    Abstract Adjunct internal iliac artery (IIA) procedures, such as preoperative embolisation or coverage with iliac branch extensions, are not infrequent in the context of endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Moreover, on many occasions, these procedures are performed in a multi-stage approach by interventional radiologists prior to the main operation. Bearing in mind the potential complications of IIA occlusion when revascularization is not initially deemed necessary, various issues arise spanning from appropriate patient counselling to medicolegal consequences. Herein, we aim to provide a roadmap regarding appropriate patient consenting, highlighting the need for multidisciplinary approach of these patients.

    Abstract Introduction: Percutaneous cholecystostomies are not infrequently used as an adjunct in the treatment of severe lithiasic cholecystitis, particularly in unstable and comorbid patients. However, their out of proportion liberal use tends to substitute the performance of emergency cholecystectomy, which the definitive treatment.

    Aim: Our aim was to assess the short and long-term outcomes of patients who had percutaneous cholecystostomy insertion due to severe lithiasic cholecystitis, aiming to define areas for improvement of our institutional practice.

    Materials and Methods: Retrospective review of our institutional practice including all patients who had a percutaneous cholecystostomy for complex lithiasic cholecystitis, over a 5-year period, allowing for an additional 1-year follow up.

    Results: A total of 34 patients were included in our final analysis. Percutaneous cholecystostomy insertion enabled quick and efficient control of the source of biliary sepsis without major procedural complications in all cases. In 14 (41.2%) patients, cholecystostomy alone served as definitive treatment, while in 20 (58.9%) cases it was used as bridging strategy for delayed elective cholecystectomy. In the delayed cholecystectomy group of patients, we noted a high conversion rate from laparoscopic to open surgery rate of 70%, with an overall subtotal cholecystectomy rate of 60%.

    Conclusion: Percutaneous cholecystostomies should be reserved only for complex lithiasic cholecystitis patients who are unwilling and/or unfit for surgery. We advocate the performance of upfront emergency cholecystectomy in any other case with liberal use of operative bail-out strategies, as a delayed elective operation is anyway likely to be converted to open and/or subtotal cholecystectomy.

    Abstract Introduction: Superficial vein thrombosis of the lower limbs is a common condition encountered by a wide spectrum of clinical specialties. In contrast to deep vein thrombosis of the lower limbs though, there is significant variability in terms of its treatment with respect to the type and duration of pharmacotherapy, as well as regarding the potential role of operative management.
    Methods: Systematic review of the literature in a best evidence topic manner, including only prospective and randomized controlled studies on the treatment of lower limb SVT, focusing on the emerged data over the last 5 years.
    Results: A total of 17 prospective observational and randomized clinical studies met our set criteria. Despite the major differences in study designs, outcomes and intervention types, upfront pharmaceutical treatment with fondaparinux or intermediate dose of low molecular weight heparins, combined with regular clinical and radiological follow-up, seem to be effective and safe as first-line approaches. Upfront surgical treatment of lower limb SVT can also be safely performed in selected cases in the presence of clinical expertise.
    Conclusions: Our review revealed the presence of considerable variability in the therapeutic options of the lower limb superficial venous thrombosis, highlighting the need for further randomized controlled trials in the field in order to establish and standardize its optimal treatment.
