Improved outcomes in CABG patients with atrial fibrillation associated with surgical left atrial appendage exclusion
ConclusionsConcomitant LAA exclusion via an epicardial closure device is associated with reduced CABG mortality, thromboembolic events, and readmissions in patients with pre ‐existing atrial fibrillation.

Toward stroke ‐free coronary surgery: The role of the anaortic off‐pump bypass technique
AbstractSurgical coronary revascularization remains the preferred strategy in a significant portion of patients with coronary artery disease due to superior long ‐term outcomes. However, there is a significant risk of perioperative neurologic injury that has influenced guideline recommendations. These complications occur in 1%–5% of patients, ranging from overt neurologic deficits with permanent disability, to subtle cerebral defects noted on neuroimagin g that may result in slow cognitive and functional decline. The primary mechanism by which these events occur is thromboembolism from manipulation of the ascending aor...

New oral anticoagulants versus warfarin in atrial fibrillation after early post-operative period in patients with bioprosthetic aortic valve
CONCLUSIONS: In real-word, NOACs use overcomes the indications provided by guidelines. This study evidenced that NOACs use in patients who developed AF after bioprosthetic AVR was more effective in prevention of thromboembolism and safe in reduction of major bleeding events compared to warfarin.PMID:33744222 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2021.03.016

Anticoagulation management of postoperative atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery: A systematic review
ConclusionThere is wide practice variation in the uptake, timing of initiation, duration, and choice of OAC for POAF following cardiac surgery. The evidence is largely retrospective and insufficient to assess the efficacy of different OAC strategies. Further studies are warranted to guide clinical practice.

Impact of diverse aortic pathologies on outcomes after transapical transcatheter aortic valve replacement
ConclusionIndependent of underlying AP, the TA ‐TAVR is a safe method and shows very promising early and midterm outcomes in patients with various AP.

Thrombotic complications of superficial endovenous ablation: a contemporary review of thermal and non-thermal techniques
J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino). 2021 Apr 23. doi: 10.23736/S0021-9509.21.11898-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEndovenous ablation has become the preferred means to treat superficial venous insufficiency. Ablative technologies have evolved to include a variety of both thermal and nonthermal techniques. The reported thrombotic complications of endovenous heat induced thrombosis (EHIT) and deep venous thrombosis (DVT) associated with thermal techniques are low (<2% overall). However, the limited data on newer non-thermal technologies suggest these modalities may have thrombotic complication rates upwards of 6%. Additionally,...
