Biomechanical comparison of median sternotomy closures
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2004Poor healing of median sternotomy can significantly increase morbidity, mortality, and hospital costs. Effective union requires reliable sternal fixation. Although wire has proven the most reliable and widely used sternotomy closure material, no experimental studies have compared a large variety of wiring techniques in a human model.

Delayed Closure of the Median Sternotomy Incision
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1985Attempts to close a median sternotomy incision in the patient with profound cardiac or pulmonary dysfunction following a cardiac surgical procedure can result in severe hemodynamic deterioration. Delayed sternal closure in this setting may be a lifesaving technique.

Conventional Techniques: Median Sternotomy
2008It is now well known and accepted that the thymus plays a central role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune nonthymomatous and thymomatous myasthenia gravis (MG) [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. While in case of a thymoma oncological reasons make surgery mandatory and the sternotomy route is the golden standard, on the other hand the presence of a radiologically “normal”

Median sternotomy for resection of lung metastases.
The Italian journal of surgical sciences, 1985Three patients operated upon via median sternotomy for resection of bilateral lung metastases are presented. 2 show no evidence of disease 30 and 42 months after operation, one died 10 months after surgery. The literature on the subject is reviewed; median sternotomy is considered a quick, safe and reliable route, indicated when resection of bilateral ...

Haemostasis and Healing following Median Sternotomy
1975Experiments in goats showed that the application of bone wax to the divided sternum retarded healing. An autologous red cell compound was an efficient haemostatic and lacked the obstructive effect of wax. A human autologous red cell compound has been applied to the sterna of 15 patients following median sternotomy with good effect.
