ECG-gated multislice computed tomography angiography as a comprehensive non-invasive imaging tool in patient with aortic coarctation
2021
We describe a case of a 52-year-old-woman with aortic coarctation demonstrated by means of 40-slice MSCT angiography. Based on the information extracted from MSCT it was possible to display the anatomical configuration of the disease, the thoraco-abdominal collateral pathways. The best therapeutic approach was established on the basis of MSCT findings. MSCT is a reliable and comprehensive tool for the assessment of adult patients with aortic coarctation.

European experience with the retrograde approach for the recanalization of coronary artery chronic total occlusions. A report on behalf of the EuroCT…
2008
Aims Recanalisation rates of coronary chronic total occlusions (CTO) remain sub-optimal. The retrograde technique was recently introduced to improve success rates. Methods and results From February 2005 until December 2007, 175 patients were treated with this technique in seven European centres by highly experienced operators: in 84 (48%) as primary strategy, in 41 (23.5%) immediately after antegrade failure and in 50 (28.5%) as a repeat procedure after previous antegrade failure. Baseline characteristics revealed a mean age 61.4 +/- 10.8 years with 29.5% and 39% of patients having diabetes and a prior history of MI, respectively. The mean occlusion duration was 50.8 months (determined in 3…
L’escussione stragiudiziale accelerata delle garanzie reali nella proposta di Direttiva sui crediti deteriorati (NPL)

The Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on credit servicers, credit purchasers and the recovery of collateral aims to reach the goal of improving the secondary market of Non Performing Loans also through a Non-judicial Enforcement that should consent creditors to enforce collaterals faster than pursuing judicial remedies. The Paper discusses this desired objective highlighting how it lacks of attention for third party creditors and how it seems still leaving room for a judicial intervention to ensure their rights.
