Usefulness of intraoperative nerve monitoring for giant type AB thymoma combined with an aberrant right subclavian artery: a case report
Abnormal tumor vascularization and escalating tumor size represent two major impediments that make cancer surgery impossible or complicated.
Biomechanical evaluation of aortic regurgitation from cusp prolapse using an ex vivo 3D-printed commissure geometric alignment device
Aortic regurgitation (AR) is one of the most common cardiac valvular diseases, and it is frequently caused by cusp prolapse. However, the precise relationship of commissure position and aortic cusp prolapse wi… Read More
Coil and n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate migration into the stomach after TIPS for gastroesophageal variceal bleeding: a case report and literature review
Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is a well-established therapeutic option for the management of variceal hemorrhage in patients with cirrhosis. The simultaneous migration of the coil and n-but… Read More

Hybrid surgery for blunt aortic injury with rupture: a case report
Blunt thoracic aortic injury is one of the most lethal traumatic injuries. Ruptured cases often result in cardiac arrest before arrival at the hospital, and survival is rare.
Partial Inferior Vena Cava Reconstruction with Cryopreserved Aortic Homograft Following Resection for Malignancy
Vasc Endovascular Surg. 2023 Jan;57(1):79-82. doi: 10.1177/15385744221124297. Epub 2022 Aug 27.
ABSTRACT
Malignant invasion of the inferior vena cava (IVC) often necessitates complete tumor thrombectomy and IVC reconstruction. Bovine pericardial xenografts and prosthetic grafts are frequently used for partial or entire IVC reconstruction with adequate subsequent patency and freedom from thrombosis. Cryopreserved aortic homografts represent an alternative conduit for vena cava replacement with resistance to infection in contaminated fields or following extensive retroperitoneal dissection. Specific reports of aortic homograft use for IVC reconstruction are scarce. Described are 2 cases of cryopreserved aortoiliac artery allograft use for long segment cava patch repair while avoiding extensive caval reconstruction, mobilization and the need for renal vein and hepatic vein re-implantation.

Safety and efficacy of using portable coagulation monitor for INR examination after left-sided mechanical prosthetic valve replacement
Time in therapeutic range (TTR) is an index to assess the effectiveness of anticoagulation and is important to predict the risk of bleeding and thrombosis in patients taking warfarin. In recent years, the port… Read More
Impact of frailty status on clinical and functional outcomes after concomitant valve replacement and bipolar radiofrequency ablation in patients aged 65 years and older
To evaluate the prognostic value of frailty in older recipients of concomitant valve replacement (VR) and bipolar radiofrequency ablation (BRFA), we examined whether clinical and functional outcomes differed b… Read More
