Lymphatics in Lung Disease [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2008 The lymphatic circulation appears to be a vital component in lung biology in health and in disease. Animal models have established the role of the lymphatic circulation in neoplastic and inflammatory diseases of the lung, such as asthma and cancer, and allowed for the understanding of the molecular controls of lymphangiogenesis in normal lung ...

The Lymphatic System in Kidney Disease
Kidney360, 2023 The high-capacity vessels of the lymphatic system drain extravasated fluid and macromolecules from nearly every part of the body. However, far from merely a passive conduit for fluid removal, the lymphatic system also plays a critical and active role in immune surveillance and immune response modulation through the presentation of fluid, macromolecules,

Percutaneous laser recanalization in chronically occluded iliofemoral venous stents
Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2022 Occlusion is a challenging complication of endovenous stenting. The treatment of chronic iliofemoral stent occlusion involves wire recanalization followed by balloon angioplasty. However, this approach will not always be successful.

Stenting for obstructive iliac vein lesions
Veins and Lymphatics, 2017 Endovenous stenting has supplanted open surgery as the treatment of choice for iliocaval obstruction. This review provides a brief overview of such obstructive pathology and an in-depth assessment of femoroilio- caval stenting.
