Giant venous aneurysm associated with hypogastric arteriovenous malformation
Mon, 03 Dec 2007 18:07:41 -0000
Abstract  Venous aneurysms are extremely rare. They may be congenital or acquired in origin and occasionally related to arteriovenous communications. A 58-year-old man complained of dull left lower quadrant pain and constipation. On physical examination a soft deep mass was palpated. Ultrasonogram and CT scan revealed a cystic formation in the pelvic cavity. Angiograms disclosed an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) at the pelvic floor draining into a large cavity. The patient was successfully managed by intraoperative selective embolization of the AVM and partial resection of a 10.6×8×6.7 cm venous aneurysm. The histopathologic studies of the wall confirmed a venous structure. Venous dilatation has been reported in high flow vein grafts, blood access V fistulas and rarely, proximal to traumatic AV fistulas of the lower extremities. The etiology of the present case is probably congenital, being to the best of our knowledge, the first case affecting the hypogastric territory, reported in the English literature.

Intraoperative autotransfusion with a new disposable system
Mon, 03 Dec 2007 18:07:41 -0000
Abstract  In the past 2 years we have used a simple, disposable set for Intraoperative autotransfusion. The system consists of a rigid plastic case with a flexible bag inside constituting a 600 ml reservoir which can be connected to any suitable vacuum source. We used it so far in 56 patients undergoing various vascular operations who were autotransfused a total of about 160 units of blood without any complications with regard to blood coagulation or hemolysis.

Intracaval and intracardiac leiomyomatosis of uterine origin
Mon, 03 Dec 2007 18:07:41 -0000
Abstract  Intracaval leiomyomatosis of uterine origin is a rare disease. Extension to the right heart is exceptional. Based on the review of 11 cases reported in the literature and the case presented herein, which was treated successfully, the diagnostic and therapeutic problems are discussed. Diagnosis should be suggested when a female patient operated on previously for myofibroma of the uterus by hysterectomy, presents with a picture of cardiac myxoma. Diagnosis can be confirmed by iliocavogram and computerized tomography of the abdomen. Excision calls for a cardiac procedure under extracorporeal circulation and caval exploration which may be performed either simultaneously or as a two stage procedure.

Popliteal aneurysm: a celebration of the bicentennial of John Hunter's operation
Mon, 03 Dec 2007 18:07:40 -0000
Abstract  Analysis of the original documents on Hunter's operation revealed that Hunter himself never realized the theoretical implications of his operation, particularly that collateral circulation could develop following ligation of the main arterial trunk of a limb. This operation, however, marks a monumental step in the history of vascular surgery. Even though supplanted only one century later by Matas' obliterating endoaneurysmorraphy, this technique became the first efficient means of managing popliteal aneurysms, the prognosis of which had been absolutely disastrous until that time, leading to either amputation or death in most cases.

The short retropharyngeal route for arterial bypass across the neck
Mon, 03 Dec 2007 18:07:40 -0000
Abstract  Occasionally, in order to revascularize the carotid bifurcation one may need to cross the neck with a bypass that originates in the opposite subclavian or common carotid artery. This report describes a short, natural route behind the pharynx that permits using a shorter bypass as well as a direct reimplantation of one common carotid into its opposite without an intervening graft.
