PurposeTo compare early totally implantable central venous port catheter–related infection rates after inpatient vs outpatient placement and to determine whether the risk associated with inpatient placement is influenced by length of hospital stay.Materials and MethodsIn this single-institution retrospective study, 5,301 patients (3,618 women; mean age 57 y) underwent port placement by interventional radiologists between October 2004 and January 2018. The 30-day infection rate was compared between inpatients and outpatients using survival analysis. Among inpatients, the effect of time from admission to port placement and from placement to discharge was analyzed using a survival regression tree.ResultsThe 30-day infection rate was 3.6% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.9%–6.1%) among 386 inpatients and 1.0% (95% CI = 0.7%–1.3%) among 4,915 outpatients (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.6, 95% CI = 2.0–6.6, P < .001). Inpatient placement was a significant risk factor after accounting for covariates in multivariate analysis (HR = 2.2, 95% CI = 1.0–4.7, P = .05) and controlling for demographic differences by propensity score matching (HR = 2.8, 95% CI = 1.0–7.8, P = .04). Infection rate was 11% (95% CI = 4.7%–22%) among 65 inpatients in whom time from admission to placement was ≥ 7 days, 5.1% (95% CI = 1.9%–11%) among 129 inpatients in whom admission to placement was < 7 days and time to discharge was > 3 days, and 0% (95% CI = 0%–2.1%) among 192 inpatients in whom admission to placement was < 7 days and time to discharge was ≤ 3 days (P < .001).ConclusionsInpatient port placement was associated with a higher risk of early infection. However, a clinical decision tree based on shorter length of stay before and after placement may identify a subset of hospitalized patients not at increased risk for infection. 相似文献

PurposeTo investigate the association between the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and the risk of early biliary infection (EBI) after the placement of percutaneous transhepatic biliary stents (PTBS) in patients with unresectable malignant biliary obstruction (MBO).Materials and MethodsA total of 136 patients with unresectable MBO (82 males and 54 females) treated with PTBS were included in this multicenter retrospective study. PPIs were prescribed to MBO patients with dyspepsia. The risk factors for EBI were identified by univariate and multivariate analyses. The association between the use of PPIs and EBI was assessed by logistic analyses.ResultsA total of 72 (53%) patients were regular users of PPIs, and 33 (24%) patients developed EBI after PTBS. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that diabetes (hazard ratio [HR], 20.3; 95% confidence interval [CI], 5.6–72.9; P <.001), biliary stones (HR, 20.3; 95% CI, 5.6–72.9; P <.001) and PPIs (HR, 4.0; 95% CI, 1.2–12.8; P =.020) were risk factors for EBI. Further analyses of the correlation between the duration of PPIs use and EBI demonstrated that a prolonged use of PPIs significantly increased the risk of EBI (PPIs for <15 days vs 15–30 days: HR, 10.2; 95% CI, 3.1–33.3; P <.001; and PPIs <15 days vs ≥30 days; HR, 20.4; 95% CI, 2.2–192.3; P <.001).ConclusionThe use of PPIs increased the risk of EBI after PTBS in patients with unresectable MBO. Furthermore, the risk of EBI increased with a prolonged duration of PPIs use. 相似文献

