A 58-year-old male was admitted with several months of a nonhealing sinus draining through the right popliteal fossa. He had a history of type 2 diabetes mellitus, former tobacco abuse. He had undergone repair of abdominal aortic
vein only stent groups. One patient (1%) developed renal vein thrombosis treated with thrombolysis and stenting. Thirty patients (77%) with stents across the renal veins had follow-up imaging and all 30 (100%) had patent renal veins.Conclusions: Renal vein confluence stenting with small and large lattice stents does not compromise renal function or renal vein patency and may be performed when clinically indicated with few complications.
history of hypertension, history of diabetes, pre-EVAR hypogastric intervention, side of wound, incision type (vertical or horizontal), operative times, history of smoking, and death rates were not statistically different between the two groups.Conclusions: Retrospective analysis of EVAR wounds found elevated CWD more commonly in the WC group. BMI was also increased values in the WC group. Other potential factors that are known to affect wound healing (wound configuration, diabetes, age, etc) were not found to be statistically different between the two groups. Future calculations using CWD in other operative exposures could possibly predict WCs and warrants future study in other settings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
