The use of apical suction devices has been well described for maintaining satisfactory haemodynamics during off-pump surgical coronary revascularization. Its expanded use has been described in a few other situations. We describe here a case of recurrent coarctation where an extra-anatomic ascending to descending thoracic aorta bypass graft was constructed using cardiopulmonary bypass without arresting the heart, and access and exposure were facilitated by the use of an apical suction device.

Computational fluid dynamics analysis of conventional irrigation and the combination with adjuvant suction cannulas in human molars with isthmus communication.

Article Synopsis
- This study analyzed the effectiveness of traditional irrigation methods using a specially designed positive pressure side-vented needle and various suction cannulas for treating mandibles with two root canals.
- Micro-CT scans enabled detailed computational models to be created, allowing for the assessment of flow patterns, velocities, and pressures during irrigation.
- Results indicated that using suction cannulas significantly enhanced fluid flow and wall shear stress in the complex root structures, especially in areas that conventional methods struggled to reach.
Failed Regenerative Endodontic Case Treated by Modified Aspiration-irrigation Technique and Apexification.

Department of Endodontics, University Dental Hospital, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Aim: This report addresses the management of a large persistent discharging lesion in an 11-year-old boy. The report describes the use of aspiration-irrigation technique for the management of immature necrotic tooth with persistent discharge after a failed regenerative procedure.
Background: Regenerative endodontics aim to provide an increase in root canal width, length, and in apical closure.

Department of Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, College of Dentistry, King Saud University, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Aim: The aim of the current research was to appraise the effectiveness of different radicular canal irrigant solutions on the elimination of the smear layer in deciduous teeth.
Materials And Methods: A total of 60 fit deciduous teeth that were subjected to extraction for a variety of curative reasons were employed in this research. Every sample tooth was subjected to decoronation at the CEJ employing a carborundum disk.
Normative change with gestation in fetal intraventricular pressure difference with color M-mode Doppler echocardiography.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.
Aim: The intraventricular pressure difference (IVPD) is the pressure difference in early diastole from the base to the apex of the ventricle. It is a useful marker for evaluating diastolic function because of its role as a suction force. This study investigated the changes in total and segmental IVPDs in normal fetuses throughout gestation to obtain normative data equations.
