Here, we presented the first case according to literature wherein colonic SEMS was inserted for
stenotic CD instead of re-surgery because of concomitant Child B cirrhosis and severe portal hypertension.
Reformatted coronal abdominal MRA images demonstrating the
stenotic segment of the left renal artery and abdominal aorta (arrows).
The severity of CAD was determined based on the number of
stenotic vessels showing more than 50% stenosis.
In our case, there were no affected regions in the main
stenotic lesion, likely suggesting that cancerous lesion was covered with normal epithelia.
Critical information of blood flow in the
stenotic coronary arteries is a principle factor of the development and progression of atherosclerosis.
The
stenotic aortic valve was crossed with some difficulty, and a stiff guide wire was placed in the left ventricle.
Trachea was visualized, and
stenotic portion of the trachea was resected, and end-to-end anastomosis was done with 3/0 Prolene suture material, and a Romo vac drain was kept in situ.
He informed that Intravascular or intracardiac 'Stenoses' (narrowing of a passage in the body, occur in many forms of congenital heart disease (CHD) and the implantation of stents has become an accepted interventional procedure for
stenotic lesions in pediatric cardiology.
Finally, another relevant aspect of this report was the
stenotic lesion which was ascribed to a dysplastic aortic valve instead of a fibrous subaortic ring, the latter of which is the most common obstructive aortic lesion in dogs (COELHO, 2010).
On fiberoptic endoscopic laryngeal examination, a spindle-shaped
stenotic area with smooth mucosal surface was observed in the subglottic area (Figure 1a).
In the European Union, the Shockwave Medical Coronary Rx Lithoplasty System is indicated for lithotripsy enhanced, low-pressure balloon dilatation of calcified,
stenotic de novo coronary arteries prior to stenting.
The term Moyamoya refers to the appearance on angio-graphy of abnormal vascular collateral networks that develop adjacent to the
stenotic vessels.
Prestudy using a patency capsule is advised prior to regular capsule endoscopy [1], especially for patients who are suspected of having a
stenotic lesion in the gut, because the capsule is dissolvable and naturally broken down within 100-200 hours.
Histological investigations have confirmed that venous neointimal hyperplasia is the predominant cause of
stenotic lesions of AVF failure [4].
