Article Abstract
Chronic thoracic venous occlusion (CTVO) as a result of repeated or prolonged central venous catheter insertion represents a significant problem in catheter-dependent patients. Different endovascular techniques techniques have been utilised for CTVO recanalization. The Surfacer® Inside-out® system represents a new approach to restore right-sided central venous access in CTVO by the inside-out recanalization technique. Standard approach for device implantation is through right femoral vein. In this case report, we report the first case to our knowledge of dialysis access restoration with Surfacer® system implantation via an unconventional and non-standard route by a transcollateral approach in a patient with exhausted vascular access options.

Treatment of Vascular Perforation Bleeding Complications Post-Coronary Intervention Using Coils.
Eur J Case Rep Intern Med
August 2025
Hanoi Heart Hospital, Hanoi, Vietnam.
Background: Perforation of artery causing bleeding is a rare but serious complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), with potentially life-threatening consequences. Prompt recognition and management are crucial, particularly in high-risk patients or complex procedures. Coils are essential tools for sealing perforated or ruptured vessels, preventing further haemorrhage and stabilising the patient.

The reduction in clinical rotation hours, particularly in high-demand pediatric subspecialties such as Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) and Pediatric Emergency Rooms (ER), has highlighted the need for innovative approaches to enhance pediatric residency education. A 2019 survey of Italian pediatric residency programs revealed that most residents receive fewer than five hours of simulation-based training annually, with 66% participating in no simulation activities. Additionally, pediatric ER rotation hours have seen significant reductions-daytime rotations decreased by 29%, while nighttime rotations were reduced by 60% over the past four years at the University of Genoa.

Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is a progressive condition that is associated with high rates of morbidity, frequent hospitalizations, and significant mortality. Despite advancements in guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), many patients continue to be at risk for worsening heart failure (WHF). Vericiguat is a novel soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulator that targets the impaired nitric oxide (NO)-sGC-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway.

Cardiovascular assessments in children and adolescents with hypertension are essential for detecting early signs of organ damage and guiding timely interventions. The pathophysiology of pediatric hypertension involves a complex interplay of arterial stiffness, endothelial dysfunction, metabolic disturbances, activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, and immune dysregulation. These mechanisms collectively contribute to target organ damage, particularly in the cardiovascular system.

Heyde's syndrome signifies the link between aortic stenosis (AS) and bleeding due to angiodysplastic changes. While colonic angiodysplasia is commonly implicated, gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE) represents a rarer manifestation in this context. We report the case of a 72-year-old male with severe AS who had recurrent upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to GAVE.
