Beta-adrenoceptor-mediated responsiveness of human internal mammary artery
The internal mammary artery (IMA) is currently the preferred conduit for myocardial revascularization. However, pre-operative vasospasm and a hypoperfusion state during maximal exercise may limit its use as a bypass graft. The mechanism of spasm has not been clearly defined. Since β-adrenoceptor activation plays a major role in vasorelaxation, the present study was carried out to investigate th...
متن کاملPercutaneous transluminal angioplasty of left internal mammary artery grafts.
stenoses or distal native coronary artery stenoses and angina pectoris. The procedure was technically successful in 10 patients and no major complications occurred. During follow up there was one late death, but all 10 surviving patients showed functional improvement. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty seems to be a safe and effective treatment for stenoses of internal mammary artery grafts....
متن کاملInjection of alcohol to control bleeding from ruptured hepatomas.
Case reports Case I-A 60 year old woman had a laparotomy for severe abdominal pain and shock, at which 2 litres of blood was drained from the peritoneal cavity. The liver was cirrhotic with an extensive nodular tumour encasing the porta hepatis. The tumour had ruptured with brisk bleeding from a 3 cm crater. Absolute alcohol (20 ml) was injected directly into the crater. The area blanched immed...
متن کاملFree internal mammary artery for coronary bypass.
An improved technique of free internal mammary artery (IMA) to ascending aorta anastomosis for coronary bypass is described. A small patch vein with a suitable side branch or branches is interposed, connecting the proximal end of a detached IMA to the ascending aorta. A single or double free IMA alone or in combination with an additional saphenous vein graft was performed in 77 patients. A tota...
متن کاملIdiopathic internal mammary artery aneurysm
Aneurysms of the internal mammary artery are extremely rare, and their presentation and treatment are variable. Since these aneurysms often tend to rupture and cause haemothorax and life-threatening conditions, the knowledge of secure treatment options is indispensable. We here report the case of an idiopathic internal mammary aneurysm in a 46-year-old man. Open surgical resection of the aneury...
