    查看更多>>摘要:With the widespread adoption of ultrasound guidance,Seldinger puncture techniques,and intracardiac electrical positioning technology for the placement of peripherally inserted central catheters in recent years,an increasing number of medical staff and patients now accept peripheral placement of totally implantable venous access de-vices(TIVADs)in the upper arm.This approach has the advantage of completely avoiding the risks of hemo-thorax,pneumothorax,and neck and chest scarring.Medical specialties presently engaged in this study in China include internal medicine,surgery,anesthesiology,and interventional departments.However,command over implantation techniques,treatment of complications,and proper use and maintenance of TIVAD remain uneven among different medical units.Moreover,currently,there are no established quality control standards for im-plantation techniques or specifications for handling complications.Thus,this expert consensus is proposed to improve the success rate of TIVAD implantation via the upper-arm approach,reduce complication rates,and ensure patient safety.This consensus elaborates on the technical indications and contraindications,procedures and technical points,treatment of complications,and the use and maintenance of upper-arm TIVAD,thus providing a practical reference for medical staff.

    查看更多>>摘要:Primary liver cancer is a common and lethal malignancy in China.Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)is globally recognized as the preferred treatment modality for the non-surgical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),while transcatheter arterial infusion(TAI)is another effective interventional treatment for HCC.In recent years,hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy(HAIC)has gained increasing attention as an application-regulated modality for TAI.Owing to the current debate in the medical community regarding the use of HAIC and TACE for the treatment of HCC,the application of both approaches should be considered at a higher level,with a broader perspective and a more normative aspect.Accordingly,we aimed to define the rational combination of liver cancer TAI/HAIC with TACE as infusion transcatheter chemoembolization(iTACE),which suggests that the two interventions are not superior but lead to a mutually beneficial situation.In this review,we sought to discuss the development,specification,application,challenge and innovation,debate,and union of TAI/HAIC and TACE,and the clinical application and latest research on iTACE.We aimed to introduce new concepts of iTACE and expect new breakthroughs in the treatment of liver cancer owing to the combined use of the two major interventional tools.

    查看更多>>摘要:Budd-Chiari syndrome(BCS)is a rare condition characterized by hepatic venous outflow obstruction.Balloon angioplasty,with or without stenting,is the recommended first-line treatment modality in Asian countries.As a supplement to balloon angioplasty,expandable metallic Z-stent deployment can effectively improve long-term inferior vena cava(IVC)patency.Although stent placement is a standard and frequently performed treatment,very few IVC stent-related complications,such as stent fractures,have been reported.Here we present a case series and a comprehensive review of IVC stent fractures in patients with BCS.The most common characteristic of IVC stent fractures is a protrusion of the proximal segment of the IVC stent into the right atrium and its systolic and diastolic movements along with heart rhythms.Accurate stent deployment,large-diameter balloon dilation,patient breath-holding training,preferential selection of a triple stent,and the use of an internal jugular vein approach to stent deployment may ensure precise stent localization and avoid postoperative complications.
