AIM: This prospective study was designed to evaluate the changes in left ventricular (LV) systolic function after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients with both normal and abnormal pre-operative function.
 METHODS: During period from October 2017 2018, forty-seven consecutive undergoing CABG were enrolled this study. Transthoracic echocardiography performed within 1 week before as well 4 6 months surgery. All measurements made by a single experienced investigator.

Purpose: It is a well recognized fact that thromboembolic events are frequent in patients with congestive heart failure. Left atrial appendage (LAA) may be crucial source of thromboembolism dilated cardiomyopathy. The purpose this study was to identify clinical and echocardiographic predictors LAA thrombus sinus rhythm (SR) cardiomyopathy mild moderate systolic dysfunction. Methods: This prospective, cross-sectional conducted on 101 SR ischemic non-ischemic etiology at dysfunction, which...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of arrhythmia following open heart surgery and it contributes to prolonged hospital stay, increased prevalence thromboembolic complications overall postoperative morbidity mortality. The aim this prospective observational follow-up study was determine incidence atrial (POAF) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery, identify predisposing risk factors for its occurrence immediate preoperative period assess effect on outcome at...
Background and Objectives: The role of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on postoperative left ventricular (LV) function in patients with preoperatively preserved ejection fraction (LVEF) is still being discussed only a few studies address this question. This study aimed to assess LV after CABG LVEF using longitudinal strain assessed by 2D speckle tracking imaging (STI). Materials Methods: Fifty-nine consecutive adult disease (CAD) referred for first-time elective surgery were enrolled...
Background: Anatomical lung resection offers the best chance of cure for patients with localized cancer.Very often late diagnoses, advanced stage disease limit radical anatomical surgical resection.Use neoadjuvant chemotherapy made some cases operable, and later they were surgically treated.Aim: to evaluate early (surgical) complications at therapy. Material Methods:We compare 36 treated resection, before (3 6 cycles platinum based regiments under protocol) 42 without chemotherapy, in same...
Background ― Despite advances in surgical techniques, still tendency for waiting up to 6 weeks after myocardial infarction with ST segment elevation (STEMI). We aimed evaluate optimal timing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) stable patients STEMI. Material and Methods Prospective, randomised study consisted of 30 STEMI (age 57-78 years, 22 male) underwent on-pump CABG. According the CABG they were stratified as urgent (0-2 day) late group (3 day after). Transthoracic echocardiography...
Abstract Case presentation Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common and very heterogeneous genetic cardiac disease with a different clinical prognosis. The overall prevalence of estimated between 0.05-0.2% population. Left ventricular outflow obstruction at rest present in about 20% patients. Most patients have normal life expectancy, however high risk might develop heart failure, atrial fibrillation, arrhythmias sudden death. We case 47-year-old Caucasian man who was...
Introduction: Mechanical circulatory support by a continuous-flow ventricular assist device (VAD) improves survival and quality of life in selected patients with advanced heart failure. Developing countries have been struggling to construct contemporary effective health care system manage This observation represents the first annual report on clinical outcomes VAD for failure Republic North Macedonia. Methods: Data from all implantations between November 2018 December 2019 were collected....
Abstract Aneurysms of the thoracic aorta involving distal arch and proximal descending have traditionally been treated with two open procedures. During first stage, aortic pathology has addressed through a median sternotomy. Several weeks or months later, second stage followed included completing repair lateral thoracotomy. We, herein, report single an aneurysm using frozen elephant trunk operative technique. Vascular hybrid stent graft prosthesis, specifically designed for treatment...
It is considered a benign condition, but in some cases it carries risk for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. There no consensus regarding treatment strategy surgery recommended mitral valve dysfunction or thromboembolic
This study aims to determine and appraise the factors predicting likelihood of non-sentinel lymph node metastases in breast cancer patients, order avoid unnecessary axillary lymphadenectomy. A consecutive cohort ascertained 133 patients with a detected sentinel node, who met inclusion criteria: early (in T1, 2; N0 M0 stage), tumor size 5 cm or less clinically negative status. The were then divided into three groups, according SLN NSLN status (group 1 = -; group 2 +, 3 +; +). Number was n=98;...
Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), most commonly is provoked by the contact between hypertrophied basal interventricular septum (IVS) and systolic anterior motion (SAM) of leaflet mitral valve, during systole, thus narrowing left (LVOT).Several theories have been proposed to explain occurrence SAM LVOTO, "drag effect" theory widely accepted.Despite SAM, one others morphological features that can contribute LVOTO an insertion accessory...
