IntroductionFlow diverters (FD) are stent‐type devices that enable the exclusion of intracranial aneurysms in clinical scenarios where coil‐type devices exhibit high failure rates. Adults older than 18 with non‐ruptured intracranial aneurysms were included. years (±13.3). years (±13.3). Neck measurements were in the range of 1.9
BackgroundThe risk of limb graft occlusion (LGO) after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is increased by severe tortuosity of the iliac artery. Nonetheless, there were disparities in external iliac angioplasty between the two groups during the follow-up period (p < 0.05).ConclusionDeploying
After several patients in this series developed subarachnoid hemorrhage from a ruptured mycotic aneurysm, we proceeded to institute weekly cerebral angiography protocol. This detected moderate to severe vasospasm in 75%, and aneurysms in 58%, with the most common site being the basilar artery.
Of the 32 patients, 9(28.1%) had dissection with diagnostic angiograms, 6(18.8%) endovascular thrombectomy, 15(46.9%) aneurysm treatment, and 2(6.3%) angioplasty with or without stenting. Common comorbidities included hypertension (62.5%), smoking (56.3%), and hyperlipidemia (46.9%).
Introduction:Cerebral vasospasm is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Subjects were excluded if balloon angioplasty was performed prior to/within 2 days of the index procedure. Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP194-AWP194, February 1, 2024.
Persistent ST elevation 3 days after a nearly transmural MI portends possible LV aneurysm. It is very unlikely to be LV aneurysm morphology when the ST elevation is so high and the T-Wave inversion is so deep. Echo at this time showed some improvement in EF to 40%, but persistent akinesis and thrombus. Cath showed a 95% LAD with flow.

Circulation.
Repeat ECG at 1624 (shortly before cath): QS waves now present in V2-V3, with slight STE, showing the pattern of left ventricular aneurysm morphology. Upon arrival to the PCI center, the repeat troponin returned at 13,962 ng/L. Chest pain is documented as ongoing.
Aortic Aneurysms : An aneurysm is an abnormal bulge in a blood vessel wall. Vasculitis : Inflammation of blood vessels that can lead to organ damage or an aneurysm. Angioplasty & Stenting: Opens blocked arteries to improve blood flow. This can lead to a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke.
