Objective: It remains unclear whether the provisional extension to induce complete attachment (PETTICOAT) technique is superior to standard TEVAR for type B aortic dissection. This study evaluated the efficacy of the PETTICOAT technique for type B and postoperative residual type B aortic dissection in the subacute phase.
Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study evaluated sequential aortic morphological changes in consecutive patients with uncomplicated type B and residual postoperative type B aortic dissection treated using the PETTICOAT technique in the subacute phase between March 2018 and March 2023.

Introduction: von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is an autosomal dominant hereditary disorder characterized by the development of tumor-like lesions in multiple organs. While central nervous system hemangioblastomas, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and pancreatic cysts are commonly associated with VHL disease, there have been few reported cases of pancreatic hemangioblastoma in patients with VHL disease.
Case Presentation: A male patient in his 30s had been diagnosed with VHL disease and had been followed for cerebellar and spinal hemangioblastomas, and renal cell carcinoma, for which he had undergone several tumor resections, radiation therapy, and a ventriculoperitoneal shunt.

Introduction: Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome, or hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), is a rare autosomal dominant genetic vascular disease characterized by arteriovenous malformations, vascular wall fragility, dilatation, and rupture of the vessels with hepatic symptoms. As HHT with hepatic symptoms is recognized as the primary etiology for liver transplantation, liver transplantation with liver grafts from donors affected by HHT is extremely rare. Herein, we report a successful liver transplantation in a patient with biliary atresia who received a whole-liver graft from a young brain-dead donor with HHT.
