Depending on the findings, either the patient's veins or arteries (chest wall and brachial artery) or a combination [...] Department, we have extensive experience with the sole use of arteries to bypass diseased sections of the coronary arteries (total arterial revascularization).

Reopening of acute occlusions of the pelvic and leg arteries If there is an acute occlusion of the pelvic and leg arteries, the aim is to reopen them quickly. For this purpose, we have numerous

The pulmonary arteries can be traced with a high intra-arterial contrast and down to the smallest branches. Figure 4: Compared to the conventional representation of the pulmonary arteries (left image, red [...] therapy of inoperable CTEPH using pulmonary artery balloon angioplasty (BPA) Figure 1: Detection of tiny constrictions of the delicate pulmonary arteries in this patient with non-operable CTEPH (left [...] Pneumology Department. With the help of BPA, changes in the pulmonary arteries, which are localized in the smallest pulmonary arteries, can be passed through using a guide wire and then expanded with a balloon

narrowing of the pulmonary or aortic artery, anomalies in the course of the aorta, malformation of the coronary arteries). Anatomy Transposition of the great arteries occurs when there is an interchanged [...] Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) Clinical Department of Paediatric Cardiology and Paediatric Intensive Care Medicine Description Transposition of the great arteries or vessels (TGA) is one of [...] pulmonary and coronary arteries from the ventricles. The aorta does not originate from the left ventricle as in healthy hearts, but from the right ventricle, while the pulmonary artery originates from the

ventricle: the pulmonary artery valve (pulmonary valve). In several thousand patients in Germany, this valve does not work, so it has to be replaced by a replacement pulmonary artery valve. The replacement [...] AG pulmonary artery valve registry Clinical Department of Paediatric Cardiology and Paediatric Intensive Care Medicine Background to our research work The right ventricle of the human heart pumps deoxygenated [...] t pulmonary artery valves currently available wear out over time. They then become leaky or narrow. In growing children, they become too small and then no longer function well enough - after a few years

This involves creating a connection between a large arterial vessel and the pulmonary artery. With these measures, sufficient blood flow to the lungs can be achieved temporarily [...] tissue patch. Secondly, the narrowing of the pulmonary valve is repaired. If necessary, the pulmonary artery is widened with a piece of tissue (patch) and the narrowing of the legal outflow tract is repaired

Healthy liver tissue, on the other hand, receives most of its nutrients from the visceral vein [...] fact enables highly targeted chemotherapy: the minimally invasive injection of drugs via the hepatic artery. As a result, significantly higher concentrations of the chemotherapeutic agent are achieved in the [...] embolizate (liquid or particle) is added to the drug, which leads to a slowing of the flow in the arteries.

One way to treat the disease is to dilate the pulmonary arteries using small balloon catheters. [...] different access routes are chosen. For example, treatment of the vascular system is possible via the arteries or veins. By making a small puncture in easily accessible vessels, e.g. in the groin, the vessels
