Microaxial pump‐supported coronary surgery without CPB to optimize outcome in severely impaired left ventricles

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is the standard approach for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in advanced ischaemic cardiomyopathy. Microaxial pump support has been envisioned to allow for beating‐heart CABG without CPB (MPCAB), thereby avoiding CPB‐inherent complications.

Carotid Stenting for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2007
Angioplasty and stenting should not be performed for patients with asymptomatic atherosclerotic carotid bifurcation stenosis, except in the context of randomized clinical trials. Surgical carotid endarterectomy (CEA) has been proven effective over medical therapy in select asymptomatic patient populations.

Prognostic Factors for Free Flap Failure in Head and Neck Reconstruction

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The failure rate of free flaps varies from 0.8% to 10.6% in the literature in head and neck reconstruction. The primary objective was to identify prognostic factors for free flap failure. Methods We prospectively included all consecutive free flaps performed between August 2021 and January 2024, and used a multivariate Cox ...

Three‐Dimensional Evaluation of Superficial Temporal Artery and Its Terminal Branches: Implications for Clinical Practice

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The superficial temporal artery (STA) and its terminal branches are crucial in various clinical procedures, including reconstructive surgeries and aesthetic interventions. Understanding the depth and course of these arteries is essential to minimize complications during such procedures.
