Background: A multicentre European randomized control trial - European Uncomplicated Type B Aortic Repair (EU-TBAR) is being developed to compare pre-emptive thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) with custom-made devices versus conventional optimal medical therapy. The pretrial set-up is confluent on different pillars, including evaluation of 1) European activity, trends, and governance; 2) outcome reporting; and 3) cost evaluation. This article aimed to demonstrate the observational cross-sectional survey results from participating centers and highlight the risk assessment, activity, practices, and governance of uncomplicated type B aortic dissection (uTBAD).

Article Synopsis
  • The study compares outcomes of tricuspid valve surgery performed on a beating heart versus an arrested heart, analyzing data from 204 patients over five years.
  • Patients were divided into two groups, with 103 undergoing surgery using cross-clamping and 101 using a beating-heart technique, while also receiving other cardiac interventions as needed.
  • Results showed that the beating-heart group had shorter recovery times, lower rates of re-exploration and mortality, and improved echocardiography findings at six months post-surgery, suggesting this method is preferable to avoid clamp-induced ischemia.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explored the relationships between histopathological features of carotid body tumors and variables like age, gender, tumor size, and Shamblin classification, as well as factors affecting surgical outcomes such as embolization status and neurological complications.
  • Analyzing 46 past cases, the research recorded an average tumor size of 3.55 cm, a hospital discharge time of approximately 4 days, and noted that 13% experienced neurological complications, with significant correlations found between tumor size and complications.
  • The findings indicate that larger tumor diameters make surgery more challenging and increase complication rates, suggesting that careful tumor removal techniques could help prevent recurrence.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate postoperative left ventricular changes [left ventricular mass (LVM), left ventricular mass index (LVMI), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), patient-prosthesis mismatch (PPM), pulmonary artery pressure (PAP), gradients, and ejection fraction (EF)] according to the valve type used in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement (AVR) due to isolated aortic stenosis.

Methods: A total of 199 patients with isolated AVR due to aortic stenosis between 2010 and 2020 was retrospectively investigated. Four groups were identified according to the valve type used (mechanical, bovine pericardium, porcine and sutureless).

Objective: The aim of the present study was to share the experiences gained from emergency and semiemergency cases of open heart surgery performed during the COVID-19 outbreak in Necmettin Erbakan University Meram Medical Faculty Hospital, which was defined as a pandemic hospital by Turkish Ministry of Health and provided third degree health services.

Materials And Methods: A total of 54 patients were retrospectively analyzed between 23 March and 22 May 2020, who were diagnosed to have aortic dissection, coronary artery disease, and heart valve diseases.

Results: Thirty-two CABG, 12 valve surgery, 6 aortic surgery, 4 CABG + valve surgeries were performed.
