Early inadequate venous flow volume after technically successful balloon angioplasty of radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula: causes and follow-up results
CONCLUSIONS: Low venous flow after PTA has been primarily associated with free-floating thrombi. Routine post-procedural DUS detects low venous flow, high RI, and small thrombi, providing evidence to initiate medical treatment that may prevent early AVF re-dysfunction.PMID:37843321 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202310_33933 (Source: Pharmacological Reviews)

Angiography-based hemodynamic features predict recurrent ischemic events after angioplasty and stenting of intracranial vertebrobasilar atherosclerotic stenosis
ConclusionsIn patients with intracranial vertebrobasilar atherosclerosis treated with PTAS, preprocedural prolonged TTP of the target vessel and shortened trans-stenotic TTP difference were associated with stroke relapse. Q-DSA-defined hemodynamic parameters provided incremental predictive value over conventional parameters for stroke recurrence.Clinical relevance statementQuantitative DSA analysis enables intuitive observation and semi-quantitative evaluation of peri-therapeutic cerebral blood flow. More importantly, quantitative DSA –defined hemodynamic parameters have the potential for risk stratification of patients ...

Rare Case of Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia in a 32-Year-Old Patient with Nephrotic Syndrome: A Case Report
Int J Angiol DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1774739Chronic limb-threatening ischemia represents the end stage of peripheral artery disease (PAD), primarily affecting individuals over 60 years old. While quite rare, nephrotic syndrome (NS) is recognized for increasing the susceptibility to arterial thromboembolism (ATE). A 32-year-old male complained of resting pain in his left leg and pain after walking 50 meters with his right leg. He had a 9-year history of NS confirmed through biopsy and was on a daily regimen of 2 × 360 mg mycophenolic acid and 1 × 8 mg methylprednisolone. He had no history of hypertension, diabetes...

One-step solution for angioplasty, low-profile stent delivery, and intrastent dilation using a dual-lumen angioplasty balloon microcatheter: technical advances, limitations, outcomes, and literature review
AbstractDual-lumen angioplasty balloon microcatheters make it possible to perform percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), low-profile stent delivery, and intrastent dilation without the microcatheter exchange technique. This technique has shown many advantages in recent years. We reviewed the techniques and applications in different intracranial vascular diseases and summarized the outcomes and indications. Gateway dual-lumen angioplasty balloon was used for PTA and kept in situ. Stent was delivered and deployed via Gateway microcatheter. Intrastent balloon dilation was performed after stent deployment. We retrospecti...

Supervised Exercise Therapy Versus Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty for Claudication by Level of Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Treatment options for intermittent claudication (IC) owing to lower extremity peripheral arterial disease include conservative management with supervised exercise therapy (SET) and pharmacotherapy and invasive therapies to include endovascular or surgical revascularization.1 There is a knowledge gap around long-term outcomes between SET and endovascular therapy based upon anatomic level of stenotic disease. Specifically, aortoiliac and femoropopliteal endovascular revascularization have varying long-term patency rates, and understanding differences in outcomes by disease levels is important, especially with regard to patie...
