Presented in the article is a literature review making it possible to assess the risks and consequences of amputations in patients with PAD, as well as to determine therapy capable of improving the prognosis.Analysed in the article is a clinical case report regarding a female patient suffering from chronic abdominal pain and undergoing treatment for a disease with the respective clinical pattern. The initially determined cause of pain turned out either erroneous or was not the only correct one. During examination based on the physical findings she was suspected as having chronic abdominal ischaemia syndrome. Imaging techniques made it possible to verify and confirm the presence of severe concomitant pathology of the visceral branches of the abdominal aorta multiple aneurysms of visceral arteries and occlusion of the celiac trunk. We present the protocol of the operative intervention, also demonstrating the outcomes of surgical treatment, postoperative follow up, and control examination. This is followed by description of the remaining aneurysms and the results of repeat treatment.Hereditary thrombophilia is rare pathology giving rise to a ninefold increase in the risk for the development of thromboembolism in infants. The problem is multifactorial and characterized by high mortality, especially in neonates. Infants who develop thrombosis, particularly those with no family history, are often subjected to testing for hereditary thrombophilia. However, genetic testing for thrombophilia does not change the plan of treatment but makes it possible to perform prevention of thrombosis within the risk periods for the patient. Poor awareness of paediatricians, the complexity of carrying out genetic testing, the absence of approaches supported by evidence-based medicine due to shortage of high-quality clinical trials and no guidelines on prevention of thromboembolism in infants, as well as the frequent occurrence of diversified causes and diseases in different age groups make the problem significant for modern medicine. Further studies are needed to address many unanswered as yet questions.This article describes a rare clinical and diagnostic case report regarding a female patient presenting with frequent transitory attacks in the basin of both middle cerebral arteries. Based on the findings of duplex scanning of the cervical arteries we revealed floating structures with the presence of pronounced slow turbulent blood flow. After excluding all known causes of cerebral artery microembolism, associated with heart pathology or with the presence of unstable atherosclerotic plaques, the leading hypothesis of transitory ischaemic attacks in the woman concerned was the formation of microthrombi in the zone of motility of the structures revealed. The results of bitemporal transcranial Doppler monitoring carried out during 30 minutes detected more than 10 microembolic signals in the middle cerebral artery, thus confirming the embolic nature of transitory ischaemic attacks.A false aneurysm of the axillary artery is an extremely rare complication of a lesion of this vessel. As few as several dozens of similar cases have been described in the available literature. We herein report a clinical case concerning surgical treatment of a 41-year-old patient who after a knife-inflicted injury had developed a 66x67 mm pseudoaneurysm of the axillary artery. The treatment consisted of several stages, thus requiring 2 hospitalizations. The first stage included an attempt to resect the aneurysm in an open fashion, followed by deployment of stent grafts in the axillary artery to exclude the aneurysm from circulation. The second stage consisted in elimination of the aneurysmal cavity, followed by decompression of the branches of the brachial plexus and the axillary vein. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 10 after the second surgical intervention.
To assess in-hospital outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting in patients with acute coronary syndrome, depending on the presence or absence of myocardial infarction.
Over the period from 2017 to 2018 within the framework of a single-centre register, the study enrolled a total of 166 consecutive patients admitted with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome and subjected to coronary artery bypass grafting. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/vu0463271.html Depending on the outcome of acute coronary syndrome, the patients were divided into 2 groups Group One included 98 (59%) patients with unstable angina pectoris and Group Two comprised 68 (41%) patients with myocardial infarction, who underwent surgery at an average of 16 (11; 20) days after manifestation of the clinical signs of myocardial infarction. The endpoints of the study were major adverse cardiovascular events during the in-hospital period death, myocardial infarction, acute cerebral circulation impairment/transitory ischaemic attack, repeat revascularization, septic complications, n.
The obtained in-hospital outcomes suggest that coronary artery bypass grafting may be an efficient and safe method of complete revascularization for patients with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome, including that resulting in myocardial infarction, performed averagely on day 16 (11; 20) after the onset of clinical manifestations of myocardial infarction.
According to a series of studies, performing coronary endarterectomy in direct myocardial revascularization increases the risk of myocardial infarction and in-hospital mortality. There are no commonly accepted indications for carrying out endarterectomy, and in clinical practice this technique is used in severe diffuse lesions of coronary arteries.
The study was aimed at assessing in-hospital clinical outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with the use of endarterectomy in patients with severe multiple diffuse lesions of coronary arteries.
This was a single-centre retrospective study enrolling a total of 205 patients presenting with multiple diffuse lesions and subjected to CABG procedures. Of these, after excluding those with severe concomitant pathology (n=28), 177 were enrolled and divided into 2 groups 76 patients during formation of a coronary anastomosis were subjected to forced endarterectomy from the native channel (Group 1, n=76) and the remaining patients to prolonged anastomosis and/or bypass grafting of distal branches of the diffusely damaged artery (Group 2, n=101).
