- Massive pulmonary embolism and an inability to receive tissue plasminogen activator. Large-bore pulmonary artery thrombectomy. Life saving single-session interventions. @davidsshin #Knight #OReilly @InariMedical @Thomas_TuMD #Shick #IRAD @UofWa_IR @UWRadiology
- Chronic total portal venous occlusive disease treated with transsplenic retrograde intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TRIPS) creation with intracardiac echocardiography-guided sharp recanalization. #IRAD @davidsshin @mabadsantos @Eric_Monroe_MD @UofWa_IR
- Lymphatic plastic bronchitis, or the expectoration or branching bronchial casts, was ongoing for three miserable years after seeing 17 specialists, but ended today thanks to #IRAD. Find an Interventional Radiologist for rare and complex lymphatic disorders. @UW @davidsshin #List
- IgA nephropathy and catheter-associated chronic superior vena cava (SVC) occlusive disease. Few things provide as much joy as restoring quality of life to a patient who has suffered for >3-years. #IRAD for all your venous needs. @davidsshin @mabadsantos @InariMedical @UofWa_IR
- Duplicated inferior vena cava, double filter removal, thrombectomy using the @PenVascular lightning CAT12, and caval reconstruction by #IRAD. @UWMedicine @UWRadiology @SIRRFS @SIR_ECS @JVIRmedia @penumbrainc @VenousNews @VeinForum @ajeyakumar12 @CVIR_Journal @medravi
- 6 hours, 5 accesses, 4 failed prior attempts, 3 IRADs, and 2 sharp recans for 1 patient. Superior vena cava reconstruction by Interventional Radiology. @davidsshin #Jones @JVIRmedia @SIRRFS @SIR_ECS @Philips @UW @UWRadiology @EVToday @VenousNews @CVIR_Journal @medravi
- 3 TIPS. 2 fellows. 1 day. TIPS is the treatment for esophageal variceal hemorrhage, ectopic varices, refractory ascites, hepatorenal syndrome, budd chiari, hepatic hydrothorax, and sinosoidal obstruction (among others). Interventional Radiology @UWRadiology @SIRRFS @SIR_ECS
- Inferior vena cava (IVC) filter-associated caval and bilateral iliocaval thrombosis treated in a single session with #FlowTriever and #ClotTriever. #IRAD @InariMedical @davidsshin @FredBertinoMD @UWRadiology @UofWa_IR @EVToday @VIVAPhysicians @SIRRFS
- Itโs a TRAP (transvenous retrograde antegrade portomesenteric embolization) for the treatment of complex gastroesophageal varices. There is much to be discovered about portal interventions. #IRAD @davidsshin @AaronDaubMD @mabadsantos @SIRRFS @UofWa_IR @EVToday
- Bedridden, debilitated, and despondent from filter-associated total venous thrombosis. Life reclaimed with #IRAD, @PenVascular Lightening โก๏ธ12 thrombectomy, and #Venovo venous reconstruction. #Venous @UWMedicine #OReilly #Jeyakumar @SIRRFS @SIR_ECS @VenousSymposium @VeinForum
- Transvenous balloon-occluded retrograde abdominal lymphangiography (BORAL) and embolization (BORALE) for the treatment of chylous ascites after colonic resection. Ideal for chylous collections below the diaphragm. #Lymphatics #IRAD @davidsshin @FredBertinoMD @medravi @UofWa_IR
- Extensive venous thrombosis treated with single-session thrombectomy and reconstruction. Interventional Radiology may help all your venous needs. CLOUT data suggests total thrombus removal in 76.5%. @davidsshin @ajeyakumar12 @FredBertinoMD @mabadsantos @InariMedical @UofWa_IR
- Venous claudication and an inability to use right upper extremity with three prior attempts at recanalization elsewhere. Proud day for patient and our team. Never give up. #IRAD @mabadsantos @davidsshin @UWRadiology @UWMedicine @SIRspecialists
