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 ...

Objectives Minimally invasive surgery for endocarditis reflects an emerging advancement in surgical therapy. Transaxillary access is a novel approach, with little current data on its safety and efficacy in these patients. This study reports outcomes of a transaxillary access cohort in aortic and mitral endocarditis compared to a full‐sternotomy cohort.

Introduction Mitral annular calcification (MAC) presents a significant surgical challenge, often rendering conventional surgery high risk. The presence of a heavily calcified, rigid, and friable annulus significantly increases the risk of complications such as atrioventricular groove disruption, annular rupture, and paravalvular leak.

ABSTRACT A giant pericardial cyst, though typically benign, can present with significant symptoms due to its compressive effects on cardiac structures. Accurate imaging and prompt surgical intervention are crucial for diagnosis and treatment, highlighting the importance of recognizing this rare condition in patients with unexplained cardiopulmonary ...

Abstract Aims Heart–lung transplantation (HLTx) remains a life‐saving intervention for patients with end‐stage cardiopulmonary failure. We retrospectively analysed long‐term HLTx outcomes at our centre to assess survival trends and evaluate the impact of evolving immunosuppressive, surgical and perioperative strategies.
