A technique for non-deflating balloon catheter removal in female patients.

ABSTRACT: Removing a foley catheter can sometimes be a challenge, especially when it is related to non-deflating balloons which represent most of the cases. In female patients, due to their urethral anatomy, several techniques have been proposed for balloon puncture when other maneuvers have failed. We present a simple technique for non-deflating balloon catheter removal in an old female patient with a permanent indwelling foley catheter which required no anesthesia. The balloon was effectively punctured with minimal patient's discomfort. In addition, this technique was tested in several ex-vivo model catheters and found to be safe and effective. Our technique can be used for non-deflating balloon puncture in female patients in an outpatient setting without anesthesia.

Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty with Inoue balloon catheter technique for pulmonary valve stenosis in adolescents and adults.

Project description:BackgroundPercutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty is the procedure of choice for uncomplicated severe or symptomatic pulmonary stenosis. The present study describes our experience in balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty using the Inoue balloon catheter in adolescent and adult patients.AimsTo assess the immediate and mid-term outcomes of percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty with Inoue balloon catheter in adolescent and adult patients.Methods and resultsBetween June 2010 and July 2015, we performed percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty with Inoue balloon catheter in 32 patients (59.37% females) aged 8 to 54 years (mean 23.6±11.5). Following the procedure, the mean right ventricular systolic pressure and the pulmonary valvular peak-to-peak systolic gradient decreased from (121.6±42.4 to 61.19±24.5mmHg, p=0.001) and (100.9±43.3 to 36.4±22.5mmHg, p=0.001), respectively. Twenty patients (Group A) showed immediate optimal results with post-procedure peak systolic gradient <36mmHg while 12 patients (Group B) had suboptimal results. An increase in pulmonary regurgitation by one grade was detected in 17 patients (53.2%). Twenty-three patients available for follow-up (mean duration, 2.75 years [range 0.25-5 years]) had a mean residual peak gradient of 23.6±2.51mmHg on Doppler echocardiography with attenuation of reactive RVOT stenosis in all Group B patients. There was no further increase in grade of pulmonary regurgitation or restenosis on mid-term follow-up.ConclusionPercutaneous Inoue balloon technique is an attractive alternative with excellent mid-term results for adolescents and adults with isolated pulmonary stenosis.

Balloon Catheter Technique for Prevention of Vascular Injuries During Arthroscopic Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Arthroscopic posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction is a technically demanding procedure and is associated with several intraoperative and postoperative complications, although less-common but intraoperative iatrogenic popliteal artery injuries have been reported. At our center, we developed a simple and effective technique using a Foley balloon catheter that ensures a safe surgery to avoid possible neurovascular complications. Through a lower posteromedial portal, this inflated balloon acts as protective mechanism between the PCL and posterior capsule. Betadine or methylene blue dye is used to inflate this bulb, which provides easy identification if balloon ruptures, as evidenced by leakage of this solution in posterior compartment. This balloon increases significant distance, equivalent to the diameter of the balloon, between the PCL and popliteal artery by pushing the capsule more posteriorly. This balloon catheter protection technique combined with other methods will ensure a greater level of safety when performing an anatomical PCL reconstruction.

Use of the SAND balloon catheter for safe and easy laparoscopic removal of adrenal cysts.

Project description:IntroductionSurgical resection should be considered for giant adrenal cysts if they are functional, if malignancy cannot be ruled out, or if there is a risk of bleeding. However, preventing cyst damage, including fluid leak, and ensuring a good field of view could be challenging in laparoscopic surgery. We report on our successful use of the SAND balloon catheter in laparoscopic adrenalectomy.Case presentationThe patient was a 40-year-old man with a right adrenal cyst that exhibited growth tendency. We performed laparoscopic adrenalectomy using a SAND balloon catheter through a preexisting port. Use of the catheter allowed for not only aspiration of the cyst fluid without leakage into the operative field but also gentle grasping of the cyst wall, which enabled us to easily remove the adrenal gland, including the cyst.ConclusionUse of the SAND balloon catheter facilitates safe and easy laparoscopic resection of giant adrenal cysts.

Surgical Removal of Broken and Inflated Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty Balloon Catheter: Role of Transesophageal Echocardiography.

Project description:An entrapment and breakage of coronary angioplasty catheter during coronary intervention is a rare but serious complication. Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) catheter got entrapped and broken inside the left anterior descending artery (LAD) in a 58-year-old male patient. The whole length of the PTCA catheter was retrieved through an arteriotomy incision in LAD along with reversed saphenous vein graft to LAD, under cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic arrest. We discuss here the various percutaneous retrieval techniques and surgical management of entrapped broken PTCA catheter and also the role of transesophageal echocardiography intraoperatively.

Balloon-hooking technique for stabilizing a guiding catheter in tortuous supra-aortic vessel: A case report.

