The article described a female patient with high-grade arterial hypertension diagnosed at her young age. Congenital abdominal aortic hyperplasia and conformity with criteria for Takayasu arteritis were diagnosed at 10 years following the clinical manifestation.

Background. Solid-pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas (SPT) is a very rare lesion. We presented the clinical and pathological characteristics of this tumor and reviewed the literature. Case report. We analyzed the treatment of the two female patients, aged 21 and 37 years, with this tumor. The first female patient had the tumor without involvement of the surrounding organs. The second female patient had the tumor with a high grade of malignancy which invaded blood vessels. We performed in both patients splenohemipancreatectomy, and then we reported the pathological characteristics of the tumors. We didn't find recidive in the observed postoperative follow-up of 4, and 6 years, respectively. Conclusion. SPT is a rare tumor of the pancreas that is diagnosed primarily in young women. The prognosis after surgical treatment was excellent. The histopathological analysis is the main procedure in establishing diagnosis, regardless the most recent diagnostic procedures.

Arterial hypertension (AH) is the main risk factor (RF) in the development of cardiovascular diseases worldwide. Almost 95% of patients have essential hypertension. In the structure of mortality from various cardiovascular diseases, including AH, 54% is myocardial infarction (MI). Currently, the widespread prevalence of AH and MI among the labor-capable population, early disability, reduced life expectancy, and low adherenceto treatment are of concern.Keywords: arterial hypertension, myocardial infarction, young age, risk factor

Purpose: To examine the effectiveness of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) for preoperative planning and intraoperative deployment of stent-grafts to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms. Methods: One hundred seventy patients (143 men; mean age 73.6±7.2 years, range 51–89) underwent successful DSA and IVUS to determine suitability for stent-graft repair. Patients subsequently received the AneuRx (n=157) or Ancure (n=13) device; intraprocedural IVUS was used to survey the proximal endograft for proper apposition to the aortic wall. Results: Reliable preoperative IVUS measurements were obtained in all patients. Plaque morphology was assessed in 140 (82.3%) aortic necks; in 36 (25.7%), preoperative IVUS showed high-grade atherosclerotic plaque in the nonaneurysmal abdominal aortic neck. The procedure was successful in 168 (98.8%) cases (1 [0.6%] acute conversion and 1 access failure). There were 2 (1.2%) periprocedural deaths related to bowel ischemia. Four (2.3%) patients developed graft occlusion/kinking and 2 (1.2%) developed renal failure requiring dialysis within 30 days. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that female gender (p=0.0247), a short nonaneurysmal aortic neck (p=0.0185), and presence of high-grade atherosclerotic plaque (p=0.0185) correlated with major acute complications. Over a mean 10.4-month follow-up (range 1–25), 11 patients died of unrelated causes; there was no known AAA rupture or device failure. The Kaplan-Meier estimate of survival at 1 year was 91.0%±2.8%. Sixteen (9.4%) patients underwent 17 secondary procedures for endoleak or graft limb occlusion at a mean 5.4 months after stent-graft repair (freedom from secondary intervention at 1 year 86.5%±3.2%). Conclusions: Our findings suggest that IVUS may identify patients at increased risk of major adverse complications following endovascular repair. The combination of IVUS and DSA for endoluminal stent-graft planning and placement provides excellent short- and mid-term patient outcomes.
