Accurate, noninvasive characterization of arterial wall mechanics and detection of fibrotic vascular lesions could vastly improve the ability to predict patient response to local treatments such as angioplasty. Current imaging and other techniques for determining wall compliance rely on imprecise or indirect estimates of wall motion. This study used high-resolution ultrasound imaging with phase...

Posttraumatic pseudoaneurysm associated with arteriovenous fistula of the upper or lower limb is exceptional. We are reporting herein the history of two cases in civil life that have been followed and repaired in our service. Both patients were shot more than a year before being referred to our tertiary hospital for an enlarging mass which was a pseudoaneurysm associated with an arteriovenous f...

The major problem associated with the creation of an arteriovenous fistula (AVF), which is the optimal form of vascular access for hemodialysis, is the fact that fistulas do not necessarily mature into a usable vascular access, requiring subsequent revision and construction of another access. The caliber of the vessels used for fistula creation is a pivotal factor predicting the presumable matu...

El documento “Código fistula” ha sido elaborado por el Grupo Español Multidisciplinar del Acceso Vascular (GEMAV) en colaboración con las asociaciones españolas de pacientes renales ALCER y ADER. A imagen semejanza infarto” ictus”, fístula” pretende ser un protocolo atención urgente que permite identificar a personas enfermedad renal tratadas mediante hemodiálisis presentan una patología aguda ...

BACKGROUND Lung transplantation (LTx) is widely accepted as a therapeutic option for end-stage respiratory failure in cystic fibrosis. However, airway complications remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality in these patients, serious airway complications like bronchopleural fistula (BPF) are rare, and their management is very difficult. CASE PRESENTATION A 47-year-old man with end-stage...

complications, inflammatory bowel disease, pelvic malignancy, pelvic irradiation, pelvic surgery, or other traumatic causes (1-4). Also, it may cause distressing symptoms including vaginal discharge with vaginitis, continual leakage of flatus and feces through the vagina, severe skin excoriation, as well as incontinence and dysparenunia. Treatment for an enterovaginal fistula depends on the loc...

Background: Vascular access bleeding is a rare event that can be fatal in hemodialysis patients. It requires emergency and surgical management to reduce the risk of ischemic events patient’s forearm mortality risk. Objective: To describe clinical presentation, intervention, outcome rupture-infected anastomotic pseudo aneurysm brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula underwent definitive procedure....

Transitional flow within an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) leads to vascular disease, which can be treated by implanting a stent. Large Eddy Simulations of blood patient-specific AVF revealed the significantly higher turbulent behavior in Stent-absent when compared Stented AVF. This finding provides key understanding reasons behind success this treatment strategy from fluid dynamics perspective.

background: percutaneous nephrolithotomy (pcnl) for renal calculi is less invasive treatment than open surgery. vascular complications of this procedure include hematoma, pseudoaneurysm and arteriovenous fistula of which pseudoaneurysm is usually symptomatic 24h after procedure. case report : we report a case of pseudoaneurysm, which was symptomatic within less than 24h following procedure and ...
