[Fibromuscular dysplastic aneurysm of the palm and microsurgical therapy]
Abstract:
Until now fibromuscular dysplasia has only been described in centrally located arteries. We found this disease in the arteries of the palm. Because of the progressive course and the increasing pain the disease had to be treated surgically. After the necessary resection of the fibromuscular dysplastic aneurysm the vessel system of the palm can only be reconstructed by microsurgical interposition of a vein graft.

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...
Aneurysm III: Interprofessional Care
Aneurysm management involves either conservative medical therapy or surgical intervention, depending on the size and symptoms of the aneurysm. Conservative management is generally reserved for smaller, asymptomatic aneurysms, while larger or symptomatic aneurysms often necessitate surgical repair.Conservative Medical TherapyFor small, asymptomatic aneurysms, particularly abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) less than 5.5 centimeters in diameter, conservative medical therapy is recommended. This...
