Femoral artery3
  • Color Doppler ultrasound showed no blood flow signal far from the RLE femoral artery. (bvsalud.org)
  • Computed tomography angiography showed an occlusion of the right common femoral artery. (bvsalud.org)
  • Femoral artery embolectomy was performed under local anesthesia, followed by thoracotomy with tumor resection under general anesthesia on postoperative day seven. (bvsalud.org)
Peripheral1
Lower extremity1
  • We introduce the rare case of a patient with left atrial myxoma (LAM) whose right lower extremity (RLE) suffered from acute ischemia due to tumor fragments, along with a review of the relevant literature, and highlight the clinical characteristics of LAM. (bvsalud.org)
Vascular1
  • Cases of vascular occlusions involving the retinal or ophthalmic circulation have also been described. (bvsalud.org)
Arterial1
  • The results obtained support that the proposed approach has great potential, not only for prompt detection of ischemia (in seconds), but also for clear differentiation between an arterial occlusion and venous occlusion. (bvsalud.org)
Right common1
  • Compression of the left common ILIAC VEIN by the right common ILIAC ARTERY against the underlying fifth LUMBAR VERTEBRA is the typical underlying malformation. (lookformedical.com)
Blood flow1
  • Embolization: Placement of a metallic coil or embolic substance (gel-foam, poly-vinyl alcohol) to block blood through to a blood vessel, either to stop bleeding or decrease blood flow to a target organ or tissue. (wikipedia.org)
Patients1
  • Here the authors discuss the presentation, workup, management, and postoperative care of patients with acute limb ischemia, with a focus on how management is altered depending on the duration and degree of ischemia. (bvsalud.org)
Management1
  • Management of acute limb ischemia is complex and time sensitive, and delays in diagnosis and treatment may lead to irreversible tissue damage. (bvsalud.org)
Ischemia10
  • Recognition of acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) before permanent tissue damage occurs is the best way of improving patient survival, and only angiography or exploratory surgery makes early diagnosis possible. (medscape.com)
  • In 2000, the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) released recommended algorithms for the diagnosis and management of mesenteric ischemia (see the images below). (medscape.com)
  • [ 73 ] However, these recommendations were formulated before the availability of improved data from multidetector CT, as a result of which CT now plays a larger role in the diagnosis of mesenteric ischemia. (medscape.com)
  • Diagnosis and treatment of intestinal ischemia (mesenteric venous thrombosis and major nonembolic arterial occlusion). (medscape.com)
  • Diagnosis and treatment of intestinal ischemia (minor arterial occlusion or embolus, major embolus, and splanchnic vasoconstriction without occlusion). (medscape.com)
  • Mesenteric ischemia is caused by stenosis of the mesenteric arteries and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. (heraldopenaccess.us)
  • However, there is limited data regarding the role of endovascular therapy in acute mesenteric ischemia. (heraldopenaccess.us)
  • The goal of this manuscript is to report a case of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with primary stenting for the treatment of an acute occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery and to discuss the role of endovascular treatment in acute mesenteric ischemia scenarios. (heraldopenaccess.us)
  • However, endovascular treatment may be considered in some situations: acute mesenteric ischemia without evidence of peritoneal irritation (early stage ischemia), in patients with a very high operative risk infection of the peritoneal cavity with no available autologous vessel for grafting or compassionate treatment. (heraldopenaccess.us)
  • Endovascular therapy has been increasingly applied in patients with Chronic Mesenteric Ischemia (CMeI) to avoid morbidities associated with open surgical repair since 1980 [1]. (heraldopenaccess.us)
Thrombolysis1
  • Uterine artery embolization (UAE) or uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) Prostate artery embolization (PAE) Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) embolization Thrombolysis: Catheter-directed technique for dissolving blood clots, such as pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis, with either pharmaceutical (TPA) or mechanical means. (wikipedia.org)
Stenosis4
  • AMI is an uncommon condition caused by the severe stenosis or occlusion of the mesenteric arteries. (heraldopenaccess.us)
  • However, usually this treatment is realized in an elective manner in order to treat chronic and stable stenosis of the mesenteric artery. (heraldopenaccess.us)
  • Finally, CMeI was suspected and an abdominal angiotomography was performed.An important stenosis of the ostial and proximal portion of the mesenteric artery was observed (Figures 1 and 2). (heraldopenaccess.us)
  • Indications for reintervention in the CAA group included stenosis (n = 5), pseudoaneurysm (n = 2), reinfection (n = 2), occlusion (n = 2), rupture (n = 1), and graft-limb kinking (n = 1). (bvsalud.org)
Tissue1
  • Embolization: Placement of a metallic coil or embolic substance (gel-foam, poly-vinyl alcohol) to block blood through to a blood vessel, either to stop bleeding or decrease blood flow to a target organ or tissue. (wikipedia.org)
Diagnosis1
  • An Aortic and Mesenteric angiographywas indicated in order to confirm diagnosis and program appropriate treatment. (heraldopenaccess.us)
Vessel1
  • A key goal of the therapy in acute mesenteric artery occlusions is to rapidly reestablish blood flow into the vessel and to assess the viability of the ischemic bowel segment. (heraldopenaccess.us)
