1.Achenbach Syndrome: A Benign Painful Blue Finger with Tip Sparing
Vascular Specialist International 2019;35(4):251-253
Vascular surgeons are often consulted for patients with spontaneous painful discoloration of fingers and toes. In most cases, no diagnosis can be ascertained after extensive investigations and the condition resolves spontaneously. Awareness of Achenbach syndrome among physicians may help mitigate anxiety in patients because it is relatively benign and has a good prognosis. This report presents a case of Achenbach syndrome in an Asian woman along with a literature review.

Phlegmasia cerulea dolens (PCD) is one of the most critical disorders of acute deep vein thrombosis in that it can cause permanent disability secondary to the compartment syndrome. Although several etiological factors have been proposed, PCD after coronary artery bypass surgery is extremely rare and its definitive pathophysiology is still under debate. We herein present a case of PCD that resulted in the compartment syndrome after coronary artery bypass surgery. Early recognition and decompression of PCD are crucial for saving the affected limbs.

The literature on minimally invasive techniques specifically targeting reflux in symptomatic femoral vein duplication (FVD) is limited. We present a rare case of symptomatic reflux in FVD, successfully treated with cyanoacrylate glue ablation under ultrasonographic guidance. Our findings suggest that the unique anatomy of FVD can be effectively addressed through percutaneous endovenous glue ablation, providing a technically safe and feasible alternative without open surgery.Our patient experienced symptom resolution, no post-procedural complications, and maintained stable occlusion at a 1-year follow-up. This outcome highlights the potential of endovenous glue ablation as an innovative approach in managing deep vein reflux, particularly in cases involving FVD. To broaden its application in clinical practice, further research is crucial to establish appropriate patient selection criteria and refine treatment protocols.

The indications and applications of arthroscopic surgery for the knee joint have increased with the development in surgical techniques and the improvement of arthroscopic equipment. The use of arthroscopic surgery has led to a significant decrease in morbidity for the patient with intra-articular abnormalities, in terms of both the diagnosis and the surgical treatments. Even though arthroscopy is a minimally invasive technique with relatively low morbidity, it is not without risk of complications, of which neurovascular complications are among the most serious and devastating. Here we report on 2 cases of popliteal artery injury during arthroscopic knee surgery and its specific diagnosis and treatment.

Celiac artery aneurysms are rare, their incidence being reported as only 4% of all visceral artery aneurysms. Atherosclerosis and medial degenerative changes are recognized main pathogenesis. They are usually asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally, but the mortality rate of ruptured celiac artery aneurysm is approximately 80%. So one should give an aggressive surgical aid to the patients. We report 2 cases of celiac artery aneurysm which were successfully treated by elective aneurysmorrhaphy and anerysmectomy with aortoceliac bypass graft.
