Abstract The FlowTriever Gen 1 System (Inari Medical, Irvine, California, United States) is a mechanical thrombectomy device designed to extract thrombus from the pulmonary arteries, but U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved for use in any artery or vein. From 2019 2020, three consecutive patients with extrapulmonary thrombosis involving inferior vena cava (IVC), renal, gonadal, femoropopl...

P REPORTS have accounted for autoregulation of renal blood flow on the basis of increases in extravascular pressure" which act as compressing forces on the renal vascular bed. Renal tissue pressures ranging between 2 and 120 mm. Hg have been found to approximate closely the pressures in deep renal veins of a caliber exceeding 0.73 mm. diameter. As a result of these investigations, the concept h...

Renal allograft thrombosis involving either the renal artery or the veins is a well known entity in clinical practice. This complication of the renal transplant surgery is more common in the early part of the post transplant period and it is usually associated with acute antibody mediated rejection. This more commonly occurs in the paediatric renal transplant and also seems to have some relatio...

BACKGROUND Renal cell carcinoma has marked tendency to spread into renal vein, inferior vena cava and right side of heart. Extension of tumour thrombus into these veins will alter the surgical approach. We have compared the CT scan with Colour flow Doppler ultrasound in detecting venous tumour thrombus in renal vein and inferior vena cava. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 30 adult ...

Thymic tumors are rare mediastinal tumors that can present with a wide variety of symptoms. They can cause distant manifestations and are frequently associated with paraneoplastic syndromes. In our case, we describe the evolution of a 68-year-old male whose first manifestation was thrombosis of the inferior vena cava and renal veins. Thrombosis of large abdominal veins is rare, especially witho...

Address for Correspondence: Dr. Maya Mukundan, Associate Professor, Department of Rachana Shareera (Anatomy), Govt.Ayurveda Medical College, Tripunithura, Kochi, India. E-mail: [email protected] The renal vasculature is found to vary and is often complex .The proper knowledge of renal vasculature is essential while performing surgical procedures. This case report is about the bilateral var...

Knowledge of the renal vascular anatomy greatly contributes to the success of surgical, invasive and radiological procedures of the retroperitoneal region. In today's era of transplant, this knowledge is of utmost importance in performing donor nephrectomy so that number of fatal intra-operative complications can be prevented. Herein, we report on a rare anomaly of left renal vein in which dual...

Multiple variations of the right renal and testicular vessels were found during routine dissection in a 65-year-old male cadaver. The cadaver was healthy and did not have any other anomalies. The variations found were: presence of three right renal arteries, origin of the right inferior suprarenal artery from the middle right renal artery, two right renal veins, origin of the right testicular a...

Vascular variations and the accidental cutting of veins and arteries potentially create problems during surgery and medical treatment. The surgeon's awareness of a vascular variation in the kidneys is essential during renal surgery and transplantation, color Doppler imaging, gonadal surgery and in the presence of an abdominal aortic aneurism. This awareness can improve the patient's recove...
