Lactic acidosis (LA) is characterized by accumulation of lactate in the body, and it may detrimentally affect homeostasis. Perioperative LA is rarely seen, here we presented 2 cases of patients suffered with temporary hyperlactataemia during partial hepatectomy, intended to emphasize that prolonged hypovolemia condition caused by controlled low central venous pressure, and overused hepatic vascular occlusion technique during parenchymal resection of hepatic surgery may seriously impact on the internal environment of patients. And we also discussed how to well manage long-time hepatectomy to prevent LA from occurring and to treat it appropriately.

Introduction And Objectives: To study the prognostic value of serum lactate in patients under temporary preoperative mechanical circulatory support who underwent urgent heart transplant.

Methods: We conducted a subanalysis of a Spanish multicenter registry recording data on patients under temporary mechanical circulatory support listed for highly urgent heart transplant from 2010 to 2015. Participants selected for the present study were those who received a transplant and who had known preoperative serum lactate levels.

Prophylactic administration of zidovudine (ZDV) to mother-child pairs reduces HIV transmission. ZDV can impair mitochondrial (mt) DNA polymerase gamma, leading to mtDNA depletion. Signs of mitochondrial dysfunction have been observed in a few children with prenatal exposure to nucleoside analogues, although no mtDNA depletion was demonstrated.
