A 90-year-old man presented with early cardiac lead perforation following device implantation. The diagnosis was suspected due to capture failure on the electrocardiogram and confirmed by chest computed tomography.
Cerebral embolic protection devices for transcatheter aortic valve replacement: A meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis.
This meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy of current-generation cerebral embolic protection devices (CEPDs) during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) across 8 randomized controlled trials involving 11,596…
FILONEX - A prospective, randomized controlled pilot safety study evaluating the addition of hemodiafiltration to EVLP in marginal donor lungs.
The FILONEX trial evaluated the safety and feasibility of adding hemodiafiltration (HDF) to ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) in 30 marginal donor lungs.
Endovascular Repair of Intraoperative Penetrating Injury to the Subclavian Vein: Case Report, Technical Considerations and Literature Review.
A 60-year-old woman sustained an iatrogenic left subclavian vein injury during lateral cervical lymph node dissection for invasive thyroid carcinoma.
Postcardiotomy veno-arterial membrane oxygenation as a bridge to heart replacement therapies.
Data on the outcome of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A-ECMO) support as a bridge to replacement therapies are scarce.
The Benefits of an Intracardiac Conduit in the Fontan Operation for Complex Systemic Venous Anomalies in Patients with Single Ventricle Physiology.
The report describes four patients with single-ventricle physiology and complex systemic venous anatomy who underwent Fontan-related surgery using an intracardiac conduit (ICC).
Impact of Restrictive Versus Liberal Oxygenation on Pulmonary Decline After Cardiac Surgery: A Substudy of the GLORIOUS Randomized Clinical Trial.
This predefined, exploratory substudy of the GLORIOUS randomized clinical trial compared restrictive (FiO₂ 50%) with liberal (FiO₂ 100%) oxygenation during cardiopulmonary bypass and the first hour after weaning in…
Intraoperative 3D Transesophageal Echocardiography for Early Detection of Pulmonary Vascular Complications in Lung Transplantation: A Case-Based Teaching Series.
This case-based teaching series describes three lung transplant operations in which intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) identified pulmonary vascular abnormalities and informed surgical decisions.
Percutaneous Closure of Patent Foramen Ovale in a Patient With Incomplete Cor Triatriatum Sinister: A Case Report.
A 55-year-old man with no significant medical history presented after a cryptogenic ischemic stroke, considered likely related to a patent foramen ovale (PFO).
Middle Aortic Syndrome Repair in a 14-Month-Old Child: A 24-Year Case Study.
A 14-month-old boy with severe hypertension and recurrent heart failure was found to have juxta-diaphragmatic aortic coarctation from mid-aortic syndrome.
Wire puncture technique for placement of perfusion sheath during venous-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
A critically ill patient with acute myocardial infarction required VA ECMO during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Because the large-bore arterial cannula can compromise lower-limb perfusion, an antegrade perfusion sheath…
Timing the Repair in Truncus Arteriosus: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis with Reconstructed Time-to-Event Data Comparing Staged Repair and Primary Correction.
This systematic review and meta-analysis compared staged repair (SR) with primary correction (PC) for truncus arteriosus in pediatric patients. Five studies included 534 patients.

Segmental Snare Traction Technique for Helix-Fixed Leadless Pacemaker Implantation Across a Repaired Tricuspid Annulus.
Helix-fixed leadless pacemaker delivery can be challenging after tricuspid annuloplasty with a rigid ring. An 80-year-old woman with prior mitral valve repair, tricuspid annuloplasty (26-mm MC ring), and Maze III…
Outcomes of robotically-assisted aortic valve surgery: A systematic review.
This systematic review examined reported outcomes of robotically assisted aortic valve surgery. It included 26 papers describing 362 cases.
Right intra-atrial haemodialysis catheter insertion via sternotomy with intrathoracic graft placement: A case report.
A patient with haemodialysis access exhaustion had several anomalies of central venous drainage and multiple failed arteriovenous accesses.
