Abstract Aims The aim of this study was to evaluate whether neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet‐to‐lymphocyte (PLR) predict outcome in heart failure (HF) patients undergoing transplantation (HTX). Methods results Data from 111 HF HTX 2010–2015 were retrospectively reviewed. NLR PLR calculated before HTX, immediately after at 6 24 hours. Primary endpoint in‐hospital mortality, secondary endpoints 1 year mortality renal replacement therapy (RRT). Prognostic factors assessed by...
Introducción: La capacidad de ejercicio los pacientes con insuficiencia cardíaca avanzada mejora después del trasplante cardíaco (TXC). prueba cardiopulmonar (PECP) es reconocida como el estudio “estándar oro” para la evaluación aeróbico. El objetivo fue analizar las características PECP realizada en receptores TXC.Material y métodos: Se realizó un corte transversal. incluyeron mayores 18 años TXC desde 1 noviembre 2013 hasta 30 junio 2019, que hubieran realizado una dentro primer año...
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery (CS). Recently, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) was shown to predict AKI development earlier than serum creatinine, but it not widely used in clinical practice. Fractional excretion of urea (FeU) has been referred as useful tool discriminate between prerenal and established AKI. The aim our study evaluate the sensitivity specificity FeU, early diagnosis patients undergoing CS. Methods: We...
Objective:The objective of this study was to describe the clinical and imaging characteristics evolution heart transplantation patients due anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy Methods: Patients with a diagnosis ACM who received in our institution period November 2009-April 2021 were included.Clinical characteristics, pre-transplant studies, outcomes after collected retrospectively from electronic medical record.Results: A total 11 included study.The median age at time cancer 15 years (IQR...
Endovascular treatment of posttraumatic arteriovenous fistulae (AVFs) in the lower extremities by means covered stent-grafts is widely accepted, and many cases have been reported iliac-femoral region. However, few reports exist on infrapopliteal AVFs, with or without a pseudoaneurysm, using this method. The authors present case report dealing patient who had undergone tibial peroneal open fracture his left limb 34 years ago. He developed leg ulcer as consequence AVF between tibialis...
The clinical utility of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) has not been extensively studied yet in heart transplantation (HTX) patients.To analyze the predictive value CPET on hospitalizations and mortality HTX recipients.A retrospective cohort was performed from a secondary database. Patients > 18 years with who underwent between 3 12 months after were included. Time to first primary endpoint (HTX-related hospitalization) analyzed adjusted using Cox proportional hazards regression...
Introduction: Heart failure is the second most common cause of ascites after cirrhosis. There are cardiac and noncardiac etiologies ascites, multimodality imaging approach a rich tool to redefine final diagnosis. Case Presentation: We present case-series where 3 patients were referred our hospital for further hepatology assessment due severe abdominal liver failure. Constrictive pericarditis was diagnosed in all them. Nowadays, constrictive wellknown disease, but sometimes its clinical...
Abstract A 78-year-old man with a Kommerell diverticulum and aberrant right subclavian artery was admitted for thoracic pain severe malnutrition due to esophageal compression. We performed an atypical surgical procedure including extra-anatomical debranching direct aortic repair, trying avoid deep hypothermic circulatory arrest shorten the cardiopulmonary bypass time.

Introduction: Etiologic diagnosis in patients with end-stage cardiomyopathy can be challenging. A large number of remain undiagnosed despite a thorough evaluation, so they are classified as idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathies.Objectives: To describe the etiology heart transplant recipients according to pretransplant clinical and its degree agreement anatomopathological explanted heart.Methods: We performed retrospective analysis consecutively transplanted high complexity hospital Autonomous...
Open surgery is the elective treatment for mycotic aneurysms of aorta. This consists resection aneurysm, debridement and revascularization with an in situ or extra-anatomic bypass. Even when has been successful, morbi-mortality raised endovascular become alternative specific patients. When involved visceral arteries, more complex techniques are necessary such as fenestrated aortic repair chimmeny most frequent complications this endoleaks oclussion arteries. We present a case pacient...
Background The authors present two cases with type B aortic dissection initially treated by endovascular stent graft who developed complications posttreatment and required surgical treatment. Case Description A 50-year-old woman a 65-year-old man underwent treatment for thoracic aneurysm associated —both of them evolved endoleak 1. first case was related to aortobronchial fistula, the second one ascending aneurysm. An extra-anatomical aorta-supraceliac aorta bypass grafting decided due...
A 61-year-old male who lived for 30 years in a rural area presented chest pain of 3 months duration. Multiple hydatid cysts (Echinococcus granulosus) were diagnosed the pericardium and mediastinum by echocardiography computed tomography. The removed successfully with patient on cardiopulmonary bypass beating heart. This video tutorial shows how we cysts, using puncture-aspiration enucleation technique. Few videos this technique exist, believe that is helpful demonstration to handle...
It is not well established the prognostic value of elevated lactic acid after heart transplantation.To evaluate plasmatic pattern and lactate transplantation.One-hundred twenty seven patients were included between 2011 2014, 71 comprising transplantation group 56 control group, represented by on pump coronary artery by-pass surgery patients. Lactic levels compared groups before, within upon Coronary Care Unit admission, at 6, 12 24h. In addition, in univariate bivariate analysis performed...
