Pulmonary Embolism II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

152
Diagnosing Pulmonary EmbolismDiagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE) involves clinical assessment and advanced imaging tests. The preferred diagnostic tool is the spiral (helical) CT scan or CT angiography (CTA), which uses intravenous contrast media to visualize the pulmonary vasculature and identify emboli.A ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is an alternative for patients unable to receive contrast media. This scan includes both perfusion and ventilation scanning. Perfusion scanning involves...

Area of Science:

  • Interventional Neuroradiology
  • Vascular Surgery
  • Cardiovascular Medicine

Background:

  • Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is a common procedure to treat carotid artery stenosis.
  • Embolic protection devices (EPDs) are used during CAS to prevent stroke.
  • Difficult EPD retrieval can occur due to anatomical and procedural factors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel rescue technique for difficult EPD retrieval after CAS.
  • To address challenges arising from under-expanded stent struts and calcified plaque.

Main Methods:

  • A technical report detailing a specific case of CAS.
  • Description of a novel rescue maneuver to overcome EPD retrieval difficulties.
  • Focus on managing an under-expanded stent strut against calcified plaque.

Main Results:

  • Successful retrieval of the EPD was achieved using the novel technique.
  • The patient tolerated the procedure without immediate complications.

Conclusions:

  • A novel rescue technique can effectively manage difficult EPD retrieval after CAS.
  • This technique is valuable in complex cases involving calcified plaque and stent deployment issues.
