Sealing the breach: successful surgical management of post-myocardial infarction left ventricular pseudoaneurysm.
Indian J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg

Department of Cardiology, G.B. Pant Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education & Research and associated Maulana Azad Medical College, Room No. 133, First Floor, Academic Block, New Delhi, India.
Left ventricular (LV) pseudoaneurysm, a rare occurrence, develops when a ruptured ventricle is encapsulated by the pericardium or scar tissue. Unlike free intrapericardial rupture, which often results in cardiac tamponade and fatal outcome, there are instances where the cardiac rupture remains contained, forming a pseudoaneurysm and averting immediate tamponade. We describe a 43-year-old male who underwent successful surgical repair of LV rupture following inferior wall myocardial infarction that resulted in the formation of a large pseudoaneurysm.

Background: Cardiac strangulation (CS) from epicardial pacing leads (EPLs) is a rare and potentially lethal mechanical complication associated with epicardial pacemaker (PM) implantation.
Case Summary: We report a case of a 44-year-old-female patient presenting with chest and left shoulder pain in the absence of reported trauma with history of congenital atrioventricular block treated with epicardial PM implantation during the childhood and subsequent transvenous reimplantation over the years. Troponin I resulted within normal values and ECG, transthoracic echocardiography and chest X-ray documented no acute cardiopulmonary findings.
Heterotopic ossification: Current developments and emerging potential therapies.

This review aimed to provide a comprehensive analysis of the etiology, epidemiology, pathology, and conventional treatment of heterotopic ossification (HO), especially emerging potential therapies. HO is the process of ectopic bone formation at non-skeletal sites. HO can be subdivided into two major forms, acquired and hereditary, with acquired HO predominating.

Department of Chemistry, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, USA.
Mechanical bonds arise between molecules that contain interlocked subunits, such as one macrocycle threaded through another. Within polymers, these linkages will confer distinctive mechanical properties and other emergent behaviors, but polymerizations that form mechanical bonds efficiently and use simple monomeric building blocks are rare. In this work, we introduce a solid-state polymerization in which one monomer infiltrates crystals of another to form a macrocycle and mechanical bond at each repeat unit of a two-dimensional (2D) polymer.

A 25-year-old male presented with a ballistic fracture of the right glenoid resulting in > 30% loss of the posterior glenoid articular surface and acute posterior glenohumeral instability that was treated with open reduction internal fixation with iliac crest autograft transfer. There is limited consensus on the operative management of ballistic intra-articular fractures due to the heterogeneity of these injuries. Acute posterior glenohumeral instability secondary to a ballistic fracture is a rare injury pattern.