PurposeTo evaluate the safety, primary patency, and clinical outcomes of hepatic artery stent graft (SG) placement for vascular injuries.Materials and MethodsPatients treated with hepatic arterial SG placement for vascular injuries between September 2018 and September 2021 were reviewed. Data on demographic characteristics, indication, stent graft characteristics, antiplatelet/anticoagulant use, clinical success rate, complications, and type of follow-up imaging were collected. Follow-up images were reviewed by 2 independent reviewers to assess primary patency. A time-to-event analysis was performed. The median duration of stent graft patency was estimated using Kaplan-Meier curves. A Cox proportional hazard model was used to evaluate factors related to stent graft patency.ResultsThirty-five patients were treated with hepatic arterial SG placement, 11 for postoperative bleeds and 24 for hepatic artery infusion pump catheter–related complications. Clinical success was achieved in 32 (91%) patients (95% CI, 77–98). The median primary patency was 87 days (95% CI, 73–293). Stent grafts of ≥6-mm diameter retained patency for a longer duration than that with stent grafts of smaller diameters (6 mm vs 5 mm; hazard ratio, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.14–0.88; P = .026; and 7+ mm vs 5 mm; hazard ratio, 0.27; 95% CI, 0.09–0.83; P = .023). Anticoagulation/antiplatelet regimen was not associated with increased stent graft patency duration (P > .05). Only minor complications were reported in 2 (5.7%) patients.ConclusionsStent grafts can be used safely and effectively to treat injuries of the hepatic artery. Stent graft diameters of ≥6 mm seem to provide more durable patency. 相似文献

PurposeTo evaluate the prognostic value of pretreatment serum γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT) level in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) receiving transarterial chemoembolization.Materials and MethodsThis retrospective study included 140 patients (123 male, 17 female; mean age, 56.9 y ± 12.0; range, 22.0–82.0 y) with Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer class C HCC who received first-line conventional chemoembolization between December 2013 and March 2018. Patients were divided into low and high GGT groups based on a cutoff value calculated with a receiver operating characteristic curve. Overall survival (OS) was compared between groups by log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate survival analyses were performed.ResultsThe optimal cutoff values of GGT were 119.5 U/L in men and 175.0 U/L in women. The 6-, 9-, and 12-mo OS rates were 81.7%, 72.4%, and 62.9%, respectively, for patients in the low GGT group (n = 44) and 58.8%, 35.7%, and 28.8%, respectively, for patients in the high GGT group (n = 96; P < .001). Multivariable Cox regression analysis identified high pretreatment serum GGT level (hazard ratio [HR], 2.71; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.67–4.40; P < .001), multiple tumors (HR, 3.05; 95% CI, 1.23–7.53; P = .02), and performance of target treatment (ie, sorafenib; HR, 0.41; 95% CI, 0.24–0.72; P = .002) or ablation (HR, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.18–0.66; P = .001) as independent prognostic factors for OS.ConclusionsPretreatment serum GGT level was an independent prognostic factor for OS in patients with advanced HCC treated with chemoembolization, suggesting that GGT is a useful prognostic biomarker for advanced HCC. 相似文献

PurposeTo prove that covered stents are more efficacious than uncovered stents regarding patency, safety, enabling of chemotherapy, and survival in percutaneous palliation of malignant infrahilar biliary obstruction.Materials and MethodsAfter failed endoscopic treatment, 154 patients with obstructive jaundice caused by unresectable infrahilar malignancy were randomly allocated to receive an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene and fluorinated ethylene propylene–covered or an uncovered nitinol stent. Occlusion rate, patency, and survival were assessed. Safety and clinical success in terms of chemotherapy were compared.ResultsThree patients were excluded post hoc. Fifteen patients died within 7 d and were excluded from patency analysis. Occlusion rates were 32% (21 of 66) for covered and 29% (20 of 70) for uncovered stents (P = .7). Estimated median patency durations were 308 d (95% confidence interval [CI], 178–438 d) for covered and 442 d (95% CI, 172–712 d) for uncovered stents (P = .1). Serious adverse events (P = 1.0) and 30-day mortality (P = .5) were equivalent between groups. At hospital discharge, median bilirubin reduction of 8 mg/dL was found in both groups (P < .001). In the covered stent group, 35 patients (48%) received palliative chemotherapy, vs 29 (37%) in the uncovered stent group (P = .2). Estimated median survival times were 96 days (95% CI, 68–124 d) with covered stents and 75 days (95% CI, 42–108 d) with uncovered stents (P = .6).ConclusionsIn malignant infrahilar biliary obstruction not amenable to endoscopy, no improvement in patency or survival with percutaneously placed covered stents could be confirmed. Covered and uncovered stent types exhibit similar safety profiles and clinical success rates. 相似文献

