Presentation
Thus, patients with IE presenting with intracranial hemorrhage should undergo vascular imaging, preferably with cerebral angiography. Published by the BMJ Publishing Group Limited. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Entire Body System
- Pathologist
When should you expect results from the pathologist regarding tissue taken out, during the Procedure? Since no tissue is removed during the procedure, a pathologist does not get involved in the care of the patient. [dovemed.com]
Cardiovascular
- Thrombosis
Following the angiogram, femoral artery thrombosis developed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The latter include vascular abnormalities, including angiomas, fistulas, and aneurysms; atherosclerotic and non-atherosclerotic stenosis and occlusion of the cerebral vessels; and venous thrombosis. [books.google.com]
Angiography may be utilized to identify bleeding aneurysms, vasospasm, and arteriovenous malformations, and to differentiate embolism from large artery thrombosis [Adams HP, et al, 1994. Mohr JP, 1992]. [strokecenter.org]
The absence of complicated hematoma, dissection or thrombosis may be related to the smaller catheter size (4F) used in our study. [em-consulte.com]
Neurologic
- Intracranial Hemorrhage
Four cases of anterior communicating aneurysms are reported with clinical presentations of recurrent intracranial hemorrhage undisclosed in their cerebral angiography. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Urogenital
- Renal Injury
CONCLUSION: We have observed a very low rate of renal injury in patients with chronic kidney disease, traditionally considered high risk for neuroendovascular procedures. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Renal Insufficiency
Patients with renal insufficiency or renal failure who were candidates for arteriovenous (AV) fistulas—as determined through discussion with the referring physician—were excluded, because patency of the radial artery is imperative for the success of the [ajnr.org]
- Kidney Failure
Also, tell your healthcare provider if you have kidney failure or other kidney problems. Tell your healthcare provider if you have liver or thyroid conditions. In some cases, this procedure is not advised for people with these conditions. [hopkinsmedicine.org]
Workup
The intracarotid sodium Amytal injection (Wada) test is a specialized procedure performed in the workup of patients with seizure disorders who are being considered for surgical resective therapy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Catheter and Guidewire Selection For patients undergoing angiography for a workup of carotid stenosis, a pigtail catheter (Cook) was placed over a Bentson guidewire into the ascending aorta for arch aortography. [ajnr.org]
Treatment
Current treatments of cerebral aneurysms are imperfect, and aneurysmal hemodynamics is an important factor in treatment failure. The identification of hemodynamic factors that influence treatment success could predict outcome. [clinicaltrials.gov]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Iatrogenic dissection is a known complication of cerebral angiography, but the clinical outcomes and optimal treatment of these patients is not well established. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Once we've approved your claim, you'll get the private treatment you need. 3 And we’ll pay for treatment After you've been treated, send us your invoices. [aviva.co.uk]
Prognosis
The incidence, timing, sex, age, inducing factors, risk factors, prevention measures and prognosis are discussed and reviewed in conjunction with the literature. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
As far as the evolution is concerned, and after considering other cases previously published, we think that the prognosis of this phenomenon is usually ominous. [revistaneurocirugia.com]
Etiology
Yield of cerebral angiography is high in diagnosing the etiology. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiology
Diffusion-weighted MRI may be useful in defining the pathophysiology. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Numerous studies have documented the incidence of stroke associated with cerebral angiography, yet the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms remain diverse. [medlink.com]
The issues of intracranial stenosis are complex, both in terms of pathophysiology and adequate management. [neuroangio.org]
Prevention
Strict adherence to meticulous angiographic technique may prevent such an angiographic complication. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prevent post procedure hypertension (labetalol) to avoid intracranial bleeding. Last revised 05/2013 Talke [anesthesia.ucsf.edu]
Preventing Stroke with Cerebral Angiography This is a test that may be performed when a doctor needs more information to plan treatment after noninvasive testing. [stcharleshealthcare.org]
