Background With an increasing number of Fontan patients surviving into adulthood, the burden end-stage heart failure is increasing. Prior studies have reported suboptimal transplantation (HTx) outcomes. Therefore, authors describe their institutional experience HTx in with circulation failure, including en-bloc heart-liver (HLTx) and pretransplant systemic ventricular assist device (SVAD) therapies. Methods All consecutive Fontan-palliated undergoing or HLTx between 2013 2022 at authors’...
Esophagectomy is the mainstay treatment for early stage and locoregionally advanced esophageal cancer. Anastomotic leaks following esophagectomy are associated with numerous detrimental sequelae. The management of anastomotic has evolved over time. present study a single-institution experience leak an 11-year period, in order to identify when these can be managed nonoperatively.All patients undergoing gastric reconstruction at our institution between 2004 2014 were identified. Preoperative...
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), characterized by exuberant inflammation and tissue deterioration, is a common disease associated with high mortality rate. There currently no established pharmacological therapy to treat this progressive disease. Andrographolide (Andro), major bioactive component of the herbaceous plant <i>Andrographis paniculata</i>, has been found exhibit potent anti-inflammatory properties inhibiting nuclear factor <i>κ</i>-light-chain-enhancer activated B cells...
Objective The Cox-Maze IV procedure has been shown to be an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation when performed concomitantly with other operations either via median sternotomy or right minithoracotomy. Few studies have compared these approaches in patients lone fibrillation. This study examined outcomes versus minithoracotomy stand-alone procedures at our institution. Methods Between 2002 and 2015, 195 underwent biatrial IV. Minithoracotomy was used 75 patients, 120. Freedom from...
Introduction Familial myasthenia is so unusual that each instance deserves reporting. Eighteen examples are recorded in the literature and will be discussed later. The association of gravis hyperthyroidism accepted by most workers as occurring often enough to significant. In 1948, Eaton 1 noted 6% myasthenic patients developed hyperthyroidism. Millikan Haines 2 quoted 5%, they also found only a fraction 1% with develop myasthenia. Another interesting phenomenon reported see-saw relationship...
Background: Bidirectional Glenn shunt (BDG) failure carries high morbidity and mortality but the clinical factors associated with optimal management strategy are understudied. Methods: A total of 217 patients undergoing BDG at our institution between 1989 2020 were retrospectively reviewed categorized as success or failure. Failure was defined need for reoperation (BDG takedown, correction cardiac defect, and/or transplantation) any time postoperatively; operative (death attributable to...
