Conventional capillaroscopy and infrared fluorescence videomicroscopy with indocyanine green were performed at the nailfold in 12 healthy controls and 38 patients with microangiopathy due to systemic sclerosis or related disorders. Saccular aneurysms featuring head and neck (type 1) and aneurysmatic enlargements (type 2) were defined. Microaneurysms were located at the apex or near the apex of ...

The detection of retinal microaneurysms is crucial for the early important diseases such as diabetic retinopathy. However, these lesions in retinography, most widely available imaging modality, remains a very challenging task. This mainly due to tiny size and low contrast images. Consequently, automated usually relies on extensive ad-hoc processing. In this regard, although can be more easily d...

The arterio-venous fistula was successfully treated Renal aneurysms are common in polyarteritis nodosa, by embolization. The patient received antibiotics for either idiopathic or associated with HBV or HCV 10 weeks (teicoplanin, ofloxacin and meticillin). Due infection [1]...
