RESUMO
Renal artery aneurysm is a rare condition that is being diagnosed with increasing frequency because of wider use of angiotomography. We describe a case of complex type II renal artery aneurysm in a patient with systemic arterial hypertension and non-dialysis chronic kidney disease. The treatment performed was endovascular repair using the remodeling technique with T-stenting and coils to preserve the renal arterial branches, obtaining satisfactory arteriographic results and good clinical outcomes.
RESUMO
Adamantiades-Behçet disease is a multisystemic disorder that classically presents with oral and genital ulcers and ocular involvement, with vascular involvement in up to 38% of cases. Aortic involvement is one of the most serious manifestations and is associated with high mortality rates, occurring in 1.5 to 2.7% of cases. We report a case of a saccular abdominal aorta aneurysm in a 49-year-old male patient with complicated Adamantiades-Behçet disease that was treated with endovascular repair.
RESUMO
Aneurysms of the pancreaticoduodenal arteries are a rare condition. In the majority of cases, diagnosis is made in emergency situations due to complications such as rupture, which is associated with high mortality rates (21-26%). Embolization of the aneurysm sac is the treatment of choice, because of its high efficacy and lower mortality. This article presents and discusses a case of inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysm that was diagnosed during investigation of gastrointestinal symptoms. The treatment provided was microcoil embolization, with complete exclusion of the aneurysm and a good clinical course.
RESUMO
The Budd-Chiari syndrome is a rare hepatic venous disease. It is more prevalent in young adults and may present in acute, subacute, or chronic forms, causing portal hypertension. Traditional treatment consists of thrombolysis techniques and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt, as a bridge to liver transplantation. Recently, use of balloon or stent angioplasty techniques has been reported for treatment of this condition. In this article, we report and discuss a case of BCS by membranous obstruction in the hepatic vein outflow tract, with middle hepatic vein thrombosis, in a 24-year-old patient. The treatment chosen and employed was transjugular balloon angioplasty, which achieved satisfactory results and good clinical evolution.
RESUMO
Uterine Artery Embolization (UAE) is a noninvasive alternative to open surgery for treatment of uterine myomatosis. This study aims to analyze the efficacy and safety of UAE in these cases. A systematic review was carried out of studies available on the Medline (via PubMed) and the LILACS and PEDro (via the Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde) databases. The searches found 817 studies, 7 of which were selected according to the eligibility criteria (analytical, longitudinal, retrospective, or prospective studies), with a total of 367 patients studied. The variables analyzed and the characteristics of the studies included were collated and input to a database. Rates of volume reduction of the uterus and the dominant myoma were 44.1% and 56.3%, respectively. Mean rate of complete infarction of the dominant myoma was 88.6% (82-100%). The mean number of complications observed was 15±8.6 cases, most of which were classified as minor, and no deaths were recorded. The mean number of re-interventions in absolute values was 12.2±15.5 cases. Therefore, in the literature analyzed, uterine artery embolization is an effective procedure with a low rate of complications for treatment of uterine leiomyomatosis.
RESUMO
Resumo O aneurisma da artéria renal é uma condição rara, que vem sendo cada vez mais diagnosticada devido ao uso mais amplo da angiotomografia. Descrevemos um caso de aneurisma da artéria renal tipo II complexo em uma paciente com hipertensão arterial sistêmica e doença renal crônica não dialítica. O tratamento estabelecido foi o reparo endovascular através da combinação da técnica de remodelamento com stents em T e molas, para a preservação dos ramos arteriais renais. Foram obtidos resultados arteriográficos satisfatórios e boa evolução clínica.

Resumo A doença de Adamantiades-Behçet é uma desordem multissistêmica que se apresenta classicamente com úlceras orais e genitais e envolvimento ocular, podendo o acometimento vascular ocorrer em até 38% dos casos. O envolvimento aórtico é uma das manifestações mais severas e está associado a altas taxas de mortalidade, ocorrendo em 1,5 a 2,7% dos casos. Relatamos um caso de aneurisma sacular de aorta abdominal em um paciente de 49 anos com doença de Adamantiades-Behçet complicada, tratada por correção endovascular.

Resumo A síndrome de Budd-Chiari é uma doença venosa hepática rara, mais incidente em adultos jovens, podendo se apresentar na forma aguda, subaguda ou crônica, o que resulta em hipertensão portal. O tratamento tradicional consiste em técnicas de trombólise e de shunts portossistêmicos intra-hepáticos, como pontes para o transplante hepático. Recentemente, técnicas de angioplastia com balão ou stents têm sido relatadas para o tratamento dessa afecção. Neste artigo, é relatado e discutido um caso de síndrome de Budd-Chiari por obstrução membranosa da via de saída da veia supra-hepática com trombose da veia hepática média em uma paciente de 24 anos. O tratamento estabelecido foi a angioplastia transjugular com balão, que obteve resultados satisfatórios e boa evolução clínica.

Resumo Os aneurismas das artérias pancreatoduodenais constituem uma afecção rara. Seu diagnóstico é realizado, na maioria das vezes, em situações de emergência por complicações como a rotura, a qual está associada a altas taxas de mortalidade (21-26%). A embolização do saco aneurismático é o tratamento de escolha, devido à sua alta efetividade e menor mortalidade. Neste artigo, é apresentado e discutido um caso de aneurisma de artéria pancreatoduodenal inferior com diagnóstico obtido durante investigação de sintomas gastrointestinais. O tratamento instituído foi a embolização com micromolas, com completa exclusão do aneurisma e boa evolução clínica.

Resumo A embolização da artéria uterina (EAU) é um tratamento pouco invasivo e alternativo à cirurgia aberta no tratamento de miomatose uterina. Este estudo visa analisar a eficácia e a segurança da EAU nesses casos. Para isso, foi realizada uma revisão sistemática a partir de estudos disponíveis nas bases de dados MEDLINE/PubMed, LILACS e PEDro, via Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde. Foram encontrados 817 trabalhos; destes, 7 foram selecionados pelos critérios de elegibilidade (estudos analíticos, de corte longitudinal, retrospectivos ou prospectivos), totalizando 367 pacientes no estudo. As variáveis estudadas, bem como as características dos estudos incluídos, foram coletadas e armazenadas em um banco de dados. As taxas de redução do volume uterino e do mioma dominante foram 44,1% e 56,3%, respectivamente. A média do infarto completo do mioma dominante foi de 88,6% (82-100%). Quanto às complicações, a média obtida foi de 15±8,6 casos, sendo a maioria destas classificadas como menores, e nenhum óbito foi registrado. A média de reabordagem em valores absolutos foi de 12,2±15,5 casos. Portanto, a embolização da artéria uterina é um procedimento eficaz e com baixa taxa de complicações para o tratamento da leiomiomatose uterina na literatura analisada.
