These vascular disorders can be repaired by endovascular approaches using angioplasty and stenting. Renal arterial ischemia can contribute to hypertension, which can be severe and refractory to medical therapy. Coronary artery disease involves the arteries supplying blood to heart muscle. Coronary ischemia results in myocardial infarction, also ...

The angioplasty uses the insertion of a balloon and/or stents to open up the artery. [1] Other surgeries performed are the more invasive bypass surgeries that graft arteries around blockages. If an MI is presented with ECG evidence of an ST elevation known as STEMI , or if a bundle branch block is similarly presented, then reperfusion therapy ...
Papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC) is a malignant, heterogeneous tumor originating from renal tubular epithelial cells of the kidney, which comprises approximately 10-15% of all kidney neoplasms. [1] Based on its morphological features, PRCC can be classified into two main subtypes, which are type 1 and type 2 (eosinophilic). [2]
Renal cell cancer and melanoma are generally considered to be radioresistant but radiation therapy is still a palliative option for many patients with metastatic melanoma. Combining radiation therapy with immunotherapy is an active area of investigation and has shown some promise for melanoma and other cancers.
