A Case of Aortic Strain due to Spring Back Force by Stent Graft 3 Years after Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair.

A 79-year-old man underwent 1-debranched thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for a saccular aneurysm of the distal arch of the aorta. Computed tomography performed 3 years after surgery revealed a significant displacement of the distal side of the stent graft and severe deformity due to displacement of the aorta. There were no obvious findings after aortic dissection.

[Giant Left Ventricular Aneurysm After Double Patch Closure of Ventricular Septal Perforation Through Right Ventriculotomy].

A 66-year-old man. He had myocardial infarction due to occlusion of the left anterior descending branch, which was subsequently complicated by ventricular septal perforation. Ventricular septal perforation was repaired through right ventricle incision, applying double patches for closure, and injecting glue between the patches.

Right heart failure caused by direct pressure of distal arch aneurysm.

We report a rare case of right heart failure caused by distal aortic aneurysm. Although aortopulmonary fistula is a common complication of giant aortic arch aneurysm, right heart failure caused by mechanical pressure by aneurysm is very rare. A 79-year-old female patient presented dyspnea.

[Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair Via Internal Iliac Artery Conduit].

A 77-year-old man with a history of stent implantation in the right common iliac artery(CIA) and the left external iliac artery(EIA) was admitted to our hospital for a rapid growth of an aneurysm( max 53 mm) at Th11 level of the descending aorta. Although thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) was required, there were many problems about access rout. The infrarenal abdominal aorta and the left EIA were severely calcified, and the lumens of the right CIA stent(5.

[Cor Triatriatum Diagnosed in Adulthood;Report of a Case].

A 64-years-old man had cor triatriatum (Lucas-Schmidt type I A) with severe mitral regurgitation and atrial fibrillation. We perfomed resection of the anomalous septum between the accessory chamber and left atrium, and conducted mitral annuloplasty and maze procedure. Arrhythmia were not encountered after surgery.

[Two-staged Hybrid Repair for Extensive Aortic Aneurysm;Report of a Case].

A 74-year-old woman progressed to extensive aortic aneurysm after 2 years and 6 months from onset of type B dissection. A computed tomography scan revealed aortic aneurysm from ascending aorta to Th12 level of descending aorta. Her appearance was very frailty.

[Pulmonary aspergillosis associated with empyema due to Eikenella corrodens].

A 74-year-old female had previously undergone a left upper lobectomy and received radiotherapy for squamous cell carcinoma of the lung in 2002. She was admitted to our hospital because of left pulmonary aspergillosis in 2011. We performed left completion pneumonectomy and decortications.

[Extended total arch replacement with coronary artery bypass grafting( CABG) via left thoracotomy;report of a case].

The operative procedure of extensive aortic aneurysm with ischemic coronary artery disease is controversial. We report a case of arch and descending thoracic aortic aneurysm replacement with coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG)via left thoracotomy. A 70-year-old man followed up by hepatic disease was diagnosed with expanding aortic thoracic aneurysm at the other hospital.
