To present total phalloplasty in children and adults using a musculocutaneous latissimus dorsi (MLD) free flap to create large neophallus, that allows easy urethroplasty implantation of prosthesis.From April 1999 January 2006, 16 patients (mean age 24 years, range 10-34) had phalloplasty; the indications were congenital anomalies penis 12, iatrogenic two accidental penile trauma two. The MLD is mobilized on subscapular artery vein, thoracodorsal nerve. neophallus created on-site after...
This study compared the anti-inflammatory effects of methylprednisolone (MP) and atorvastatin analysed their influences on clinical variables in patients undergoing coronary revascularization.Ninety with compromised left ventricular ejection fraction (≤30%) elective surgery were equally randomized to one three groups: statin group, treatment (20 mg/day) 3 weeks before surgery; a single shot methylpredniosolone (10mg/kg); control group.Postoperative IL-6 was higher group when groups (p<0.01)....
Coronary artery by-pass grafting (CABG) with arterial grafts is widely accepted as the procedure of choice in treatment coronary ischemic disease. It brings back focus on morphological studies arteries used conduits this procedure. One most frequently CABG internal thoracic an excellent graft prognosis and patency rate. The aim study was a detailed morphometric description emphasis its basic histological structure changes aging atherosclerosis. Therefore, 42 full-length were obtained during...
Background and Aims The purpose of this prospective randomized study was to compare the early midterm outcomes aortic valve replacement (AVR) through upper ministernotomy with conventional AVR median sternotomy. Methods One hundred patients undergoing elective were into two groups: M group (upper group, n = 50) C (conventional sternotomy 50). operative data, major adverse outcomes, postoperative variables compared between groups patients. A cross-sectional follow-up performed 24.9 ± 5.8...
The optimal treatment strategy for patients with severe carotid artery disease undergoing coronary bypass grafting is still problematic. important question whether it necessary to treat significant in who have undergone grafting. This study analyzed short- and midterm results after same-day stenting grafting.From 2013 2020, a total of 69 were enrolled the study. Same-day performed all patients. study's primary end points evaluation rate stroke, myocardial infarction, death within periods...
Cor triatriatum dexter is a rare congenital heart anomaly in which membrane divides the right atrium into 2 chambers. We report case of 43-year-old woman who had cor and large atrial septal defect. During attempted percutaneous closure, balloon disrupted revealed that defect no inferior rim, precluding secure placement an Amplatzer Septal Occluder. Surgical treatment subsequently proved to be successful. In patients with incomplete well-defined rims, can first choice. have unfavorable...
Objective Surgical closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is still required in selected adult patients. We analyzed the morphology anomaly and coexisting pathological findings patients who were recently referred to our institute for surgical PDA repair. Patients Interventions Six not considered candidates percutaneous underwent correction. In three with isolated PDA, computed tomographic scan revealed short, wide, distorted ductus. remainder patients, concomitant heart or aortic disease...
Abstract The anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary is a rare congenital disease. Early surgical reconstruction mandatory to prevent adverse cardiac events. Direct button transfer, vein graft interposition, ligation, and bypass construction are most commonly used techniques. This case report presents modified technique of Dacron interposition reimplantation on ascending aorta.
We investigated the impact of preoperative ultrasonography forearm circulation on radial artery conduit selection. Preoperative ultrasound was performed routinely in 536 patients planned for harvesting. The safety assessment harvest included following algorithm tests: ultrasound, Allen test, and pulse oximetry. quality criteria that were used to exclude a from harvesting small size artery, diffuse atherosclerosis, calcifications, severe neointimal hyperplasia. overall rejection rate due...
The revascularisation strategy for concomitant carotid and coronary disease is unknown. Simultaneous or stage artery stenting endarterectomy are the most common approach in CABG population. This study aimed to evaluate long-term results after simultaneous patients who underwent bypass surgery.This a prospective cohort non-randomised single-institution study. During period from 2012 2015, sixty consecutive (65.9 ± 7.41 mean) surgery (n = 30) 30). primary endpoints were short- rates of adverse...
Abstract Aims Most devices for treating ambulatory Class II and III heart failure are linked to electrical pulses. However, a steady electric potential gradient is also necessary appropriate myocardial performance may be disturbed by structural diseases. We investigated whether chronic application of microcurrent the feasible safe improves cardiac performance. The results this study should provide guidance design two‐arm, randomized, controlled Phase trial. Methods This single‐arm,...
Cardiac surgeons are treating an increasing number of patients after different sorts complications occurring during various percutaneous procedures. Wire entrapment has been described in the literature and numerous maneuvers have developed to solve this complication. If they fail, surgical management is absolutely indicated. In such cases operation can be very demanding. After hardware removal artery quality usually unsatisfactory endarterectomy with adjacent revascularization mandatory. We...
Objectives: The aim of the study was to investigate usefulness transapical cannulation as routine site in patients with acute aortic dissection and compare it other methods. Methods: Between January 2010 December 2013, emergency surgery performed 111 consecutive type A dissection. Patients were divided into two groups: group sites (including femoral axillary artery cannulation). Pre-, intra- postoperative data compared between these groups patients. Results: Transapical most frequent (78...
Patients on dialysis for end-stage renal failure are subjected to cardiac surgery with increasing frequency. End-stage is known be an important risk factor complications of operations performed cardiopulmonary bypass. The aim this study was determine the impact preoperative clinical status and operative variables perioperative morbidity mortality in hemodialysis-dependent patients a surgery.The following were examined: urgency, type duration extracorporeal circulation. retrospective analysis...
Cardiac device-related endocarditis has emerged as a serious complication in the era of advanced medical technology. Pacemaker related infections are rare and life-threatening with incidence from 0.06% to 7% high mortality rate (30-35%). Diagnosis is hard, frequently delayed could be even missed due poor clinical findings. The average delay diagnosis 5.5 month. We report case late-onset pacemaker lead caused by S. epidermidis successfully treated open heart surgery.Patient persistent fever...
Technical improvement and new operative strategies significantly influence survival outcomes after the treatment of acute aortic dissection type A (AADA). However, postoperative complications particularly neurological dysfunctions (ND) are still very common.To identify preoperative intraoperative factors as well immediate conditions with an on occurrence surgical AADA accordingly take action to reduce them.Between January 2013 December 2018, 240 patients were emergently surgically treated....
