dissection of the internal carotid artery (ica) is a rare condition that accounts for a significant proportion of ischemic strokes in young adults. iatrogenic dissection as a complication of neurointerventional procedures is a traumatic dissection which has been reported relatively rare in the literature. in this report, a case of dissection of the ica is reported that was caused by repetitive ...

BACKGROUND A crucial aspect of living-donor liver transplant is the risk imposed to the donor due to a procedure performed in a healthy individual that can lead to a high postoperative morbidity rate AIM To correlate the pre- and intraoperative hepatic imaging findings of living adult donors. METHODS From 2003 to 2008 the medical charts of 66 donors were revised; in that, 42 were males (64%...

introduction: in patients with coronary artery disease (cad) noninvasive evaluation for detection of ischemia is important to avoid invasive interventions like angiography. exercise stress test is conventionally the first study used in evaluation of cad. considering the noninvasive nature of the myocardial perfusion scan, we decided to compare its accuracy with stress test. methods: patients wi...

Background & Aims: The clinical value of T wave inversion (TWI) in the lead aVL in diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD) remains unclear. Hence, we aim to evaluate the association between TWI in the aVL lead and the severity and location of coronary artery stenosis in elective coronary angiography. Material and Method: Electrocardiograms (ECGs) of 167 consecutive patients undergoing electiv...

coronary artery anomalies are rare, with their incidence varying from 1 to 5%. angiography is a commonly used modality for the assessment of coronary artery anomalies. based on previous reports, a majority of coronary artery anomalies are of origin or distribution, with separate ostia of the left anterior descending artery and left circumflex artery. coronary artery anomalies may cause myocardi...

conclusions: the current study presents the highest accuracy value to diagnose the lad stenosis in the literature. results: bagging and c4.5 classification algorithms were drawn upon to analyse the data, the former reaching accuracy rates of 79.54%, 61.46%, and 68.96% for the diagnosis of the stenoses of the left anterior descending (lad), left circumflex (lcx), and right coronary artery (rca),...

OBJECTIVES We sought to compare bubble contrast echocardiography and pulmonary angiography in detecting pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) in children with cavopulmonary anastomosis (CPA), and to examine anatomic and physiologic variables associated with the development of PAVM. BACKGROUND Development of PAVM in patients with CPA may cause profound cyanosis. Pulmonary arteriovenous m...

A single coronary artery (SCA) is a relatively rare anomaly. Absent right (RCA) the rarest of anomalies occurring when doesn’t develop. In past 14 years till 2020, only 26 cases congenital absence RCA have been reported in 24 articles. We report case left with detected by angiography and confirmed CT angiography. The territory was being supplied branch from circumflex (LCX) artery. patient pres...

First transcatheter embolization of hepatic artery has been materializing in 1974, in France, for unresectable hepatic tumours. Then, this treatment has become use enough in many countries, especially in Japan, where primary hepatic tumours are very frequent. In this article, we present procedures of interventional endovascular treatment for primary hepatic tumours: chemoembolization, intra-art...
