Added value of multimodal computed tomography imaging: analysis of 1994 acute ischaemic strokes
ConclusionOur study shows an association of MCTI use with lower adjusted 12‐month mortality, better identification of the stroke mechanism and no signs of harm.

A Serious Diagnosis Lacking Common Symptoms
​BY JENNIFER TUONG; IVAN KHARCHENKO; JEAN LUC AGARD; & AHMED RAZIUDDIN, MDA 65-year-old man who had HIV well-controlled with highly active antiretroviral therapy, hypertension, sciatica, and restless leg syndrome presented to the emergency department with left leg pain. He also had had chemotherapy and radiation for anal cancer. The patient said the pain had started 45 minutes earlier when he was sitting on the toilet.He described the pain as sore in quality and 10/10 on the pain scale. He reported that it had started in his lower back and radiated to his left leg. He said he had had no trauma or weakness to the regi...

The impact of unilateral versus bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion on surgical outcomes after aortic arch replacement: A propensity-matched analysis
Conclusions: Using unilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion in a pressure-controlled manner during mild systemic hypothermia is a safe protection strategy in elective aortic arch surgery, associated with similar morbidity and mortality in comparison with bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion, even if total arch replacement is required. Bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion reveals a trend of higher incidence of stroke, probably due to manipulation on the arch vessels.

Unilateral Versus Bilateral Cerebral Perfusion for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection
Conclusions As one of the largest single-center studies of the efficacy of u-ACP and b-ACP in patients with type A aortic dissection, operative mortality, stroke, temporary neurologic dysfunction, and renal failure rates were similar in both. In this intrinsically complex disease, survival is the most important outcome; u-ACP may provide cardiac surgeons with valuable technical simplicity during challenging procedures, and b-ACP may be justified for circulatory arrest times of more than 30 minutes.

Deep Hypothermia + Retrograde Cerebral Perfusion vs. Moderate Hypothermia + Antegrade Cerebral Perfusion for Arch Surgery
ConclusionsAlthough there was no significant difference in clinically evident neurologic injury, this pilot study suggests that MHCA+ACP may be associated with a higher incidence of radiographic neurologic injury than DHCA+RCP in patients undergoing elective hemiarch replacement.

Sex-Related Differences in Patients Undergoing Thoracic Aortic Surgery: Evidence from the Canadian Thoracic Aortic Collaborative.
CONCLUSIONS: Women experience worse outcomes following thoracic aortic surgery with hypothermic circulatory arrest. Further investigation is required to better delineate which measures may reduce sex-related outcome differences following complex aortic surgery. PMID: 30755026 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Deep Hypothermia With Retrograde Cerebral Perfusion Versus Moderate Hypothermia With Antegrade Cerebral Perfusion for Arch Surgery
ConclusionsAlthough there was no significant difference in clinically evident neurologic injury, this pilot study suggests that MHCA+ACP may be associated with a higher incidence of radiographic neurologic injury than DHCA+RCP in patients undergoing elective hemiarch replacement.

Branch-first continuous perfusion aortic arch replacement. Insight into our results
CONCLUSIONS: BF-CPAR is safe and adds to the armamentarium of Aortic Arch Repair. In elective and uncomplicated acute-dissection cases, it has no mortality and low stroke (1.9%), and vital organ dysfunction risk. Its results which are comparable to many of the best currently reported series, is driven by avoidance of cerebral circulatory arrest and reduction of cardiac and visceral ischemic time.PMID:35238522 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.22.12272-X
