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.

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.

Haemophilus parainfluenzae, one of the member of the HACEK group of gram-negative oropharyngeal species, is a rare cause of subacute native valve endocarditis. Infective endocarditis caused by H. parainfluenzae appears to carry a high incidence rate of cerebral embolism, often making the timing of surgical intervention difficult. A 52-year-old male was diagnosed with acute endocarditis caused by H. parainfluenzae complicated with acute cerebral infarctions. After institution of antibiotic therapy, this patient was mechanically ventilated because of the sudden onset of dyspnea. Repeated two-dimensional echocardiography demonstrated rate-dependent mitral stenosis without interval change of vegetations on the mitral valve. Making a decision regarding the timing of surgical intervention was difficult because of a fear of clinical deterioration after early valve replacement.

The ideal graft requires acceptable size, less tissue toxicity, resistance to infection, and long-term durability. Great saphenous veins are gaining popularity as acceptable graft conduits, but they require time to grow in caliber. We report 2 cases of graft bypass and reconstruction using superficial femoral veins to acheive immediate high-flow patency.
