Background Linezolid is an oxazolidinone antibiotic used in the treatment of Gram‐positive bacterial infections. However, its prolonged use is often limited by adverse effects, including thrombocytopenia. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) has been proposed to individualize linezolid dosing to mitigate such adverse effects. This study presents a case of

Background Lutembacher syndrome (LS) is a rare condition characterized by the coexistence of mitral stenosis (MS) and an atrial septal defect (ASD). Clinical manifestations vary according to the severity of MS and the size of the ASD. Case Presentation We report a 13‐year‐old female with congenital MS and a secundum ASD who presented with decompensated

Infective endocarditis (IE) imposes a challenge in clinical practice, often demanding rapid and precise identification of the causative agent to guide tailored therapeutic interventions. However, a subset of cases presents an elusive diagnostic dilemma with culture‐negative results, thereby complicating the management strategy.

Ring or suture annuloplasty for tricuspid regurgitation? : a meta-analysis review
We performed a meta-analysis of early and long-term outcomes after tricuspid repair to compare the results of suture-based and prosthetic ring annuloplasty with the employment of an algorithm that derives the original patient time-to-event data.

Midterm comparison between different annuloplasty techniques for functional tricuspid regurgitation
BACKGROUND Several tricuspid annuloplasty (TA) techniques are used for concomitant repair of functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR). This study compared the midterm clinical and valvular outcome among 3 annuloplasty techniques. METHODS TA was performed

Objective We aimed to describe the surgical technique and clinical outcomes of totally endoscopic repair of partial atrioventricular septal defect using a 3D visualization system. Methods The study included 27 patients with a mean age of 42.5 years, and a male‐to‐female ratio of 1: 2, who underwent totally endoscopic repair of partial atrioventricular ...

De Vega's tricuspid annuloplasty: Analysis of 195 patients
In the years 1984-1989, 195 De Vega tricuspid annuloplasties were performed in association with mitral or mitral-aortic valve procedures. Preoperatively, 9 patients (4.6%) were in New York Heart Association functional class II, 124 (63.6%) were in class ...

Objective A robotic approach to primary structural cardiac operations has been established, but there are fewer reports regarding its use in a reoperative setting. Our primary aim was to retrospectively compare outcomes between patients who underwent a robotic approach versus resternotomy for reoperative mitral valve interventions.

DeVega versus ring annuloplasty in severe functional tricuspid insufficiency and their impact on the right ventricle [PDF]
Background: Functional tricuspid valve regurgitation secondary to left-sided valve disease is common. DeVega repair is simple, but residual regurgitation with subsequent impairment of the right ventricular function is a concern.
