A case of anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery in a patient with the origin of the coronary opposite to the aorta is reported. Between many surgical options we conclude to reestablish a double coronary system reconnecting the coronary through a conduit created with a pulmonary wall baffle and an autologous pericardial patch.

The strategy for the management of adult patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) often represents a challenge for cardiac surgeons and cardiologists due to complex anatomy, wide range of clinical presentations, and a high-risk profile. However, hybrid approach may represent an attractive solution. We report three cases of adult patients previously operated for CHD and recently treated with...

In order to establish an echocardiographic profile of patients with simple transposition after Mustard's operation, we examined the M-mode records of 10 patients who were found to be free of significant abnormalities at follow-up cardiac catheterization. When compared with established normals, right ventricular wall thicknesses and cavity dimensions were increased, while left ventricular wall t...

A micro-channel heat exchanger reactor with different micro-baffle shapes has been studied numerically. Governing equations were solved base on the finite volume method with FLUENT software. In upper section, oxidation reaction of methanol was occurred and in lower section, steam reforming of methanol was done. Two sections were separated with solid part which played as heat exchanger and trans...

In marine storage and transportation, the sloshing of liquid oxygen disturbs thermodynamic equilibrium induces stress on tank walls. Numerous problems are associated with mechanism demand a detailed investigation. this study, numerical model is developed by coupling Eulerian framework algebraic interface area density (AIAD) method while considering interphase drag force to investigate thermal b...

Sloshing refers to a certain kind of fluid movement that changes as it progresses. It possesses properties are both nonlinear and exceedingly unpredictable, these affect the tank wall. This effect may lead structural wear, which in turn can cause fail. Benzene gasoil liquids used test sloshing liquid accompanying pressure on wall caused by baffles partially full tanks. To attain this, modeling ...
