TCT-282 Risk Factors Associated with Adverse Events during Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Interventions: A sub-Analysis of the OPEN-CT…

2016

Coronary chronic total occlusions (CTOs) are prevalent and the development of the hybrid approach to CTO PCI has been associated with increased technical success rates. However, the incidence and predictors of adverse events (AEs) during CTO PCI remains poorly defined. We analyzed baseline patient

Upper-Extremity Blocks

1988

Brachial plexus block was first performed in 1885 by William Steward Halsted, who used cocaine and direct exposure of the roots in the neck to accomplish the block. In 1911, Hirschel and Kulenkampff described the first percutaneous brachial plexus block by the axillary and supraclavicular routes respectively. Since these historic reports, the efficacy of brachial plexus block has been confirmed, and the block is now commonly used to provide upperextremity anesthesia.

The percutaneous treatment of Patent Foramen Ovale, an effective and safe therapeutic choice

2013

Introduction: The aim of our study is to evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of the percutaneous closure of PFO (abnormal communication between the right and left atrium). Methods: Between July 2009 and October 2012 percutaneous closure was performed in 37 patients. The presence of PFO was diagnosed through the use of ultrasound techniques: transcranial doppler with contrast (cTCD), transthoracic echocardiography(TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Follow-up was composed consisted of a Holter ECG 7 days after the closure with a 24 hour heart rhythm monitoring, to evaluate eventual arrhythmia cases and programmed controls which included a TTE at 1-3 months, TTE+ cTCD a…

Update in the Percutaneous Management of Coronary Chronic Total Occlusions

2018

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusions (CTOs) has been rapidly evolving during recent years. With improvement in equipment and techniques, high success rates can be achieved at experienced centers, although overall success rates remain low. Prospective, randomized-controlled data regarding optimal use and indications for CTO PCI remain limited. CTO PCI should be performed when the anticipated benefit exceeds the potential risk. New high-quality studies of the clinical outcomes and techniques of CTO PCI are needed, as is the expansion of expert centers and operators that can achieve excellent clinical outcomes in this challenging patient and lesion subgroup. In…

Incidence, Risk Factors and Management of Symptomatic Lymphoceles after Radical Retropubic Prostatectomy

2017

Abstract Introduction We investigated the incidence, clinical course and risk factors for symptomatic lymphoceles after radical retropubic prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection. Moreover, we explored parameters for the failure of percutaneous lymphocele drainage. Methods The incidence of symptomatic lymphoceles in patients with prostate cancer who underwent radical retropubic prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection in our department between 2008 and 2013 was investigated retrospectively. The occurrence of lymphoceles was correlated with several clinical and histopathological parameters. In addition, logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the value of independ…

Percutaneous puncture of an aorto‐bifemoral bypass graft and successful closure with MANTA ® device in transfemoral TAVR

2021

Transfemoral aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a standard therapeutic option for patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. Special anatomies can pose distinct challenges for vascular access and later closure of the access site, for example, in preoperated patients. Here, we elucidate a case of transfemoral TAVR with vascular access by direct puncture of an aorto-bifemoral bypass graft and illustrate the feasibility of vascular closure by an anchored collagen-plug vascular closure device (Teleflex MANTA® ).

Angioplastie der Arteria subclavia: Technik, Früh- und Spätergebnisse

2008

Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) was performed in 22 patients (13 women and nine men; mean age 57 years [44-74] ) with symptomatic obstruction of the subclavian artery which was due to arteriosclerotic stenosis in 14, occlusion in six patients, radiogenic multiple stenoses in one (after radiotherapy for breast cancer), and stenoses of the left and right subclavian artery in one patient with Takayasu's arteritis. Primary success occurred in 21 (91%). The only complication was a stenosis of the brachial artery after combined brachiofemoral recanalization of a subclavian artery occlusion, but it did not require treatment. No emboli were noted. A good long-term result was achieved in…
