Two-year follow-up of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds in severe infra-popliteal arterial disease.
CONCLUSIONS: At 24 months, our study found that patients with predominantly advanced infra-popliteal PAD who were treated with Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold reported improved clinical status and a low and durable rate of clinically driven target vessel failure extending out to 24 months.

Use of Vascular Shunts in Unstable Lower Extremity Trauma Patients
We present a case of a 25-year-old male with gunshot to both lower extremities who was unstable at the time of admission. Bilateral superficial femoral arter and femoral vein injuries were found on exploration. Since the patient was unstable due to massive bleeding, vascular continuity was restored using argyle shunts in all vessels. Shunts were secured using vessel loops. After control of bleeding, the patient was started on heparin. Patient was taken to the intensive care unit for resuscitation. The patient was brought back to the operating room 24 hours later, and bilateral superficial femoral arteries and femoral veins...

Transradial interventions in contemporary vascular surgery practice.
Conclusions Using the transradial approach, we have demonstrated a high technical success rate over a range of clinical contexts with minimal morbidity and no significant complications such as bleeding or hand ischemia. The safety profile compares favorably to historical complication rates from brachial access. Radial access is a safe and useful skill for vascular surgeons to master.

Shared quality data are associated with increased protamine use and reduced bleeding complications after carotid endarterectomy in the Vascular Study Group of New England
Objective: The goal of this study was to evaluate whether protamine usage after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) increased within the Vascular Study Group of New England (VSGNE) in response to studies indicating that protamine reduces bleeding complications associated with CEA without increasing the risk of stroke.Methods: We reviewed 10,059 CEAs, excluding concomitant coronary bypass, performed within the VSGNE from January 2003 to July 2012. Protamine use and reoperation for bleeding were evaluated monthly using statistical process control. Twelve centers and 77 surgeons entering the VSGNE between 2003 and 2008 were classifi...

Long-term Outcome After EndoVAC Hybrid Repair of Infected Vascular Reconstructions
Vascular graft infection is a serious and challenging complication. In situations when neither traditional radical surgery nor conservative negative pressure wound therapy (VAC) alone, are considered feasible or safe, for example due to bleeding, adverse anatomy, or severe comorbidity, a novel hybrid procedure was developed. The EndoVAC technique consists of (i) relining of the infected reconstruction with a stent graft; (ii) surgical revision (without clamping the reconstruction); and (iii) VAC therapy, to permit granulation and secondary delayed healing, and long-term antibiotic treatment.

Drain Placement Confers No Benefit Following Carotid Endarterectomy in the Vascular Quality Initiative
Whereas bleeding complications requiring a return to the operating room (OR) after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) are infrequent (1%), they are associated with increased 30-day combined postoperative stroke/death rate. Drain placement (DR) after CEA varies among vascular surgeons, and there are limited data to support the practice. The goal of this study was to evaluate factors leading to DR and the effect of DR on postoperative outcomes including return to OR for bleeding, stroke, and death.

Life-saving vascular access in vascular capital exhaustion: single center experience in intra-atrial catheters for hemodialysis.
CONCLUSION: Placing an IAC to perform HD is associated to significant risks and high mortality. However, when alternative RRT are exhausted, or as a bridge to others modalities, this option should be considered. PMID: 28355409 [PubMed - in process]

Deep venous thrombosis prevention in bariatric surgery: comparative study of different doses of low weight molecular heparin
Conclusions There were no statistical differences when higher doses of LWMH were used for prevention of DVT in bariatric surgery patients, in terms of DVT risk, anti-Xa factor levels, or preoperative and postoperative bleeding.

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...

Topical vs. intravenous administration of tranexamic acid in knee arthroplasty and prevalence of deep venous thrombosis: a randomized clinical trial
Conclusions Both topical and intravenous administration of TXA are safe with regard to occurrence of DVT, since the number of DVT cases in patients given TXA was not different to the number in those given placebo.Resumo Contexto O ácido tranexâmico é amplamente utilizado em cirurgia ortopédica para reduzir a hemorragia perioperatória. Como o ácido tranexâmico inibe a fibrinólise, há uma preocupação de que ele possa aumentar o risco de eventos tromboembólicos. Objetivos Verificar se o uso do ácido tranexâmico é seguro em relação à prevalência de trombose venosa profunda em pacientes submetidos a artroplas...
