ABSTRACT The intragastric balloon system is a minimally invasive weight loss measure for people with obesity.

We treated a 70-year-old man with a giant paraophthalmic region aneurysm of the right internal carotid artery using the parent artery occlusion technique with three detachable balloons. Initially, the patient did well, but migration of the distal balloon into the aneurysm was detected seven months later. This report suggests that initial parent artery occlusion using balloons will not always induce permanent thrombosis of a large aneurysm, because the occlusion and thrombosis is strictly dependant on the position of the balloons that are used, and adjunct use of coils may be indicated.

ABSTRACT Stricture formation is common in Crohn's disease, and endoscopic intervention plays an increasingly important role in managing these strictures. A 61-year-old man with biological aortic prosthesis and a 30-year history of ileocolonic stricturing Crohn's disease, managed with azathioprine and infliximab, presented with marked occlusive symptoms. Colonoscopy revealed a descending colon stricture, prompting endoscopic balloon dilation. At the time of the procedure, no prophylactic antibiotic was given. Subsequently, he developed Streptococcus gallolyticus endocarditis, necessitating aort

We report a case of posttuberculosis (TB) tracheobronchial stenoses presented with progressive exertional dyspnea during the course of anti-TB treatment. An 83-year-old Japanese man was admitted for progressive dyspnea; chest X-ray and CT showed stenosis of distal trachea and left main bronchus. Pulmonary function test revealed reduction of FEV1. Balloon dilatation without stent insertion was the choice for this patient for multiple reasons with marked improvement of symptoms.

Introduction Vertebral artery injury caused by penetrating neck trauma is a rare occurrence. Direct surgical repair is difficult due to anatomy and exposure. Proximal and distal ligation or/and embolization represent the most common management in cases which require intervention. Case report A young man accidentally stabbed in the neck was admitted to the emergency department with active arterial bleeding from the wound. Immediate surgical exploration revealed an isolated injury of the left vertebral artery intraosseous segment. Lesion was managed by proximal segment ligature and distal Fogart

Abstract:
BACKGROUND The treatment of postoperative anastomotic stenosis (AS) after resection of colorectal cancer is challenging. Endoscopic balloon dilation is used to treat stenosis in such cases, but some patients do not show improvement even after multiple balloon dilations. Magnetic compression technique (MCT) has been used for gastrointestinal anastomosis, but its use for the treatment of postoperative AS after colorectal cancer surgery has rarely been reported.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE: Balloon-assisted coil placement is an important technique for coil embolization of broad-neck aneurysms. With this technique, we can prevent coil migration into a parent artery during a procedure. Complications of intraprocedural coil migration have been reported in the literature. However, delayed coil migration is extremely rare. We present a case of delayed coil migration after balloon-assisted coil embolization and describe our management of this complication.

AbstractResuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a percutaneous transfemoral balloon technique used in select centers for resuscitation and temporary hemostasis of bleeding patients. Several animal studies demonstrated that its application in non-traumatic cardiac arrest could enhance cerebral and coronary perfusion during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR); despite this, there are few reports of its application in humans. This is a case report of REBOA application during a refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in a 50-year-old man where Advanced Cardiac Life S

A 70-year-old man was admitted with fever and urinary retention. Suprapubic catheter (SPC) was placed following failed attempts to catheterise due to a urethral stricture. The patient subsequently improved and a micturating cystourethrogram (MCUG) was arranged to assess his stricture. Upon injection of contrast via his SPC at the time of MCUG, it was noted the catheter had been inadvertently placed and the balloon dilated in the proximal third of the patient's right ureter. The balloon was deflated and the catheter repositioned. An intravenous urogram done 4 weeks following repositioning of hi
