BackgroundPrevious studies indicated the effectiveness of permanent stenting when dealing with retriever-failed refractory large vascular occlusion (LVO). Variety types of stents were implanted permanently to achieve recanalization. Low-profile visualized intraluminal support (LVIS) is generally used as a supportive device for embolization of intra...

BackgroundBoth systemic-pulmonary shunt and arterial duct stent could be the palliation of duct-dependent pulmonary circulation. We aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of the two approaches.MethodsThe PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched through December 2019 for studies comparing stent implantation and surgical shunt i...

The specific anatomic characteristics of the iliac veins are often important reasons for stent failure. However, to the best of our knowledge, the inherent angles and configurations of the iliac veins have not been thoroughly studied. Fifty patients without venous diseases who had undergone computed tomography urography for diagnosis of urolithiasi...

Sidewall aneurysm treatment often requires complex management strategies. These can include advanced clipping techniques or stent-assisted coiling techniques. Endovascular coiling alone has been associated with high recurrence rates and is often not feasible.1-4 Flow-diversion embolization has recently become a standard of care for many aneurysms, ...

Wide-necked aneurysms often pose challenges for distal access to the distal vasculature. This 64-yr-old woman without neurological deficits presented with atypical headaches of gradual onset. MRI revealed a large, symptomatic, unruptured carotid terminus aneurysm incorporating the origin of both the middle (MCA) and anterior cerebral arteries (ACA)...

Strokes due to basilar artery (BA) stenosis/occlusion are devastating. As it is an uncommon cause of stroke, its optimal management is not clearly defined. We present the case of a 68-year-old male with a background history of hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, and smoking who developed a sudden onset of reduced consciousness, myoclonic jerks, generali...

We reviewed articles on aortoesophageal fistula (AEF) published between January, 2009 and December, 2018. Postoperative aortic disease was the most common cause of AEF, followed by primary aortic aneurysm, bone ingestion, and thoracic cancer. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) was the most common initial therapy for primary aortic disease,...

Tracheal stenosis and tracheobronchomalacia are complicated, patient-specific diseases that can be treated with intraluminal stenting. Most commonly, silicone and metal stents are utilized, however, they pose significant early and late morbidity and are further complicated by growth of the airway in the pediatric population. Given recent improvemen...

Gastric stenosis (GS) is a well-recognized complication after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) with a negative impact on patients' nutritional status and quality of life. There is no consensus on a validated, comprehensive management algorithm for GS. This study evaluates treatment modalities and proposes a management algorithm for obstructive gastric sympt...
