Thymectomy through lateralized partial sternotomy
A young woman with nonthymomic myasthenia gravis with failure of medical treatment was offered thymectomy through partial sternotomy. Shifting of vertical arm of "L" incision laterally avoids fracture of opposite sternal flange and provides better sternal stability postoperatively.
متن کاملDavid procedure through an upper partial sternotomy.
A 47-year-old female patient presented with congestive heart failure [New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III]. A coronary angiogram showed calcified coronary arteries without any significant stenosis. Echocardiography showed a tricuspid aortic valve with grade III aortic insufficiency. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the thorax showed an aneurysm of the aortic root and the ascending aor...
متن کاملNeurophysiological monitoring during thoracoabdominal aortic endovascular stent graft implantation.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the benefit of neurophysiological monitoring during thoracic and thoracoabdominal endovascular stent graft implantation. METHODS The spinal cords of 21 patients undergoing endovascular stent graft implantation on the thoracic and thoracoabdominal aorta were monitored with transcranial motor-evoked potentials (tcMEP) and somatosensory-evoked pote...
متن کاملOpen stent graft repair with upper-half Sternotomy for blunt thoracic aortic injury: a case report
BACKGROUND Thoracic endovascular aortic repair is now widely applied to the treatment of blunt aortic injury. However, its long-term outcomes remain unclear. Endoleakage and migration might occur in the long term, especially when younger patients undergo endovascular aortic repair. In open stent grafting, the proximal end of the open stent graft is directly sutured to the native aorta, which ma...
متن کاملSafety, Efficacy and Clinical Outcome of Direct Stent Implantation
Conventional methods of stenting require predilatation, which potentially increase vessel wall injury and cost of the procedure. In this study, the safety and efficacy of direct AVE-S7 (Medtronic-USA) stent placement were evaluated in 100 patients. Quantitative coronary angiography was performed at the baseline and post-stent. Clinical follow-up was done up to 9 months. In 100 patients (76 male...
