Article Abstract
Repeated restenotic events are common in superficial femoral artery and as of late, Viabahn stent grafts have been FDA (U.S. Food & Drug Administration) approved. Viabahn have been particularly attractive given that they provided a physical barrier for the development of neointimal hyperplasia. This particular feature however, also underscores one of the main limitations of the therapy; providing a physical barrier of collateral circulation and predisposing to acute limb ischemia. Viabahn endograft thrombosis is characterized by stent edge stenosis and endograft thrombosis. Here we present 2 cases of Viabahn graft thrombosis successfully treated with the Jetstream atherectomy device, a rotational cutter with aspiration capacity.

Bilateral Spontaneous Dissection of the Superficial Femoral Arteries (SFAs): A Case Report.
Cureus
September 2025
Department of Cardiology, KAAJ Healthcare, San Jose, USA.
Spontaneous arterial dissection regarding the superficial femoral artery (SFA) is known to be an uncommon finding, and this clinical entity, when noted bilaterally, is exceptionally rare. Diagnosis is typically achieved by imaging modalities such as angio-tomography (angio-CT) or arteriography. This case report involves a 78-year-old male patient with a history of hypertension (HTN), cardiovascular disease, and arrhythmias who presented with leg pain and aches.

Spontaneous femoral artery pseudoaneurysms (SFAPs) represent a rare vascular entity. We report the successful hybrid management of a large, wide-necked ruptured SFAP in an 85-year-old male. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) confirmed a massive pseudoaneurysm originating from the distal right superficial femoral artery (SFA) with severe circumferential arterial calcification.

Introduction: anatomical deformities such as developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and Perthes disease represent a challenge for reconstruction. The use of 3D-printed models can be helpful for assessing the deformity, bone mass, implant size, and orientation.
Objectives: to prospectively evaluate the outcomes of 3D simulation in primary total hip arthroplasty.

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a progressive vascular disease characterized by atherosclerotic narrowing of peripheral arteries, resulting in decreased blood flow to the extremities. Common risk factors for PAD are diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia, although it can also occur in patients without these comorbidities, such as in the use of marijuana or alcohol. Recent research suggests that marijuana and alcohol use lead to endothelial dysfunction and vascular inflammation, conditions found in PAD.
