Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study to Evaluate a Cell-Impermeable Endoprosthesis for Treatment of Stenosis or Occlusion within the Dialysis Outflow Circuit of an Arteriovenous (AV) Fistula or AV Graft (The WRAP Registry)
This study was designed to assess real-world evidence of safety and efficacy outcomes following device placement.Materials and MethodsThis is a prospective, multicenter, non-investigational, post-market observational study of 500 patients at up to 50 centers worldwide with a mature AVF/AVG dialysis access ( ≥ 1 hemodialysis session) who experience stenosis/occlusion of the outflow circuit prior to placement of WRAPSODY. Patients will be divided into the following two cohorts: peripheral or central thoracic. Primary outcome measures include target lesion primary patency (TLPP) at 6 months and proce dure and/or device-r...

12Fr-Pigtail Versus 14Fr-Balloon Percutaneous Radiologic Gastrostomy (PRG), Retrospective Evaluation of Outcomes and Complications; A Maastricht University Medical Centre Study
Conclusion14Fr-balloon gastrostomy tubes have significantly lower (tube-related) complications rates and longer time to first complication compared to 12Fr-pigtail tubes. No procedure-related mortality was observed in either group. Technical success was very high in both groups.Level of Evidence Level 3, non-controlled retrospective cohort study.

Safety and Feasibility of Gun-Sight Technique for Transjugular Intra-hepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS) Creation
ConclusionGun-sight technique for TIPS creation has a high success rate in this challenging cohort of patients. While complications can occur, most of the adverse events noted were likely associated with TIPS creation itself rather than gun-sight. Early thrombosis only occurred in patients with PVT.Level of Evidence Level 4, Case Series.Graphic Abstract (Source: CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology)

Study Protocol STEREOLAB: Stereotactic Liver Ablation Assisted with Intra-Arterial CT Hepatic Arteriography and Ablation Confirmation Software Assessment
This study aims to evaluate the technical efficacy and local tumor progression-free survival (LTPFS) of a standardized workflow for thermal ablation of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) consisting of CT during hepatic arteriography (CTHA)-based imaging analysis, stereotactic thermal ablation, and computer-based software assessment of ablation margins.Materials and MethodsThis investigator initiated, single-center, single-arm prospective trial will enroll up to 50 patients ( ≤ 5 CRLM, Measuring ≤ 5 cm). Procedures will be performed in an angio-CT suite under general anesthesia. The primary objective is to estima...