PurposeTo examine National Cancer Database (NCDB) data to comparatively evaluate overall survival (OS) between patients undergoing transarterial radioembolization (TARE) and those undergoing systemic therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma with major vascular invasion (HCC-MVI).MethodsOne thousand five hundred fourteen patients with HCC-MVI undergoing first-line TARE or systemic therapy were identified from the NCDB. OS was compared using propensity score–matched Cox regression and landmark analysis. Efficacy was also compared within a target trial framework.ResultsTARE usage doubled between 2010 and 2015. Intervals before treatment were longer for TARE than for systemic therapy (mean [median], 66.5 [60] days vs 46.8 (35) days, respectively, P < .0001). In propensity-score–matched and landmark-time–adjusted analyses, TARE was found to be associated with a hazard ratio of 0.74 (95 % CI, 0.60–0.91; P = .005) and median OS of 7.1 months (95 % CI, 5.0–10.5) versus 4.9 months (95 % CI, 3.9–6.5) for systemically treated patients. In an emulated target trial involving 236 patients with unilobular HCC-MVI, a low number of comorbidities, creatinine levels <2.0 mg/dL, bilirubin levels <2.0 mg/dL, and international normalized ratio <1.7, TARE was found to be associated with a hazard ratio of 0.57 (95 % CI, 0.39–0.83; P = .004) and a median OS of 12.9 months (95 % CI, 7.6–19.2) versus 6.5 months (95 % CI, 3.6–11.1) for the systemic therapy arm.ConclusionsIn propensity-score–matched analyses involving pragmatic and target trial HCC-MVI cohorts, TARE was found to be associated with significant survival benefits compared with systemic therapy. Although not a substitute for prospective trials, these findings suggest that the increasing use of TARE for HCC-MVI is accompanied by improved OS. Further trials of TARE in patients with HCC-MVI are needed, especially to compare with newer systemic therapies. 相似文献

BackgroundWhether coronary plaque characteristics assessed in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in association with the coronary artery calcium score (CACS) have predictive value for coronary events is unclear. We aimed to examine the predictive value of the CACS and plaque characteristics for the occurrence of coronary events.MethodsAmong 2802 patients who were analyzed in the PREDICT registry, 2083 with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) were studied using post hoc analysis. High-risk plaques were defined as having ≥2 adverse characteristics, such as low computed tomographic attenuation, positive remodeling, spotty calcification, and napkin-ring sign. An adjudicative composite of coronary events (cardiac death, nonfatal acute coronary syndrome, and coronary revascularization ≥3 months after indexed CCTA) were analyzed.ResultsSeventy-three (3.5%) patients had coronary events and 313 (15.0%) had high-risk plaques. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis showed that high-risk plaques remained an independent predictor of coronary events (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.95, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.13–3.34, P ?= ?0.0154), as well as the log-transformed CACS (adjusted HR 1.24, 95% CI 1.11–1.39, P ?= ?0.0002) and the presence of obstructive stenosis (adjusted HR 5.63, 95% CI 3.22–10.12, P 0.0001). In subgroup analyses, high-risk plaques were independently predictive only in the low CACS class (<100).ConclusionThis study shows that assessment of adverse features by coronary plaque imaging independently predicts coronary events in patients with suspected CAD and a low CACS. Our findings suggest that the clinical value of high-risk plaques to CACS and stenosis assessment appears marginal. 相似文献

