Article Abstract

Endovascular techniques have progressively become the first option for the treatment of stenosis and occlusions of both aorto-iliac and femoro-popliteal district. The development of new technologies and new materials has broadened the applicability of the endovascular techniques, allowing the treatment of each lesion with the most suitable material. A knowledge of the behavior of endovascular materials when treating peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is, therefore, crucial for optimization of the results. Here, we aim to review the most important technical features of the actually available endovascular materials for treating PAD.

Objective: To compare 6- and 12-month results of femoral artery repair with xenopericardial and autologous venous patch in hybrid treatment of critical lower limb ischemia.

Material And Methods: A retrospective analysis included 60 patients with critical lower limb ischemia who underwent hybrid treatment (balloon angioplasty and stenting of iliac arteries and open reconstruction of femoral arteries). Patients were divided into 2 groups by 30 people depending on femoral artery repair (group 1 - autologous venous patch, group 2 - xenopericardial patch).

Objectives: Contrast extravasation on imaging studies is a clinical surrogate for bleeding severity. However, the prognostic relevance of this imaging sign needs to be evaluated. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of contrast extravasation defined by computed tomography (CT) and angiography on massive transfusion and 30-day mortality in patients with acute bleeding undergoing transarterial embolization (TAE).

Objectives: Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) can cause radiation exposure and iodinated contrast material (ICM) damage. Here, we aimed to conclude the clinical benefits of image fusion (IF) guidance in EVAR in our center and share our experience on 0 ICM usage in magnetic resonance angiography (MRA)-IF-guided EVAR and explore its feasibility.

Methods: All patients who underwent EVAR at our center between January 2018 and December 2024 were included in this study.

Objective: A new topical desiccating agent (TDA; DEBRICHEM, DEBx Medical BV, the Netherlands) based on methanesulfonic acid (MSA) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) has proved to be an effective biofilm- and necrosis-removing chemical debridement option. However, its application can be temporarily accompanied by sharp pain perception, depending on the individual patient. This study aimed to assess application-associated pain and two strategies to manage this.

CT angiography (CTA) of the aortoiliofemoral (AIF) arteries in the abdomen, pelvis, and lower extremities has become an invaluable tool in assessment of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and lower extremity trauma. AIF CTA provides rapid and comprehensive assessment of arterial inflow and outflow, guiding management of patients with chronic claudication and those with more acute manifestations, including atherothrombotic occlusion, embolic disease, or thrombosis of prior interventions such as bypass graft or stent placement. Careful attention to technique is critical in performing diagnostic AIF CTA, as pitfalls related to imaging too early or too late relative to the arrival of contrast material in the legs can lead to misdiagnosis or diagnostic uncertainty.
