Robotic cardiac surgery for removal of iliac venous stent embolized in the right cardiac chambers: a case report.
Einstein (Sao Paulo)
December 2024
Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein, São Paulo, SP, Brazil.
A 42-year-old female patient with a surgical history of iliac venous angioplasty with stenting developed dyspnea on exertion 9 months later. Chest computed tomography angiography revealed a fractured vascular stent in the right cardiac chamber. Doppler echocardiography confirmed that the stent was anchored by the tricuspid valve, causing mild obstruction of the right ventricular filling.

Objective: Re-do root replacement poses a significant technical challenge, increasing potential risk of morbidity and mortality. This multi-institution study compared outcomes in aortic root replacement stratified by chest surgery and aortic root history.
Methods: A retrospective review by the Western Aortic Collaborative was performed for three different aortic centers for patients who underwent non-emergent root replacement from 2017-2023 with exclusion of patients who underwent more than hemiarch replacement or who presented with acute or hyperacute aortic dissection.
Fulminant respiratory failure due to severe pneumothorax after re-do coronary artery bypass grafting treated with veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

This case report details the management of a 79-year-old man who developed massive postoperative pneumothorax following redo coronary artery bypass grafting due to severe lung adhesions. We successfully treated the patient using veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation without femoral cannulation, allowing for early rehabilitation initiation. Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a reasonable option for cases of severe respiratory failure due to pneumothorax with lung destruction caused by re-sternotomy during re-do cardiac surgery.

Purpose: Ascending aortic pseudoaneurysms are a common phenomenon requiring surgical intervention but can pose high surgical risks in medically complex patients. We report a novel approach to percutaneous closure of ascending aortic pseudoaneurysms using an Amplatzer PFO closure device.
Case Report: We present the case of a 65-year-old male with haemoptysis on a background of multiple cardiac surgeries and chronic kidney disease.
Comparison of robotic and conventional sternotomy in redo mitral valve surgery.

Background/purpose: Redo operation for mitral valve surgery carries higher risks than first time cardiac surgery. The adhesion between sternum and heart, and also the complexity of second time operation make the redo operation more difficult. The robotic surgery carries some benefit in terms of magnification, assisted by the scope view and precise movement of the instruments.
