Surgical treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension in combination with a left anterior descending artery myocardial bridge: A case report

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Pulmonary thromboendarterectomy is a potentially curative option for most patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). However, a special group of patients with CTEPH requires simultaneous cardiac procedures. We report a rare case

Giant atherosclerotic aneurysm of the left anterior descending artery [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2003
of the proximal segment of the arch vessels is necessary anyway. The preparation of a somewhat longer proximal segment of the common carotid artery is not time-consuming and normally does not require an additional surgical access. Even in cases where the intrathoracic cannulation is not possible, the carotid artery is better accessible than the ...

Bioinspired Passive Flow Routing to Mitigate Thrombosis in Prosthetic Heart Valves and Cardiovascular Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bioinspired passive flow routing mitigates thrombosis in cardiovascular devices by redirecting a small fraction of forward flow into stagnation‐prone regions. Inspired by avian alula and aircraft slat mechanisms, strategically placed routing channels restore washout around mechanical heart valves, reducing low‐shear exposure by four orders of magnitude

Microenvironment‐Responsive Nanomedicine Enables Vertical Modulation of Mitochondrial Pathological Networks in Myocardial Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A mitochondria‐targeted, microenvironment‐responsive nanoplatform enables pH/ROS‐triggered co‐delivery of berberine and isoliensinine to orchestrate ROS scavenging, inflammation suppression, and apoptosis inhibition. This vertical modulation of mitochondrial pathological networks preserves mitochondrial function and effectively mitigates myocardial ...
