Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma at the Junction of the Internal Jugular and Subclavian Vein: A Case Report.

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is an exceptionally rare vascular tumor with an incidence of <1/million people/year. This case report describes a patient who initially presented with progressive left-sided neck swelling and dysphagia and was found to have EHE at the confluence of the left subclavian and internal jugular veins. Diagnosis was confirmed with a core needle biopsy after an initial inconclusive fine-needle aspiration.

Intravascular lithotripsy prior to transcarotid arterial revascularization: A technical tale of two cases.

calcific carotid stenosis is becoming more common as the advanced-age population grows, requiring new therapeutic approaches. As such, transcarotid arterial revascularization is gaining significant popularity in the management of carotid stenosis due to low rates of perioperative complications and optimal clinical outcomes. In addition, intravascular lithotripsy has shown promise in safely facilitating the success of endovascular procedures in the context of calcified lesions.

Two-Device Closure Method for Large Diameter Arteriotomies in Percutaneous Endovascular Aortic Repair.

Background: Percutaneous endovascular aortic repairs (pEVARs) are associated with access site complications. Two-device technique using 2 Perclose devices has been well established. Combined Perclose and Angioseal technique has been described as well.

Giant Chest Wall Arteriovenous Malformation: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Background: We present an interesting case of a 55-year-old male with a large left chest mass after significant cutaneous bleeding. Computed tomography angiogram of the chest revealed arteriovenous malformation with blood supply from sub-branches of the left subclavian artery, left internal mammary artery, and left external carotid artery. Measuring 5.

Thermoregulatory catheter-associated inferior vena cava thrombus.

The use of thermoregulatory catheters (TRCs) in critically ill patients has become increasingly popular. TRCs have been shown to be effective in regulating patient body temperature with improved outcomes. Critically ill patients, especially multitrauma patients and those with femoral catheters, are at high risk for deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Treatment of proximal vertebral artery disease.

Vertebral arterial disease (VAD) is a less commonly recognized and treated source of cerebrovascular ischemia compared with carotid artery disease. Patients are often referred for treatment after they have developed symptoms in the form of transient ischemic attacks or had a posterior hemispheric stroke. Traditional treatment of VAD has been surgical.
