Intravascular Fibrolipoma of the Femoral Vein

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2017
Lipoma of the lower leg vein is rare, and the histopathological variant, fibrolipoma, is even rarer. Here, we report an intravascular fibrolipoma located at the junction of the deep femoral vein and the femoral vein in a 50-year-old male patient. Tumor resection and venous reconstruction with a prosthetic graft were performed.

Femoral Vein Leiomyosarcoma Mimicking Thrombosis

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2021
Leiomyosarcoma represents a diagnostic challenge since it is often misdiagnosed as deep venous thrombosis (DVT).A 49-year-old woman with history of DVT and diagnosed with recurrency of thrombosis came to our observation for right thigh pain persistency.Duplex-Ultrasound (US) examination showed an oval mass inside the superficial femoral vein with color

The perils of femoral vein catheterization

British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2009
A 69-year-old patient was admitted to the intensive care unit for haemofiltration following an overdose of lithium carbonate. A venous haemofiltration catheter was passed 4 cm below the inguinal ligament, 1 cm medial to the femoral artery pulsation, into the femoral vein.

Great Mediastinal Vein Reconstruction Using Autologous Superficial Femoral Vein Superficial Femoral Vein Graft

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2008
Great mediastinal veins may be reconstructed using autologous, synthetic, or allograft conduits. Autologous conduits have been found superior to other conduit options. The superficial femoral vein (SFV) offers excellent early patency, minimal lower limb morbidity, and ease of harvest without accessory suture lines.

Leiomyosarcoma of Iliac and Femoral Veins

Archives of Surgery, 1965
ONLY 26 CASES of primary malignant tumors of veins have thus far been reported. Twenty-one of these were leiomyosarcomas, only seven of which originated outside the inferior vena cava: one in the left colic vein, 3,6 three in the femoral vein, 4,5,7 two in the internal jugular vein, 1,7 and one in the long saphenous vein.

Comparison of Subdavian Vein With Femoral Vein Catheterization for Hemodialysis

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1983
Subclavian vein catheterization (SVC) is not widely accepted for vascular access because it is considered more invasive than femoral vein catheterization (FVC). The use of FVC and SVC for acute vascular access was compared for 9 mo each. Complications were minimal with both, but access related hospitalizations were lower and the number of out-patient ...

Femoral vein cannulation: A review

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1985
The femoral vein is an excellent potential venous access site. The technique of cannulation is described and its applications and complications are reviewed. More extensive future use of this technique is necessary to determine its proper role in emergency medicine.

In situ Femoral to Popliteal Bypass Graft Using Superficial Femoral Vein to Popliteal Vein

The American Surgeon, 2004
During the evolution of vascular surgery as a specialty, many conduits have been used to revascularize the lower extremities. Superficial veins and prosthetic materials make up the majority of materials used to bypass diseased segments of native artery. The deep veins of the thigh have also been reported as alternatives for arterial bypass.

Mechanosensitive afferents of femoral-saphenous vein

American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1987
Urotensin II (U II) caused marked concentration-dependent contractions of helical strips from several major arteries of the rat. The thoracic aorta was most sensitive; the apparent concentration of U II producing half-maximal contraction was 6.8 X 10(-10) M.

Catheterization of the Femoral Vein for Chronic Hemodialysis

Angiology, 1987
Over the last ten years (1976-1986), 3,041 hemodialyses have been performed with 6,082 femoral vein catheterization in 336 patients with chronic renal failure. In the 3,041 hemodialyses, severe hematoma (0.29%), superficial hematoma (5.55%), and retroperitoneal hematoma (0.06%) have been observed.
