Outcome of Pericardiectomy for Constrictive Pericarditis in Japan: A Nationwide Outcome Study.
CONCLUSIONS: Pericardiectomy is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Careful consideration should be given to these risk factors in the process of patient selection and perioperative management. PMID: 23791164 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

126 * extra-anatomic revascularisation for distal occlusion of the left or right common carotid artery in acute type a aortic dissection with cerebral malperfusion
Conclusion: Extra-anatomic bypass for distal LCCA or RCCA occlusion presents a valuable bail-out technique to restore cerebral perfusion during AADA repair, potentially reducing the increased incidence of neurological complications in patients with cerebral malperfusion.

Fast-track anesthesia in lateral mini-thoracotomy for transapical transcatheter valve implantation
CONCLUSIONS: Fast-track anesthesia using paravertebral-blockade for transcatheter transapical valve replacement in high-risk patients is a possible anesthetic approach. An effective PVB, in addition to a double-lumen laryngeal mask, provide an alternative strategy to conventional general anesthesia. These promising results could encourage further consideration of this approach in similar cardiac surgery patients.PMID:34527324 | PMC:PMC8411149 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-21-751
