Redo Mitral Valve Surgery Via a Right Thoracotomy with Heart-Lung Machine: Presentation of Two Cases
The rate of redo surgeries are increasing on account of previously performed coronary artery bypass graft surgeries, aortic/ mitral valve replacement surgeries due to valve stenosis/ regurgitation, mitral valve repair for ischemic mitral regurgitation, the aging in the population, mechanical valve thrombosis and wearing out of the mechanical valves.Resternotomy, anterolateral right thoracotomy ...
متن کامل[Azygos vein aneurysm forming a mediastinal mass].
Aneurysm of the azygos vein is a rare cause of mediastinal mass that is normally detected radiologically in asymptomatic patients. In some cases a diagnosis is made by noninvasive methods, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance. However, in the present case imaging revealed what appeared to be a solid mass. When the mass had been excised by thoracotomy, the histopathologic diagnosis...
متن کامل[Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement Via Right Mini-thoracotomy].
Here we demonstrate our surgical procedure of minimally invasive aortic valve replacement through right anterolateral mini-thoracotomy. Preoperative evaluation of the whole aorta by contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan is important to prevent cerebrovascular complications. The patient is set in a mild left lateral decubitus position. A skin incision is made along the anterior axillary lin...
متن کاملAzygos Vein Aneurysm - A Case for Elective Resection by Video-assisted Thoracic Surgery
An azygos vein aneurysm is a very rare cause of a posterior mediastinal mass. Once the diagnosis has been confirmed, no treatment is usually required. However, the aneurysm can thrombose, and this may lead pulmonary thromboembolism, or the aneurysm may rupture. In these instances, the excision of the mass is recommended. Video-assisted thoracic surgery techniques have considerably improved. If ...
متن کاملOutcomes of aortic valve and concomitant ascending aorta replacement performed via a minimally invasive right thoracotomy approach.
OBJECTIVE Replacement of the aortic valve with concomitant replacement of the ascending aorta performed via a minimally invasive right anterior thoracotomy approach has not been reported. We evaluated the feasibility and safety of this procedure. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed all minimally invasive aortic valve replacements (AVRs) with concomitant replacement of the ascending aorta perf...
