Pial arteriovenous fistulas (pAVF) are rare vascular lesions consisting of one or more arterial connections to a single venous channel without any intervening nidus of vessels or capillaries. Case 1: A 65-year-old woman with a complaint of headache and left hand paresthesia was referred to us.
A 62-year-old woman who had suffered from Behçet disease since 1975 was admitted to Kawasaki Municipal Hospital because of severe headache and consciousness disturbance in July 1988. The emergency brain CT scan showed subarachnoid hemorrhage. Despite clipping the neck of the cerebral aneurysm, she
Intracranial pial arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are rare vascular lesions of the brain. These lesions consist of one or more arterial connection to a single venous channel without true intervening nidus. A 24-year-old woman visited to our hospital because of headache, vomiting, dizziness and memory
A 28-year-old woman presented with an unusual case of giant thrombosed varix with calcified walls that had mass effects secondary to a pial single-channel arteriovenous fistula (AVF) associated with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). She consulted our hospital for chronic headache. She had
A 23-year-old woman developed thrombosis of the superior mesenteric vein and underwent an extensive enterectomy. She was diagnosed to have ATIII deficiency with extrahepatic portal vein thrombosis and esophagogastric varices. She was admitted to our department and underwent esophageal mucosal
A double-blind, multicenter trial was carried out to assess the effectiveness of isosorbide-5-mononitrate in preventing recurrent variceal hemorrhage during the course of endoscopic sclerotherapy. Seventy-six patients with their first bleeding episode from esophageal varices were randomly allocated,
Outpatient surgery of varices of the lower limbs is currently considered a viable alternative to traditional surgery with hospitalization. This paper reports the experience of 4 university groups (Padua, Modena, Verona, Milan), where outpatient treatment has been used since 1987. From June 1987 to
This paper presents the hypothesis, that pain and functional disturbances of organs which lie on the midline of the body might be caused by a venous congestion of these organs. Cause of their congestion is the participation of these organs (vertebral column, skull, brain, spinal medullary, uterus,
Varicose esophageal veins bleeding is one of severe complications of hepatic cirrhosis. This complication is effectively managed with combination of beta-blockers with nitrates. Of the latter, optimal is isosorbite-5-mononitrate (mono mac). Its minimal risk of development of nitrate tolerance and
The aim is to present our experience and observations regarding varicose vein treatment by means of ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy (UGFS). The study included 81 patients, 54 with insufficient main stem superficial veins in one limb and 27 with both limbs affected. Great saphenous vein
BACKGROUND

OBJECTIVE
Beside varicose vein surgery, endovenous procedures (endovenous laser therapy, VNUS and foam sclerotherapy) are now therapeutic options with the following advantages: low invasiveness, only out-patient operations, quick resumption of general activities. Whether or not classical vein
METHODS
Foam sclerotherapy is a potential treatment for varicose veins. A systematic review was undertaken to assess its safety and efficacy.
RESULTS
Sixty-nine studies were included. The median rates of serious adverse events, including pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis, were less than 1
Having confirmed the development of cephalea in a large number of patients undergoing saphenectomy under subarachnoidal anasthetic, the authors wanted to research its probable causes. With this in mind, they observed a group of patients who had varices of the lower limbs which they had operated.
OBJECTIVE
After a review of the main radiosurgical published series, to evaluate our own series of 705 patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformations treated by radiosurgery alone or in combination with embolization or surgery.
METHODS
and method. From January 1984 to December 1998, 705 patients
