Outcomes and re-interventions after one-stage repair of transposition of great arteries and aortic arch obstruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objectives: One-stage repair of transposition of great arteries (TGA) and aortic arch obstruction (AAO) is currently advocated, but carries formidable surgical challenges. This report presents our experience and re-interventions for residual lesions over

Establishment of a mouse model for ischaemic heart failure induced by coronary microembolization via left ventricular oil injection

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past three decades, there has been a steady increase in clinical attention to ischaemic heart failure caused by coronary microembolization. Nonetheless, a suitable mouse model for studying this condition remains limited. In the present study, we developed a mouse model of coronary microembolization‐induced ischaemic heart failure by ...

Adult congenital aortic coarctation complicated by acute type a aortic intramural hematoma treated with a staged hybrid technique: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) in adults is rare. usually combined with dilatation of the ascending aorta. Further disease progression complicated by hematoma or dissection of the ascending aorta is even more complicated and dangerous.

Arm-leg pressure gradients on late follow-up after coarctation repair: Possible causes and implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Seventeen years after coarctation repair, 36 patients were studied by magnetic resonance imaging and exercise testing to measure residual anatomical stenosis and hormonal response to exercise, and to evaluate their effect on arm-leg gradients and on ...

Microelectrode recordings from the human cervical vagus nerve during maximal breath‐holds

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Voluntary breath‐holds can be sustained for a long time following training, but ultimately, regardless of duration, the asphyxic break‐point is reached and the apnoea terminated. The physiological changes occurring during the apnoea include a marked increase in sympathetically‐mediated vasoconstriction in non‐essential organs, such as skeletal

EuroSCORE II: Current limitations and physiological gaps in risk stratification

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Risk stratification remains critical in cardiac surgery, enabling clinicians to predict adverse outcomes and guide perioperative management. The European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (EuroSCORE) II, introduced in 2011, incorporates 18 key variables to provide an evidence‐based approach to risk assessment.

Surgery of the dilated aortic root and ascending aorta in pediatric patients: techniques and results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: Dilatation of the aortic root is a well-known cardiovascular manifestation in children and adult patients with connective tissue disease (e.g. Marfan syndrome).

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Congenital Saccular Aneurysm of Coarctation of Aorta: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2015
True saccular aneurysm is exceptional in coarctation of aorta in children. A 6-year-old girl with headache and systemic arterial hypertension referred to our center for cardiovascular evaluation. Physical examination revealed high blood pressure and weak
