After a fall from a height, a patient presented 54 days later with rupture of a posterior left ventricular aneurysm. Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation provided circulatory support before surgical aneurysm…
Uniportal versus multiportal robotic-assisted thoracic surgery for anatomical pulmonary resection: a systematic review and meta-analysis of perioperative recovery and surgical quality.
This systematic review and meta-analysis compared uniportal/single-port with multiportal robotic-assisted thoracic surgery for anatomical pulmonary resection.
Streptococcus constellatus-Associated Lemierre Syndrome Presenting With Cavitating Septic Pulmonary Emboli Managed by Video-Assisted Thoracoscopy.
A previously healthy 25-year-old man presented with a week of dyspnea, productive cough, fever, and hemoptysis, with severe hypoxemia and respiratory distress.
Minimally invasive management of pulmonary artery bleed in robotic left upper lobectomy.
A patient undergoing robotic left upper lobectomy for a Pancoast tumour developed an intraoperative pulmonary artery bleed.
Clinical Outcomes and Complications of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) in Adult Patients With COVID-19 in Central and Eastern Europe: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
This systematic review and meta-analysis pooled observational studies of adults with COVID-19 treated with ECMO in Central and Eastern Europe. Twelve studies covered 802 patients from six countries.
Spiked Helmet Sign in the Early Post-Heart Transplantation Period: A Dramatic STEMI Mimic in a Structurally Normal Donor Heart.
A 36-year-old woman with severe dilated cardiomyopathy underwent heart transplantation and subsequently developed subarachnoid hemorrhage and septic shock.
Robotic resection of cardiac papillary fibroelastoma guided by three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography: a case report.
A patient was diagnosed with a papillary fibroelastoma involving the mitral valve. Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (3D TEE) was used to characterize the suspected lesion and assess its anatomy…
Large Carinal Chondrosarcoma: Resection of the Main Carina, Distal Trachea, and Orifices of the Mainstem Bronchi and Construction of a New Carina.
A 23-year-old man presented with dyspnea, fatigue, and cough. CT showed a lobulated mass anterior to the distal trachea and main carina; bronchoscopy demonstrated carinal widening, significant stenosis of both mainstem…
En bloc excision of a large hydatid cyst originating from the posterior wall of the left ventricle.
A male patient was found incidentally to have a hydatid cyst arising from the posterior wall of the left ventricle. The cyst was completely removed en bloc through a left ventriculotomy.
Optimization of Anticoagulation Strategy During Cardiopulmonary Bypass in Neonates with Congenital Heart Disease: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Neonatal hemostatic immaturity complicates anticoagulation during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Current practice largely follows the strategy of 400 U/kg from adult protocols, as neonatal-specific guidelines and…
Robotic selective thoracic sympathectomy for hyperhidrosis: refined technique and anatomical variation.
Primary hyperhidrosis substantially impairs quality of life. Conventional sympathectomy risks compensatory hyperhidrosis through trunk disruption, whilst selective sympathectomy preserves the trunk while dividing…
Endoscopic secondary chordae transfer and edge-to-edge repair for the treatment of asymmetric anterior leaflet prolapse.
A 59-year-old patient with Barlow’s disease presented with severe mitral regurgitation from asymmetric anterior leaflet prolapse.
Stroke thrombectomy of a mural thrombus in a severe dolichoectatic basilar artery with double parallel large stent retrievers and Sofia 88.
An older adult presented with severe acute ischemic stroke from a mural thrombus on the posterior wall of the mid-basilar artery.
Impact of Extent of Coronary Artery Disease in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: A PRO-TAVI Substudy.
This post hoc substudy of the multicentre randomised PRO-TAVI trial examined whether coronary disease complexity, measured by SYNTAX score, was associated with outcomes among 466 patients with significant coronary…
Robotic-assisted versus conventional coronary artery bypass grafting: a systematic review, meta-analysis, and trial sequential analysis of 39,918 patients.
This systematic review and meta-analysis compared robotic-assisted with conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) across nine observational studies involving 39,918 patients.
The role of fibrinogen concentrate in the reduction of allogeneic blood product requirements: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
This systematic review and meta-analysis compared fibrinogen concentrate (FC) with other treatments for acquired hypofibrinogenaemia across clinical settings.
Axillary microaxial flow pump support for stepwise source control and bridge to durable left ventricular assist device therapy in cardiac device-related infective endocarditis.
A 53-year-old man with long-standing dilated cardiomyopathy presented with cardiac resynchronization therapy-defibrillator infection, methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia, respiratory failure, acute…
Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation as a Bridge to Cardiac Transplantation in Refractory Cardiac Arrest Due to Fulminant Myocarditis: A Case Report.
A previously healthy 36-year-old woman presented with fulminant myocarditis and cardiogenic shock, then sustained an in-hospital cardiac arrest that did not respond to conventional CPR.
Home versus centre exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation after coronary artery bypass grafting: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
This systematic review and meta-analysis assessed exercise-based home cardiac rehabilitation (HBCR) versus centre-based rehabilitation (CBCR) or usual care after coronary artery bypass grafting.
EACTS Expert Consensus Document on aortic valve repair and valve-sparing aortic root replacement procedures.
This EACTS Expert Consensus Document critically reviews evidence on aortic valve repair and valve-sparing aortic root replacement for aortic regurgitation and proximal thoracic aortic aneurysms across age groups.
Effect of preoperative video-based digital educational program on incidence of delirium and length of hospital stay following coronary artery bypass grafting: A randomized controlled trial.
