The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1978
Sternal dehiscence requiring reoperation occurred in 36 out of 4,531 patients who had a sternotomy incison within an eight-year period. Twisted sternal wire sutures were used for the first four years and a crimped steel plate fixation was used during the second four years with a marked and significant decrease in the incidence of dehiscence from 17 out

Hydrodissection in Redo Sternotomies
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2005Injection of pressurized normal saline into the retrosternal tissue has been used in redo sternotomies. This technique has been labeled as hydrodissection. It is a simple but effective technique to help minimize the trauma and risk of complications in redo sternotomies.

Reversed C Sternotomy versus Conventional Sternotomy in Cardiac Surgery
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 2013In this study, cardiac surgery with minimally invasive reversed C sternotomy was compared with conventional sternotomy in patients undergoing valve replacement or septal defect repair.In this prospective randomized study, 35 patients were assigned into one of two groups for elective cardiac surgery under general anesthesia: Group A (reversed C ...

Chronic Osteomyelitis after Sternotomy
Acta Chirurgica Belgica, 2001Two patients with chronic sternal osteomyelitis after an initially uncomplicated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) operation are described. Chronic osteomyelitis, caused in both cases by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, occurred six and four months after CABG respectively. Because chronic infection failed to respond to local wound care and medical therapy,

[Imaging of median sternotomy complications].
La Clinica terapeutica, 2005Median sternotomy is the surgical technique of chosen for cardiac surgery. Although the complications after median sternotomy are not so frequent, these are associated to elevated mortality. The complications can interest the presternal compartment, the sternal compartment or the retrosternal compartment.

Although median sternotomy was succinctly described in 1897, "Milton's procedure" was essentially unused until it was recommended in 1957. With the advent of coronary bypass operation in 1968, median sternotomy became one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures.
