1-Year Outcomes of Everolimus-Eluting Bioresorbable Scaffolds Versus Everolimus-Eluting Stents
2016
Abstract Objectives The purpose of this study was to compare the 1-year outcomes of the ABSORB everolimus-eluting bioresorbable scaffold (BRS) (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, California) and the XIENCE everolimus-eluting stent (EES) (Abbott Vascular) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Background Randomized studies of the ABSORB BRS have been performed in selected patient and lesion scenarios. The available registries of the ABSORB BRS reflect real-world practice more closely compared with randomized studies, but most of them are limited by the small sample size and the lack of comparative outcomes versus second-generation drug-eluting stents. Methods A total of 1,189 …

Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffolds (BVS) are the newest generation of stents for use during Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. However, as history has demonstrated, each development in stent technology has been associated with its own specific complications. With BVS, there are reports that recoil is
COVID‐19 and exacerbation of dermatological diseases: A review of the available literature
2021
Abstract Since the emergence of the new coronavirus disease 19 (COVID‐19) pandemic, there has been a concern for the patients with chronic autoimmune diseases including dermatological conditions over the potential exacerbation of these underlying conditions after infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus‐2 (SARS‐CoV2). We performed a systematic review to evaluate presentations, postinfection change in the manifestation, diagnosis, and management of flare‐ups of underlying dermatologic disease in patients with COVID‐19. A total of 17 articles were recovered reporting on flare‐ups of dermatological disease including pemphigus vulgaris, psoriasis, subacute cutaneous lupus er…

Derivation and Validation of a Chronic Total Coronary Occlusion Intervention Procedural Success Score From the 20,000-Patient EuroCTO Registry
2019
Abstract Objectives The aim was to establish a contemporary scoring system to predict the outcome of chronic total occlusion coronary angioplasty. Background Interventional treatment of chronic total coronary occlusions (CTOs) is a developing subspecialty. Predictors of technical success or failure have been derived from datasets of modest size. A robust scoring tool could facilitate case selection and inform decision making. Methods The study analyzed data from the EuroCTO registry. This prospective database was set up in 2008 and includes >20,000 cases submitted by CTO expert operators (>50 cases/year). Derivation (n = 14,882) and validation (n = 5,745) datasets were created to develop a …
Malignant metastatic melanoma to the gallbladder: Report of a peculiar case
2020
Highlights • Melanoma is one of the most aggressive and one of the fastest growing types of cancer. The gallbladder envolvement from a metastatic cutaneous malignant melanoma is a highly uncommon finding, usually associated with diffuse metastatic disease and observed during autopsy. • We report a case of a 35-years old Caucasian woman with isolated metastasis of gallbladder form cutaneous primary malignant melanoma underwent to laparoscopic cholecystectomy. • Malignant cutaneous melanoma is a skin cancer characterized by the highest mortality. Isolated metastasis of gallbladder are barely described and mostly present in a widespread metastatic disease. Surgical treatment is indicated consi…

Ureterosciatic Hernia A Rare Cause of Pyonephrosis
1989
A female patient presented as an emergency case with pyonephrosis and septicemia as a result of ureterosciatic hernia. Septicemia was treated successfully by immediate percutaneous nephrostomy tubing. After complete disappearance of symptoms, the hernia was closed operatively. Topographic anatomy of ureterosciatic hernia is presented.
