Article Abstract

This case report presents a clinical case of management of a patient with concomitant ischemic stroke and acute arterial ischemia of the right upper limb. Emergency thrombaspiration from the middle cerebral artery improved the patient's neurological status. A hybrid intervention was carried out to restore blood flow in the right upper limb: brachial artery arteriotomy with thrombectomy through an open approach combined with endovascular recanalisation and balloon angioplasty of the forearm arteries. The comprehensive approach, incorporating endovascular and traditional vascular surgery techniques, resulted in a successful clinical outcome and avoided serious complications. This case highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and timely intervention in treating complex cardiovascular pathologies.

Background: In Canada, the Indigenous population is the youngest and fastest growing, yet ongoing health disparities for Indigenous peoples are widely recognized. There is a concerning lack of research on childhood disabilities and health conditions in Indigenous populations in Canada. For children with disabilities and chronic health conditions, ongoing access to rehabilitation services, such as occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech-language pathology, and audiology, is critical in promoting positive health and developmental outcomes.

Background: Electronic health records (EHRs) are a cornerstone of modern health care delivery, but their current configuration often fragments information across systems, impeding timely and effective clinical decision-making. In gynecological oncology, where care involves complex, multidisciplinary coordination, these limitations can significantly impact the quality and efficiency of patient management. Few studies have examined how EHR systems support clinical decision-making from the perspective of end users.

Background: Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are rare catecholamine-secreting neuroendocrine tumors originating from the embryonic neural crest. Approximately 30% of PPGLs are hereditary and are frequently associated with genetic syndromes, including neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Composite PPGLs, which include components of both PPGLs and related tumors such as ganglioneuromas, are extremely rare in NF1 patients.
