Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Saga University, Saga, JPN.
Background The effect of surgeons' years of experience on the outcomes of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) repair has not yet been studied. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the surgeon's years in practice and the outcomes of ATAAD repair. Methods Surgical records of ATAAD repairs performed at Saga University Hospital between 2004 and 2020 were reviewed.

The lipid metabolizing enzyme 12/15 lipoxygenase (12/15LOX) induces proinflammatory responses that may increase cardiovascular and renal complications after cardiac insult. To define the role of 12/15LOX, 8-12-week-old male C57BL/6J wild-type (WT; = 49) and 12/15LOX mice ( = 50) were subject to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) and monitored for 7, 28, and 56 days (d) post-TAC. Compared with WT, 12/15LOX mice experienced less left ventricle (LV) dysfunction with limited LV hypertrophy and lung edema post-TAC.

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Fujian Heart Medical Center, Union Hospital, Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, Fujian, China.
BACKGROUND Acute intramural hematoma (IMH) of the ascending thoracic aorta and aortic arch is a life-threatening condition, particularly in elderly patients with comorbidities, due to its risk of progression and rupture. Unlike aortic dissection, IMH lacks an intimal tear, influencing both clinical presentation and treatment strategy. This report describes a 74-year-old hypertensive woman with type A IMH and a penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer (PAU), managed with a hybrid surgical approach that combines external Dacron wrapping of the ascending aorta and endovascular stenting of the aortic arch with in-situ fenestration of the supra-aortic arteries.

Department of Pediatric Cardiac Center, Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, 100029, China.
Background: An effective prognostic nomogram to predict the prognosis for supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS) patients is lacking.
Methods: A multi-center retrospective study of consecutive SVAS patients with surgery between 2002 and 2020 was conducted. Patients underwent McGoon repairs, Doty repairs, and other repairs.
Can aortic valve calcium score predict a need for permanent pacemaker implantation after transcatheter aortic valve implantation?

Department of Cardiology, Inserm U1096, Univ Rouen Normandie, CHU Rouen, Rouen, France
Introduction: Conductive disturbances requiring permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation remain a major concern after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Aims: To assess the impact of aortic valve calcium score (AVCS) on conductive disturbances requiring PPM after TAVI.
Methods: All patients who underwent TAVI with accessible AVCS from the preprocedural CT scan report were included in this retrospective single-centre study.
