متن کاملInhaled nitric oxide for acute right-ventricular dysfunction after extrapleural pneumonectomy.
Increased pulmonary vascular pressure and decreased right-ventricular performance may occur following pneumonectomy. Inhaled nitric oxide decreases right-ventricular afterload and improves cardiac index by selectively decreasing pulmonary vascular resistance without causing systemic hypotension. We report the use of inhaled nitric oxide in a patient with acute right-ventricular dysfunction afte...
متن کاملVideo-atlas of radical pleurectomy for malignant pleural mesothelioma.
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive malignancy arising from the mesothelial surfaces of the pleura. Macroscopic complete resection (MCR) seems to have the greatest impact on survival in surgery-based multimodality treatment protocols (1). Depending on the surgical preference and intraoperative findings, extrapleural pneumonectomy (EPP) or aggressive radical pleurectomy (RP) or...
