Advanced ablation strategies for management of post-surgical atrial arrhythmias. [PDF]
Post-surgical arrhythmias include a wide range of arrhythmias occurring late after cardiac surgery and represent a complex substrate for catheter ablation either because of extended scar and remodeling or because of limited access to the area of interest.

Sacrificial Biofabrication for Vascularization: Concept, Materials, Technologies, and Applications
Vasculature is indispensable for tissue viability in regenerative medicine. The sacrificial biofabrication enables precise fabrication of vascular channels by using temporary templates that are subsequently removed. This review defines the concept and delves into sacrificial materials, surrounding materials, fabrication technologies, and biomedical ...

Current Nationwide Landscape of Cardiac Surgery for Children With Trisomy 18 in Japan
ABSTRACT Despite the increasing number of retrospective cohorts describing successful cardiac surgery for children with trisomy 18, no consensus has been reached among healthcare providers regarding cardiac surgery in Japan. This study provided a benchmark to facilitate consensus building by assessing a nationwide surgical database in Japan. A total of

Anatomy of the ventricular septal defect in congenital heart defects: a random association?
Background A ventricular septal defect (VSD) is an integral part of most congenital heart defects (CHD). To determine the prevalence of VSD in various types of CHD and the distribution of their anatomic types.

Transcatheter closure of Ventricular Septal defects in Malta : initial experience [PDF]
Ventricular septal defects (VSD) consist of deficiencies of the wall separating the two ventricles. VSDs are the commonest congenital cardiac defects. Small VSDs rarely require intervention, however, larger defects cause ventricular volume overload with ...