PurposeTo assess use of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for stage I renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and compare outcomes with thermal ablation and partial nephrectomy (PN).Materials and MethodsThe 2004–2015 National Cancer Database was investigated for histopathologically proven stage I RCC treated with PN, cryoablation, radiofrequency (RF) or microwave (MW) ablation, or SBRT. Patients were propensity score–matched to account for potential confounders, including patient age, sex, race, comorbidities, tumor size, histology, grade, tumor sequence, administration of systemic therapy, treatment in academic vs nonacademic centers, treatment location, and year of diagnosis. Overall survival (OS) was evaluated with Kaplan-Meier plots, log-rank tests, and Cox proportional hazards models.ResultsA total of 91,965 patients were identified (SBRT, n = 174; PN, n = 82,913; cryoablation, n = 5,446; RF/MW ablation, n = 3,432). Stage I patients who received SBRT tended to be older women with few comorbidities treated at nonacademic centers in New England states. After propensity score matching, a cohort of 636 patients was obtained with well-balanced confounders between treatment groups. In the matched cohort, OS after SBRT was inferior to OS after PN and thermal ablation (PN vs SBRT, hazard ratio [HR] = 0.29, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.19–0.46, P < .001; cryoablation vs SBRT, HR = 0.40, 95% CI 0.26–0.60, P < .001; RF/MW ablation vs SBRT, HR = 0.46, 95% CI 0.31–0.67, P < .001). Compared with PN, neither cryoablation nor RF/MW ablation showed significant difference in OS (cryoablation vs PN, HR = 1.35, 95% CI 0.80–2.28, P = .258; RF/MW ablation vs PN, HR = 0.64, 95% CI 0.95–2.55, P = .079).ConclusionsCurrent SBRT protocols show lower OS compared with thermal ablation and PN, whereas thermal ablation and PN demonstrate comparable outcomes. 相似文献

PurposeTo compare the safety and effectiveness of different-site port placement versus same-site port salvage in adult patients with occluded ports.Materials and MethodsNinety-five occluded subcutaneous infusion ports (ports) in 95 patients presenting between July 1, 2002, and June 30, 2017, were retrospectively reviewed: 48 (51%) different-site placements (replacements; same-day indwelling port removal and different-site new port placement) and 47 (49%) same-site salvages (salvages; 35 fibrin sheath strippings, 12 over-the-wire exchanges). Demographic information, indication for initial placement and replacement or salvage, procedural details, post-intervention primary catheter patency, and post-intervention port sequelae were recorded. Post-intervention primary catheter patency, and malfunction and infection rates were compared with Kaplan-Meier estimation and the log-rank test, and Fisher exact test, respectively. The association of patient risk factors and port patency was assessed with Cox regression.ResultsMedian primary catheter patency after replacement was 254 days (interquartile range [IQR], 297) and after salvage was 391 days (IQR, 906) (P = .25). Within the salvage group, median primary catheter patency after stripping was 391 days (IQR, 658) and after exchange was 666 days (IQR, 1412) (P = .08). There was no statistical difference in malfunction (P = .12) and infection (P = .74) rates between the replaced and salvaged groups or in malfunction (P = .09) and infection (P = .1) rates between the exchanged and stripped subgroups. None of the patient or catheter characteristics assessed were significantly associated with primary catheter patency.ConclusionsThere was no statistical difference between patency, malfunctions, or infections after replacement and salvage, or after stripping and exchange, so technique selection should be based on the patient’s estimated lifetime venous access requirements, cost, and physician preference. 相似文献

PurposeTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous argon-helium cryoablation (CA) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) abutting the diaphragm (<5 mm).Materials and MethodsA total of 61 consecutive patients (50 men, 11 women; mean age, 56.3 ± 12.1 years old; range, 32–83 years) with 74 HCC tumors (mean size, 3.3 ± 1.7 cm; range, 0.8–7 cm) who were treated with percutaneous argon-helium CA were enrolled in this retrospective study. Adverse events were evaluated according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 5.0. Local tumor progression (LTP) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test. The risk factors associated with OS and LTP were evaluated using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis.ResultsNo periprocedural (30-day) deaths occurred. A total of 29 intrathoracic adverse events occurred in 24 of the 61 patients. Major adverse events were reported in 5 patients (pleural effusion requiring catheter drainage in 4 patients and pneumothorax requiring catheter placement in 1 patient). Median follow-up was 18.7 months (range, 2.3–60.0 months). Median time to LTP after CA was 20.9 months (interquartile range [IQR], 14.1–30.6 months). Median times of OS after CA and diagnosis were 27.3 months (IQR, 15.1–45.1 months) and 40.9 months (interquartile range, 24.8–68.6 months), respectively. Independent prognostic factors for OS included tumor location (left lobe vs right lobe; hazard ratio [HR], 2.031; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.062–3.885; P = .032) and number of intrahepatic tumors (solitary vs multifocal; HR, 2.684; 95% CI, 1.322–5.447; P = .006). Independent prognostic factors for LTP included age (HR, 0.931; 95% CI, 0.900–0.963; P < .001), guidance modality (ultrasound vs computed tomography and US; HR, 6.156 95% CI, 1.862–20.348; P = .003) and origin of liver disease.ConclusionsPercutaneous argon-helium CA is safe for the treatment of HCC abutting the diaphragm, with acceptable LTP and OS. 相似文献

BackgroundCoronary artery calcium score (CACS) is associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) development, but scarce data are available regarding the impact on AF recurrence. This study aims to assess the impact of CACS on AF recurrence following catheter ablation.MethodsRetrospective study of patients with AF undergoing cardiac computed tomography (CCT) before ablation (2017–2019). Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), significant valvular heart disease and previous catheter ablation were excluded. A cut-off of CACS ≥ 100 was used according to literature.ResultsA total of 311 patients were included (median age 57 [48, 64] years, 65% men and 21% with persistent AF). More than half of the patients had a CACS > 0 (52%) and 18% a CACS ≥ 100. Patients with CACS ≥ 100 were older (64 [59, 69] vs 55 [46, 63] years, p ?< ?0.001), had more frequently hypertension (68% vs 42%, p ?< ?0.001) and diabetes mellitus (21% vs 10%, p ?= ?0.020). During a median follow-up of 34 months (12–57 months), 98 patients (32%) had AF recurrence. CACS ≥ 100 was associated with increased risk of AF recurrence (unadjusted Cox regression: hazard ratio [HR] 2.0; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.3–3.1, p ?= ?0.002). After covariate adjustment, CACS ≥ 100 and persistent AF remained independent predictors of AF recurrence (HR, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.0–2.8, p ?= ?0.039 and HR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.3–3.2, p ?= ?0.004, respectively).ConclusionAn opportunistic evaluation of CACS could be an important tool to improve clinical care considering that CACS ≥ 100 was independently associated with a 69% increase in the risk of AF recurrence after first catheter ablation. 相似文献

Real-World Safety Analysis of Paclitaxel Devices Used for the Treatment of Peripheral Artery Disease
《Journal of vascular and interventional radiology : JVIR》2023,34(7):1157-1165.e8
PurposeTo investigate the real-world safety of paclitaxel (PTX)-coated devices for treating lower extremity peripheral artery disease using a commercial claims database.Materials and MethodsData from FAIR Health, the largest commercial claims data warehouse in the United States, were used for this study. The study consisted of patients who underwent femoropopliteal revascularization procedures between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2019, with PTX and non-PTX devices. The primary outcome was 4-year survival following treatment. The secondary outcomes included 2-year survival, 2- and 4-year freedom from amputation, and repeat revascularization. Propensity score matching was used to minimize confounding, and the Kaplan-Meier methods were used to estimate survival.ResultsA total of 10,832 procedures were included in the analysis, including 4,962 involving PTX devices and 5,870 involving non-PTX devices. PTX devices were associated with a reduced hazard of death following treatment at 2 and 4 years (hazard ratio [HR], 0.74 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 0.69–0.79]; P <.05, and HR, 0.89 [95% CI, 0.77–1.02]; log-rank P =.018, respectively). The risk of amputation was also lower following treatment with PTX devices than with non-PTX devices at 2 and 4 years (HR, 0.82 [95% CI, 0.76–0.87]; P =.02, and HR, 0.77 [95% CI, 0.67–0.89]; log-rank P =.01, respectively). In addition, the odds of repeat revascularization were similar with PTX and non-PTX devices at 2 and 4 years.ConclusionsIn the real-world commercial claims database, no short- or long-term signal for increased mortality or amputations was observed following treatment with PTX devices. 相似文献

