INTRODUCTION Ruptured common iliac aneurysms present with diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This case describes the successful outcome in a patient with complex vascular surgical history. CASE PRESENTATION An elderly patient presented with abdominal pain confirmed by CT as leaking iliac aneurysm. He had previously undergone an aorto-bifemoral bypass graft for ruptured abdominal aortic an...

widely used for patients with multivessel coronary artery disease. The post-operative patency of the bypass graft is important to predict the clinical outcome (1-3). Postoperative myocardial infarction is a rare, but potentially severe complication after CABG. So, the early recognition of the failure of a bypass graft on the early postoperative imaging is necessary to evaluate the quality of th...

Atherosclerosis in the form of peripheral arterial disease results in significant morbidity. Surgical treatment options for peripheral arterial disease include angioplasty, endarterectomy, and bypass grafting. For bypass grafting, vein remains the conduit of choice; however, poor quality and limited availability have led to the use of prosthetic materials. Unfortunately, because of a lack of en...

Objective: Due to the potential of thrombus blockage and aneurysm rupture, saphenous veins with varicose are not advised for use as bypass grafts. However, if no other autologous vein is accessible a conduit in lower-limb bypass; transplants may be employed. Few reports have studied clinical results using We therefore investigated whether or acceptable patency rates graft could achieved.

Spasm following coronary artery bypass graft surgery has been well established in arterial grafts, especially in grafts utilizing the internal mammary. Venous graft spasms are uncommon and are only observed in vein grafts during or soon after the coronary artery bypass surgery. It is exceedingly rare to see spasm of venous graft beyond one year of surgery. We report a 72-year-old female who had...

abstract background: different modes of mechanical ventilation are used for respiratory support after coronary artery bypass graft (cabg). this study aimed to compare the effect(s) of using adaptive support ventilation (asv) and synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (simv) on the length of mechanical ventilation (intubation duration) and hospital stay after coronary artery bypass graf...

reliable, exclusively in appropriately selected situations. In creation of bypass grafts, durable completeness of revascularization and function of the ITA to the LAD bypass should not be compromised. We would suggest that the balanced bypass flow toward the LAD and the RCA is noticeably important to achieve an entire patency of the Y-graft for three-vessel regions. This study is not conclusive...
