Aneurysm of extracranial carotid artery is an uncommon clinical disease and that presenting as a ruptured aneurysm is extremely rare. This entity represents a challenge to treatment strategy. A 54 year old hypertensive male presented with painful, pulsatile mass in left neck. Duplex scan revealed the ruptured left carotid artery at its bifurcation. Angiogram depicted clear picture of ruptured c...

Duplex scanning has been proposed as a safe alternative to contrast venography for diagnosing deep venous thrombosis, but its accuracy has not been proved. In this prospective, double-blind study of 47 patients, the sensitivity and specificity of duplex scan criteria were determined relative to contrast venography for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis. Criteria considered to show the prese...

Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a normal left kidney and grade III hydronephrosis of both segments of the right duplex kidney with a bifid ureter joining further distal to the kidney. Retrograde pyelography showed obstruction of the right ureter at the level of crossing with the right common iliac artery (RCIA) with the stent in situ. Computed tomography scan demonstrated a totally thrombos...

the unique properties of air-cooled bainitic steels have been described. a series of mn containing air-cooled bainitic steels invented by authors is presented in this paper: including low carbon granular bainitic steels, low carbon grain-boundary allotriomorphic ferrite/granular bainite duplex steels, medium and medium high carbon bainite/martensite duplex steel, and low carbon carbide free bai...

Introduction: In paediatric practice, the underlying anatomical abnormalities of urinary tract need to be considered in recurrent urinary tract infection. Case Report: A 5 year old girl presented with recurrent urinary tract infection. Ultrasonography revealed rounded anechoic lesion at the vesicle base continuous with dilated tubular structure inferolaterally to the left side of bladder sugges...

Surgical repair of popliteal artery aneurysm in morbid obese patients poses additional challenges. We report a morbid obese patient who had a 59 mm right popliteal artery aneurysm which was successfully treated with the endograft connector technique. This technique was used to perform the distal anastomosis of the below-knee femoro-popliteal bypass. A 10 mm Dacron graft was used as a main graft...

Compression ultrasonography of the leg is established for triaging proximal lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) when performed by a certified operator. It can be associated with long waiting times and high resource utilization. AutoDVT, machine-learning software, provides tool nonspecialists in acquiring appropriate two- or three-point compression sequences. These reviewed an expert to...

Recanalization after extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion is a rare phenomenon and the natural history of the disease is largely unknown. There have been few cases reported in the published data, including early recanalization after a cerebrovascular accident (CVA). We report a case of a 74-year-old man who presented with a CVA and a history of multiple CVAs in the past, the las...