BackgroundAlthough cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) assessment of right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) is feasible, the incremental prognostic value remains uncertain in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) evaluation. This study sought to determine the incremental clinical utility of RVD identification by CCTA while accounting for clinical and echocardiographic parameters.MethodsPatients who underwent multiphasic ECG-gated functional CCTA using dual-source system for routine TAVR planning were evaluated. Biphasic contrast protocol injection allowed for biventricular contrast enhancement. CCTA-based RVD was defined as right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) ?< ?50%. The association of CCTA-RVD with all-cause mortality and the composite outcome of death or heart failure hospitalization after TAVR was evaluated and examined for its incremental utility beyond clinical risk assessment and echocardiographic parameters.ResultsA total of 502 patients were included (median [IQR] age, 82 [77 to 87] years; 56% men) with a median follow-up of 22 [16 to 32] months. Importantly, 126 (25%) patients were identified as having RVD by CCTA that was not identified by echocardiography. CCTA-defined RVD predicted death and the composite outcome in both univariate analyses (HR for mortality, 2.15; 95% CI, 1.44–3.22; p ?< ?0.001; HR for composite outcome, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.48–3.01; p ?< ?0.001) and in multivariate models that included clinical risk factors and echocardiographic findings (HR for mortality, 1.74; 95% CI, 1.11–2.74; p ?= ?0.02; HR for composite outcome, 1.63; 95% CI, 1.09–2.44; p ?= ?0.02).ConclusionsFunctional CCTA assessment pre-TAVR correctly identified 25% of patients with RVD that was not evident on 2D echocardiography. The presence of RVD on CCTA independently associates with clinical outcomes post-TAVR. 相似文献

PurposeTo investigate the clinical safety and efficacy of computed tomography (CT)–guided iodine-125 (125I) brachytherapy as a salvage treatment for esophageal cancer with locoregional lymph node recurrence (LNR).Materials and MethodsThis retrospective study included patients with esophageal cancer who developed locoregional LNR after initial curative resection followed by CT-guided 125I brachytherapy as a salvage treatment (January 2014 to January 2020). Local tumor progression–free survival (LTPFS) was assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, v1.1. Clinical response was evaluated with the Numerical Rating Scale pain score, and adverse events were evaluated with the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (v5.0). A layered Cox proportional hazards model was used to determine independent factors affecting LTPFS.ResultsA total of 52 patients (mean age, 60 years) were included in this study. The median follow-up was 9.3 months (range, 4.3–12 months). The median LTPFS was 7.0 months (interquartile range, 5.0–9.5 months). The local control rates were 100%, 94.2%, 59.6%, and 13.4% at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively. The overall survival rates were 100%, 100%, 82.6%, and 36.5% at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively. The number of locoregional LNRs (hazard ratio [HR], 2.38 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 1.11–5.10]; P = .026), clinical stage at diagnosis (HR, 8.12 [95% CI, 3.19–20.66]; P < .001), and pathologic stage (HR, 5.74 [95% CI, 2.14–15.39]; P = .001) were independent factors for LTPFS. The rate of pain relief was 96.4% (27 of 28). Treatment-related death was not observed.ConclusionsCT-guided 125I radioactive seed implantation resulted in pain relief and short to midterm local control. 相似文献

