into the distal ophthalmic artery. In this presentation, we emphasize the efficacy of percutaneous embolization and retrograde thromboses of two intradural saccular ophthalmic artery...

BACKGROUND To investigate the usefulness of popliteal artery spectral doppler findings as a complimentary approach to isolated calf vein thrombosis (DVT). MATERIAL/METHODS We included consecutive patients presenting with symptomatic and sonographically proven acute isolated calf DVT. Patients with thrombosis of any other vein were excluded. We classified calf vein into into four main types. W...

Introduction. Rupture of a branch of uterine artery during delivery often leads to a massive postpartum hemorrhage that can be successfully treated using uterine artery embolization. Case Report. A 33-year-old woman had a cesarean section at term followed by a secondary postpartum hemorrhage due to a ruptured cervicovaginal branch terminating in a large, partially thrombosed hematoma of the cer...

Two cases of isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection diagnosed by contrast enhanced 64 slice CT are reported. In both, the dissection was seen extending along the entire length of the artery with one of them showing partially thrombosed false lumen. One case was associated with dissection of left renal artery with consequent renal infarcts. Although superior mesenteric artery dissection ...

Treatment of basilar artery trunk aneurysms is still challenging today, although numerous approaches and modalities treatment exist. The authors present a case patient with partially thrombosed, ruptured aneurysm successfully treated by clipping occlusion the rupture point multilayered wrapping aneurysmal dome. A 49-year-old man presented to our emergency room chief complaint altered mental sta...
