چکیده
We report a case of combined acute and chronic dissection limited to the pulmonary autograft 10 years after a Ross procedure, managed by replacement with a stentless porcine bioprosthesis. Implications for timing and technique of reintervention for pulmonary autograft dilatation are discussed.

Successful staged operation for acute aortic dissection and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.
We describe surgical treatment for a patient with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension who developed acute type A aortic dissection. Acute aortic dissection is a life-threatening disease and must be operated emergently, and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension can be treated only by pulmonary endarterectomy. We performed a staged procedure consisting of hemiarch replacement wi...
متن کاملCOMPARISON OF THE ACUTE BRONCHO DILATING EFFECTS OF INHALED IPRATROPIUM BROMIDE AND SALBUTAMOL IN PATIENTS WI TH CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISE ASE
Forty-five patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were studied to compare the acute effects of ipratropium bromide (60 µg), salbutamol (300 µg) and placebo (3 puffs) on the forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV 1) and forced vital capacity (PVC). Ipratropium bromide produced a significantly greater improvement than salbutamol in both FEV1 and FVC at 15,60 and 180 minutes afte...
متن کاملEarly Effectiveness of Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation on Right Ventricular Function in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Subjects with Acute Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure
Introduction: Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) has become an integral tool in the management of acute hypercapnic respiratory failure (AHRF) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study was performed to evaluate the early effects of NIPPV on pulmonary artery pressure (PAP), serum N-terminal pro BNP (NT-proBNP), and ventilatory parameters in the COPD patients with...

Acute aortic dissection is a common disease caused by primary tear in the aortic intima or rupture of vasa vasorum. Every year 5-30 per million are affected by that. Untreated aortic dissection (dissecting aortic aneurysm) carries a high mortality rate. More than 90% of acute dissections present with acute pain in chest or back or both. Aortic dissection may mimic other more common conditions...
متن کاملPulmonary artery dissection: an emerging cardiovascular complication in surviving patients with chronic pulmonary hypertension.
Pulmonary arterial dissection is an extremely rare and usually lethal complication of chronic pulmonary hypertension. The condition usually manifests as cardiogenic shock or sudden death and is therefore typically diagnosed at postmortem examination rather than during life. However, recent isolated reports have described pulmonary artery dissection in surviving patients. The first case of pulmo...
