Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of endovascular therapy with covered stent in treating aortoiliac occlusive disease. Methods The clinical data of 20 patients with aortoiliac occlusive disease, who received endovascular therapy with covered stent during the period from January 2014 to December 2016, were collected. According to Rutherford standard of clinical symptom classification, gradeⅢ, grade Ⅳ and grade V were seen in 9, 7 and 4 patients respectively. Based on the Trans-Atlantic Society Coalition (TASC) treatment guidelines Ⅱ classification, B type, C type and D type were observed in 4, 7 and 9 patients respectively. The postoperative primary patency and secondary patency of the stent as well as the clinical efficacy were analyzed. Results Endovascular treatment was successfully accomplished in all 20 patients. After the treatment, the clinical symptoms were significantly relieved. Two patients developed complications (10%). One patient developed thrombus at the distal end of stent, which was improved after thrombolytic therapy. Another patient developed hematoma at puncture site, which was absorbed after conservative therapy. No perioperative death occurred. The patients were followed up for 5-37 months, with a mean of (17±10) months. The primary patency rate was 95% and the secondary patency rate was 100%. Conclusion For the treatment of aortoiliac occlusive disease, endovascular therapy with covered stent has excellent clinical efficacy.

Objective:To investigate whether the clinical efficacy of mechanical pharmacothrombectomy (PMT) in treatment of whole-lower-limb acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) could be improved by the modified approach removing popliteal vein thrombosis.Methods:From Mar 2016 to Mar 2018, 31 patients with whole-lower-limb acute DVT were enrolled and treated with PMT by AngioJet. The clinical data was retrospectively analyzed, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:26 cases were treated by contralateral common femoral vein approach and the other 5 cases by ipsilateral calf deep vein. Urokinase was given in bolus in 29 patients before thrombectomy. After PMT, 7 cases combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis. 26 cases underwent iliac vein PTA, and 14 cases underwent iliac vein stenting. The average hospitalization days was (7.6±1.8) d. The thrombus clearance rate was grade Ⅱ (50%~99%) in 16 cases (51.6%) and grade Ⅲ (100%) in 15 cases (48.4%). 30 patients were followed up and the mean follow-up time was 19.7 months. The 12-month primary patency rate was 83.3%. All the 5 patients with occlusion had different degrees of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), and the incidence of PTS was 16.7% (5/30).Conclusions:The modified approach to treat the whole-lower-limb acute deep vein thrombosis with PMT is safe and effective. The popliteal vein thrombosis can be cleared in one stage. The blood inflow can be improved, and the incidence of PTS is relatively low.

Objective:To analyze the clinical efficacy and safety of endoluminal treatment of complex renal artery aneurysm (RAA).Methods:The clinical data and follow-up results of 19 patients with complex RAA admitted to Renji Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from November 2014 to September 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Two patients were treated with simple spring coil embolization into the aneurysmal artery, 14 patients were treated with simple spring coil embolization of the aneurysmal cavity, and 3 patients were treated with stent-assisted + spring coil embolization technique. Based on the location of the aneurysm, RAA were classified into type Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ. 7 patients with type Ⅰ, 10 patients with type Ⅱ, and 2 patients with type Ⅲ were studied. Variance analysis was used to compare the differences in glomerular filtration rate(GFR) of the affected side when the tumor was located at different locations, and Pearson was used to analyze the correlation between the number of coils implanted and the size of the tumor and GFR.Results:Ten of the 19 patients who were underwent successful endoluminal intervention. The average size of the patients′ aneurysms was (20.89±6.65) mm, and the average number of spring coils implanted was 8.22±3.08. The preoperative and postoperative serum creatinine were in the normal range, and no RAA tumor enlargement or recurrence was found during the follow-up period. The postoperative GFR was abnormal in patients with type Ⅰ, type Ⅱ, and type Ⅲ renal aneurysms, and the mean GFR value differed among the three types of patients( P=0.003). There was a negative correlation between the postoperative GFR values of the affected kidney and the number of spring coils implanted ( P=0.047), and no significant relationship between GFR and aneurysm size. Conclusion:The endovascular technique is an effective and safe means of treating complex RAA.
