Abstract:
A stenosing atherosclerotic plaque of the internal carotid artery acts as a source of emboli and may impede flow. The contribution made by a stenosed carotid artery to cerebral perfusion is unclear. This study examined blood flow in the internal carotid artery and a comparison was made with the effect of clamping on flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery. Some 50 patients were assessed before carotid endarterectomy by preoperative duplex scanning, triplanar arteriography and transcranial Doppler ultrasonography. At operation, maximal flow in the internal carotid artery was measured using

The current numerical analysis was utilised to compare the hemodynamic effects caused by flow disruptions in coronary arteries with and without stenosis in order to evaluate the hemodynamic importance of patient-specific coronary stenosis using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to provide information to the public, particularly surgeons, and assist them in reducing the risk of stenosis. Assuming the flow is turbulent and non-Newtonian viscosity, the Carreau model is incorporated by utilizing STAR-CCM+ 2021.2.1.

A numerical analysis has been carried out to investigate the hemodynamic flow through stenosed arteries having mild (S = 25%) to severe (S = 65%) occlusions and under different regimes of flow Reynolds numbers ( Re ) ranging from 50 to 400. Influence of different stenosis shapes (rectangular, trapezoidal, cosine, and Gaussian) on key hemodynamic parameters e.g., recirculation length, wall shear stress (WSS), pressure drop, and irreversible pressure loss coefficient (C I ) are studied. It has been observed that for S = 25%, no flow separation takes place with cosine and Gaussian shaped stenoses

Abstract:
A retrospective review of 20 cases of laryngeal stenosis treated with the carbon dioxide laser was conducted at the Medical College of Wisconsin and Northwestern University. The stenoses were grouped into four categories: supraglottic, glottic, subglottic, and combined glottic-subglottic. Twenty patients had 21 lesions excised by 40 laser procedures. Eleven of 21 stenoses were successfully managed by carbon dioxide laser endoscopy: 3 of 3 supraglottic, 6 of 10 glottic, 2 of 4 subglottic, and 0 of 4 combined laryngeal/tracheal stenoses. Eleven of the 20 patients had significant airway improveme

Abstract:
Purpose Current methods to predict carotid stenosis from ultrasound duplex criteria involve assigning a category of stenosis on the basis of an individual laboratory-defined combination of peak systolic velocity (PSV), end diastolic velocity (EDV), and ratio of internal carotid artery velocity to common carotid artery velocity. This study will define a formula by use of regression analysis of the duplex ultrasound criteria compared with the angiographic results. This study will then compare the formula predictions of stenosis with the current means of combining categories to determine whether

Abstract:
The transfemoral approach is a common technique for carotid artery stenting. However, it has the risk of distal embolism when stenting for a stenosis of the proximal common carotid artery because of poor stability of the guiding catheter resulting in difficulty in setting the embolic protection device prior to stenting. We present a novel therapeutic approach and technique for the treatment of tandem carotid stenoses including the proximal common carotid artery.

Abstract:
Three patients with tandem internal carotid stenoses were treated in one operation including carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for the proximal stenosis and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for the distal stenosis. We devised a Y-shaped shunt tube which we used for CEA, while a PTA balloon catheter was introduced via the tube to perform PTA guided by portable digital subtraction angiography (DSA). No cerebrovascular events occurred during follow-up. Our approach avoids the risk of a second procedure while effectively treating tandem stenoses.

Recent clinical and experimental evidence indicates that coronary artery stenoses may rapidly change their size and shape in response to alterations in vasomotor tone and intraluminal pressure. This theoretical study models a partially compliant arterial stenosis to examine the hemodynamic impact of these alterations. In rigid vessels, a 98% reduction in luminal area would predictably produce subendocardial ischemia in the resting state. In contrast, stenoses, with part of the arterial wall normal by the underlying plaque, responded to vasoconstriction and to changes in intraluminal pressure.
