Filter by:Venous aneurysms are not common in general, but because of the inherent risk of thrombosis in aneurysms, their timely diagnosis and treatment are recommended in most of the current sources. Ten cases of venous aneurysms were diagnosed and managed in our vascular surgery department from October 2018 to January 2024. Patient information was extracted from their files retrospectively.
To compare the screening capabilities of the BlueDop Vascular Expert (BVE) and ankle brachial index (ABI) in peripheral arterial disease for all-comer patients and those with diagnosed diabetes mellitus.
andated when the risk of rupture is low and interventional treatment is offered to patients at high risk of rupture. Rupture risk is driven by aneurysm diameter and growth rate. Aneurysms with diameter greater than 55 mm and/or growth rate greater than 1 cm per year are at high risk of rupture. Open surgery and endovascular treatment are the two types of interventions. Open repair consists in replacing the aneurysmal part of the aorta using a synthetic fabric prosthesis after the abdomen has been opened and the aorta clamped. This invasive procedure is associated with a 3-10% post-operative mortality. Endovascular repair (EVAR) consists in excluding the aneurysm sac by inserting a self-expanding prosthesis (called stent-graft) through very small groin incisions, without abdominal opening nor aortic clamping. This minimally invasive procedure is associated with a significantly reduced post-operative mortality (around 1%) . However, hostile proximal neck anatomy including high angulation is associated with higher rates of type IA endoleak, reintervention and long-term mortality . For this reason, a conformable design of the Excluder stent-graft has been engineered with initial satisfactory results in patients with highly angulated or short necks . However, these satisfactory results have been obtained in carefully selected patients from experienced centers and a tool demonstrating adequate apposition of the Gore ACS is lacking. Study Device Description Numerical simulation has been used successfully to predict stent-graft behavior during FEVAR . Preliminary studies have also demonstrated to applicability of the technology to standard infrarenal devices , including in the setting of very tortuous anatomies9 . The potential of numerical simulation to predict stent-graft apposition of Gore ACS in highly angulated necks appears very promising to enhance patient selection.
Porto-Sinusoidal Vascular Disorders (PSVD) is a heterogeneous clinico-pathological entity characterized by alterations in small liver vessels. "Nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH)" is the most common PSVD. The most frequent liver disease associated with Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is primary biliary cholangitis reported in 2 to 22% of cases. NRH prevalence estimated to 1.4%, may be underestimated as NRH diagnosis is histologic and usually suspected in case of complications due to portal hypertension. Few data are available about NRH associated with SSc resulting in a lack of knowledge of the characteristics and outcome of these patients.
Peripheral arterial disease is a condition in which the arteries become narrowed due to a build up of cholesterol, as a result, blood cannot flow efficiently through the arteries and this can compromise the parts of the body supplied by these arteries. In its most severe form, peripheral arterial disease can lead to decomposition of tissues in the feet, leading to ulcers or gangrene. Patients with peripheral arterial disease undergo procedures to improve blood flow. However, there are often multiple arteries to treat and each intervention carries risk. It therefore can be difficult to judge how much treatment is sufficient to promote healing. Laser Speckle Imaging is a technique used to demonstrate blood flow in the skin. It is hoped that changes in skin blood flow, as measured by LSI, immediately after a procedure to improve blood flow, may help in the decision making as to whether further intervention is necessary. An LSI scan will be performed before a procedure for tissue loss and immediately after it is performed. The patient's clinical records will then be checked to see whether the wound has improved and whether the difference in LSI scans correlated with this.
The goal of this observational study or clinical trial is to know evaluate the effects of a modified Complete Decongestive Therapy protocol using the Godoy Method in the postoperative period following lipedema surgery. The main question it aims to answer are: - if the treatment is effective on pain reduction, edema resorption, mobility improvement in short term and follow-up at 90 days - if the treatment is effective on preventing complications of these participants after surgery Participants have been treated in the lasts years and authors recover information of the effects of the treatment. Researchers will compare sub-groups of participants depending on the number of physical therapy sessions received

The aim of the present observational study is to collect clinical data on the non-implantable medical device INVADER™ PTCA in the daily use in an unselected population.
A qualitative study conducted in 2018 Exploring socio-cultural factors impacting adherence to type 2 diabetes therapy in rural Sargodha featured respondents who were primarily doctors, patients, and. Diet, exercise, and smoking were all variables. The void we investigators will fill will be comprised of several professionals assessing sleep and sedentary lifestyle. A book on anthropology published in 2021 shows the gap are still the same about sedentary life style. The investigators aim to determine lifestyle practices in relation to sedentary behaviour in different occupations & comparing which profession is prone to chronic diseases in accordance to lifestyle practices
