[Floating clot in the suprarenal inferior vena cava. Surgical extraction without extracorporeal circulation]
Abstract:
A new technique for extracting floating clots from the suprarenal segment of the inferior vena cava is presented in which the vein is obliterated by a Fogarty catheter, thus preventing the risk of embolism by migration of the clot. This simple technique avoids both the mixed thoracic and abdominal approach and the use of cardiopulmonary bypass.

Extracorporeal Removal of Drugs: Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy
Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) is an essential intervention for patients experiencing severe kidney dysfunction. This therapy offers a continuous mechanism for removing fluids and toxins from the bloodstream, leveraging the patient’s blood pressure to facilitate filtration through a specialized filter. This method contrasts with intermittent dialysis, providing a gentler and more consistent removal of waste products and excess fluid, which is particularly beneficial in critically...
