Surgical treatment of thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm caused by Brucella melitensis

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2023
Thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm caused by Brucella melitensis is extremely rare with extremely few cases reported to date. Herein, we present the case of a 65 year-old man with a huge pseudoaneurysm of the proximal descending thoracic aorta, involving the

A rare case of vena cava leiomyoma: A case report

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2021
Intravascular leiomyoma is an uncommon disease and depending of vascular involvement and anesthetic challenge. We review a case of a 53-year-old woman who underwent vena cava leiomyoma resection under cardiopulmonary bypass using deep hypothermic ...

Patient blood management and surgery: Impact of new surgical techniques on transfusion needs

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Patient blood management (PBM) is a multidisciplinary approach aimed at reducing the use of blood products. It considers the patient's own blood as a valuable resource to preserve and seeks to avoid the routine use of transfusions to treat anaemia.

Sutureless aortic valve implantation in patient with porcelain aorta via unclamped aorta and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2017
Severe atherosclerotic calcification of the ascending aorta, the so-called porcelain aorta, precludes cardiac surgeons from placing an aortic cross-clamp and direct aortic cannulation due to the increased risk of systemic embolism and stroke.

Changes in near infrared spectroscopy during deep hypothermic circulatory arrest

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2009
Monitoring cerebral oxygenation with near infrared spectroscopy may identify periods of cerebral desaturation and thereby the patients at risk for perioperative neurocognitive issues.

Repair of ascending aorta pseudoaneurysm without circulatory arrest in redo patient [PDF]

, 2006
A pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta is an unusual and potentially fatal complication after aortic surgical operations. TEE and CT scan are the investigations of choice. Surgical treatment is mandatory.

Intraoperative Electroencephalography During Aortic Arch Surgery [PDF]

, 2017
Since its introduction, deep hypothermic circulatory arrest has been widely used for cerebral protection during aortic arch surgery. The use of electroencephalogram plays an important role in intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring.

Brain strain: Blood flow and metabolism in environmental extremes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This narrative review compares and contrasts the most commonly encountered environmental stressors on human cerebrovascular functioning. From high altitude and space, extreme apnoea, heat and cold stress, the impact of these stressors on the regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and oxygen metabolism (CMRO2${\mathrm{CM}}{{\mathrm{R}}_ ...
