PURPOSE Limb remote ischemic per-conditioning or post-conditioning has been shown to be neuroprotective after cerebral ischemic stroke. However, the effect of combining remote per-conditioning with post-conditioning on ischemic/reperfusion injury as well as the underlying mechanisms are largely unexplored. METHODS Here, adult male Sprague Dawley rats were subjected to middle cerebral artery o...

BACKGROUND Radial artery is now the most frequent access for coronary angiography and intervention. Despite the common opinion that it is safer than femoral access, it has the potential for serious complications. One of them is upper limb ischemia caused by radial artery thrombosis. CASE REPORT We are presenting a case of critical hand ischemia after coronary angiography performed through rad...

A case of a progressive ischemia of the right upper extremity in a 57-year-old male caused by primarily undiagnosed compression of a subclavian artery by an accessory cervical rib is presented. Critical limb ischemia persisting for 7 years despite conservative treatment and a thrombectomy of upper extremity arteries and thoracic sympathectomy, led to a loss of three fingers and development of a...

Background . Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most severe stages disease vessels blood chronic , oriented CLI management on effort to anticipate doing amputation by pushing a infection happens wound and healing easier. One wrong possible intervention done increase peripheral circulation prevent occurance of consequence maintenance. Purpose Describe feet application nail care _ enhancement fi...

OBJECTIVE Operation on the infrarenal aorta could cause ischemic-reperfusion (IR) injury in local tissues and remote organs (e.g. the lung). We aim to explore the method of reducing lung ischemia-reperfusion damage after lower limb IR with post conditioning (LIPC). METHODS Bilateral lower limb ischemia was performed in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, and then animals were divided into 4 groups: IR-...

Embolectomy has long been the gold standard for treating limbs acutely threatened by arterial occlusion. Delayed embolectomy has not been investigated adequately due to the belief that accompanying mortality and morbidity render the case futile. Following our previous experience with late arterial repair for leg or knee salvage I we applied the same principle to limbs threatened with prolo...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES With recent advances in equipment and techniques, infrapopliteal angioplasty has shown results that are comparable to those of surgical bypass in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI). In this study, we evaluated the efficacy and the feasibility of infrapopliteal angioplasty in patients with CLI. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Between March 2002 and May 2008, infrapoplite...

Chronic limb ischemia is a progressive and life threatening disease which in turn effects on quality of life. Up to date several studies have been conducted timely identify manage the disease. Timely identification, diagnosis treatment this pathological condition will play crucial role reduce burden healthcare associated with disorder. In article latest data are shown chronic ischemia, its path...
