A transgraft embolization (TGE) technique was performed in a patient to treat a type II endoleak. Using a transfemoral arterial approach, the endograft was punctured using a coronary laser catheter aimed toward the type II endoleak nidus, which was treated with Onyx (Medtronic, Minneapolis, Minnesota). TGE resulted in successful embolization, as demonstrated on 1-year follow-up CT angiography, which showed complete elimination of the type II endoleak and shrinkage of the aneurysmal sac. TGE is an alternative to transarterial embolization, translumbar embolization, and transcaval embolization. 相似文献

Purpose
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) accompanied by common iliac artery (CIA) aneurysms requires a more demanding procedure owing to the difficulties in obtaining an adequate distal landing zone for the stent-graft limb(s), a potential site of endoleak. The “sandwich technique” is a procedure to increase EVAR feasibility in the setting of adverse or challenging CIA anatomy. Its main advantages include no restrictions in terms of CIA diameter or length or internal iliac artery (IIA) diameter, no need to wait for a specific stent-graft. Our purpose is to describe our single-center experience and one year follow-up results of this new procedure.Materials and Methods
From April 2009 to June 2010, the sandwich technique was performed in our institution in 7 patients treated for AAA and unilateral CIA aneurysms (n. 5) or bilateral CIA aneurysms (n. 2). Inclusion criteria were the presence of unilateral or bilateral CIA aneurysm (independently from its diameter), IIA artery measuring up to 9?mm in its maximum diameter, not dilatation of IIA and EIA.Results
The mean follow-up length was 15?months (range: 14–20 months). All stent-implanted iliac branches remained patent on 1?year follow-up and IIA flow was preserved. None of the patients had symptoms of pelvic ischemia. CT scan follow-up showed aneurysm shrinkage in five patients, without any sign of endoleaks in all cases.Conclusions
In selected cases, the “sandwich technique” showed good outcomes confirming to be a safe and easy to perform way to overcome anatomical constraints and expanding the limits of EVAR. 相似文献3.

We describe a new, useful embolization technique applied to occlude narrow vessel branches (≤1.5 mm (0.06″) in diameter) by deployment of one hydrocoil, through a microcatheter, in a way similar to the way in which one might navigate through the vascular lumen with a guidewire. 相似文献

Purpose
To describe the clinical features and treatment outcomes of ethanol embolotherapy in refractory chronic skin ulcers caused by arteriovenous malformations (AVMs).Materials and Methods
From October 2011 to October 2015, 12 patients (5 male; mean age, 26.2 y) with refractory chronic skin ulcers caused by AVMs were treated at a single institution. Ethanol embolotherapy was performed by direct puncture techniques. Needles were directly inserted toward the nidus of the lesion based on imaging analysis. When fast blood reflux was noted, angiography was performed to ensure only the nidus and draining vein were opacified. Symptoms before and after treatment, previous treatment of AVMs and ulcers, embolotherapy sessions, follow-up time, complications, and degree of devascularization were recorded. Treatment outcomes were established by evaluating symptom outcomes and the degree of devascularization on follow-up angiography.Results
Fifty embolotherapy procedures were performed in 12 patients: 6 underwent procedures on the head and neck, 4 on the feet, and 2 on the hands. Four patients (33.3%) experienced complete resolution of abnormal angioarchitecture according to follow-up angiography. Complete control of ulcers was achieved in all 12 patients. Two procedures (4%) in 2 patients (16.7%) caused superficial skin necrosis that healed spontaneously within 4 weeks. Thirteen procedures (26%) in 9 patients (75%) caused blistering immediately after treatment. There were no major complications.Conclusions
In a limited series, ethanol embolotherapy was effective and safe in the treatment of refractory chronic skin ulcers caused by AVMs. 相似文献7.

While the recent development of quantitative imaging methods have led to their increased use in the diagnosis and management of many chronic diseases, medical imaging still plays a limited role in the management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In this review we highlight three pulmonary imaging modalities: computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging and the COPD biomarkers that may be helpful for managing COPD patients. We discussed the current role imaging plays in COPD management as well as the potential role quantitative imaging will play by identifying imaging phenotypes to enable more effective COPD management and improved outcomes. 相似文献

Purpose
This study was designed to assess retrospectively short- and mid-term outcomes of the use of a suture-mediated closure device to close the antegrade access in patients undergoing percutaneous aspiration thrombectomy with large catheters for acute leg ischemia.Methods
Between November 2005 and February 2010, a suture-mediated active closure system (ProGlide® 6F, Abbott) was placed before arterial sheath (mean 9 F, range 6–12 F) introduction in 101 patients (74 men, 73 %, mean age 70.1 ± 12.6 years standard deviation). Data regarding mortality, complications, and factors contributing to vascular complications at the access site was collected for 6 month after the intervention to detect device-related problems. As a coincidence, 77 patients had follow-up visits for a duplex ultrasound.Results
There were a total of 19 vascular complications (19 %) at the puncture site, all of which were of hemorrhagic nature and none of which consisted of vessel occlusion. Two major outcome complications (2 %) occurred. A retroperitoneal hematoma and a serious inguinal bleeding required additive treatment and did not result in permanent sequelae. Nine cases involved death of which eight were not attributable to the closure and one remained unclear. Successful closure was achieved in 95 patients (94 %); additional manual compression was sufficient in the majority of the remaining patients. Numerous factors contributing to vascular complications were encountered.Conclusions
With acceptable short- and mid-term outcomes, the “preclose” technique can be a reliable option for the closure of a large antegrade femoral access even for patients at a high risk of vascular complications, such as those undergoing aspiration thrombectomy. 相似文献15.

This report describes a single-center experience with balloon-occluded transarterial chemoembolization for liver-directed therapy. A total of 26 patients (11 male, 4 female; mean age, 65 y ± 7) with 28 tumors (mean diameter, 2.7 cm; range, 1.1–5.9 cm) were treated. Technical success rate was 100% (28 of 28 cases), with 1 minor complication of left portal vein thrombosis and small liver infarct. Of the 15 tumors analyzed for response, 60% (9 of 15) exhibited complete response, 33.3% (5 of 15) exhibited partial response, and 6.6% (1 of 15) had stable disease on follow-up. Eight patients exhibited overall progression with a new hepatic lesion and a median time to progression of 7.9 months (range, 5–11 mo). 相似文献

The rapidity of change and increasing complexity of the academic medical center environment require a talented and engaged workforce with competencies in adaptability, capacity for working in empowered and diverse interprofessional teams, and self-efficacy. Radiology—a crosscutting field that interfaces with most other biomedical disciplines and that is often at the forefront of technological disruption—is a potentially ideal venue to focus professional and leadership development to create positive organizational value. In this report, we detail the design of and 9-year experience with a departmental leadership academy at a large academic center intended to foster team-based skills in early to midcareer faculty and staff. Over the past decade, 100 participants have completed the program with 80% retention, substantial professional growth, and increased capacity for mentoring others. This in-house, customized leadership development program is aligned with our strategic and cultural imperative to promote nimble, engaged, and empowered teams in a diverse and inclusive setting. 相似文献
