Paraplegia following aortic surgery [PDF]

Spinal Cord, 1982
It has long been recognised that paraplegia may occur after various surgical procedures on the heart and the aorta. Paraplegia occurring following traumatic rupture of the aorta has not been commonly reported due to the dismal prognosis of such rupture. Over the past 3 years, we have encountered five patients who survived traumatic rupture of the aorta

Hypothermia for aortic surgery [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2013
Hypothermic circulatory arrest has been used during aortic arch repairs with acceptable neurologic outcomes. Through the years, we have studied the effects of deep hypothermia on brain metabolism and perfusion both in a pig model and in surgical patients. Hypothermic circulatory arrest has also been used as a method of organ protection in the repair of

Correction of Residual Aortic Cusp Prolapse After Resuspension Repair in a Patient With Aortic Regurgitation

Annals of Thoracic Surgery Short Reports
A unique technique of correcting a residual prolapse after repairing the congenitally bicuspid valve has been reported. The patient was a 51-year-old woman with a regurgitant bicuspid aortic valve.

Aortic valve cusp repair does not affect durability of modified aortic valve reimplantation for tricuspid aortic valvesCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Open, 2023
Objective: During aortic valve reimplantation, cusp repair may be needed to produce a competent valve. We investigated whether the need for aortic valve cusp repair affects aortic valve reimplantation durability.

Association between the difference in cystatin C and creatinine-based eGFR and risks of multiple cardiovascular diseases: a prospective cohort study

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundThe difference between cystatin C- and creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRdiff) is closely associated with various adverse outcomes. This study aims to comprehensively evaluate the association between eGFRdiff, all-cause

Risk factor analysis of clinical outcomes of total aortic arch replacement and frozen elephant trunk with aortic balloon occlusion

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Background Total aortic arch replacement (TAR) with frozen elephant trunk (FET) requires hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) for 20 min, which increases the surgical risk.

Intraoperative autotransfusion in aortic surgery [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1993
Intraoperative autotransfusion is frequently used in aortic surgery, despite the paucity of data regarding its safety and efficacy. This study was designed to compare whole blood autotransfusion with homologous transfusion for the replacement of blood lost during abdominal aortic procedures.Whole blood autotransfusion was evaluated in 200 patients ...
