The study was performed on 103 human foetuses (58 female, 45 male) spontaneously aborted at between 14 and 30 weeks of gestation. The arteries were filled with latex, preserved in formalin and then dissected under the microscope and digitalised using a camera system. The following measurements were taken with the use of special computer software: the external diameter, the length and the volume...

Introduction. Horseshoe kidney (HSK) is a congenital anomaly of embryonic kidneys, which occurs in early gestation when both kidneys are close proximity. This hap-pens as result abnormal migration nephrogenic cells. The presence HSK may complicate an anterior approach to reconstructive surgery the aorta and iliac vessels because isthmus lies across aorta. often associated with anomalous renal v...

Coeliac trunk and Superior Mesenteric arteries are very much susceptible to variations were described by Tandler in 1904. Abdominal aorta branches classified as single double or visceral parietal. Double middle suprarenal, renal testicular coeliac trunk, superior mesenteric inferior arteries. Materials Methods: After obtaining ethical committee approval, we observed the origin, course branching...

A 67-year-old female patient was treated with conventional total arch replacement and insertion of a stented elephant trunk (SET) graft into the descending thoracic aorta for acute DeBakey type I aortic dissection at one time. She had been treated with right coronary artery stent insertion for acute myocardial infarct 4 days earlier, and at that time, she was diagnosed with acute DeBakey type I...

A one-day-old neonate who was diagnosed with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), aortic atresia, with a diminutive ascending aorta, and mitral atresia, was referred to us for cardiogenic shock because of excessive pulmonary blood flow. The patient underwent bilateral pulmonary artery banding (bPAB). After bPAB, the patient's hemodynamics were still unstable because of coronary malperfusion,...

The macroscopic features of the arterial supply to the reproductive system of the male ostrich was studied in 16 pre-pubertal and eight sexually mature and active birds. The left and right cranial renal arteries arise from the aorta, between the cranial divisions of the kidneys. These vessels supply the cranial divisions of the kidneys, the testes, the epididymides and the cranial segments of t...

Objectives: In living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT), microsurgical reconstruction of a hepatic artery is essential but requires challenging techniques, because graft arteries are short and usable vessel grafts are limited. Furthermore, hepatic artery thrombosis can be a lethal complication. Extra-anatomical jump graft reconstruction using free grafts is reported to have a high reocclusion ...

A 47 year-old man with aortic coarctation had undergone extra-anatomic bypass through a left thoracotomy. He presented 10 years later with uncontrolled arterial hypertension due to residual aortic coarctation, graft obstruction and multiple collateral artery aneurysms between the subclavian artery and the aorta. He underwent extra-anatomic correction between the ascending aorta to descending ao...

Abstract We report a case of 4-year-old boy who presented with moyamoya disease associated midaortic syndrome. He had been treated for severe persistent hypertension until he suffered multiple episodes seizure and cerebral ischemic attack. Cerebral angiography showed bilateral terminal internal carotid artery stenosis. Angiographic survey stenosis abdominal aorta proximal renal arteries. This i...

Background: Patent ductus arteriosus is a vascular structure that connects the proximal descending aorta to roof of main pulmonary artery near origin left branch results in congestive heart failure, hypertension, recurrent pneumonia and severe malnutrition. Transcatheter closure PDA usually performed for body weight above 6 kilograms, this our first case hospital close child with less than kilo...
