Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is the treatment of choice for patients with chronic thrombo-embolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). The aim this study was to review our initial experience since implementation program. Data were collected prospectively on all who underwent PEA between March 2011 and 2012. Forty-nine (20 male, 29 female, mean age 47.7 years) surgery. preoperative New York Heart Association class distribution showed majority be in III or IV (n = 40). Mortality rate 14.2% 7)...
Background Pectus excavatum is the most common chest wall deformity. This deformity may cause physical limitations and psychosocial problems. In this study, we aimed to investigate effect of minimally invasive repair pectus on quality life. Methods study included 88 patients, aged 18.44 ± 3.93 years (85.2% male), who underwent excavatum; 40.9% had an associated anomaly or disease, 17.0% scoliosis. The patients their parents completed patient parent forms Nuss questionnaire modified for...
Abstract Background Lung cancer is associated with the greatest mortality as it typically presents incurable distributed disease. Biomarkers relevant to risk assessment for detection of lung continue be a challenge because they are often not detectable during asymptomatic curable stage A solution population-scale testing will require combination performance, scalability, cost-effectiveness, and simplicity. Methods One measure activity serum available enzymes that contribute transformation...
Several studies previously demonstrated an improvement in the quality of life (QoL) patients undergoing a minimally invasive repair pectus excavatum, but there are no data about such following carinatum (PC) deformity. The purpose this study was to investigate effects PC deformity on psychosocial and physical functioning patients.Among 40 who underwent for from July 2008 March 2011, 35 accepted answer QoL questionnaires, 30 them had completed postoperative 6th month were evaluated study....
Minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum, the so-called Nuss procedure, has become a popular technique in recent years. The internal mammary arteries (IMAs) lie on posterolateral surface sternum, and bar is likely to obstruct blood flow these arteries. This obstruction could important later stages lives young people if they were require coronary artery bypass grafting. goal this study investigate extent IMAs caused by bars. Data collected prospectively all patients who underwent...
The aim of this study is to present our experience with Nuss bar removal and evaluate potential risk factors. procedure requires an operation remove the 2-3 years after initial correction. Although generally believed be safe, perioperative complications including major bleeding can occur.All cases involving done since April 2007 were recorded in a prospective database. Data collected on amount blood loss, number diagnostic interventions, operative management postoperative course.Of total 246...
Background: Pectus excavatum (PE) is the most common chest wall deformity.The Nuss Questionnaire modified for Adults (NQmA) a disease-specific health-related quality of life assessment tool patients with pectus deformities.The aim this study to adapt NQmA into Turkish.Methods: Two hundred and sixty-five PE were participated, an age range 14 29 years.All underwent physical examination had not undergone corrective surgery.The Turkish version was completed by their parents.Results: The content...
BackgroundThe cross-bar technique of minimally invasive pectus excavatum (PE) correction remains underreported, which is especially true pediatric patients. We therefore reviewed the experience a Turkish and an Austrian center. An additional novelty characterizing both cohorts was use short bars.MethodsIn retrospective study, PE corrections involving 'short bars crossed' were analyzed for complications intra-/postoperative outcomes. Cases with two or three included, given that horizontal...
<b>Background</b> Nuss procedure has become the of choice for well-selected patients with pectus excavatum. Perioperative complications may pose difficulty during subsequent bar removal due to adhesions and tissue plane disruptions initial surgery repair. This report describes experience in whose procedures were complicated by cardiac injury, pericardial breach, lung parenchyma/diaphragm injury procedure. <b>Methods</b> A total 529 who underwent between 2007 2014 recorded a prospective...
Invasive aspergillosis is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients. Among primary immunodefiencies, chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) has the highest prevalence invasive fungal diseases. Voriconazole recommended for treatment most In patients whose refractory to voriconazole, therapeutic options include changing class antifungal, example using amphotericin B formulation, echinocandin, combination therapy, or further use azoles. Posaconazole a triazole...
Sternal cleft is a rare chest wall deformity. It can be diagnosed in the intrauterine stage with ultrasonography. Newborn period optimal time for surgical correction of sternal cleft, due to elasticity sternum and minimal compression underlying structures. Here we reported newborn patient which has been operated 5 days after labor. Good outcome long-term results were accomplished.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is still an ongoing entity and every day we face new sequalae of the disease. We hereby present surgical results patients who are treated for post-COVID chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.Data were collected among underwent endarterectomy had a diagnosis hypertension. All data retrospectively reviewed from prospectively conducted database. Operative mortality was described as death in hospital or within 30 days surgery.Eleven (seven males, four...
Abstract Introduction Pectus carinatum (PC) is a congenital chest wall deformity which characterized by the protrusion of sternum and costal cartilages. Although orthotic exercise therapies are commonly offered physicians for PC treatment, there lack evidence on benefits exercises how long orthosis should be worn. The aim this study to investigate effects feasibility custom-made compression in treatment PC. Materials Methods Patients with aged 7 17 years old were randomized into three...
Pulmonary aspergilloma is an uncommon pulmonary disease that complicated with many other respiratory disorders. Despite advances in medication, surgical treatment continues to form the basis of treatment. However, use uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery extremely limited aspergilloma. In this report, 5 patients who underwent anatomic resection safely technique without requiring a traditional thoracotomy were presented.
Sternal cleft is a rare chest wall deformity associated with various malformations. Primary closure the gold standard in newborn period. Alternative techniques are possible for older patients. A 23-year-old woman partial sternal and no additional deformity, underwent reconstruction using costal cartilage grafts. Postoperative physical functional were excellent.
The underlying mechanisms for the development of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension and prognostic biomarkers are not clear yet. Thus, our aim is to assess identify new expression 84 key genes linked angiogenesis.Patients who had levels more than 1000 dynes·sec·cm-5 were included in test group, other patients control group. Twelve specimens taken from patients. RT2 Profiler PCR Array (Qiagen) was used quantify genes.Eight (6 male, 2 female, median age 54.4 ± 13.1 years) underwent...
Background: In this study, we aimed to describe our experience with primary pulmonary artery sarcoma in patients who underwent endarterectomy and evaluate clinical features, treatment, outcomes, survival rates according the histological subtypes of malignant disease. Methods: Between March 2011 May 2022, a total 13 (7 males, 6 females; mean age: 52.6±13.0 years; range, 30 69 years) diagnosed were retrospectively analyzed. The diagnosis was confirmed histopathologically all patients. Data...
Objective: Pectus carinatum is the second most common chest wall deformity causing psychological problems. There has been a
 growing interest in conservative treatment of disease recent years. Here, we present results first 100 patients who were
 treated with compressive external bracing therapy.
 Patients and Methods: A total one hundred were between 2017-2023
 reviewed from database. Parameters recorded include demographics, type deformity, duration time,
