A new year is coming to an end and at SOLACI we are going over the most read studies on our website, on a vital topic, peripheral vascular disease.
Follow us to keep up to date.
Dr. Ana Paula Mollón (Arg.) presents “Common, Superficial and Deep Femoral Artery Recanalization”. This is the 6th clinical case presented by SOLACI Peripheral. The purpose of this space is to encourage and further the exchange of experiences and opinions, to keep advancing our knowledge in interventional cardiology.

03- Management of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms in 2021
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are those of >3 cm aortic diameter. They run the risk of rupture and ensuing death by bleeding. In consequence, they are treated to repair the aneurysm before it ruptures.

05- Contralateral Occluded Carotid Defines Revascularization Strategy
A significative lesion to the carotid artery in addition to contralateral carotid occlusion is an obvious factor of high risk for a revascularization procedure. However, this might be true for surgery but not for carotid artery stenting according to this recent publication in JACC.

06- Single or Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack?
Antiplatelet therapy is key to prevent thrombotic events after a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or ischemic stroke. The role of aspirin is well established in this scenario, but there is emerging evidence for a short period of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). Now, can this strategy avoid recurrent strokes without paying a price in terms of bleeding?

07- Diabetes and Peripheral Vascular Disease: Old Drugs, New Evidence
This paper, recently published in JAHA, showed that patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus exhibiting lower-limb vascular disease benefit from combining cilostazol and clopidogrel.

Dr. Daniel Zanuttini (Arg.) presents “Type Ib Endoleak Correction in Patient After Minimally Invasive Hybrid Treatment in Type A Aortic Disection”. This is the 8th clinical case presented by SOLACI Peripheral. The purpose of this space is to encourage and further the exchange of experiences and opinions, to keep advancing our knowledge in interventional cardiology.
