Percutaneous closure of ventricular septal defects in childhood

SA Heart Journal, 2017
Ventricular septal defect is the most common congenital cardiac lesion. Surgery was, until recently, the only modality of treatment available. Since the first percutaneous closure was attempted, new devices have been developed and used to close these ...

Percutaneous closure of small subpulmonic ventricular septal defect with an ADO I PDA occluder in a child

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2020
Ventricular septal defects (VSDs) comprise the most common congenital heart defect at birth. The chances of spontaneous closure of VSD depend on the size and location of the defect.

In Situ Genetic Engineering Facilitates MMP‐9‐Responsive TIMP1 Release Through Proteolytic Cleavage to Boost Diabetic Wound Healing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops an MMP‐9‐responsive protein release system that transforms resident cells into drug depots through in situ genetic engineering. Anchored to the membrane, the therapeutic protein TIMP1 is selectively released upon MMP‐9 cleavage.

Percutaneous Fasciotomies versus Traditional Keystone Flap: Evaluating Tension in Complex Wound Closure

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2019
Background:. The keystone flap is a popular reconstructive option for closure of cutaneous defects. Traditionally, this is a perforator-based fasciocutaneous advancement flap that uses both skin incision and fascial release.

Principles of Percutaneous Paravalvular Leak Closure

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2012
Paravalvular regurgitation affects 5% to 17% of all surgically implanted prosthetic heart valves. Patients who have paravalvular regurgitation can be asymptomatic or present with hemolysis or heart failure, or both. Reoperation is associated with increased morbidity and is not always successful because of underlying tissue friability, inflammation, or ...
