Patch graft angioplasty techniques for extracranial occlusive vascular disease

Operative Techniques in Neurosurgery, 1998
Patch graft angioplasty is a useful technical alternative for arteriotomy closure. In our experience, patch graft angioplasty has been reserved for patients with recurrent stenosis, those with smaller than normal arteries, and those who have radiation arteriopathy after previous treatment for a malignancy. Patch graft angioplasty is also useful for the

Sciatic Palsy after Total Hip Arthroplasty Associated with Vascular Graft Occlusion

HIP International, 2011
Sciatic nerve palsy is a well-recognised complication of total hip arthroplasty, and causes include direct injury during surgery (crushing or electrocautery), compression or stretching of the nerve, thermal damage caused by leaked bone cement, trauma during dislocation or reduction of the hip, haematoma, traction caused by leg lengthening or ...

The Dental Management of Patients with Vascular Grafts Placed in the Treatment of Arterial Occlusive Disease

The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1982
Patients who have arterial occlusive disease often need vascular grafts. The purpose of these grafts and their implications for dental management are described.

Controlled Preoperative Occlusion of an Infected Vascular Graft: A Rational Approach to Treatment

Vascular Surgery, 1982
The presence of infection in a vascular prosthesis usually necessitates its removal. When the graft is still patent collaterals have no time to develop and limb perfusion following its removal cannot be predicted. We present a case in which an infected axillo-femoral graft was gradually occluded over a period of six days using a Silastic loop snare ...

Venous and Arterial Bypass Grafts for Difficult Tumors, Aneurysms, and Occlusive Vascular Lesions: Evolution of Surgical Treatment and Improved Graft Results

Neurosurgery, 1999
OBJECTIVE: In the treatment of patients with cranial base tumors, unclippable aneurysms, or medically intractable ischemia, it may be necessary to use high-flow bypass grafts. The indications, surgical techniques and complications are discussed. METHODS: During a 10-year period, 99 saphenous vein grafts and 3 radial artery grafts were performed for 101

Increased leukocyte-platelet adhesion in patients with graft occlusion after peripheral vascular surgery

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2003
SummaryGraft occlusion following peripheral vascular surgery is attributable to some combination of acute thrombosis, and progression of atherosclerosis: interactions between leukocytes and activated platelets may play a role in both of these processes.

Outcomes of Amplatzer Vascular Plugs for Occlusion of Internal Iliacs during Aortoiliac Aneurysm Stent Grafting

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2008
We report on the outcomes of the Amplatzer vascular plug (AVP) for occlusion of the internal iliac artery (IIA) during stent grafting of aortoiliac and isolated common iliac artery aneurysms. We retrospectively reviewed 10 patients treated concomitantly with a single AVP in the IIA and endografting of the degenerative aneurysmal segment. Imaging review

CD8+ T cells induce graft vascular occlusion in a CD40 knockout donor/recipient combination

The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 2003
It has recently been shown that treatment of animals with antibodies to CD154 (CD40L), allows for prolongation of cardiac allograft survival, but does not inhibit development of graft vasculopathy. CD8(+) T cells have been implicated in this effect. In this study we assess the role of CD40-CD154 interactions and CD40-independent CD8(+) T cells in the ...

Does External Stenting Reduce Porcine Vein‐Graft Occlusion Via an Action on Vascular Nerves?

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2002
Neural reorganization occurs in porcine vein grafts and placement of an external stent reduces graft occlusion.To determine the effect of external stenting on the innervation of porcine vein grafts.Saphenous vein into carotid artery grafting (with and without external stents) was performed in 16 pigs.

Amplatzer vascular plugs for occlusion of a left internal mammary artery graft anastomosed to the anterior interventricular vein

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2010
AbstractThe authors present a case of left internal mammary artery graft anastomosis to the anterior interventricular vein leading to congestive heart failure. The patient underwent successful left main stenting using an Impella left ventricular assist device and left internal mammary graft occlusion using two Amplatzer vascular plugs.
