Perioperative management of intramyocardial hydatid cyst with off-pump technique.
We present a case report of an asymptomatic case of off-pump removal of intramyocardial hydatid cyst. A 21-year-old male presented asymptomatically and was diagnosed with a hydatid cyst incidentally during a regular checkup. Echocardiography and cardiac computed tomography angiography images demonstrated an intramyocardial hydatid cyst on the lateral aspect of the left ventricle with slight extension over the anterior and posterior regions. Important aspects of diagnosis and management specific to cardiac hydatid cyst along with the review of literature have been discussed. PMID: 30648688 [PubMed - in process]

Comparing Methods for Cardiac Output: Intraoperatively Doppler-Derived Cardiac Output Measured With 3-Dimensional Echocardiography Is Not Interchangeable With Cardiac Output by Pulmonary Catheter Thermodilution.
CONCLUSIONS: Despite low bias, the wide limits of agreement of Doppler-derived CO by 3D TEE compared to CO by thermodilution will limit clinical application and can therefore not be considered interchangeable with CO obtained by thermodilution. The lack of agreement is not explained by lack of agreement of the 3D technique. PMID: 29324489 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The Anesthetic Management of Interventional Procedures for Acute Ischemic Stroke
Abstract Acute ischemic stroke is a medical emergency. Expedient reperfusion is a key component of treatment and improves the odds for a good outcome. Anesthesiologists play an important role in the peri-procedural management of cerebral revascularization procedures in patients with acute ischemic stroke. We review critical concepts and provide evidence-based recommendations, when available, for the management of patients having angiographic procedures to treat acute ischemic stroke.

Do cardiac arrest centres save more lives?
Publication date: Available online 13 May 2016 Source:Trends in Anaesthesia and Critical Care Author(s): Eldar Søreide, Michael Busch During the last 15 years post resuscitation care after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has evolved into something quite complicated and multifaceted. Still, in most countries post resuscitation care is not centralised to specialised hospitals. In other acute and life-threatening diseases like neuro-trauma, acute myocardial infarction and stroke specialised hospital care has now become standard practise. In this review, we present the historic changes in post resuscitation care wit...

Bilateral carotid artery dissection in a severe preeclamptic setting: An unusual cause of postpartum headache.
Abstract A 30-year-old woman with severe preeclampsia presented at 27weeks of amenorrhea with left headache, neck pain, blurred vision and numbness of left hemiface that resolved spontaneously within 2hours. A week later, hypertension remained poorly controlled despite combination of nicardipine and labetalol intravenous therapy; an urgent caesarean section was eventually performed due to onset of HELLP syndrome. At day 5 postpartum, the patient had a Horner syndrome with right ipsilateral disabling tinnitus. A CT-angiography of supra-aortic trunks was performed urgently; it showed a bilateral carotid arterial dis...
