Abstract OBJECTIVES Conventional treatment for type A aortic dissection includes replacement of the ascending aorta with an open distal anastomosis in hemiarch position. The frozen elephant trunk (FET) is a hybrid technique that extends repair to descending thoracic aorta. goal improve resolution malperfusion syndrome and induce positive remodelling reduce need reintervention on downstream We aim summarize data short long-term outcomes this technique. METHODS thorough search literature was...
Abstract OBJECTIVES Infective endocarditis (IE) with intervalvular fibrosa (IVF) involvement is a life-threatening condition. Fibrous skeleton reconstructive options encompass variants of the Commando operation dictated by surgical findings. We aim to review characteristics and outcomes patients undergoing different iterations this operation. METHODS Retrospective analysis who underwent IVF reconstruction in setting acute IE at two national referral centres from April 2014 November 2023....
The goal of this study was to analyse early- and long-term outcomes aortic valve reimplantation (David operation) in patients with heritable thoracic disease.This is a retrospective observational analysis using data from prospectively maintained surgical database March 2004 April 2021. Patients disease were included the study.A total 157 root aneurysm diagnosis received David procedure. Marfan syndrome found 143 (91.1%) patients, Loeys-Dietz 13 Ehler-Danlos 1 patient. median age 35.0 (IQR:...
Abstract OBJECTIVES Extended septal myectomy and alcohol ablation are 2 invasive treatments for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Our goal was to compare which of these techniques achieved a higher reduction in gradients, improvement New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class medical treatment. METHODS It is single-centre observational retrospective analysis. We used multivariable regression analyses assess the association ablation/myectomy with different outcomes. The odds...
Abstract OBJECTIVES Our goal was to define characteristic patterns of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose in non-infected patients with ascending aortic prosthetic grafts during the first year after surgery. METHODS positron emission tomography (PET)/computed (CT) performed at 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively 26 uninfected patients. Clinical, analytical microbiological (blood culture) assessments were confirm absence infection. FDG uptake intensity [measured through maximum standardized values (SUVmax)...
The use of cardioplegia solutions as a myocardial protection technique is essential during cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. del Nido solution (DNS) has been widely used preservation for pediatric patients undergoing Its unique pharmacological features have created growing interest adult surgery, especially elderly or those ventricular dysfunction who are more prone to ischemia-reperfusion injury. Ever since its implementation, several retrospective studies published validate the...
Left atrial appendage occlusion has become an alternative for long-term anticoagulation patients with non-valvular fibrillation. Although the procedure is safe, life-threatening complications such as embolization of device or cardiac tamponade might occur. We present a case LAmbre that migrated 4 days after being implanted and remained trapped in mitral valve. Secondary massive regurgitation severe stenosis haemodynamic instability required emergency surgery. The was successfully removed,...
Abstract Introduction Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) stands as an effective treatment option for symptomatic severe stenosis, applicable across all surgical risk spectrum. Registries show that up to 60% of these patients exhibit at least one marker frailty. Frailty has been associated with higher 1-year mortality rates and heightened susceptibility complications. Conservative treatment, however, a poor prognosis, ranging from 30-60% within year after diagnosis. Objective The...
La donación en asistolia controlada se ha convertido una de las principales estrategias para aumentar el número donantes. Hasta momento corazón este tipo donantes no era valorado por riesgo lesión isquémica durante la limitación del soporte vital. En los últimos años, con sistemas perfusión ex situ iniciaron programas cardiaca que demostraron viabilidad miocárdica. El uso regional normotérmica nuestro medio y experiencia otros países recuperación nos lleva a elaborar un protocolo extracción...
Cardiac paragangliomas are extremely rare. Sometimes surgical resection is a challenge owing to the proximity of vital structures and coronary arteries involvement. We report case 34-year-old man with cardiac located between right atrium ventricle feeding blood supply from collaterals artery. In this case, we implanted covered single stent (PK Papyrus®) in artery objective embolizing collateral branches reinforce wall. Although tumour mass was not reduced, vascularization minimized, hybrid...
Pigmented villonodular synovitis (SNVP) is a benign but locally aggressive disease of synovial proliferation that can occur in all joints, tendon sheaths and bursae, with predilection for the knee. The etiology PVNS remains unclear. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) best diagnostic method to establish suspected SNVP, although biopsy gold standard diagnosis. Initial treatment based on synovectomy, open or arthroscopic. After surgery, there high rate recurrence.1 Radioisotope synoviotrosis as...
Abstract Background/Introduction Previous studies using conventional echocardiographic measurements have reported subclinical left diastolic dysfunction in patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS). Left atrial strain (LAS) has been shown to be an accurate predictor of ventricular dysfunction. However, there is no evidence regarding the use LAS MFS. Purpose To assess feasibility and compare derived along traditional parameters MFS vs healthy controls. Methods 46 (normal LV ejection fraction,...
