Resection and a rare type of reconstruction of the superior vena cava with the left brachiocephalic vein [PDF]

Folia Medica
Resection and reconstruction of the superior vena cava (SVC) are required in a selected group of patients with anterior mediastinal tumors and lung neoplasms. We present the case of a 63-year-old woman who underwent invasive type B2 thymoma resection and

Utilisation of the snare technique for left ventricular lead placement in a patient with persistent left superior vena cava

Revista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2018
Persistence of the left superior vena cava occurs in about 0.3-0.7% of the general population. It is of particular importance in patients who need cardiac resynchronisation therapy.

Ablation of Atrial Tachycardia in a Budd-Chiari Syndrome Patient via Inferior Vena Cava-Azygos-Superior Vena Cava Approach. [PDF]

Ann Noninvasive Electrocardiol
ABSTRACT Introduction Catheter ablation for atrial tachycardia (AT) in Budd‐Chiari syndrome (BCS) presents unique challenges due to altered venous anatomy. This case demonstrates an innovative approach to overcome complete inferior vena cava (IVC) occlusion.

Napabucasin transforms liver microenvironment and boosts immunotherapy efficacy by converting potential metastases into “hot” tumors

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Napabucasin reduces liver metastases by reprogramming the hepatic microenvironment. It induces hepatocyte secretion of CCL21 via c‐Fos activation, recruiting lymphocytes and converting “cold” metastases into immunologically “hot” tumors. This effect is liver‐specific and independent of cancer cells.

A Comparative Study of Ultrasonography and CT Venography in the Diagnosis of Budd‐Chiari Syndrome

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Budd‐Chiari syndrome (BCS) is characterized by hepatic venous outflow obstruction from the hepatic veins to the junction of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and right atrium. Ultrasound (US) and CT venography (CTV) are used as imaging techniques for the diagnosis of BCS, and We compared the diagnostic efficacy of the two modalities. The results showed that

Defining minimum image quality criteria for common diagnostic point‐of‐care ultrasound images: A position statement of the Society of Hospital Medicine

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS) use continues to expand across multiple clinical subspecialties, and the need for standardization of training and quality assurance has become increasingly important. Despite the need for training, there are currently no widely accepted multispecialty criteria to define an acceptable quality POCUS ...

Case Report of a Left-sided Superior Vena Cava Causing Unique Positioning of Central Line

Clinical Practice and Cases in Emergency Medicine, 2020
Introduction: Persistent left-sided superior vena cava is a rare congenital venous malformation. While often clinically asymptomatic, these variations in normal anatomy may give rise to complications with central venous catheter placement.
