Open Access DOI:10.23937/2690-3164/1710012 Critical Limb Ischaemia for Thrombosed Common Femoral Artery Aneurysm: A Successful Hybrid Treatment Orellana Dávila Bernardo, MD, Fresilli Mauro, MD, Oddi Fabio Massimo, MD, Diotallevi Nicolò, MD, Ascoli Marchetti Andrea and Ippoliti Arnaldo Article Type: Case Report | First Published: December 13, 2021 True atherosclerotic aneurysms of the common femoral artery (CFA) are rare and often associated with other peripheral or aortic aneurysms. Degenerative aneurysms of the lower extremity most commonly involve the popliteal artery, while they are rarely detected in the femoral region. In this region, aneurysms most frequently involve the common femoral artery (CFA), whereas true aneurysms of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) represent only 15% to 25% of femoral arterial aneurysms. We report a ca...

Open Access DOI:10.23937/2690-3164/1710011 Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Insulin Resistance: Topic of High Interest in Research Ivan Lozada Martinez, Daniela Torres Llinás, Jaine Anaya Rivera, Jennifer Jiménez Valverde and Milena Castro Berrio Article Type: Commentary | First Published: December 06, 2021 Insulin resistance is a condition derived from the disorder in the use of substrates for metabolic activities. It can be caused by chronic hyperinsulinemia, inflammation, and long-term use of corticosteroids. In vivo and in vitro models have revealed that this process is secondary to the excessive production of mitochondrial oxidants, a product of mitochondrial dysfunction, even in cases where mitochondrial respiration is conserved. Insulin increases the number of type 4 glucose transporters (GL...

Two cases of dextrocardia with situs inversus were accidentally found in adult Thai hearts received for researches from the Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, Chiang Mai University. They were found in 43- and 78-year-old Thai men. One case of dextrocardia with situs inversus was found in gross anatomy practice of Chiang Mai Unive...

Open Access DOI:10.23937/2690-3164/1710007 Oxidative Stress and Cardiovascular Risk: Research Must Persist Ivan Lozada Martinez, Daniela Torres Llinás, Jaine Anaya Rivera, Jennifer Jiménez Valverde and Milena Castro Berrio Article Type: Commentary | First Published: December 16, 2020 Advances in medicine and experimental biology have supported the definition of concepts related to the process of cellular stress, depending on new discoveries at the molecular level. Oxidative stress is the product of the activity of various metabolic pathways including the mitochondrial electron chain, Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Oxidase (NADPH), nitric oxide synthase, xanthine oxidase, among others. Physiologically, regular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a fundam...

Open Access DOI:10.23937/2690-3164/1710006 Elmouden R, Moya A, Reimann G, Adamczewski O, Schwarz M and Rohde S Article Type: Original Research | First Published: November 05, 2020 Endovascular treatment of acute stroke patients with tandem lesions is technically challenging. We sought to evaluate clinical and interventional factors that might influence the clinical outcome in these patients. We retrospectively analysed the interventional and clinical data of patients with tandem lesions and acute embolic stroke in the anterior circulation that underwent endovascular stroke treatment at our institution. Patients were selected if they had a CTA-proved vessel occlusion of th...

Open Access DOI:10.23937/2690-3164/1710005 Extensive Tissue Necrosis: A Rare but Catastrophic Complication of Sclerotherapy Paul Robert Weaver Article Type: Short Commentary | First Published: March 12, 2020 While sclerotherapy may seem safe, catastrophic complications have been reported, including local and systemic adverse reactions. For example, extensive tissue necrosis and cerebrovascular accident (stroke) Patient selection is vital and treating physicians should be aware of all potential complications and discuss them with their patients, prior to treatment, to obtain informed consent. Physicians also need to be prepared to manage catastrophic complications that could lead to amputation or dea...

In addition, the effects of different arterial sizes and genders on element accumulation were investigated in the FSBs. Sixty-two formalin-fixed adult Thai hearts were used and the FSBs were carefully dissected in the hearts. After the arteries were incinerated with nitric acid and perchloric acid, element contents were de...

The incidence of popliteal pseudoaneurysms after total knee arthroplasty varies from 0.03 to 0.5%. We present the case of a popliteal pseudoaneurysm as a complication after a TKA. A 76-year-old woman with a diagnosis of right knee osteoarthritis is undergoing TKA. During the postoperative period, the patient presented a pulsating and progressive growing mass in the poplitea...

Open Access DOI:10.23937/iavm-2017/1710002 Oxygen, the Link between Intracranial Aneurisms Disruption and the Atmospheric Environment? Thierry Patrice Article Type: LETTER TO EDITOR | First Published: May 22, 2019 The general purpose of research either clinical or basic is to describe links existing between an identified disease and its whole environment from the surrounding tissues and the patient, to his ecosystem. From this point of view berry aneurisms are extremely interesting: They develop from normal tissues, their cause is largely unknown, and their evolution is barely predictable but dramatic in case of disruption. Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) from a ruptured aneurysm accounts for around 5% of a...

Open Access DOI:10.23937/iavm-2017/1710001 Superficial Temporal Artery Pseudoaneurysm Following a Traumatic Haircut Matthew L Carnevale, John Phair, Eric B Trestman, Gregory Dickinson and Michael J Vitti Article Type: Case Report | First Published: Augsut 08, 2018 Superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysms are well known to occur following blunt trauma to the forehead, but their manifestation after penetrating trauma is considerably less often reported. A middle-aged male presented with a pulsatile mass on his forehead that had been growing slowly. He reports being accidentally cut by his barber in that location 2-3 months prior. This was determined to be a superficial temporal artery aneurysm by physical diagnosis. The aneurysm was surgically resected, ...
