Concomitant intra-aortic balloon pump and veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock
Int J Artif Organs. 2023 Apr 26:3913988231170890. doi: 10.1177/03913988231170890. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe aimed to compare the outcomes of ECMO with and without IABP for postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock. The study included 103 patients who needed ECMO for postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock. Patients were grouped according to the use of IABP into ECMO without IABP (n = 43) and ECMO with IABP (n = 60). The study endpoints were hospital complications, successful weaning, and survival. Patients with IABP had lower preoperative ejection fraction (p = 0.002). There was no difference in stroke (p = 0.97), limb ischemic (p ...

Multiple cerebral infarction linked to underlying cancer: a review of Trousseau syndrome-related cerebral infarction
Br J Hosp Med (Lond). 2021 May 2;82(5):1-7. doi: 10.12968/hmed.2020.0696. Epub 2021 May 26.ABSTRACTTrousseau syndrome is a cancer-associated hypercoagulative state leading to venous or arterial thromboembolic events. Cerebral infarction is the most common result of arterial embolism and the pathogenesis is complicated, mainly associated with hypercoagulation and non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis. On magnetic resonance imaging, multiple lesions are dispersed in more than two territories of the brain, often simultaneously involving the bilateral anterior and posterior circulation. Elevated plasma levels of D-dimer and fi...
