Mammary artery harvesting using the Da Vinci Si robotic system
Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2014 Internal mammary artery harvesting is an essential part of any coronary artery bypass operation. Totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass graft surgery has become reality in many centers as a safe and effective alternative to conventional surgery in ...

Levosimendan for patients with severely reduced left ventricular systolic function and/or low cardiac output syndrome undergoing cardiac surgery. a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Previous studies have shown beneficial effects of levosimendan in high-risk patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Two large randomized controlled trials (RCTs), however, showed no advantages of levosimendan.

Biomimetic Cell Membrane‐Coated Scaffolds for Enhanced Tissue Regeneration
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review examines the development and use of cell membrane‐coated scaffolds in tissue engineering. Bioinspired phospholipid and glycocalyx coatings enhance anti‐fouling, anti‐thrombogenic, and selective molecular recognition properties. Native cell membrane coatings further support cell‐specific interactions, immune modulation, and reduced bacterial

Coronary artery surgery: cardiotomy suction or cell salvage?
Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2007 Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) today results in what may be regarded as acceptable levels of blood loss with many institutions avoiding allogeneic red cell transfusion in over 60% of their patients.

Dextrocardia with situs inversus totalis: coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]
, 2012 Dextrocardia with situs inversus is a rare congenital abnormality involving a left-handed mal rotation of the visceral organs. The incidence of coronary artery disease is the same as that in the general population.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.An engineered in vitro platform mimicking stent strut cross‐sectional shapes reveals how geometry influences cell behavior. Sharp‐cornered geometries promote cell proliferation and matrix alignment, while rounded shapes reduce these effects. The findings align with clinical outcomes and suggest intracellular tension as a key driver, offering a ...

Urgent Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery in a Patient with Post-Cardiac Injury Syndrome: A Very Rare Case Report [PDF]
Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, 2023 Background and Objective: Coronary artery bypass surgery in a patient with post-cardiac injury syndrome (PCIS or sever pericarditis following myocardial infarction) is very rare and extremely difficult.

Coronary artery grafting in infants [PDF]
, 2009 Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiac vale repair is an uncommon surgery in infants. CABG is technically demanding in infants due to the small size not only of the coronary arteries but also the potential graft arteries.

Cardiac magnetic resonance findings predict increased resource utilization in elective coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]
, 2008 Morbidity following CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting) is difficult to predict and leads to increased healthcare costs. We hypothesized that pre-operative CMR (cardiac magnetic resonance) findings would predict resource utilization in elective CABG ...
