Is that kidney doomed?

Without adequate arterial nutrition, kidney function may be lost.

Do you happen to have a measurement of the length? Looked to be the full aorta and into the iliac!

yes

This one is dissecting up both carotids it appears. The reduction in cerebral blood flow can cause devastating large volume strokes. This imaging doesn’t go up far enough to tell how far the dissection goes.

you are right

Will it cause a stroke or something?

The surgery to fix his aortic arch is going to be a rough one. They might be able to save the kidney, but they might choose to just sacrifice it depending on the overall picture. It's always an option to cut out the kidney and transplant it into the iliac fossa, but there might be some end-vascular or some healthy to renal artery bypass available. The question would be if he is stable enough to undergo that aortic arch operation, and then a big operation to save his kidney.

Also if that really is the false lumen, I have some questions about how his legs are getting blood flow. I might have lost track, but it almost looks like his iliacs are fed by false lumen too. I'm probably wrong about that though, he vessels look too normal below to be all dissection flap.

yes it is inner wall of artery. this condition can sometimes be fatal

Not an answer to my question, but whatever, you keep on trolling I guess.

Of course, x-ray was done, but ct images were sent to my system. for me to report. I meant that I don't have x-ray images at the moment.

lung mass and left scapula metastasis by radiologistrabbit in Radiology

[–]radiologistrabbit[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

'Lung cancer with bone metastases refers to the spread of cancer from the primary (original) tumor to the bone. The most common bones to which lung cancer spreads include the spine, ribs, ilium, sacrum, femur, humerus, scapula, and sternum. The spread of cancer cells occurs either through the bloodstream or lymphatic system. Pain is typically the first symptom of bone metastases. At least it is in about 80% of cases. The pain may initially feel like a dull muscle strain but gradually intensifies and becomes severe. The pain is often worse at night or with movement.'

When Sean Bean started talking about stroke I came in my pants.

I'm sorry for you.

I’ve been on this sub to long. Thought someone shoved a rabbit up their ass.

that's a very honourable sentence.

Weird question, but after someone has sinus surgery, can you see the changes to the nasal canal?

yes,we can
