The aims of this study were to identify risk factors and evaluate the association with clinical outcomes postoperative cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI). Data from 2488 consecutive adult patients analyzed. Patients classified as having CSA-AKI based on risk, injury, failure, loss function, end-stage disease (RIFLE) criteria using peak creatinine in intensive care unit (ICU). Multiple stepwise logistic regression analysis was used independent for CSA-AKI. occurred 584...
The use of bilateral internal thoracic arteries (BITA) has been associated with improved long-term outcomes following coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. objective this study was to evaluate the impact BITA on survival among patients low ejection fraction (EF) undergoing CABG. Between April 1991 and October 2011, 2035 consecutive underwent primary grafting. Among them, there were 129 left ventricular EF ≤40%. During same time period, 1666 CABGs performed using a single (SITA) in A...
To evaluate early outcomes of endoscopic aortic valve replacement (AVR) and risks concomitant procedures done through the same working port.At our institution, we performed a data analysis 342 consecutive patients (from July 2013 to May 2021) who underwent AVR with or without associated major procedure. Preoperative, intraoperative, postoperative were evaluated. Subsequently, perform comparative between isolated surgery group. The surgical access was 3- 4-cm port in second right intercostal...
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is an essential component of cardiac surgery, with still unknown device/patient interactions. To evaluate the response CPB to hemodynamic, biochemical, inflammatory, as well thermo-pharmacodynamic interactions, a novel miniaturized oxygenator controlled and standardized specifications has been developed together improved surgical central cannulation technique. A hollow-fiber small priming volume (6.3 ml) was manufactured according resulting from engineering,...
The Amplatzer Septal Occluder for transcatheter closure of interatrial communications is a standard procedure and widely accepted alternative to surgery in most patients with atrial septal defect (ASD). Device dislocation or embolization has been reported as one the commonest complications ASD percutaneous closure. In this case, if removal not possible, it requires surgical therapy, usually through median sternotomy. We report on case 30-year-old woman, who underwent an ostium secundum ASD....
Late results after stentless aortic valve replacement (AVR) may be jeopardized by progressive dilatation. To define functional outcome using the intact non-coronary sinus technique, all patients operated Edwards Prima Plus xenograft were assessed.Between January 2000 and August 2007, 154 patients, aged 71 +/- 9 years, underwent AVR a which replaces stabilizes two of three commissures. Indication was stenosis (AS) in 103 (67%) patients: 33 (21%) had bicuspid four endocarditis. Ninety-six...
Background and Aim: From EACTS guidelines, TAVI is preferred treatment choice in specific population’s characteristic, age the major factor favour. Study’s aim to evaluate if Totally Endoscopic Aortic Valve Surgery (EAVS) has satisfactory early results TAVI-Age population Methods: We performed a retrospective, single-center study of all patients undergone EAVS from April 2014 August 2024. Inclusion criteria were > 18 y.o., totally endoscopic approach, AV surgery with or without...
The management of the left subclavian artery (LSA) revascularization during aortic arch surgery is controversial and often challenging, especially an emergency life-saving procedure. We report on a case 64-year old man, admitted to our institution with Type A acute dissection who underwent frozen elephant trunk procedure debranching supra-aortic vessels completed LSA using in situ internal mammary artery.
Minimally invasive cardiac surgery has increased in popularity to reduce the morbidity associated with open heart surgery. In this article, a totally endoscopic case series is presented which anterior pericardiectomy performed by peripheral femoral arterial and venous cannulation. Right periareoal incision right submammary were used for male female patients, respectively, access fourth intercostal space.
The aim of this study was to examine the incidence and predictors stroke after minimally invasive mitral valve surgery (mini-MVS) assess role preoperative CT scan on surgical management neurological outcomes in large cohort Mini-Mitral International Registry.Clinical, operative in-hospital patients undergoing mini-MVS between 2015 2021 were collected. Univariable multivariable analyses used identify stroke. Finally, impact assessed.Data from 7343 1.3% (n = 95/7343). Stroke associated with...
Objectives: Overall, the use of bilateral internal thoracic arteries (BITA) seems to be associated with improved long-term patient outcomes. The objective this study was explore impact BITA in survival patients low ejection fraction undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Methods: Between April 1991 and October 2011, 2035 consecutive underwent primary grafting. Among them, there were 134 an (EF) 40% or less. During same time period, 1682 CABG procedures performed using a...
Abstract Objective Obesity is a relative contraindication to Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery because of its technical challenges. Aim the study evaluate if totally endoscopic approach feasible in treating heart valve’s pathology obese patients and 30–days outcomes complications are non–inferior non–obese patients. Methods From January 2018 June 2022, 1544 consecutive unselected underwent valve treatment at our institution. Treated valves were aortic, mitral, tricuspid various combination....