PurposeTo compare the cost and outcomes of surgical and interventional radiology (IR) placement of totally implantable venous access devices (TIVADs) within a large regional health system to determine the service line with better outcomes and lower costs to the health system.Materials and MethodsA retrospective review of all chest port placements performed in the operating room (OR) and IR suite over 12 months was conducted at a large, integrated health system with 6 major hospitals. Secondary electronic health record and cost data were used to identify TIVAD placements, follow-up procedures indicating port malfunction, early adverse events (within 1 month after the surgery), late adverse events (2–12 months after the procedure), and health system cost of TIVAD placement and management.ResultsFor 799 total port placements included in this analysis, the rate of major adverse events was 1.3% and 1.9% for the IR and OR groups, respectively, during the early follow-up (P = .5655) and 4.9% and 2.8% for the IR and OR groups, respectively, during the late follow-up (P = .5437). Malfunction-related follow-up procedure rates were 1.8% and 2.6% for the IR and OR groups, respectively, during the early follow-up (P = .4787) and 12.4% and 10.5% for the IR and OR groups, respectively, during the late follow-up (P = .4354). The mean cost of port placement per patient was $4,509 and $5,247 for the IR and OR groups, respectively. The difference in per-patient cost of port placement was $1,170 greater for the OR group (P = .0074).ConclusionsThe similar rates of adverse events and follow-up procedures and significant differences in insertion cost suggest that IR TIVAD placement may be more cost effective than surgical placement without affecting the quality. 相似文献

PurposeTo assess diagnostic performance of CT-guided percutaneous needle bone biopsy (CTNBB) in patients with suspected osteomyelitis and analyze whether certain clinical or technical factors were associated with positive microbiology results.Materials and MethodsAll CTNBBs performed in a single center for suspected osteomyelitis of the appendicular and axial skeleton during 2003–2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Specific inclusion criteria were clinical and radiologic suspicion of osteomyelitis. Standard of reference was defined using outcome of surgical histopathology and microbiology culture and clinical and imaging follow-up. Technical and clinical data (needle size, comorbidities, clinical factors, laboratory values, blood cultures) were collected. Logistic regression was performed to assess associations between technical and clinical data and microbiology biopsy outcome.ResultsA total of 142 CTNBBs were included (46.5% female patients; age ± SD 46.10 y ± 22.8), 72 (50.7%) from the appendicular skeleton and 70 (49.3%) from the axial skeleton. CTNBB showed a sensitivity of 42.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 32.0%–53.6%) in isolating the causative pathogen. A higher rate of positive microbiology results was found in patients with intravenous drug use (odds ratio [OR] = 5.15; 95% CI, 1.2–21.0; P = .022) and elevated white blood cell count ≥ 10 × 109/L (OR = 3.9; 95% CI, 1.62–9.53; P = .002). Fever (≥ 38°C) was another clinical factor associated with positive microbiology results (OR = 3.6; 95% CI, 1.3–9.6; P = .011).ConclusionsCTNBB had a low sensitivity of 42.5% for isolating the causative pathogen. Rate of positive microbiology samples was significantly higher in patients with IV drug use, elevated white blood cell count, and fever. 相似文献

PurposeTo compare chest port (port)-related complication rates between right- and left-sided ports placed in adult oncologic patients with a history of right-sided port removal.Materials and MethodsA retrospective chart review identified 90 adult oncologic patients with a history of right-sided port removal. Of these, 60 patients had a second port placed on the right side (right-side group), while 30 patients had a second port placed on the left side (left-side group). Median time between first port removal and second port placement was 217 days (range, 0–3808 days). Port-related complications included infection (port-site and/or bloodstream), mechanical, thrombotic, and port-site skin complications. Complication rates between groups were compared. Proportional subdistribution hazard regression (PSHREG) was conducted to determine if laterality of the second port is an independent risk factor for port-related complications.ResultsThe cumulative follow-up period was 34,748 catheter-days (median, 233; range, 9–2162 days). Eleven patients (18.3%) in the right-side group and 2 patients (6.7%) in the left-side group had port-related complications (P = .21), accounting for complication rates of 0.5 and 0.2/1000 catheter-days (P = .24), respectively. No statistical difference was found in the incidence of infection (9/60 vs 1/30, P = .16), mechanical (0/60 vs. 1/30, P = .33), thrombotic (1/60 vs 0/30, P = 1.0), and skin-related (1/60 vs 0/30, P = 1.0) complications between groups. In multivariate PSHREG, laterality of the second port (hazard ratio = 3.09, 95% confidence interval = 0.81–11.76, P = .10) was not a significant risk factor for port-related complications.ConclusionsIn adult oncologic patients with a history of right-sided port removal, no significant differences in port-related complication rates were observed between right- and left-sided second ports. 相似文献

