Large Nonfunctioning Anterior Mediastinal Epiaortic Paraganglioma

Case Reports in Cardiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
We present a very rare case of a carotid body tumor accompanied by a large nonfunctioning epiaortic paraganglioma requiring ascending aorta replacement. Even though multiple paragangliomas in different locations in a single patient are highly uncommon, preoperative discovery of an extrathoracic neuroendocrine tumor should prompt full screening for the ...

Myocardial Protection with Simultaneous Antegrade/Vein Graft Cardioplegia Compared to Antegrade Cardioplegia Alone in Elective Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Patients

Balkan Medical Journal, 2011
Objective: Cardioplegia distribution beyond a stenotic coronary artery may not be adequate. This problem can be overcome by direct delivery of cardioplegia via the vein grafts anastomosed during the operation.

Lack of Melatonin Secretion Induced by Moderate Hypothermia During Aortic‐Arch Surgery: Possible Implications in Neurological Outcomes

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Preclinical data from the peculiar animal model of “synthetic torpor” (ST), a reversible hypothermic condition resembling natural torpor but pharmacologically induced in rats (a nonhibernating mammal), suggest that in hypothermic conditions, the neuroprotective effects of melatonin are strongly enhanced.

Cardiac Microemboli During Cardiopulmonary Bypass: Structural Sources, Hemodynamics, and Neurologic Sequelae

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has been linked with the introduction of particulate matter and gaseous microemboli, which are believed to contribute to neurologic dysfunction after cardiac surgery. During CPB, microemboli can originate in the aorta from manipulation, valve decalcification, cardiotomy suction, cavitation, and air entrainment into the ...

Intraoperative Biochemical Variations and Short‐Term Cognitive Outcomes After Histidine–Tryptophan–Ketoglutarate Versus Plegisol Cardioplegia in Adult Cardiac Surgery

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Cardioplegia is essential for myocardial protection during cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Histidine–tryptophan–ketoglutarate (HTK) solution, an intracellular‐type cardioplegia, offers prolonged myocardial protection with single‐dose administration, whereas Plegisol, an extracellular‐type crystalloid cardioplegia solution ...

Bentall–De Bono Procedure via Right Infra‐Axillary Mini‐Thoracotomy: Early and Midterm Outcomes of a Novel Minimally Invasive Approach

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background/Aim The Bentall–De Bono procedure stands as the primary treatment method for ascending aortic aneurysms together with their associated valve disorders. The procedure requires a complete sternotomy for execution, but this method causes multiple complications which decrease patient comfort.

Normothermic Crystalloid Polarizing Cardioplegia Improves Systolic and Diastolic Function in a Porcine Model of Cardiopulmonary Bypass

Biomedicines
Background/Objectives: Previously, we showed that blood-based polarizing cardioplegia exerted beneficial cardioprotection during hypothermic ischemia; however, these positive effects of blood-based polarizing cardioplegia were reduced during normothermic
