Abstract Background and Aims Sinus venosus atrial septal defects (SVASDs) constitute a substantial part of atrial septal defects and are usually characterized by anomalous pulmonary venous connection (APVC), causing complications like sinus node dysfunction and arrhythmias. Several surgical approaches are used for treating SVASDs in pediatric patients,

Aortic arch replacement and autologous pericardial tracheal patch for an aorto‐tracheal fistula
Abstract Aorto‐tracheal fistulas are rare and highly lethal, with few reports of successful surgical intervention. We present a 48‐year‐old man with an aorto‐tracheal fistula induced by radiation therapy for tracheal squamous cell carcinoma. He presented with hemoptysis and chest pain and workup revealed the aorta‐tracheal fistula between the posterior

Abstract Background and Aims Postoperative cardiac outcomes after intracardiac repair (ICR) are determined by numerous factors whereas right ventricle (RV) dysfunction is considered essential for them, as only few studies attempted to evaluate it postsurgically.

Del Nido cardioplegia – what is the current evidence?
Del Nido cardioplegia is believed to be both clinically and economically efficient. The interest in this myocardial protection method has been continuously growing. However, the evidence is not clear. The article summarizes recent reports regarding del Nido cardioplegia.

Del Nido cardioplegia versus blood cardioplegia in coronary artery bypass grafting. [PDF]
The del Nido cardioplegia (DC) has been extensively used in congenital heart surgery for over two decades and is becoming popular in adult cardiac surgery. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of DC, compared to conventional blood cardioplegia (BC), in adult patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).This metachronous study ...

Production Standard and Stability of Compounded Del Nido Cardioplegia Solution [PDF]
Background: The del Nido cardioplegia solution (dNCS) was originally developed for pediatric cardiac surgery, being now also used for adult patients. Hospital pharmacies frequently resort to internal dNCS production which has led to an increase in the need for validated parameters for compounding and storage.

The use of del Nido cardioplegia for multiple cardiac surgery in adults [PDF]
Since Melrose et al . introduced potassium chloride induced cardiac arrest and calcium chloride induced recovery of heart beat (1), unceasing efforts have been made to improve the efficacy of myocardial protection during ischemic arrest for cardiac surgery.

Objectives: Previous studies have shown that Buckberg microplegia reduces the need for intraoperative blood transfusion by minimizing hemodilution. However, this approach has been largely understudied in the context of Del Nido cardioplegia.

Large Nonfunctioning Anterior Mediastinal Epiaortic Paraganglioma
We present a very rare case of a carotid body tumor accompanied by a large nonfunctioning epiaortic paraganglioma requiring ascending aorta replacement. Even though multiple paragangliomas in different locations in a single patient are highly uncommon, preoperative discovery of an extrathoracic neuroendocrine tumor should prompt full screening for the ...

Blood Cardioplegia Induction, Perfusion Storage and Graft Dysfunction in Cardiac Xenotransplantation
BackgroundPerioperative cardiac xenograft dysfunction (PCXD) describes a rapidly developing loss of cardiac function after xenotransplantation. PCXD occurs despite genetic modifications to increase compatibility of the heart.
