Successful bridge to heart transplantation in a pediatric patient with biventricular heart failure associated with Barth syndrome: a case report.
A one-year-old boy with Barth syndrome presented in cardiogenic shock due to severe biventricular heart failure. He received emergency biventricular assist device support, with innovative management of the right…
Y-incision aortic annular enlargement using the arc patch modification: a step-by-step tutorial.
Aortic annular enlargement is an important adjunct to aortic valve replacement in patients with a small aortic annulus and restricted aortic root anatomy.
Superior vena cava reconstruction using autologous femoral vein graft.
A 39-year-old woman with left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy developed chronic superior vena cava obstruction after receiving a transvenous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.
Totally endoscopic transaortic septal myectomy for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
A symptomatic patient with severe left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve underwent a totally endoscopic transaortic septal myectomy.
Robotic resection of an anterior mediastinal mass en bloc with the left innominate vein and pericardium post induction treatment for thymic carcinoma.
A 70-year-old man presented with an anterior mediastinal mass identified as thymic squamous cell carcinoma, measuring 85 x 45 mm, which invaded the pericardium and occluded the left innominate vein.
Tricuspidization of a unicuspid aortic valve in an adolescent using selective single-cusp replacement.
