Comparison of physiological and post-endovascular aneurysm repair infrarenal blood flow
(2017)Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysms results in redirection of blood through the deployed endograft (EG). Even though EVAR is clinically effective, the absolute flow restoration is not warranted. ... -
Complexity of persistent type II endoleak associated with sac expansion after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair
(2015)Type II endoleak after endovascular aortic aneurysm repair still remains the Achilles’ heel of the treatment, the source of which regularly is difficult to identify and treat. We present a patient with a persistent type ... -
Computed tomography study of radial head morphology
(2008)Computed tomography scans of 22 cadaveric adult elbows were obtained in 3 forearm positions: full supination, neutral, and full pronation. The radial head dimensions, the radiocapitellar joints, and the proximal radioulnar ... -
Concurrent cardiac sarcoidosis and obstructive sleep apnea presenting as arrhythmias
(2020)Background: Cardiac involvement is a rare and potentially fatal presentation of sarcoidosis. Obstructive sleep apnea may complicate sarcoidosis. Case presentation: We report a case of a sarcoidosis patient with cardiac ... -
Confluent hepatic fibrosis as the presenting imaging sign in nonadvanced alcoholic cirrhosis
(2004)Confluent hepatic fibrosis (CHF) is usually a feature of advanced cirrhosis, while occurrence in early stage compensated cirrhosis is uncommon. We report the imaging findings of masslike CHF in a patient with previously ... -
Congenital peritoneal encapsulation of the small intestine: A rare case report
(2016)Introduction Peritoneal Encapsulation (PE) is a scarce congenital malformation, characterized by a supplementary peritoneal membrane that covers all or a part of the small intestine. Presentation of case PE was unexpectantly ... -
Conjugate eye deviation as predictor of acute cortical and subcortical ischemic brain lesions
(2016)Objectives Non-enhanced computed tomography (NECT) of the brain is used to exclude intracranial hemorrhage in patients who are considered for treatment with tissue plasminogen activator due to stroke symptoms. However, ... -
Consensus statements and recommendations from the ESO-Karolinska Stroke Update Conference, Stockholm 11–13 November 2018
(2019)The purpose of the European Stroke Organisation–Karolinska Stroke Update Conference is to provide updates on recent stroke therapy research and to give an opportunity for the participants to discuss how these results may ... -
The contribution of laboratory animals to diagnostic imaging research in Greece
(2017)Biomedical research in Greece has rapidly developed during the last 30 years. Diagnostic imaging groundwork is a significant field of interest which has been developed by taking advantage of the basic and applied research ... -
Could IGF-I levels play a neuroprotective role in patients with large vestibular schwannomas?
(2018)Aim: To evaluate the possible superiority of outcome in patients with elevated IGF-I levels after vestibular schwannoma (VS) resection. Patients & methods: This retrospective study included 65 patients (34 male, 52.3%) ... -
Current status of endovascular treatment of aortoenteric fistula
(2017)Aortoenteric fistula (AEF) is one of the most challenging diagnostic and therapeutic entities in vascular surgery. AEF can occur either primarily involving the aorta and the gastrointestinal tract or, more commonly, secondary ... -
Cyclopia and exadactyly: CT and MRI findings
(1999)Cyclopia is a congenital abnormality consisting of fused orbits and a single eye and is the most extreme form of alobar holoprosencephaly. The present case describes the CT and MRI findings in the skull of a 33-week-old ... -
Diagnosis and treatment of acute isolated proximal internal carotid artery occlusions: a narrative review
(2022)The clinical manifestations of proximal (extracranial) internal carotid artery occlusions (pICAOs) may range from asymptomatic to acute, large, and devastating ischemic strokes. The etiology and pathophysiology of the ... -
Diffuse pigmented villonodular synovitis of the knee joint: 3-year follow-up of a case report
(2022)Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a proliferative, recurrent and locally invasive disease of the synovium. The symptoms of the disorder are not typical and thus it is very often misdiagnosed. Most of the times, ... -
Discrimination of exudative pleural effusions based on pleural adenosine deaminase (Ada)-c-reactive protein (crp) levels, and their combination: An observational prospective study
(2021)(1) Background: Malignant (MPE), parapneumonic (PPE) and tuberculous (TPE) pleural effusions constitute common causes of pleurisy. Discriminating among them is usually challenging. C-reactive protein (CRP) and adenosine ... -
Double fixation for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair using AFX body and Endurant proximal aortic cuff: Mid-term results
(2017)Our goal was to evaluate the use of an AFX main body combined with an Endurant proximal aortic cuff to treat selected patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) associated with anatomical challenges, such as a small ... -
Early recurrence in paroxysmal versus sustained atrial fibrillation in patients with acute ischaemic stroke
(2019)Background: The relationship between different patterns of atrial fibrillation and early recurrence after an acute ischaemic stroke is unclear. Purpose: In a prospective cohort study, we evaluated the rates of early ischaemic ... -
Early versus Late initiation of direct oral Anticoagulants in post-ischaemic stroke patients with atrial fibrillatioN (ELAN): Protocol for an international, multicentre, randomised-controlled, two-arm, open, assessor-blinded trial
(2022)Rationale: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) are highly effective in preventing ischaemic strokes in people with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it is unclear how soon they should be started after acute ischaemic stroke ... -
Effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme tag single nucleotide polymorphisms on the outcome of patients with traumatic brain injury
(2015)Background Genetic variants appear to influence, at least to some degree, the extent of brain injury and the clinical outcome of patients who have sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Angiotensin-converting enzyme ...
