Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms
Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...

Hybrid repair of an aberrant right subclavian artery with Kommerell's diverticulum
This publication describes a hybrid endovascular and open surgical approach to treating a large aneurysm of an aberrant right subclavian artery (Kommerell’s diverticulum). A 76-year old man presented with dysphagia lusoria due to a 3.5 x 3.0 cm aneurysm

ABSTRACT Purpose Congenital heart disease affects 1% of US births, with some infants requiring cardiothoracic surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Optimal surgical parameters to minimize neuronal injury are unknown. We used serial 1H MRS in a neonatal CPB porcine model to assess acute neuronal damage and associated injury mechanisms.

ABSTRACT Port catheters provide a reliable, long‐term venous access option in children for repeated administration of medications or parenteral nutrition. A cardiac catheterization procedure was performed in a 7‐year‐old girl in whom lateral chest radiography revealed posterior deviation suggestive of azygos vein malposition.

Hybrid repair of Kommerell's diverticulum with aberrant subclavian artery
Kommerell's diverticulum (KD) is a rare aortic arch anomaly associated with aberrant subclavian arteries and risk of rupture. We present an 80-year-old woman with a right-sided aortic arch and aberrant left subclavian artery arising from a 5.0-cm KD.

Right Sided Aortic Arch and its Rare Associations- A Case Series
Right sided aortic arch is a rare incidental anomaly in adults often asymptomatic. Most common subtype is Right Aortic Arch (RAA) with aberrant left subclavian artery. We report three cases of right sided aortic arch with multiple vascular anomalies. Two

ABSTRACT Background Right atrial pressure (RAP) is a key determinant of venous return and reflects right‐sided filling pressures in critically ill patients. Central venous pressure (CVP) is commonly used as a surrogate, but its accuracy depends on appropriate transducer levelling. While reference points have been evaluated in supine positions, evidence

Objective: – Adult patients with a right-sided aortic arch and aberrant left subclavian artery with a co-existing Kommerell’s diverticulum (KD) can develop clinically significant esophageal compression requiring staged, open, followed by endovascular ...
