Successful management of retropharyngeal hematoma by trans-arterial embolism without intubation

International Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2021
Background Retropharyngeal hematoma can cause suffocation if there is delay in securing the airway by intubation. However, there are also concerns about complications that can arise with intubation; it is still unknown which cases do not require ...

Massive hemoptysis treated with embolization of an ectopic bronchial artery arising from the right thyrocervical trunk: a case report

CVIR Endovascular, 2022
Background Ectopic bronchial artery and non-bronchial systemic arteries may be the culprit vessels of hemoptysis. The main cause of clinical failure of bronchial artery embolization is incomplete embolization caused by the misidentification of the ...

Role of noncontrast magnetic resonance pulmonary imaging in diagnosis of pulmonary embolism

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2022
Background Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious condition and has a clinical dilemma in diagnosis. Computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is a gold standard in its diagnosis, but MRI has proven a good role in PE diagnosis.

Non-invasive assessment of coronary artery bypass graft patency using 16-slice computed tomography angiography

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2007
Background Invasive coronary angiography is the gold standard means of imaging bypass vessels and carries a small but potentially serious risk of local vascular complications, including myocardial infarction, stroke and death.

External Validation of Atherosclerotic Neuroimaging Biomarkers in Emergent Large‐Vessel Occlusion

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2023
Background Intracranial atherosclerosis related large vessel occlusion (ICAS‐LVO) is the major cause of failed mechanical thrombectomy. ICAS‐LVO causes reocclusion or a fixed focal stenosis, leading to suboptimal revascularization and poor functional ...

Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2006
Recent developments in computed tomography technology have made imaging of the coronary arteries possible. All the same, the rapid motion and small dimensions of the coronary vessels make coronary computed tomography angiography (coronary CTA) challenging.

Acute Kidney Injury After Mechanical Thrombectomy for Stroke in Patients With Pre‐Existing Renal Impairment

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common but often underrecognized complication in ischemic stroke patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy, particularly among those with pre‐existing renal impairment. This study evaluated the incidence, risk factors, and clinical impact of AKI in this high‐risk population.
