An anomalous origin and inter-arterial course of the right coronary artery is a rare anomaly that can lead to sudden ischemic cardiac death if left untreated. We present a case of a patient with an an...
A 69 year-old-male with a ten-year history of intermittent chest pain and dyspnea with a negative workup underwent a cardiac catheterization, which showed an anomalous right coronary artery (RCA) orig...
Symptomatic anomalous origin of the right coronary artery with an inter-arterial course can be treated successfully with coronary artery bypass surgery with the internal mammary artery as a conduit. L...
There are no published standards for the expected findings on noninvasive testing following distal revascularization and interval ligation (DRIL). This study evaluated the hemodynamic results and dupl...
A retrospective chart review of patients who underwent DRIL using autogenous vein between 2008 and 2019 was performed. Patients with both preoperative and follow-up noninvasive testing were included....
Thirty-eight patients were included in the study. Median time to first follow-up was 30 days (range 1-226 days), where 12 had complete resolution of their symptoms and 26 had partial resolution. Of th...
In this study, velocities at the proximal anastomosis were significantly higher than velocities more distal in the DRIL bypass without evidence of stenosis. This may be due to hemodynamic changes in t...
The main objective of this study was to assess the impact on quality of life after rubber band ligation (RBL) in patients with symptomatic grade II-III haemorrhoids who did not improve after 6 months ...
This was a prospective cohort observational study where patients with haemorrhoidal disease and indication for RBL were included between December 2019 and December 2020. RBL was offered as first-line ...
A total of 100 patients were finally included. Regarding the impact on quality of life after RBL, a significant reduction was found in the HDSS and SHS scores (p < 0.001). The main improvement was fou...
Rubber band ligation, as a treatment for symptomatic grade II-III haemorrhoids that do not respond to medical treatment, leads to a significant improvement in patients' symptoms and quality of life. I...
BACKGROUND The Over-the-Scope-Clip (OTSC) System is a class of endoscopic clips intended to provide improved strength and tissue capture compared to conventional through-the-scope clips. These clips a...
Tentorial dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) are categorized based on venous drainage and location. Although their angioarchitecture may initially appear intimidating, once "decodified," treatment i...
With the aid of anatomical dissections, intraoperative photos, and operative videos, we outline the key steps for surgical treatment of posteromedial tentorial dAVFs....
Posteromedial tentorial dAVFs constitute a precise and well-defined subtype of tentorial dAVF for which surgical ligation has an important role....
Retrograde cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare complication following internal jugular vein (IJV) ligation. The patient described in this report is a male in his 30s with locally advanced carci...
Laser hemorrhoidoplasty has demonstrated significant therapeutic effectiveness. To diminish postoperative bleeding and enhance overall outcomes, we have additionally adopted suture ligating the feedin...
This study comprised patients with symptomatic grade II-III hemorrhoids who underwent laser hemorrhoidoplasty with feeding vessel suture ligation and Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy between 1 Septemb...
The study included 323 patients, with 173 undergoing laser hemorrhoidoplasty (LHP) and 150 undergoing Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy. Regarding pain assessment, the LHP group exhibited superior perf...
Laser hemorrhoidoplasty with feeding vessels suture ligation has been shown to reduce postoperative pain and appears to be a promising minimally invasive treatment option for symptomatic grade II and ...
Life-threatening bleeding following endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) in patients with cirrhosis rarely can occur. The present study aimed to evaluate the performance of computed tomography (CT) in p...
We retrospectively investigated 285 cirrhotic patients who had undergone EVL. EVL was performed for prophylaxis or acute variceal bleeding. The patients were classified into 2 groups: early bleeding (...
Among the 285 patients who underwent EVL treatment, 19 patients (6.7%) experienced early bleeding. On average, these bleeding occurred 9.3 ± 3.5 days after the EVL, with a range of 3 to 13 days. Patie...
A larger esophageal varix diameter observed on CT is associated with an increased risk of early bleeding after EVL treatment. Early identification of this high-risk group can provide a change of treat...
Endoscopic rubber band ligation (ERBL) is considered an effective nonsurgical treatment for symptomatic grade I to III hemorrhoids; however, it is unclear whether ligation of hemorrhoids or simultaneo...
Seventy patients with symptomatic grade I to III hemorrhoids were randomly assigned to the hemorrhoid and combined ligation groups (35 in each group). Patients were followed up at 3, 6, and 12 months ...
Sixty-two patients (31 in each group) completed the 12-month follow-up; 42 (67.8%) experienced complete resolution, 17 (27.4%) experienced partial resolution, and 3 (4.8%) experienced no change in ove...
Both methods achieved satisfactory therapeutic effects. No significant differences in efficacy and safety of the two ligation methods were observed; however, combined ligation resulted in a higher inc...
Milrinone is administered after patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) ligation to prevent and treat postoperative hemodynamic instability (i.e., postligation cardiac syndrome). We aimed to explore the effect...
Using the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination database, we identified patients who received milrinone after PDA ligation (n = 428) in neonatal intensive care units between July 2010 and March 202...
In-hospital morbidity, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, intraventricular hemorrhage, and necrotizing enterocolitis occurred in 58%, 48%, 9.5%, and 7.1% of patients, respectively; the in-hospital mortality ...
Milrinone use after PDA ligation was not associated with improved in-hospital outcomes, such as mortality and morbidity....