Project description:Objective: When performing endovascular interventions for supra-aortic vessels, the tortuous vascular anatomy observed in patients with atherosclerotic lesions often limits the ability to maintain a stable guiding catheter position. Here, we report a case of right vertebral artery (VA) stenosis treated with transfemoral stenting and discuss the utility of balloon-hooking technique using partially inflated balloon for stabilizing the balloon guiding catheter (BCG) in the supra-aortic vessel. Case presentation: A 74-year-old man who underwent right carotid artery stenting, coronary artery bypass grafting, and bilateral iliac artery stenting was admitted to our emergency department because of dizziness related to head movement. Computed tomography angiography revealed right VA origin stenosis and left subclavian artery (SA) occlusion. The patient underwent stenting of the right VA. After several unsuccessful cannulation attempts into the right VA through transradial access, transfemoral access was obtained through the left iliac stent. A 9-Fr BGC was navigated into the right SA. The balloon was partially inflated just distal to the first curve of the right SA and used as hook by pulling back until the proximal edge of the balloon was pushed distally by the lesser curvature of the SA, resulting in stabilization of the BGC and successful angioplasty and stent deployment at the VA stenosis. The patient's symptoms resolved completely, without any neurological deficits. Conclusions: Balloon-hooking technique using a partially inflated BGC is feasible for stabilizing the guiding catheter in tortuous supra-aortic vessel.

A novel balloon dilation catheter facilitating endoscopic papillary balloon dilation in patients with Roux-en-Y gastrectomy.

Project description:Video 1Selective biliary cannulation was difficult, and the catheter tended to be cannulated into the pancreatic duct. We applied a double-wire technique to achieve biliary cannulation. Finally, selective biliary cannulation was achieved. Cholangiography revealed a small stone of approximately 5 mm in the common bile duct (red arrow). Subsequently, endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD) was performed using a new EPBD catheter with a diameter of 8 mm. This new EPBD catheter was inserted. We inflated this EPBD catheter slightly while observing both endoscopy and fluoroscopy monitors to confirm its dilation process. EPBD was easily and effectively performed without slipping in or out of the papilla. The orifice of the papilla was dilated. Stone extraction was completely achieved.

Efficiency of Air Bubble Removal in Preparation of Low-Profile Angioplasty Balloon Catheter: Bench-Top Comparison of Six Methods.

Project description:PurposeComplete removal of air bubbles from balloons for neurovascular angioplasty is cumbersome. We compared the preparation difficulty, air removal efficiency, and air collection pattern of six different balloon catheter preparation methods to propose a better preparation method for both initial and second balloon uses, especially for small-profile angioplasty balloon catheters.Materials and methodsA total of 18 neurovascular angioplasty balloon catheters with nominal diameters of 2 mm were prepared to test six different preparation methods: the instruction for use method (method A), simplified method using a syringe (method B) and four newly devised preparation methods using inflating devices (methods C-F). Serial radiographs were obtained while the balloons were gradually inflated. We measured the time for each preparation and the bubble number, analyzed their distribution in the balloon, and calculated the contrast filling ratio (contrast filling area/total balloon area) for initial and second ballooning. The whole process was repeated three times.ResultsThe preparation time varied widely (11.5 seconds [method D] to 73.3 seconds [method A]). On initial inflation, the contrast filling ratio at 8 atm was the highest (100%) with methods A and F. On second inflation, the ratio was again highest with method A (99.5%), followed by method F (99.2%). Initial ballooning tended to show a uniform pattern of single bubble in the distal segment of the balloon; in contrast, second ballooning showed varying patterns in which the bubbles were multiple and randomly distributed.ConclusionNone of the six methods were able to completely exclude air bubbles from the balloon catheters including the second ballooning; however, the method of repeating aspiration with high-volume inflating device (method F) could be a practical option considering the simplicity and efficiency of preparation.

Simple bailout technique using a snare catheter for wire withdrawal during balloon-expandable transcatheter aortic valve implantation: a case report

Project description:Abstract Background In transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using a SAPIEN3 balloon-expandable valve (S3), wire withdrawal from the left ventricle (LV) during the procedure before deployment can induce vascular injury in the access site or require surgical treatment when an S3 removal is attempted. We present a successful case of bailout from this situation safely with a minimally invasive technique using a 6-F snare catheter (SC). Case summary An 86-year-old woman with severe aortic stenosis underwent trans-femoral TAVI using an S3 under conscious sedation. After a pre-shaped wire was inserted into the LV from the right femoral artery, the LV wire was accidentally withdrawn completely from the LV before deployment. Wire re-insertion using a soft straight wire through the tip lumen of the S3 was hindered because the wire orientation was uncontrollable. Hence, we used a 6-F SC to control the wire direction by changing the orientation of the S3. Catching the tip of the S3 with an SC at the ascending aorta enabled us to control the wire direction, and wire re-insertion in the LV with the soft wire was successful. Furthermore, the SC worked well in advancing the S3 through the aortic valve to enhance co-axiality without aortic root injury. The S3 was successfully advanced through the aortic valve and implanted at an optimal position without complications. Discussion Our simple technique using a 6-F SC is technically effective, feasible, and minimally invasive and can be an option for bailout from accidental LV wire withdrawal during balloon-expandable valve TAVI.
