The role of vascular echography in the management of complications associated with central venous access for hemodialysis in cancer patients: two case reports and literature review
Resumo O implante de cateter venoso central para hemodi álise é comumente realizado em grandes centros e suas complicações estão, por vezes, associadas ao treinamento insuficiente de quem o realiza, mas também às condições clínicas do próprio doente. O presente estudo relata dois casos de intercorrências relacionadas ao uso do cateter de curt a permanência para hemodiálise. No primeiro caso, houve inserção inadvertida da cânula na artéria subclávia esquerda e consequente trombose arterial, que foi conduzida conservadoramente, documentando-se uma boa perfusão colateral com ecografia vascular. O segundo c...

Lymphatic compensation during the postoperative period after breast cancer treatment with axillary dissection
The objective of this literature review was to study lymphatic compensation after surgery for breast cancer and the factors that influence this process, with a view to understanding the etiopathogenesis of lymphedema. Articles indexed on Pubmed published from 1985 to 2012 were reviewed. According to the literature, lymphangiogenesis reduces damage to lymph vessels; there is little evidence that Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor is elevated in women with lymphedema; lymphovenous communications can be observed 60 days after surgery; women without lymphedema have acquired alternative mechanisms for removal of proteins from t...

Correlation of clinical features with the risk of lower limb deep vein thrombosis assessed by duplex ultrasound
CONCLUSIONS: In the present study, 36.4% of the patients referred to DS had DVT. Age > 65 years, presence of limb swelling, pain, cancer, and suspected or proven PE should be considered as major risk factors for DVT. CONTEXTO: Sintomas e sinais clínicos indicativos de trombose venosa profunda (TVP) são comuns mas podem ter inúmeras causas. OBJETIVOS: 1) Identificar os sintomas mais frequentes e correlacioná-los com achados de dúplex scan (DS); 2) identificar condições clínicas de alto risco para TVP; e 3) avaliar o intervalo de tempo decorrido entre o início dos sintoma...

Selective vesical artery embolization for treatment of gross hematuria due to actinic cystitis
This article describes the case of a 46-year-old female patient who had been treated with radiotherapy for cervical cancer. She developed actinic cystitis with frequent episodes of severe hematuria. She required repeated catheterization to manage urinary retention, blood transfusions and hospital admissions. Conservative measures and attempts to achieve hemostasis by cystoscopy were unsuccessful at controlling bleeding. The patient therefore underwent endovascular treatment with superselective embolization of the vesical arteries and other vascular pedicles found to be linked with the bleeding. The procedure was successful...

Effects Of Exercise On Vascular Toxicity Associated With Breast Cancer Treatment: A Narrative Review
Curr Vasc Pharmacol. 2022 Dec 28. doi: 10.2174/1570161121666221228141150. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBreast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide, and its incidence is linearly associated with age. The development of cancer treatments has changed the prognosis of this disease. Despite effective treatments, cardiovascular complications in middle-aged and older women have become challenging. Physical exercise is a powerful tool to prevent senescence symptoms and diseases, besides being an essential component for cardiovascular diseases and cancer prevention and treatment. The present narrative review cons...
