Background: This study was designed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of our modified cuff wrapping Bentall (M-Bentall) procedure, which uses a cuff wrapping technique with remnant aortic root tissue.
Methods: From July 2017 to December 2021, a total of 136 patients met the inclusion criteria for this study. Among them, patients who underwent the modified Bentall procedure using the cuff wrapping technique were included in the M-Bentall group (n=46), while patients who underwent the classic Bentall (C-Bentall) procedure were categorized into the C-Bentall group (n=90).
Objective: We aimed to evaluate the incidence of organ cysts in patients with type A aortic dissection (TAAD) to assess the association between organ cysts and TAAD.
Methods: Between January 2018 and December 2018, all patients with TAAD undergoing aortic surgery at our center were enrolled into the study; patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting at our center were selected as the control group. Baseline differences between the 2 groups were adjusted using propensity-score matching.
Background: We sought to analyze clinical features and surgical results of 10 cases of cardiac myxomas in Carney complex (CNC).
Methods: Between January 2003 and December 2013, 10 patients with cardiac myxomas in CNC underwent surgical resection. Associated cardiac lesions included moderate and severe mitral regurgitation in two cases, and moderate tricuspid regurgitation in one case.
