Virtual Patient-Specific Thrombectomies: The Impact of the Vessel Morphology
Objective: The endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) procedure is the most effective treatment for large vessel occlusions (LVO) in acute ischaemic stroke. EVT is a minimally invasive procedure aiming at mechanically removing the thrombus obstructing the cerebral artery by means of a stent retriever. The cerebral arteries mostly affected by stroke are the internal carotid artery (ICA), the middle cerebral artery (MCA), and the anterior cerebral artery (ACA), which form the T-junction (Fig. 1A). The ICA is characterised by a tortuous morphology, referred to as carotid siphon, which can complicate the thrombectomy procedure during...

A systematic review and meta-analysis of carotid artery stenting for the treatment of cervical carotid artery dissection
CONCLUSION: Both primary stenting and stenting of spontaneous CAD yielded unfavorable results regarding stent thrombosis and stroke rates. Conversely, stenting following FMT displayed acceptable mortality and complication rates corroborating the use of stenting in the setting of CAD as a second line treatment. Due to the low quality of the included studies, definite conclusions cannot be drawn necessitating further research.PMID:35961627 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2022.07.048

Adverse Outcomes Associated With Elective Knee Arthroscopy: A Population-Based Cohort Study
Conclusions: Our study found 6.4 adverse outcomes per 1,000 elective knee arthroscopy procedures (0.64%), with the 3 most common complications being DVT, effusion and synovitis, and PE. We have also identified risk factors for adverse outcomes, particularly chronic kidney disease, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, and cancer.Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective cohort study.

The role of completion imaging following carotid artery endarterectomy
A variety of completion imaging methods can be used during carotid endarterectomy to recognize technical errors or intrinsic abnormalities such as mural thrombus or platelet aggregation, but none of these methods has achieved wide acceptance, and their ability to improve the outcome of the operation remains a matter of controversy.It is unclear if completion imaging is routinely necessary and which abnormalities require re-exploration. Proponents of routine completion imaging argue that identification of these abnormalities will allow their immediate correction and avoid a perioperative stroke. However, much of the evidenc...

Utility of internal jugular vein reconstruction in modified radical neck dissection.
Abstract The benefits to modified radical neck dissection (MRND) are established but the procedure involves substantial neck dissection with occasional resection of the internal jugular vein (IJV). Loss of the IJV is associated with morbidity including increased cerebral edema, stroke, laryngeal edema, blindness, facial fullness, and dural thrombosis. This paper discusses the morbidity associated with MRND, especially regarding venous outflow concerns and technical approaches to IJV reconstruction. Patients who have previously undergone MRND may benefit from immediate reconstruction and/or reanastomosis of the IJV...

Raised haematocrit concentration and the risk of death and vascular complications after major surgery

The Validity of CHADS2 Score as a Predictor of De Novo Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Adult Cardiac Surgery Patients
Occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) following cardiac surgery portends higher mortality and is associated with increased costs and risk of thromboembolism. While many anatomic and patient factors have been associated with AF, a simple clinical scoring system to identify patients at high risk of developing AF is lacking. The CHADS2 score is widely utilized to predict the risk of stroke in patients with AF. We aimed to assess the utility of this scoring algorithm in predicting the likelihood of de novo postoperative AF in cardiac surgery patients.

Posterior transverse plication of the internal carotid artery to correct for kinking
Conclusions: Although the indications for additional shortening procedures following CEA need to be defined, in this small series, PTP as an additional shortening procedure of the ICA following CEA seems feasible and safe with no additional periprocedural risk for narrowing at the plicature or thrombosis of the endarterectomy plane. However, restenosis at the plicature may hamper the long term benefit of carotid reconstruction.

Follow-up outcomes of hybrid procedures for thoracoabdominal aortic pathologies with special focus on graft patency and late mortality
Conclusions: A hybrid procedure for thoracoabdominal aortic pathologies in high-risk patient is feasible but carries a significant rate of early and midterm reintervention and death. Long-term surveillance of the visceral bypass is necessary because one-third of the patients will have bypass-related complications.

Perioperative morbidity and mortality after noncardiac surgery in young adults with congenital or early acquired heart disease: a retrospective cohort analysis of the national surgical quality improvement program database.
Abstract An increasing number of patients with congenital heart disease survive to adulthood. Expert opinion suggests that noncardiac surgery is a high-risk event, but few data describe perioperative outcomes in this population. Using the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database, we identified a cohort of patients aged 18 to 39 years with prior heart surgery who underwent noncardiac surgery between 2005 and 2010. A comparison cohort with no prior cardiovascular surgery was matched on age, sex, race/ethnicity, operation year, American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status, and Current Procedura...
