This study aimed to analyze the safety and mid-term outcomes of a hybrid treatment method combining rotational atherectomy (RA) with drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty in patients with femoropopliteal arter...

In veterinary medicine, especially within large animal medical and surgical clinics, addressing cavitary defects is a primary concern. In bovines, umbilical hernias are the most common defect, and surgical repair often necessitates the use of prosthetic materials. However, there is a high rate of recurrence with sutures or synthetic meshes, largely due to tissue contamination. The development of biological patches for such repairs is still in its early stages in veterinary medicine, with no...

Chondrosarcoma primarily occurs in the pelvis and femur, with occasional cases in the ribs. Surgical resection remains the main treatment method for costal chondrosarcoma. However, complete resection often lea...

Idiopathic popliteal artery pseudoaneurysms are exceedingly rare, posing significant diagnostic challenges due to their elusive etiology. This report presents the case of a 78-year-old female with no history of trauma or orthopedic procedures who was diagnosed with a large pulsatile mass in the right popliteal fossa. Arteriography confirmed a popliteal artery pseudoaneurysm. Despite extensive clinical evaluation, no causative factors were identified, suggesting an idiopathic diagnosis. The...

In treating aortic root diseases, the Bentall procedure offers reliable and stable results. However, it requires a prosthetic valved conduit, which presents inherent challenges due to the need for anticoagulation. The Ozaki procedure, which uses pericardium for aortic valve neocuspidization, is an alternative to prosthetic valves and does not need anticoagulation. We developed a surgical technique combining the Bentall and Ozaki procedures to treat patients with aortic root disease, which we...

Saphenous vein graft percutaneous coronary intervention (SVG PCI) following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is commonly used procedure for patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Emergin...

Diagnosis of parathyroid carcinoma as a rare cause of primary hyperparathyroidism is usually very challenging, even after surgical resection.
