The left vertebral artery and the LIMA originate from the left subclavian artery and the presence of the subclavian artery stenosis may cause insufficient, even retrograde blood flow in these vessels, ...

Introduction Vertebral artery (VA) dissection caused by swinging a golf club is extremely rare, and only a few cases of dissection have been reported. [1–3] Sudden head rotation in swinging a ...

Objective Serum uric acid (SUA) has been associated with cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis and carotid artery stenosis. However, data on the relationship between SUA level and ...

ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in the right ventricle (RV) associated with right coronary artery (RCA) occlusion is known to have high hospital mortality. The hypothesis tested in this ...

Figure 4. Digital subtraction angiography with early and late phase demonstrating (A) left subclavian artery occlusion with (B) retrograde vertebral filling of proximal subclavian artery.

Background A substantial body of evidence demonstrates that myocardial revascularisation using bilateral internal mammary arteries (BIMA) improves long-term survival compared with single/left internal ...

The optimal treatment of acute large vessel occlusion with concomitant extracranial steno‐occlusive disease of the internal carotid artery remains unclear. The PICASSO (Proximal Internal Carotid ...

Anatomo-physiological conditions such as left-right shunt (increases flow to the pulmonary artery), systemic vascular resistance and PDA contributed to the longevity of the patient in question into ...

We report an exceptional case of a large right persistent proatlantal artery (PPPA), defined as a “mixed” type, because it originated as in Type 2 from the external carotid artery and courses as in ...
