BackgroundDouble aortic arch (DAA) with type B aortic dissection in adults is a rare aortic vascular disease. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) indicated a double aortic arch anomaly with localized dissection of the descending aorta.
Getty Images milla1cf Mon, 06/17/2024 - 20:41 June 17, 2024 — Medtronic launched the Steerant Aortic Guidewire, tailored to facilitate catheter placement and exchange during diagnostic or interventional procedures in the aorta. The guidewire has a 0.035 in (0.89 mm) diameter.
announced that the first patients have been enrolled in the Gore VBX FORWARD Clinical Study ( NCT05811364 ), a global prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial to compare the GORE VIABAHN VBX Balloon Expandable Endoprosthesis (VBX Stent Graft) to bare metal stenting for patients with complex iliac occlusive disease. "Our
ObjectiveSpinal cord ischemia due to damage or occlusion of the orifices of aortic segmental arteries (ASA) is a serious complication of open and endovascular aortic repair. Furthermore, it aids in planning and conducting safe aortic intervention and assists in deciding on single- or two-staged stent graft procedures.
Diagnostic cardiac catheterization may be needed especially in tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia, to assess the pulmonary anatomy, including size and distribution of peripheral pulmonary arteries. Stenting of the patent ductus arteriosus can be considered in neonatal period for improving oxygen saturation till corrective surgery.
has limited use in deep vision of coronary wall anatomy and histology. Now is the era of Optics If a torch light can illuminate and give us vision in absolute darkness ,how about acquiring a deep vision with scattered light ie photons. Jnana-Chakshush ,third eye of Hindu God Shiva ?) As of now it has no role to play in catheter guidance.
We aimed to develop a 3D printed ICAD model including realistic features to provide an optimal simulation phantom for research and training purposes.MethodsStereolithography 3D printing technique was used to create a resin neurovascular model based on vascular anatomies extracted from anonymized CTA images.
60-something with h/o MI and stents presented with chest pain radiating to the back and nausea/vomiting. There was concern for aortic dissection, so a CT was done and was negative. It was stented. The patient had a p rior h istory of MI + stents. Time zero What do you think? There is inferior ST elevation. Pericarditis?
His initial high sensitivity troponin I returned at 1300 ng/L and given that his cardiac workup was otherwise unremarkable, a CT was obtained to evaluate for pulmonary embolism and aortic aneurysm or dissection but this too was unrevealing. Another EKG was also obtained. ECG at time 82 minutes: What do you think?
