Post-operative atrial fibrillation is influenced by beta-blocker therapy but not by pre-operative atrial cellular electrophysiology [PDF]

, 2006
We investigated whether post-cardiac surgery (CS) new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) is predicted by pre-CS atrial cellular electrophysiology, and whether the antiarrhythmic effect of beta-blocker therapy may involve pre-CS pharmacological remodeling ...

Surgery for transposition of great arteries: A historical perspective

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2015
The history of surgery for transposition of great arteries (TGA) has paralleled the history of cardiac surgery. In fact, it began before the birth of open heart surgery when the palliative Blalock-Hanlon septectomy was first performed in 1948. The atrial

The world upside down – after 20 years of follow-up of dextro-transposition of the great arteries

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2023
Dextro-transposition of the great arteries (D-TGA) is a congenital heart disease (CHD) classically palliated with atrial switch (ATR-S) and nowadays corrected with arterial switch (ART-S).

Timely Detection of Subclinical Heart Failure Among Children with D-Transposition of Great Arteries after Senning Operation: A Single Center Experience [PDF]

Pediatric Sciences Journal (Egypt)
Background: Atrial switch operation, was introduced by Ake Senning in 1958 for patients with D-transposition of great arteries (D-TGA). The major disadvantage of the atrial switch procedure is right ventricle (RV) failure in up to 7% to 10% of patients ...

Atrioventricular Block Necessitating Chronic Ventricular Pacing After Tricuspid Valve Surgery in Patients With a Systemic Right Ventricle: Long-Term Follow-Up

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundPatients with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) after an atrial switch or congenitally corrected TGA (ccTGA) are prone to systemic right ventricular (sRV) failure. Tricuspid valve (TV) regurgitation aggravates sRV dysfunction. Timely TV