PurposeTo determine the risk factors for local of adult patients treated for desmoid tumors by cryoablation.Materials and MethodsEighty-four patients treated for nonabdominopelvic desmoid tumors by cryoablation from July 2012 to July 2020 were included in a retrospective study. The population was composed of 64 women (76.19%) and 20 men (23.81%), aged from 16 to 75 years (median, 35 years ± 14.25). Each patient underwent preprocedural gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging and was followed up to 36 months with the same technique. Clinical features, such as tumor size and previous treatment, epidemiological features, and the technical parameters of cryoablation, were studied.ResultsLocal relapse was found in 19 (22.62%) of 84 patients. The 12-, 24-, and 36-month progression-free survival rates were 89% (95% confidence interval [CI], 79–94), 74% (95% CI, 60–83), and 68% (95% CI, 53–79), respectively. In univariate analysis, significant prognostic factors associated with local recurrence were non–abdominal wall location (P = .042), debulking strategy (P = .0105), risk of visceral injury (P = .034) or peripheral nerve injury during cryoablation (P = .033), previous radiation therapy (P = .043), and treatment before 2016 (P = .008). In multivariate analysis, abdominal wall tumors displayed the best outcome, whereas the neck and trunk showed a high rate of recurrence (hazard ratio, 7.307 [95% CI, 1.396–38.261]).ConclusionsThe local recurrence of desmoid tumors after cryoablation depends on a number of prognostic factors, in particular, a non–abdominal wall location of the tumor and previous local treatment such as surgery or radiation therapy. 相似文献

PurposeTo explore the association between baseline osteoarthritis (OA)-related magnetic resonance (MR) imaging features and pain reduction after genicular artery embolization (GAE) in patients with mild-to-moderate symptomatic knee OA resistant to conservative therapy.Materials and MethodsThis was a retrospective analysis of patients with mild-to-moderate symptomatic knee OA treated with GAE using imipenem-cilastatin sodium. The clinical outcome was scored at baseline and 6 months after treatment using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). MR images were scored using the MR imaging osteoarthritis knee score. Linear regression was used to evaluate associations of before-treatment MR imaging scores with WOMACpain and WOMACtotal reduction after 6 months.ResultsFifty-four patients (22.2% male; median age, 69.4 years; median WOMACpain at baseline, 12) were evaluated. Of all OA features scored, a higher cartilage full-thickness defect score showed the strongest association with less reduction of both WOMACpain (B,?0.63 [95% confidence interval (CI), ?0.91 to ?0.34]; P < .001) and WOMACtotal scores (B, ?1.77 [95% CI, ?2.87 to ?0.67]; P < .001) following treatment. The presence of grade 2–3 effusion synovitis (B, ?2.99 [95% CI, ?5.39 to ?0.60]) bone marrow lesions (B, ?0.52 [95% CI, ?0.86 to ?0.19]), osteophytes (B, ?0.21 [95% CI, ?0.36 to ?0.06]), and cartilage defect surface area score (B, ?0.25 [95% CI ?0.42 to ?0.08]) all showed a significant association with less WOMACpain reduction (all P < .05).ConclusionsIn patients with mild-to-moderate symptomatic knee OA treated with GAE, the presence and severity of full-thickness cartilage defects, effusion synovitis, bone marrow lesions, osteophytes, and cartilage surface area scores at baseline are associated with less favorable clinical outcomes at 6 months. 相似文献
