Lymphocutaneous fistulas are an uncommon occurrence that can present after surgical intervention in lymphatic-rich areas. A spontaneous lymphatic leak can occur in conjunction with lymphedema or in the vicinity of venous stasis ulcers. However, spontaneous lymphocutaneous fistulas are extremely rare. Traditional treatments have included surgical ligation, negative pressure therapy, and embolization. We present the case of a lymphocutaneous fistula secondary to chronic venous stasis, which was treated via injection of autologous blood and subsequent thrombosis. In the present case report, we have demonstrated successful embolization of a lymphatic vessel via autologous blood injection, a nontraditional technique that, nonetheless, yielded positive and lasting results.Patients with a large patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) can have several presentations. Many will be asymptomatic, some could develop severe pulmonary hypertension, and others can develop Eisenmenger syndrome. We have presented a case in which a PDA correction device was embolized to the abdominal aorta, 2 months after transcatheter closure of a large PDA. The patient presented with an acute abdomen. In the management of the case, we implemented a hybrid technique in the process of device retrieval. Transbrachial access and a lower abdominal midline incision were accomplished to dislodge the device from the supraceliac aorta to the aortic bifurcation. The Amplatzer Ductal Occluder (St Jude Medical Inc, St Paul, Minn) was extracted through a small arteriotomy of the distal abdominal aorta. The procedure was followed by a dramatic improvement of the ischemic liver and bowel, evidenced by the vanishing of the cyanotic hue of the liver and normalization of the bluish discoloration of the intestine.Endovascular treatment for post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm (PsA) has been deemed effective and minimally invasive. However, embolization of all feeding and outflow vessels is difficult if multiple fine arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are present. In the present case, PsA of the medial plantar artery with AVF was diagnosed 1 month after injury by a rusty nail. Treatment using a combination of embolization of only the main feeding artery and percutaneous thrombin injection into PsA was successful. This approach can completely resolve PsA in narrow vessels, such as in the foot, particularly when AVF is present with numerous connected vessels.This is a case of a 4-cm left extrathoracic subclavian artery aneurysm (SCAA) in a 58-year-old man with an aortic root and abdominal aortic aneurysm. The patient had features suggestive of genetic arteriopathy, including vertebral artery tortuosity, pectus excavatum, tall stature, and scoliosis. Eganelisib nmr The SCAA was successfully repaired with an inline prosthetic graft and anastomotic pledgets via a supraclavicular approach. Genetic testing revealed an FBN1 pathogenic variant consistent with Marfan syndrome. Repair is satisfactory 2 years later. link= Eganelisib nmr Patients with SCAA should include consideration of genetic arteriopathy. Open repair of the extrathoracic SCAA in Marfan syndrome is recommended.Aortic injury is a frequently encountered condition that can present as a life-threatening emergency. When this injury occurs in the retroperitoneal portion of the aorta, it can be difficult to diagnose and treat because of the location. Although surgical repair remains the mainstay of treatment, surgery might not be an option for some patients. We have presented a case of a 54-year-old nonoperative candidate who had experienced iatrogenic retroperitoneal abdominal aortic rupture with pseudoaneurysm formation. The patient was successfully treated with the novel use of a proven technique direct percutaneous embolization of the pseudoaneurysm sac via a translumbar approach under image guidance.A 74-year-old man with diabetes and end-stage renal failure on regular dialysis required revascularization for gangrene of multiple toes and a heel ulcer on the right foot with chronic limb-threatening ischemia. However, the anterior tibial artery, posterior tibial artery, and peroneal artery, which are the usual targets below the knee, showed obstruction or calcification and were considered inappropriate bypass targets. link2 Instead, a collateral artery developed along the area of the posterior tibial artery, and bypass surgery was performed with this artery. This is a case report showing successful collateral artery bypass grafting in the distal infrapopliteal segment.Endoleaks are a frequent indication for reintervention after endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Here we present a method of open repair of a persistent type II endoleak involving graft component separation and reconstruction, in a patient with symptomatic interval aneurysmal sac enlargement despite endovascular coiling and embolization. This case report demonstrates an alternative open technique of endograft component separation and reconstruction that may be required in cases where open repair with sac exploration and vessel oversewing is hindered by the graft position.Patients with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) still have high mortality. Rapid diagnosis and treatment are vital for improving survival outcomes. rAAA management has evolved regarding these factors. We have reported the case of a 70-year-old man with an rAAA that was rapidly diagnosed and treated in a hybrid emergency room (ER). A hybrid ER is an integrated ER capable of computed tomography scanning, interventional radiology, and surgery in one place. In the present case, the door-to-intervention time was 35 minutes. The use of hybrid ERs has the potential to enhance the speed and quality of diagnostic and definitive treatment of rAAAs.Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is a life-saving treatment for blunt thoracic aortic injury. We report long-term outcomes of two young patients who underwent TEVAR for blunt thoracic aortic injury with first-generation thoracic stent grafts. The off-label use of the endograft affected the outcomes one case of open surgery conversion due to an aortoesophageal fistula and one case of endovascular relining for a voluminous pseudoaneurysm associated with a type III endoleak. Long-term follow-up is crucial in TEVAR, especially in case of a first-generation device used in an urgent setting.Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) type 3 results from a SMAD3 mutation and is a phenotypically milder variant of LDS with frequent aortic, visceral, and cerebral vascular pathologies and osteoarthritis. link2 Historically, endovascular treatment (endovascular aortic repair [EVAR]) of LDS-related aortic aneurysmal disease with traditional modular bifurcated devices has been limited owing to concerns regarding continued aortic dilation at proximal fixation sites. Furthermore, associated dissection pathology has also precluded traditional modular bifurcated EVAR owing to inadequate proximal infrarenal necks and narrow distal aortic domains leading to compromised contralateral gate opening and cannulation as well as limb flow compromise. To address these barriers to EVAR, we present our approach for the endovascular treatment of a dissecting pararenal abdominal aortic aneurysm using an anatomically fixated, bifurcated, unibody aortic stent graft in a patient with LDS-3.In cases of complex aortic arch anatomy, it can be difficult to obtain wire access into the ascending aorta for deployment of a thoracic endograft (thoracic endovascular aortic repair [TEVAR]) using a transfemoral approach. This can result from tortuosity or patulous aneurysmal areas, making platform stability difficult. We report the case of a young adult man with a large proximal left subclavian aneurysm that made zone 0 TEVAR placement very difficult with transfemoral access alone. Direct ascending aortic access through the open chest allowed for a stable through-and-through platform for endograft delivery, highlighting the efficacy of this seldom-needed technique during debranching TEVAR procedures.Resection of Shamblin II and III carotid body tumors can be challenging owing to the potential for significant blood loss. Prophylactic use of liquid embolic agents poses a risk of inflammatory reactions and nontarget embolization. On the other hand, coil embolization has traditionally been limited to cases involving external carotid artery sacrifice. Herein we demonstrate that superselective targeting of tumor-feeding vessels using platinum based, fully detachable packing coils is effective at sustained devascularization of Shamblin II and III carotid body tumors without subsequent inflammation, allowing for a longer interval between embolization and tumor resection, and potentially reducing blood loss without need for ligation or reconstruction of the internal or external carotid artery.The plant primary cell wall is comprised of pectin, cellulose and hemicelluloses, whose dynamic interactions play essential roles in plant cell elongation. Through a chemical genetics screening, we identified a small molecule, named cell wall modulator (CWM), which disrupted cell growth and deformed cell shape in etiolated Arabidopsis hypocotyl. link3 A pectin defective mutant qua2, identified from screening an Arabidopsis EMS mutant library, showed a reduced sensitivity to CWM treatment. link3 On the other hand, pectinase treatment suppressed the CWM induced phenotype. Furthermore, cellulose content was decreased in response to CWM treatment, while the cellulose synthesis mutants ixr1 and ixr2 were hypersensitive to CWM. Together, the study identified a small molecule CWM that induced a modification of the cell wall in elongating cells, likely through interfering with pectin modification. This molecule may be used as a tool to study cell wall remodeling during plant growth.Bacterial infections are the most eminent public health challenge of the 21st century. Eganelisib nmr The primary step leading to infection is bacterial adhesion to the surface of host cells or medical devices, which is mediated by a multitude of molecular interactions. At the interface of life sciences and physics, last years advances in atomic force microscopy (AFM)-based force spectroscopy techniques have made possible to measure the forces driving bacteria-cell and bacteria-materials interactions on a single molecule/cell basis (single molecule/cell force spectroscopy). Among the bacteria-(bio)materials surface interactions, the life-threatening infections associated to medical devices involving Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli are the most eminent. On the other hand, Pseudomonas aeruginosa binding to the pulmonary and urinary tract or the Helicobacter pylori binding to the gastric mucosa, are classical examples of bacteria-host cell interactions that end in serious infections. As we approach the end of the antibiotic era, acquisition of a deeper knowledge of the fundamental forces involved in bacteria - host cells/(bio)materials surface adhesion is crucial for the identification of new ligand-binding events and its assessment as novel targets for alternative anti-infective therapies. This article aims to highlight the potential of AFM-based force spectroscopy for new targeted therapies development against bacterial infections in which adhesion plays a pivotal role and does not aim to be an extensive overview on the AFM technical capabilities and theory of single molecule force spectroscopy.
