Compartmentalization of the Inflammatory Response in the Pericardial Cavity in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery.
Int J Mol Sci

Division of Cardiac Surgery, University Hospital, Department of Surgery, University of Santiago de Compostela, 15706 Santiago de Compostela, Spain.
The systemic inflammatory response after cardiopulmonary bypass has been widely studied. However, there is a paucity of studies that focus on the local inflammatory changes that occur in the pericardial cavity. The purpose of this study is to assess the inflammatory mediators in the pericardial fluid of patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

: Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a common condition observed in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for the treatment of aortic stenosis (AS). However, the impact of TAVI on MR outcomes and the factors predicting MR improvement remains uncertain. Understanding these predictors can enhance patient management and guide clinical decisions.

: This study aims to assess the postoperative outcomes and complications of sutureless and sutured aortic valve replacement in patients with infective endocarditis. : A total of 58 patients who underwent redo aortic valve replacement for bacterial or non-bacterial endocarditis between January 2018 and March 2023 were included in our study. Surgical procedures were performed through a full median sternotomy due to redo cases and to provide optimal access.

: Valve-sparing root replacement surgery is an alternative strategy for patients with aortic regurgitation with or without aortic root enlargement. A detailed understanding of the mechanisms of regurgitation and the morphology of the aortic root would be beneficial for predicting the feasibility and success of valve-sparing surgery. This is an exploratory study of the measurement of geometric height in 3D transesophageal echocardiography as a predictor of valve-sparing root replacement for aortic regurgitation.

This study aimed to analyze the outcomes and challenges associated with surgical redo procedures following aortic valve replacement for acute infective endocarditis. While transcatheter aortic valve implantation is growing in terms of its utilization for degenerative bioprostheses failure, valve-in-valve procedures are limited in acute aortic endocarditis. Surgical interventions for aortic prosthesis endocarditis carry a significant risk, with a higher mortality and morbidity, often requiring concomitant complex procedures.
