Aortic arch surgery is performed at increasingly higher circulatory arrest temperatures. This might affect visceral protection. We analyzed the effect of ischemic time in under mild-to-moderate hypothermia. divided population into 3 groups: group 1 (visceral ≤30 minutes), 2 (31-60 and (>60 minutes). The link between times in-hospital outcomes, function biomarker levels were retrospectively through chi-square test, nonparametric analysis variance, cubic spline interpolation. From 1995 to...

Abstract OBJECTIVES Aortic valve-sparing root replacement using the reimplantation technique and mitral valve repair are well-established surgical approaches for treatment of aortic pathologies insufficiency. However, management concomitant diseases with a dual valve-preserving strategy remains poorly described. Therefore, aim this study is to evaluate long-term outcomes sparing surgery repair. METHODS This case series includes all patients that underwent combined at Cliniques Universitaires...

The goal of this multicentre retrospective study was to compare long-term clinical and haemodynamic outcomes the Carpentier-Edwards Magna Ease (CEME) bioprosthesis by patient age.We included consecutive patients who underwent isolated combined surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) with CEME between January 2008 March 2020 at 4 cardiac surgery centres in Italy. Survival distribution evaluated follow-up according age type (combined or AVR), together freedom from structural deterioration...

The Ross procedure has demonstrated excellent long-term results, with restoration of life-expectancy in patients severe aortic valve dysfunction. However, reintervention after can occur, and herein we describe our center's experience redo surgery previous procedures.We searched prospective database for valve-repair recruited all adult (≥18 years) who have undergone valve-sparing root replacements (VSRRs) and/or between July 2001 2022. Univariable logistic regression analysis was performed to...

Abstract After heart transplant, the immune system of recipient could recognise transplanted as foreign and reject it. To avoid it, immunosuppressive therapy is used, but sometimes it not enough, in these cases high doses immunosuppressors must be used. If rejection cellular mediated main corticosteroid therapy. A 63–years–old woman presented one year after due to acute graft rejection, detected at follow–up biopsies. High dose intravenous was started. She had history Chron’s disease treated...

Objective: Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a subcortical vasogenic cerebral oedema involving parieto-occipital regions in patients with acute neurological symptoms. The aim of this study to analyse an interesting case PRES after heart transplant. Design and method: A transplant was performed 53-years-old woman affected by arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. She had history atrial fibrillation ventricular requiring implantable cardioverter defibrillator, chronic renal...

Background: The impact of aortic inflammation on surgery is still unclear. Hypothesis: affects the freedom from reintervention in distal native aorta following Bentall procedure. Methods: This a retrospective observational study performed histology patients over 18 years old who underwent procedure single centre, 2000 to 2023. Variables included demographics, cardiovascular risk factors and ascending diameter. follow-up verified death or aorta. relationship between was tested with Logistic...

Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is the most fearful side effect of oral anticoagulant therapy. It still unclear which risk factor involved in ICH during vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) treatment and if commonly used bleeding scores are able to predict ICH.Search for individual factors (HAS-BLED, ATRIA ORBIT) associated with ICHs patients atrial fibrillation treated VKAs.This a retrospective case-control study single Thrombosis Center. During 7-year period, nonvalvular (NVAF) who developed VKAs...

Abstract Toxocara Canis is a parasitic roundworm which cause zoonotic infections worldwide. It could affect heart causing myocarditis, pericarditis and Loffler’s endocarditis, with clinical presentation ranged from asymptomatic to life threating conditions failure. After transplantation, patients are immunosuppressed, therefore they experience reactivation of hidden parasitosis like Toxocariasis. To our knowledge, some cases affecting the have been described in literature, but there no this...
