Two‐year outcomes of a cardiac microcurrent device in chronic heart failure: A first‐in‐human pilot study

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims In heart failure patients, altered myocardial electrical fields linked to oedema may impair left ventricular function. While short‐term use of implanted microcurrent generators (C‐MIC) has shown promise, long‐term effects remain unclear.

Endoscopic remodeling of esophageal stenosis refractory to traditional endoscopic treatment

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Esophageal atresia (EA), with or without tracheoesophageal fistula, is the most common congenital anomaly of the esophagus. Surgical correction is the primary treatment, however, up to 80% of patients experience anastomotic stenosis, with esophageal balloon dilation (EBD) being the first‐line treatment.

Esophagectomy without thoracotomy

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1978
Blunt esophagectomy without thoracotomy has been performed in 26 patients: four with benign disease and 22 with carcinomas involving various levels of the esophagus (10 cervicothoracic, one upper third, five middle third, and six distal third). Continuity of the alimentary tract was restored by anastomosing the pharynx or cervical esophagus either to ...
