Superior vena cava syndrome in a patient with previous cardiac surgery: what else should we suspect? [PDF]

, 2010
Background Although mediastinal tumors compressing or invading the superior vena cava represent the major causes of the superior vena cava syndrome, benign processes may also be involved in the pathogenesis of this medical emergency.

Exercise oscillatory ventilation in patients with advanced heart failure with and without left ventricular assist device

Artificial Organs, Volume 47, Issue 1, Page 168-179, January 2023., 2023
Peak oxygen consumption, VO2peak, was associated with short‐term 3‐months‐rehospitalization in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Exercise oscillatory ventilation (EOV), representing fluctuations of pulmonary artery pressure, can be observed in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction with and without left ...

Treatment of Superior Vena Cava (SVC) Syndrome and Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) Thrombosis in a Patient with Colorectal Cancer: Combination of SVC Stenting and IVC Filter Placement to Palliate Symptoms and Pave the Way for Port Implantation [PDF]

, 2018
Thrombosis of the inferior vena cava is a life-threatening complication in cancer patients leading to pulmonary embolism. These patients can also be affected by superior vena cava syndrome causing dyspnea followed by trunk or extremity swelling.

Target Flow-Pressure Operating Range for Designing a Failing Fontan Cavopulmonary Support Device [PDF]

, 2019
Fontan operation as the current standard of care for the palliation of single ventricle defects results in significant late complications. Using a mechanical circulatory device for the right circulation to serve the function of the missing subpulmonary ventricle could potentially stabilize the failing Fontan circulation.

The accessory renal arteries: A systematic review with meta‐analysis

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
Abstract The accessory renal arteries (ARAs) are a well‐described variant of the renal vasculature with clinical implications for radiologists, surgeons, and clinicians. The aim of the present systematic review with meta‐analysis was to estimate the pooled prevalence of ARAs, including their variant number, origin, and termination, and to highlight ...

Isolation of persistent left superior vena cava during atrial fibrillation ablation [PDF]

, 2015
Persistent left superior vena cava is a rarely seen anomaly but it may be an arrhythmogenic source for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Furthermore, the complex anatomicregion between the left superior vena cava and the pulmonary veins may leads to ...
