Pseudoaneurysm typically occurs when there is a breach in the vessel wall such that the blood leaks through the inner wall but is contained by the adventitia or surrounding perivascular soft tissue. These may be caused due to trauma to the vessel (either due to fractures, bony fragments), following endovascular therapy , or infective etiology, or other causes. Tibial and pedal artery aneurysms occur in the setting of penetrating trauma, fractures, or iatrogenic injury during orthopaedic surgery or peripheral interventions. Those causing significant symptoms must be repaired with autologous vein bypass grafts if there is distal ischemia. If other tibial arteries are patent, a simple ligation will also suffice. Coil embolization and conservative management resulting in spontaneous thrombosis of small pseudoaneurysms, have also been reported. We report a case of a 51 year old male with right Anterior Tibial Artery pseudoaneurysm which had developed over several years after a trauma with the patient presenting to us only after he started having symptoms of distal ischemia.","PeriodicalId":13375,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery","volume":"1 1","pages":"212 - 215"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70769130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this case report, we bring to notice this extremely rare presentation and challenges faced during management. A 26-year-old young healthy individual presented with painless cord-like swellings on both sides of the neck for 1 month. This was evaluated to be external jugular vein (EJV) thrombosis on ultrasonography Doppler. Trying to evaluate the cause of the thrombosis, there was no specific etiology found. On further detailed evaluation, it was found that he had hypopigmented skin patches. This led to the diagnosis of borderline tuberculoid leprosy downgrading to borderline lepromatous in type 1 lepra reaction. He responded to rifampicin, clofazimine, and dapsone with progressive resolution of skin lesions. Simultaneous treatment with apixaban caused complete resolution of EJV thrombosis. Further evaluation revealed heterozygous methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase mutation and beta-2-glycoprotein immunoglobulin M positivity. An extensive literature review suggested that intimal damage caused by lepra bacilli can lead to veinous thrombosis in Hansen's disease. However, the interplay of genetic procoagulant predispositions in phenotypic presentation is yet to be determined.","PeriodicalId":13375,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery","volume":"1 1","pages":"219 - 221"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70768269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: In our clinic, we evaluated the flow meter measurement results with patency rates and usability after 6 months of AVF in 100 patients who underwent AVF operation due to chronic renal failure. Findings: In February 2012, transit-time flow measurement was put into use in our clinic. The last 50 consecutive patients with the same characteristics before this date constituted the control group (Group A) and the first 50 consecutive patients after this date constituted the study group. Radiocephalic fistula was made the most common (Group A, n = 50; Group B, n = 50). Nondominant upper extremity was selected when planning AVF for patients. First radiocephalic, then brachiocephalic AVF was performed. Fistulas flow was measured with an intraoperative flow meter. Those with bad flow were revised during the operation. Embolectomy was performed in one patient at the 2nd month due to fistula thrombosis, but it was not successful in one patient, and an AVF was opened with a graft. Results: While creating AVF, our aim is to use it effectively for a long time. By evaluating the fistula flows with the flow meter and make an intraoperative revision if necessary we ensure to extend the lifespan of a fistula.","PeriodicalId":13375,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery","volume":"10 1","pages":"104 - 108"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42437013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study evaluated the clinical and histopathological factors predicting AVF nonmaturation. Methodology: This prospective observational study was conducted over 18 months in 100 patients. AVF site venous tissue samples of 55 4/5 chronic kidney disease stages patients were collected. Histopathological analysis was done to detect four immunohistochemistry (IHC) markers, namely cluster of differentiation (CD68), CD31, α-SMA, and Ki67. IIntimal composition, hyperplasia, and calcification were also assessed. Fistulae were followed up at the 2nd, 6th, and 12th weeks and classified into mature and nonmature groups at 12 weeks based on clinical and Doppler examination. A comparison between the two groups was done and an association of radiological, histopathological, and IHC parameters of nonmature AVF was also carried out. Results: Among 55 patients, 35 (63.6%) had mature AVF and 26 (47%) had preexisting NIH. Preexisting NIH had no significant association with maturation (odds ratio: 0.44). Subjects without preexisting NIH had a significantly higher luminal diameter in 2nd week (P ≤ 0.05). There was a significant increase in blood flow both between the 2nd and 6th and between the 6th and 12th week (P < 0.05). Of the four IHC markers, three markers viz., CD68 (ρ = 0.525), CD31 (ρ = 0.420), and α-smooth muscle actin (ρ = 0.718) correlated significantly (P < 0.05) with the NIH. The mean AVF diameter and blood flow in the matured arm were more than that in the nonmatured arm at all the follow-ups (P < 0.09). Conclusion: The presence of CD68, CD31, and α-smooth muscle actin in the venous tissue suggests preexisting NIH which postoperative luminal diameter and blood flow may have long-term consequences in AVF functioning.","PeriodicalId":13375,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery","volume":"10 1","pages":"118 - 125"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48666112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients with poor caliber veins distally on initial evaluation or with multiple fistula failures, basilic vein transposition is a good alternative. We present our experience with basilic vein transposition at our center. Methods: This study was a single-center observational study. A retrospective review of prospectively collected data from December 2013 to June 2019 was done. Qualitative variables were expressed as frequencies/percentages and compared between groups using the Chi-square test. Quantitative variables were expressed as mean ± standard deviation and compared between groups using unpaired t-test between groups and paired t-test within groups across follow-ups. Multiple linear regression analysis using a stepwise model selection tool was used to assess factors affecting the first cannulation. The best model was arrived in four steps where explanatory power (R2) increased from 66.6% to 79.3% (P < 0.001). Results: One hundred and eighty-eight patients formed a part of the study. One hundred and sixty-four patients underwent single stage, whereas 24 underwent two-stage transposition. Ninety-four each were male and female. The mean age was 51.38 ± 14.74 years. About 96.27% of fistulas underwent successful cannulation. The overall mean maturation time was 44.46 ± 7.21 days. It was 42.28 ± 3.71 for single and 60.27 ± 6.66 days for two-stage procedures. Primary patency at 6 months and 1 year were 92.82% and 85.67%, whereas primary-assisted patency rates were 94.6% and 91%. The secondary patency rate at 1 year was 60.77%. Salvage procedures included thrombolysis in 2, thrombectomy in 18, and thrombectomy with venoplasty in four cases. There were 28 failures. Fistula thrombosis was the most common cause. Complications included transient arm edema in 36.7%, late thrombosis in 7.7%, wound infection in 4.4%, and lymphorrhea in 6.9% of patients. Conclusion: The smallest basilic vein diameter for successful transposition is 2.5 mm. Factors used to predict successful maturation are initial vein diameter ≥2.5 mm, preoperative Peak systolic velocity (PSV) in brachial artery >70 cm/s, fistula flow rate of >400 ml/min at 6 weeks, and fistula diameter >4.5 mm at 06 weeks.","PeriodicalId":13375,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery","volume":"10 1","pages":"98 - 103"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48768512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
