Successful retrieval of fractured pressure wire tip (FFR) by hybrid technique.

ABSTRACT: Coronary angiography and angioplasty are relatively safe procedures but not without complications. We report an interesting case of effort angina taken for angioplasty of the LCX and assessment of fractional flow reserve (FFR) for the LAD artery lesion in which the tip of the pressure wire was broken and embolised to the LCX while trying to retrieve it. This is the first case report using a hybrid technique with a slip catheter for the successful retrieval of a fractured FFR wire.

Successful treatment of unexpected complication during aortic stent-grafting: retrieval of broken stent-graft tip by coaxial technique.

Project description:Thoracic aortic endovascular repair (TEVAR) is increasingly preferred as a treatment of choice in thoracic aortic diseases. Intravascular foreign body is one of the TEVAR-related complications similar to the other endovascular operations. Here, to the our best knowledge for the first time in the English literature, this report presents an extremely rare complication of a broken and stuck tip part of aortic stent-graft in the intravascular space and successful removal by using the coaxial technique. Thoracic aortic endovascular repair (TEVAR) has been increasingly preferred as the treatment of choice in thoracic aortic diseases (1). Endovascular treatment has been gaining popularity compared with open surgery due to its less invasive approach and rapid application, and allows the patient to easily return to daily life (2). However, TEVAR is associated with several specific complications including paraplegia, stroke, vascular injuries and local complications. These complications depend on vascular or nonvascular comorbidities, vascular anatomy, equipment, and experience of the provider (3-6). Intravascular foreign body could be among TEVAR-related complications similar to other endovascular operations (7). Several types of equipment, including guidewire, vascular sheath, or suboptimally uncoiled stents may get stuck in the intravascular space, causing complications (8). Herein, to the best of our knowledge, we present the first report in the English literature of broken and stuck tip part of an aortic stent-graft in the intravascular space and its successful removal using the coaxial technique.

Successful Retrieval of a Fractured and Detached Crown From a Coronary Orbital Atherectomy System.

Project description:We report a rare case of crown fracture and detachment from a coronary orbital atherectomy system. During orbital atherectomy in an angulated and calcified coronary vessel, the crown was completely detached and left distal to the stenosis. It was successfully retrieved using a gooseneck snare and a guide-extension catheter. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

The wire loop technique for IVC filter removal.

Project description:Inferior vena cava (IVC) filters are effective therapy to prevent pulmonary embolism in patients with contraindication to anticoagulation. However, IVC wall penetration by the filter struts is a common complication that can lead to symptoms specially when adjacent organs are impacted. This case report and video describe the wire loop technique for successful endovascular IVC filter retrieval in a patient with lower back pain caused by a spinal strut penetration. The patient's back pain resolved after filter retrieval and he remained stable on anticoagulation with no recurrence of venous thromboembolism.

Arthroscopic suture retrieval: a simple technique that disentangles sutures during retrieval.

Project description:Efficient and successful arthroscopic surgery relies on methodical and well-organized suture management. However, it is relatively common, especially in complex arthroscopic procedures, that sutures invariability become entangled or twisted as a result of repeated suture shuttling from portal to portal and between individual suture limbs. When this occurs, this can make antegrade suture passage or arthroscopic knot tying challenging. We describe a simple and efficient technique that allows simultaneous retrieval of 2 suture limbs while ensuring that the sutures are disentangled.

A modified technique for intraluminal stenting of glaucoma drainage devices: The guide-wire technique.

Project description:Glaucoma drainage tubes have become increasingly popular in the surgical management of uncontrolled glaucoma. Flow restriction is essential to prevent early postoperative hypotony with non-flow restrictive glaucoma drainage devices. Herein, we describe a new way of using a 3-0 Supramid suture as an intraluminal stent. This technique confers no risk of stent exposure, can be removed ab interno without disturbing the conjunctiva, and aids insertion of the tube into the anterior chamber through a scleral tunnel.

Nasal Tip Delamination: A Technique for Nasal Tip Projection and Control in Rhinoplasty.

Project description:BackgroundControl of tip projection and rotation is critical to a successful rhinoplasty. Suture techniques that change the relationship of the medial crura to the caudal septum can effectively manage tip position, but may be technically challenging or require specialized sutures. The authors present a technique ("tip delamination") that allows symmetrical exposure of the medial crura and caudal septum for accurate placement of projection control sutures using commonly available suture materials.MethodsWe describe a novel technique to completely expose (or delaminate) the medial crura of the lower lateral cartilages to allow for 360-degree access to and manipulation of these critical structures. We present a case series of 3 patients.ResultsExemplary cases with 1 intraoperative video will be reviewed to demonstrate how tip delamination allows for more precise control of the medial crura and nasal tip.ConclusionsNasal tip delamination is a simple technique for manipulating the medial crura and nasal tip in rhinoplasty procedures. Nasal tip delamination adds minimal time and morbidity to the procedure and offers significant control for the surgeon, with beneficial outcomes for the patient.

Kirschner Wire Reference Technique in Open-Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy.

Project description:Open-wedge high tibial osteotomy is a common procedure to treat young adult and adult patients with symptomatic varus malalignment. The purpose of the high tibial osteotomy is to shift the mechanical load from the medial compartment to the lateral compartment. There are several methods to determine the correct alignment, such as the cable method, the gap measurement method, the navigator system, or the patient-specific cutting guide method. The cable and gap measurement techniques are easy to use, but the results of these techniques are unpredictable. The navigator and patient-specific cutting guide methods have high accuracy in attaining the desired correction alignment, but they are quite costly. We propose a technique we call the Kirschner wire reference method, which is easy to use to achieve the desired alignment correction, without requiring specialized or expensive equipment.
