We retrospectively analysed our 20-year experience on surgical treatment of native mitral valve (MV) endocarditis in a single institution using an early and repair-oriented approach.From August 1991 to December 2015, 192 consecutive patients underwent MV surgery for active endocarditis. Of these, 81% (n = 155) had repair while 19% replacement. In-hospital late outcomes were the 2 groups subgroups with without use patch. Study end points overall survival, reoperation valve-related events. The...
Mitral valve (MV) repair is the gold standard for treatment of degenerative mitral regurgitation. A variety surgical techniques allow surgeons to achieve a high rate MV even with diseases other aetiologies. However, certain number repairs fail over time. The aim this study was review our single-centre experience re-repair and analyse mode failure, safety efficiency in relation initial aetiology.Between 1997 2015, 91 patients underwent redo re-repair. first performed institution 59% cases....
To test the efficacy of antegrade scrotal sclerotherapy (ASS) for treatment varicocele in teenagers.The study included 38 patients (mean age 14.9 years, range 12-18) with left-sided varicocele. Three had a grade 1 varicocele, 22 were 2 and 13 3. ASS was performed under local anaesthesia on an out-patient basis.ASS accepted by all except one. There no peri-operative problems only one patient developed post-operative epididymitis. During 9 to 15 months follow-up 11 months), two persistence...
