Composite valved apico-aortic conduits for left ventricular outflow obstruction.
Problems related to the left ventricular outflow tract are not always amenable to conventional surgical methods, and in some cases may be solved with the creation of a double outlet left ventricle, using a composite rigid pyrolite left ventricular apex ...

Echocardiographic evaluation of velocity ratio, velocity time integral ratio, and pulmonary valve area in dogs with pulmonary valve stenosis. [PDF]
BackgroundVelocity ratio, velocity time integral (VTI) ratio, and pulmonary valve area indexed to body surface area (iPVA) are methods of assessment of pulmonary valve stenosis (PS) severity that are less dependent on blood flow. Studies evaluating these

Prenatal diagnosis, management and outcome of fetal uretero-pelvic junction obstruction [PDF]
Prenatal diagnosis, management and outcome were studied retrospectively in 24 cases of unilateral and bilateral uretero-pelvie junction obstruction (UPJO). Moderate-to-marked pelvic dilatation was documented in 19 out of 24 cases. The low morbidity and

Diagnostic Yield of Post‐Mortem Fetal Micro‐CT for Thoracic Abnormalities
ABSTRACT Objective This study aims to identify the imaging findings specifically for thoracic anomalies in 1200 Micro‐CT cases, independent of whether the abnormality contributed to the main diagnosis or cause of death. Method We analyzed 1200 Micro‐CT scans in an unselected, consecutive cohort between 2017 and 2024 to identify thoracic anomalies ...

Age‐Dependent Correlation of Pulmonary Function Impairment and Aortic Arch Stiffness in Mice
This study examined the relationship between aortic arch stiffness and lung function in aging mice. Multiple linear regression modeling showed moderate to strong correlations between the rise in aortic arch stiffness and changes in lung function as the mice progressively aged.
