“…Secondly, a single center experience may suffer pros and cons of a multidisciplinary care protocol, not fully implemented in every hospital. Many studies stressed the relevance of surgeon's custom and familiarity with diagnostic protocols and modern technologies, especially during the follow-up and graft recue [27][28][29][30]. Finally, we considered a single-surgeon experience with a single graft.…”

Aim: In the present study, we analysed the learning curve of prosthetic vascular access creation. Materials and methods: The first 50 consecutive prosthetic vascular access created by a single experienced vascular surgeon was included in this study. Primary outcomes were operative time, intervention-free access survival and functional access survival. Additional outcomes were complications of the intervention. We used the cumulative sum technique to assess the learning curve. Results: The analysis of the learning curve obtained with cumulative sum technique on operative time, interventionfree survival and functional access survival permitted to define three phases: learning (first 25 patients), expertise (following 15 patients) and post-learning phase. Accordingly, statistical differences were observed in operative time, intervention-free survival, and frequencies of graft thrombosis among the three groups. Conclusion: Prosthetic vascular access creation is a safe and effective intervention when performed by an experienced vascular surgeon. Otherwise, a twenty-five interventions learning curve is mandatory to obtain better results in terms of operative time, circuit survival and frequency of thrombosis. Additional fifteen interventions are required to obtain an expert level of practice, allowing for more challenging procedure.

“…This technique is a reliable tool for the evaluation of the feeding arteries, the nidus and draining veins of arteriovenous malformations of the head & neck [28,29]. Combined with basic sequences, TWIST using the blood pool contrast agent gadofosveset trisodium may achieve the highest accuracy with complete anatomical characterization of infantile hemangioma and lymphatic and venous malformation [30].…”

ZUSAMMENFASSUNGHintergrund Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ist ein essentielles bildgebendes Verfahren für die Beurteilung von Kopf-Hals Erkrankungen. Die diagnostische Aussagekraft der MRI ist jedoch stark von der entsprechenden Auswahl und Interpretation der Protokolle und Sequenzen abhängig. Das Ziel dieses Beitrags ist es, State-of-the-art-Sequenzen für die klinische Routine der Kopf-Hals-MRI zusammenzufassen und die Evidenz zu beschreiben, für welche medizinische Fragestellungen diese Sequenzen nützlich sind.Methode Literaturübersicht von State-of-the-art-Sequences in der Kopf-Hals-MRI.

“…On MR imaging, it appears as multiple signal voids which represent dilated tortuous hypertrophied vascular structures [15,25]. Time resolved imaging of contrast kinetics (TRICKS) MRA better delineates the arterial feeder, venous drainage, and nidus of high flow arterial vascular malformations [34]. Dermoid and epidermoid…”

We aim to review the normal anatomy and imaging appearance of masticator space lesions. Because the masticator space is not amenable to direct examination, cross-sectional imaging with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging play an important role in diagnosis and characterization of lesions occurring there. Masticator space lesions can be classified on the basis of their origin into the following categories: inflammatory lesions, benign tumors, malignant tumors, vascular lesions, and developmental lesions. A diverse spectrum of malignant tumors and benign lesions are seen extending from the adjacent spaces. In addition, one should also be familiar with pseudolesions as well as post-treatment changes in the masticator space that can be mistaken for pathologic conditions.
