Unlabelled: Aortic dissection is a life-threatening cardiovascular emergency, particularly Stanford type A, which typically necessitates urgent surgical intervention. Despite advances in surgical techniques and perioperative care, preoperative bleeding and coagulopathy remain significant challenges. Tranexamic acid, an antifibrinolytic agent, is widely used to minimize perioperative bleeding in cardiovascular surgeries; however, its role in the non-surgical, preoperative stabilization of aortic dissection has not been well established.

Our investigation delves into the clinical manifestations, genetic foundations, diagnostic complexities, and prognosis associated with CADASIL. As a notable contributor to stroke occurrence in young patients, CADASIL's impact on morbidity and mortality is influenced by stroke-related complications and cognitive decline.

Background: Since 2013, we have performed conversion surgery after hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) for initially unresectable locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (LA-HCC).

Methods: Between 2013 and 2021, we assessed the surgical and oncological outcomes and pathological findings of patients with LA-HCC without extrahepatic spread (EHS) whose tumors converted from unresectable to resectable status with the New-FP regimen HAIC.

Results: We censored 153 patients with LA-HCC (Child-Pugh A, without EHS) indicated for HAIC.
