Abstract

Anastomoses between the dorsal artery of penis and the deep penile artery are necessary for revascularization of penile arteries. Radiologic and anatomic proof is provided. Arterio-arterial anastomosis represents a risk factor for thrombosis. For its exclusion the necessary operative course of action is showed. By building an additional arteriovenous shunt close to the arterio-arterial anastomosis the risk of thrombosis is markedly decreased. Our technique produces good results in patients with diagnosed erectile dysfunction of vascular origin with a spontaneous erection when the occasion arises.

Transhepatic vascular access for diagnostic and interventional procedures: techniques, outcome, and complications.

Early or multiple cardiac catheterizations may result in occlusion of the femoral veins prohibiting their use. The internal jugular or sub-clavian approach may be an appropriate alternative. However, these approaches may not be suitable in patients with surgical interruption of the superior vena cava. In other patients, they may not allow easy access to certain areas of the heart. The transhepatic approach is an important alternative route for performing cardiac catheterization and interventions. Depending on the planned procedure, it may be the preferred route to perform the cardiac catheterization even in the presence of patent femoral veins. The indications, technical details and potential complications of this approach are discussed.

Embolization for a bleeding pelvic fracture in a patient with persistent sciatic artery.

Emergency embolization for a bleeding pelvic fracture was performed in a patient with persistent sciatic artery, a rare anatomic variation in which the internal iliac artery continues to the popliteal artery. Successful hemostasis was achieved without complications by means of selective catheterization into each branch of the internal iliac artery. Awareness of this unusual vascular anatomy is critically important to avoid serious complication of emergency embolization.
