It is defined as atherosclerotic lesions with ulceration of the aortic intima and media, and rupture of the internal elastic lamina. PAU is considered as a rare serious clinical entity that may induce aortic dissection, aortic rupture, and secular aortic aneurysm typically occurs in elderly hypertensive patients with severe systemic atherosclerosis disease. The treatment of PAU remains a subject of considerable controversy. With the development of percutaneous techniques of stent placement, stenting has emerged as a new option in the treatment of abdominal aorta PAU. We report a 68 years old man with PAU being diagnosed with symptoms of intermittent claudication of both lower limbs; that underwent intraluminal stenting. The technical success rate was 100%. We obtained excellent short and medium term clinical success without finding any complications related. Although open surgical repair is an effective therapeutic option, endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic PAU is a safe attractive alternative to surgery therapy that should be considered as the treatment of choice.

We conducted this study to review the stenocclusive pathology of the subclavian artery, and to expose our experience in surgical and endovascular management. Material and methods: It is a retrospective and analytical study conducted within the department of vascular surgery of Mohammed VI CHU concerning four observations of patients hospitalized between September 2014 and October 2016 for symptomatic subclavian artery stenosis. Results: The average age of our patients was 78 years, 3 women and one man; atheroma was the cause of the stenosis in all cases. Surgical treatment consisted of subclavio-carotid transposition in 2 cases, carotid-bypass grafting in one case and angioplasty with stent placement in the latter case. Conclusion: It is important for the surgeon to have a thorough understanding of the anatomy and etiology of subclavian artery stenosis, while considering the surgical options. This case series presents some of the treatment options available to vascular surgeons for the management of symptomatic subclavian artery disease.","PeriodicalId":17397,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vascular Medicine & Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72746276","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}

This study assessed the use of CKD-EPI and 4v-MDRD for early diagnosis of renal impairment in pregnant women with hypertension. Methods: This case-control study was conducted at Suntreso Government Hospital Kumasi, Ghana. In all, 220 pregnant women were recruited, 84 had Gestational Hypertension, 36 had Preeclampsia, with 100 normotensive pregnant women as controls. Structured Questionnaires were used to obtain socio-demographic and clinical information. 4 mL of venous blood was collected for estimation of electrolytes, urea, creatinine and uric acid; urine was collected for estimation of protein using dipstick. The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) and Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD-4) equations were used to assess and classify renal impairments. Results: Prevalence of renal impairment using CKD-EPI and MDRD-4 was 4.1% and 0.5% respectively. CKDEPI identified 22.2% of women with preeclampsia as having renal impairment whereas MDRD-4 identified 2.8%. Using CKD-EPI and MDRD-4, eGFR was significantly higher in the controls compared to the cases, (p<0.001). Sodium, chloride, urea, creatinine, uric acid was significantly increased in the hypertensive women. Conclusion: Renal impairment is common in hypertensive pregnant women. CKD-EPI is better equation in early detection of renal impairment in pregnant women and should be adopted as the tool for assessing renal dysfunction during routine antenatal examinations to prevent end-stage renal diseases.","PeriodicalId":17397,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vascular Medicine & Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87891559","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}
