ABSTRACT We describe a novel variation of hybrid TPVR using tricuspid annuloplasty ring which can be considered for patients with very large RVOT, short pulmonary artery, and limited vascular access to avoid the risk cardiopulmonary bypass. The utilization Carpentier‐Edwards Physio Tricuspid reduce size RVOT at same time served as an effective docking site implantation SAPIEN S3 (Edwards Lifesciences). All three reported cases showed satisfactory immediate hemodynamic clinical outcomes well...
The optimal training of the highly specialized congenital heart surgeon is a long and complex process, which significant challenge in most parts world. World Society for Pediatric Congenital Heart Surgery (WSPCHS) has established Global Council on Education as nonprofit organization with goal assessing current certification ultimately establishing standardized criteria training, evaluation, surgeons around WSPCHS have reviewed present status cardiac surgery There currently lack consensus...
Although active infection is generally a contraindication before an orthotopic heart transplant, 16‐year‐old man diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy successfully underwent transplant despite having probable invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and bacterial pneumonia in the presence of septic cardiogenic shock.
Leucocytes have been shown to play a fundamental role in the pathophysiology of inflammation. This prospective, randomized, controlled study was designed identify most advantageous leucocyte depletion technique terms reduction systemic inflammatory response syndrome and myocardial ischaemia reperfusion injury associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Forty consecutive patients undergoing elective coronary artery graft (CABG) surgery were randomly allocated one four groups. The groups...
Abstract We evaluated early outcomes of transcatheter valve‐in‐valve (ViV) implantation in patients with degenerated bio‐prosthesis tricuspid position. Total 5 were included our case series. Baseline native valve etiology highly varied ranging from chest wall trauma, Ebstein anomaly, rheumatic heart disease, infective endocarditis and complex congenital disease. These differences also made patient comorbidities varied. Procedure details due to different clinical technical challenges. All...
Introduction: Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) is a lifesaving procedure for patients with refractory cardiac or respiratory failure. The indications ECMO are growing, and it increasingly being used to support cardiopulmonary failure in children. However, the risks benefits of should be weighed before deploying on patients. objectives this study were identify mortality risk factors determine outcomes. Methods: retrospective chart reviews done all aged 1 day-20 years old receiving...
Hydrops fetalis due to congenital complete heart block (CCHB) is a rare condition. The outcome of the preterm fetus with hydrops CCHB poor, and frequently associated significant morbidity mortality. management this condition difficult. We report our experience in hydropic using staged pacing by applying left ventricular epicardial temporary pacemaker subsequently, permanent pacemaker.
PurposeThe study sought to determine the rate of aortic expansion and correlation with somatic growth in patients repaired tetralogy Fallot (rTOF), predictors for determining annual aorta (Ao-AGR).MethodsNinety-four rTOF (mean age 14.5 ± 4.4 years) two cardiac magnetic resonance tests (CMR) (median duration 52 months, interquartile range, IQR 24–71) were analyzed diameter (AoD) at annulus, sinus Valsalva (SoV), sinotubular junction, ascending (AAo), compared normal limit AoD (NL-AoD) values....
Several important modifications have been introduced in the intraoperative management of neonates with hypoplastic left heart syndrome during first-stage palliation. Among these, utilization selective antegrade cerebral perfusion and interposition a conduit between right ventricle pulmonary artery are currently favored by many centers. We briefly describe our current approach to modified stage I Norwood procedure.
Pulmonary valve-sparing repair of tetralogy Fallot and double outlet right ventricle with pulmonary stenosis has the advantage reduced incidence late valve regurgitation better-preserved cardiac function. However, a ventriculotomy is sometimes necessary in order to adequately relieve subvalvular stenosis. We aimed compare postoperative function patients' symptoms between without ventriculotomy.
Objectives. Procalcitonin level is generally undetectable from blood sample under normal physiological condition. However, its production can be greatly stimulated by the presence of various inflammatory responses, especially those caused bacterial infection. We aimed to determine if postoperative procalcitonin could used predict infection more promptly than culture results. Materials and Methods. performed a retrospective case-control study collecting as well white cell patients undergoing...
Objectives A systemic-to-pulmonary shunt is the palliation of choice for many children with cyanotic congenital heart disease. However, significant morbidity and mortality related to these procedures postoperative course still exists. We aim report our outcomes shunts as well define certain risk factors adverse events. Materials Methods retrospectively collected data from electronic medical records Ramathibodi hospital January 01, 2013, April 30, 2024. Demographic data, operative, details...
Background: Empyema thoracic is a common surgical disease which increasing every year in worldwide especially developing countries. Surgical technique very challenging due to technical demanding and time consuming. The aim of this study compare outcomes between open thoracotomy (OT) video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) bacterial empyema based on Thailand experience. Methods: retrospective cohort from 6 tertiary-care hospitals was conducted. Patients were diagnosed with thoracis (BET)...
Anatomical lobectomy has always been the standard operative treatment of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. However, there have emerging evidences suggesting that a subanatomical resection, such as segmentectomy, may yield same results, even in patients with higher-stage This study aimed to compare overall 5-year survival rate and disease-free between segmentectomy cancer.The retrospective included 380 who underwent surgery for cancer at Ramathibodi Hospital 1st January 2016 31st...
Abstract Objectives Since the introduction of surgical implantation conduit for right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery pathway reconstruction, there has been a number studies on possible factors which might potentially affect longevity, as well patient’s reintervention-free and overall survival. Still, no definite consensual agreement could be made thus far. We aimed to compare survival, survival between patients with congenital heart diseases indicated operations involving reconstruction whose...
The Blalock-Taussig-Thomas shunt is one of the milestone procedures in cardiac surgery and a crucial operation for palliating blue babies. It currently impractical to train new surgeons on infants even under supervision their mentors. A realistic training model location, exposure, tissue toughness, texture required. objective this study was determine whether practical evaluate quality anastomosis performed by surgical trainees. Piglet heart lung models were selected from piglets 3 5 kg. Six...

IntroductionHeart transplantation is considered an important treatment option for advance heart failure patient who do not respond to medical therapy. However, before surgery, contraindications should be evaluated. These may include fixed pulmonary hypertension, active cancer, HIV infection, or infections with unstable conditions.(1)Infection a significant concern patients undergoing pre- and post-operative period, as it lead the risk of severe in these patients. In fact, are second leading...
