reliable, exclusively in appropriately selected situations. In creation of bypass grafts, durable completeness of revascularization and function of the ITA to the LAD bypass should not be compromised. We would suggest that the balanced bypass flow toward the LAD and the RCA is noticeably important to achieve an entire patency of the Y-graft for three-vessel regions. This study is not conclusive...

Abstract In this article, our primary objective was to investigate the prevalence and etiology of extubation failure (EF) in patients following cardiac surgery for congenital heart disease. Secondarily, we examined association different risk factors with EF. This single-center retrospective study a 27-bed intensive care unit at quaternary children's hospital. All between 0 18 years age who unde...

Between September 2010 and January 2012, four patients in our hospital were observed to have permanent dialysis catheters that adhered to either the SVC or right atrium. The first patient underwent intraoperative fluoroscopy and was scheduled for cardiac surgery. Unfortunately due to metabolic disturbances, the patient's condition deteriorated and she died before surgery.  The second patient un...

Rigorous testing procedures assessed the extent of extrinsic cardiac denervation in three groups of animals subjected to cardiac extirpation and reimplantation (E&R), mediastinal neural ablation (MNA) or thoracic ganglionectomy (BSTG). After E&R, all dogs were completely denervated. Evidence for vagal reinnervation appeared as early as 26 days and for both vagal and sympathetic reinnervation in...

Although abundant evidence of concomitant cardiovascular disease is scattered throughout the literature on osteitis deformans, appreciation of the etiologic relationship between the two diseases has been lacking. This paper shows that cardiovascular disease accompanying extensive osteitis deformans may result from: (1) excessive demand on the heart from increased vascularity of affected bones; ...
