Case Report: Combined transcatheter arterial embolization and aortic stent-graft have better efficacy for bronchial artery aneurysms

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Bronchial artery aneurysm (BAA) is a rare and fatal condition that requires immediate treatment. However, conventional surgical and transcatheter arterial embolization treatments are less effective. The patient's clinical status was stable during the 4-year follow-up.

Abstract 172: Outcomes and Complications of Stent?Assisted Aneurysm Repair in Acute Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

IntroductionThe use of detachable coils for endovascular embolization of cerebral aneurysms has become a safe and effective alternative to direct surgical clipping in patients with ruptured aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. The post‐procedural complication rate proved to be higher than in non‐ruptured stent‐assisted coiling.

Abstract 171: Embolization of non?ruptured intracranial aneurysms with flow diverter devices in Mexico: Quick responses

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

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).

Abstract 177: Clinical and Imaging Outcomes of Ophthalmic Aneurysm Flow Diversion with or without Adjunctive Coiling

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

IntroductionFlow diversion (FD) is commonly used for the treatment of aneurysms involving the ophthalmic segment of the carotid artery (COA). The origin of the ophthalmic artery (OA) in relation to the aneurysm sac can affect recurrence and complications. directly from the aneurysm fundus, B. aneurysm neck, C.

Abstract 173: A Case Series of Basilar Tip Aneurysm Endovascular Treatment – The Barrow Neurological Institute Experience

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

IntroductionBasilar‐tip aneurysm (BTA) is the most common aneurysm found in the posterior circulation, representing 5–8% of total intracranial aneurysms. Coil embolization (CE) is safer and more efficacious in the treatment of BTAs compared to open surgery but has increased rate of recanalization. vs. 10.7%).

Acute Dyspnea and Right Bundle Branch Block

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

It is of an elderly woman who complained of shortness of breath and had a recent stent placed. Ken (below) is appropriately worried about pulmonary embolism from the ECG. LV aneurysm has QS-waves, so this couldn't be LV aneurysm, right? RBBB makes it mandatory that there are R'-waves even in the presence of LV aneurysm.
