Descriptive, stratigraphic, and morpho‐functional study of the myocardium and myocardial bridges in domestic pig hearts

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The heart is the central organ of the cardiovascular system. The myocardium is composed of a three‐dimensional network of fibers arranged in clockwise and counterclockwise helices, which are essential for proper cardiac contraction. This study aimed to describe the stratigraphic and morpho‐functional pattern of the porcine myocardium to ...

Learning beyond the lab: A gamified approach to anatomy education in a museum‐based experience

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy education, traditionally rooted in descriptive instruction and cadaveric dissection, is undergoing a significant transformation through the integration of educational technologies and contemporary pedagogical strategies. Among these, active learning methodologies, such as gamified‐based learning, have emerged as approaches designed to ...

The Role of Electrophysiologic Study in Device Selection for Leadless Atrial Pacing [PDF]

open access: yesTexas Heart Institute Journal
The AVEIR DR (Abbott Medical) was the first dual-chamber leadless pacing system approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. Many patients with sinus node dysfunction have physiologically normal atrioventricular conduction, so an atrial-only pacing ...

Ivabradine in the treatment of non‐paroxysmal junctional tachycardia with interference atrioventricular dissociation: A case report

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2023
Ivabradine reduces the heart rate by selectively inhibiting the If current of the sinoatrial node, mainly for the treatment of chronic heart failure with decreased left ventricular systolic function and inappropriate sinus tachycardia, but the inhibitory

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Cesarean section under spinal anesthesia in acquired complete atrioventricular block without a pacemaker: A case report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2019
Pregnancy with complete atrioventricular block is rare, and its perioperative management is controversial. We successfully managed cesarean section in a pregnancy with acquired complete atrioventricular block under spinal anesthesia without a pacemaker ...

Atrioventricular Reciprocating Tachycardia Mediated by Twin Atrioventricular Nodes

open access: yesJACC: Clinical Electrophysiology, 2016
A 21-year-old man with univentricular and uniatrial heart came for a third attempt at ablation of recurrent supraventricular tachycardia. He had undergone a previous cardiac surgery of a Blalock–Taussig shunt, and bidirectional Glenn, and the electrophysiological study revealed an ...

Quo Vadis in Anatomical Research? Preserving the Conditions for Discovery in an Era of Predictable Outcomes

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contemporary anatomical research has become increasingly integrated with clinical practice, generating substantial benefits for patient care and strengthening the translational relevance of the discipline. At the same time, some of the most influential anatomical advances have emerged from investigations whose eventual significance could not ...

Coronary Perforation During Excimer Laser Angioplasty in a Patient With Prior Thoracic Radiotherapy

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Management of heavily calcified coronary lesions remains challenging despite advances in plaque‐modifying technologies. Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) is an effective adjunctive strategy with a low risk of no‐reflow. Case Summary A 75‐year‐old woman with non–ST‐segment elevation acute coronary syndrome and severe left ...

Making Mobile Leaflets: Biomechanical Forces in Atrioventricular Valve Formation

open access: yesCells
Atrioventricular valves prevent the backward flow of blood from the ventricles to the atria and are essential for the efficient pumping of blood throughout the body.
