The CASPER stent is expected to reduce periprocedural ischemic complications, but there is concern about restenosis in the early period. One-year follow-up results of CASPER stenting and findings on intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) immediately and 6 months after treatment are evaluated. Thirty consecutive patients were treated with CASPER stents for...

A recent trial failed to show any benefit of stenting plus medical therapy over medical therapy alone in patients with symptomatic intracranial stenosis. We aimed to examine whether the symptomatic qualifying artery modifies the effect of stenting plus medical therapy. This is a post-hoc analysis of the CASSISS trial that included patients with sym...

Kidney failure is particularly common in the United States, where it affects over 700,000 individuals. It is typically treated through repeated sessions of hemodialysis to filter and clean the blood. Hemodialysis requires vascular access, in about 70% of cases through an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) surgically created by connecting an artery and vei...

Tandem occlusions, characterized by the simultaneous presence of an intracranial large vessel occlusion and extracranial carotid artery stenosis or occlusion,1 pose a unique endovascular challenge.2 3 Typically, the extracranial occlusion is a result of atherosclerotic plaque; however, dissections are also a possible cause. It is currently uncertai...

Ischemic heart disease is the single most common cause of death in Europe. Mortality in patients presenting with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with many factors, one of which is the time delay to treatment. The purpose of this work is to analyze the coronary pathway in our region in terms of timing, taking into considerat...

peer reviewed / Since its first description almost four decades ago in the plastic surgery field, the angiosome theory has shown encouraging clinical success in Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia (CLTI) revascularization in recent years. Gradual scientific knowledge and evidence-based feedback are necessary to assess its usefulness and to overcome v...

A Japanese man in his 20s was referred to our hospital with a two-month history of abdominal fullness and leg edema. Abdominal computed tomography revealing massive ascites and ostial blockage of the main hepatic veins, and angiographic evaluation demonstrating obstruction of the main hepatic veins yielded a diagnosis of Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS)....

BACKGROUND: The superiority of balloon angioplasty plus aggressive medical management (AMM) to AMM alone for symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis (sICAS) on efficacy and safety profiles still lacks evidence from randomised controlled trials (RCTs). AIM: To demonstrate the design of an RCT on balloon angioplasty plus AMM for sICAS. DESIGN: Ballo...

Renovascular hypertension (RenoVH) is a cause of hypertension in children. A common cause of RenoVH is renal artery stenosis which acts by reducing blood supply to renal parenchyma and activating the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis, often leading to cardiac remodelling. This longitudinal observational study aims to describe occurrence of cardiov...

Peripheral arterial stenoses (PAS) are commonly investigated with duplex ultrasound (DUS) and angiography, but these are not functional tests. Fractional flow reserve (FFR), a pressure based index, functionally assesses the ischaemic potential of coronary stenoses, but its utility in PAS is unknown. FFR in the peripheral vasculature in patients wit...
