Median sternotomy incision has shown to be a safe and efficacious approach in patients who require thoracic aortic interventions and still represents the gold-standard access. Nevertheless, over the last decade, less invasive techniques have gained wider clinical application in cardiac surgery becoming the first-choice approach to treat heart valve diseases, in experienced centers. The popularizat...... hiện toàn bộ
Recurrent cardiac hydatidosis in a child presenting as acute strokeIndian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery - Tập 24 - Trang 24-27 - 2008
Sandeep Kumar, Roumina Hasan
Cardiac echinococcosis is a rare but potentially life threatening condition, with surgery being the definitive treatment. We present the case of a 4 year boy who was diagnosed with concurrent pulmonary and left intraventricular hydatid cysts. He was operated for the same and advised prophylactic albendazole. After a symptom free interval of 8 months the child developed acute onset right sided hemi...... hiện toàn bộ
Impact of left atrium plication on chronic heart failure with atrial functional mitral regurgitationIndian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery - Tập 40 - Trang 24-32 - 2023

We hypothesized that a giant left atrium may oppress the posterior left ventricle and aggravate diastolic dysfunction and heart failure. We evaluated the effect of left atrial plication (LAP) on atrial functional mitral regurgitation. We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent LAP for atrial functional mitral regurgitation at our institution between January 2017 and December 2021. Early o...... hiện toàn bộ
Coronary artery bypass grafting versus concomitant mitral valve annuloplasty in moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation: 4-year follow-upIndian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery - Tập 33 - Trang 1-8 - 2016

In severe ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR), there is benefit evidence for mitral valve repair with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, there is still a debate around combined repair and CABG for moderate IMR. We evaluate our results over 4-year follow-up for patients with moderate IMR who underwent isolated CABG and combined with mitral ring annuloplasty. We retrospectively studied...... hiện toàn bộ
Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting: A single center experienceIndian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery - Tập 17 - Trang 77-81 - 2001

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) without cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is gaining popularity as an effective alternative to conventional CABG using cardiopulmonary bypass. With the advent of mechanical tissue stabilization systems and intra coronary shunts the technique of off-pump CABG (OPCAB) is now applicable to revascularize the patients with multi-vessel disease. A total of 293 patients ...... hiện toàn bộ
Swan-Ganz entrapment during cardiac surgery – a case reportIndian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery - Tập 29 - Trang 20-21 - 2013
Bhuvnesh Kansara, Ajmer Singh, Anil Karlekar, Yugal Kishore Mishra
Inability to withdraw a Swan-Ganz catheter as a result of its intracardiac entrapment is a rare but serious complication. In a normal intracardiac course, the catheter tends to rest against the antero-lateral wall of the right atrium where the catheter may be caught by the suture during cannulation for Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB). Entrapment of a Swan-Ganz catheter by the left atriotomy suture is...... hiện toàn bộ
