Article Abstract

Background: Hepatolithiasis is regarded as the presence of stones in the intrahepatic bile ducts. Recurrent inflammation of bile ducts can bring many bad effects. How to completely remove stones is still a challenge.

Presentation: A 66-year-old male went to our hospital because of hepatolithiasis and choledocholithiasis. Selective hepatic arteriography and transcatheter arterial embolization followed by laparoscopic watershed hepatectomy under fluorescent navigation and laparoscopic common bile duct exploration on mass removal are performed.

Clinical Discussion: For patients who suffer from hepatolithiasis, the main treatment principles of the operation are to remove the stones, correct the stenosis, and prevent recurrence. The laparoscopic watershed hepatectomy under fluorescent navigation can provide important support for precision liver surgery, which can give some suggestions for future hepatectomy.

Conclusion: Based on the three-dimensional (3D) visual watershed analysis, trans-arterial DSA positive fluorescence navigation has some advantages, which successfully overcome the shortcomings of the reverse staining method and the positive staining method.

Durable Long-Term Outcomes After Early Transcatheter Arterialization of the Deep Veins.

Background: Up to 20% of patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) are not eligible for conventional revascularization options despite having severe symptoms of nonhealing ulcers and gangrene. Transcatheter arterialization of the deep veins (TADV) has shown promising results in this challenging subset of patients.

Case Summary: We present the long-term outcomes of 4 patients with no-option CLTI who were at risk of major below-the-knee amputation and were treated with TADV with the LimFlow System (Inari Medical).

The effect of shape and size of embolic agents on embolization phenomena has been discussed clinically for transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). We numerically discussed the unique embolization behavior of new deformable toroidal microparticles in blood vessels by computational fluid dynamics simulations. We employed an Eulerian-Eulerian (full Eulerian) fluid-structure interaction (FSI) method to analyze the flow and deformation behaviors of a deformable torus in a cylindrical pipe.

Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided biliary drainage has been reported as an alternative technique when transpapillary endoscopic biliary drainage fails. This case study describes a case of pseudoaneurysm, one of the complications unique to endoscopic ultrasonography-guided biliary drainage. An 87-year-old woman who underwent endoscopic ultrasonography-guided hepaticojejunostomy with a partially covered metallic stent developed hematochezia.

Unlabelled: -butyl cyanoacrylate is a liquid embolic material used to treat bleeding. Rebleeding may occur after -butyl cyanoacrylate embolization due to vasospasm and dilation of the embolized artery. However, the impact of vasospasm on -butyl cyanoacrylate embolization has not been fully investigated.
