Motor evoked potential-guided segmental artery revascularization during open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm surgery after coil embolization as a part of the minimally invasive staged segmental artery coil embolization concept

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2022
Sacrifice of the segmental arteries during thoracoabdominal aortic repair carries the risk of spinal cord injury. Staged embolization of segmental arteries has been discussed as an option for preconditioning the spinal cord vascular network.

On the Combinatorics of Locally Repairable Codes via Matroid Theory

, 2016
This paper provides a link between matroid theory and locally repairable codes (LRCs) that are either linear or more generally almost affine. Using this link, new results on both LRCs and matroid theory are derived.
