Collected World Experience About the Performance of the Snorkel/Chimney Endovascular Technique in the Treatment of Complex Aortic Pathologies
2015
OBJECTIVES: We sought to analyze the collected worldwide experience with use of snorkel/chimney endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for complex abdominal aneurysm treatment. BACKGROUND: EVAR has largely replaced open surgery worldwide for anatomically suitable aortic aneurysms. Lack of availability of fenestrated and branched devices has encouraged an alternative strategy utilizing parallel or snorkel/chimney grafts (ch-EVAR). METHODS: Clinical and radiographic information was retrospectively reviewed and analyzed on 517 patients treated by ch-EVAR from 2008 from 2014 by prearranged defined and documented protocols. RESULTS: A total of 119 patients in US centers and 398 in European centers …
Endoluminal Stent-Graft Relining of Visceral Artery Bypass Grafts to Treat Perigraft Seroma
2013
PURPOSE: To describe the endovascular treatment of intra-abdominal perigraft seromas associated with small-caliber expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) grafts. CASE REPORTS: Two patients who underwent hybrid repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms in which renovisceral bypass grafts were implanted presented with large, symptomatic perigraft seromas. The 5- to 8-mm-diameter ePTFE bypass grafts believed to be involved in the seromas were successfully relined with self-expanding Viabahn stent-grafts in percutaneous procedures. The patients' symptoms were relieved, and imaging follow-up (18 and 10 months, respectively) has shown near complete resorption of the seromas. CONCLUSION: It is…
A late diagnosis of aortic coarctation began as an acute coronary syndrome
2014
Abstract Aortic coarctation accounts the 5%–10% of congenital heart disease. It is usually diagnosed during childhood but the postductal form is most common in adults and may be diagnosed incidentally in the context of investigation for hypertension. The age of correction is the most important factor for the relief of hypertension and long-term survival. We describe a case of a 63-year-old man, came to our emergency room for acute coronary syndrome. Cardiac catheterization with right femoral artery access was performed but for many difficulties during the introduction of catheters was therefore performed aortography that showed an interruption "a cul de sac" at the level of the descending t…
Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic: Portal hypertensive biliopathy presenting as acute cholangitis

Acute aortic dissection
2011
An acute aortic syndrome with simultaneous presence of a penetrating aortic ulcer, an intramural haematoma, a thoracic aortic dissection and an abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture has not previously been reported. Herein, we describe our experience with a patient treated by endovascular means with an 8-year follow-up.
Drei-Phasen-Spiral-CT in der Diagnostik von Lebererkrankungen: Vergleich mit CT-Arteriographie und -Arterioportographie
1996
PURPOSE Assessment of the diagnostic efficacy of triphasic spiral-CT scanning (TPS-CT) for liver disease evaluation. CT arteriography (CTA) and CT arterio-portography (CTAP) were used as reference, methods which together have the highest sensitivity for detecting tumours and the perfusion conditions of the liver. MATERIAL AND METHODS 50 TPS-CT and CTA/CTPA were performed in 49 patients. After an initial examination without enhancement the first scan was initiated 15-25s after the peripheral bolus injection of contrast medium, the second after an interscan delay of 20-25s. By this means the liver was imaged in different phases of perfusion. In the course of the CTA/CTPA-exam the imaging was …
Unkarinkielisten nimien oikeinkirjoitus Helsingin Sanomissa
2010
Johdanto: Suomenkielisessä lehdistössä esiintyy erittäin vähän unkarinkielisiä elementtejä. Jos niitä esiintyy, ovat ne poikkeuksetta nimiä. Tässä työssä kartoitan Suomen luetuimmassa sanomalehdessä, Helsingin Sanomissa esiintyviä unkarilaisia nimiä. Aineistoni koostuu 1997 syyskuun ja 1998 tammikuun välillä esiintyneestä 109j:stä nimestä. Pienoistutkielmani näkökulma on selvittää kyseisten nimien oikeinkirjoitusvirheitä sekä pohtia niiden syitä. Aluksi kartoitan unkarilaisten nimien kielenhuollollisia ongelmakohtia (luku 2). Sitten esittelen aineistoa (luku 3). Analyysissa tutkin virheiden esiintymistiheyttä ja erilaisia virhetyyppejä (luku 4). Lopuksi pohdin tulosten merkitystä (luku 5). …
