Is the Middle Meningeal Artery the Optimal Path for Dural Arteriovenous Fistula Embolization?
Background: The middle meningeal artery (MMA) is the optimal arterial path for endovascular treatment (EVT) of dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs). However, the details are not completely understood.Materials and Methods: We performed a retrospective ...

Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization for Chronic Subdural Hematoma Related to Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease [PDF]
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a connective tissue disease with vascular abnormalities involving multiple organs. The prevalence of ADPKD associated with a spontaneous subdural hematoma (SDH) is very low, with less than 10 cases ...

Coronary Perforation During Excimer Laser Angioplasty in a Patient With Prior Thoracic Radiotherapy
ABSTRACT Background Management of heavily calcified coronary lesions remains challenging despite advances in plaque‐modifying technologies. Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) is an effective adjunctive strategy with a low risk of no‐reflow. Case Summary A 75‐year‐old woman with non–ST‐segment elevation acute coronary syndrome and severe left ...

ABSTRACT Chronic dizziness in elderly patients, particularly when reproducibly triggered by upper limb exertion, should prompt evaluation for arm‐exertion‐provoked vertebrobasilar hypoperfusion due to subclavian steal syndrome. Duplex ultrasonography can identify complete retrograde vertebral artery flow and confirm complete Grade III subclavian steal ...

Advancing the pneumatic method to assess xylem vulnerability to embolism among distinct growth forms
Our study shows that pneumatic vulnerability curves can be constructed across contrasting growth forms, with P50 showing the closest agreement across methods. Repeated relative water content measurements improved water potential estimation for graminoid culms. Abstract Drought‐driven plant mortality is closely linked to xylem embolism. Building useful,
