Transcatheter vs Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Medicare Beneficiaries with Aortic Stenosis and Coronary Artery Disease.
Ann Thorac Surg

Department of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery, West Virginia University, Morgantown, WV.
Background: As percutaneous therapeutic options expand, the optimal management of severe aortic stenosis (AS) and concomitant coronary artery disease (CAD) is being questioned between coronary artery bypass grafting and surgical aortic valve replacement (CABG+SAVR) versus percutaneous coronary intervention and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (PCI+TAVR). We sought to compare perioperative and longitudinal risk-adjusted outcomes between patients undergoing CABG+SAVR versus PCI+TAVR.
Methods: Using the United States Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services inpatient claims database, we evaluated all patient age 65 and older with AS and CAD undergoing CABG+SAVR or PCI+TAVR (2018-2022).
: EnBloc resections of bone tumors of the spine are very demanding as the target to achieve a tumor-free margin specimen (sometimes impossible due to the extracompartimental tumor extension) is sometimes conflicting with the integrity of neurological functions and spine stability. : The surgical treatment of a huge multi-level chordoma of the thoracic spine with unusual extension is reported. Anteriorly, the tumor widely invaded the mediastinum and displaced the aorta; on the left side, it expanded in the subpleuric region; posteriorly, it was uncommonly distant 13 mm from the posterior wall.

Department of Radiology, University of Michigan, 1500 E Medical Center Drive, CVC 5581, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA.
Aims: Aortic wall stiffening in ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm (aTAA) is common. However, the spatial and temporal relationships between stiffness, aortic size, and growth in aTAA remain unclear.
Methods And Results: In this single-centre retrospective study, we utilized vascular deformation mapping to extract multi-directional aortic motion, aortic distensibility, and aortic growth in a multi-planar fashion from multi-phasic ECG-gated computed tomography angiograms.
Optimising deformity correction: a retrospective comparative analysis of two techniques in high magnitude curves in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Asian Spine J
December 2024
Department of Spine Surgery, Bombay Hospital and Medical Research Centre, Mumbai, India.
Study Design: A retrospective comparative study.
Purpose: To validate the hypothesis that a combination of multilevel Ponte osteotomy (PO) with intraoperative traction (IOT) results in a better correction than IOT alone in high-magnitude curves in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and does not possess an attributable risk of neurological injury.
Overview Of Literature: On a comprehensive review of the literature, the choice of technique adopted for curves between 65° and 100° remains controversial with no major consensus favoring one technique over the other.
Complications and Cost in Open Versus Endoscopic Lumbar Decompression: A Database Study.
Clin Spine Surg
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia.
Study Design: A retrospective database study.
Objective: To compare complications and costs associated with endoscopic and open lumbar decompression on a large scale.
Background: Though open lumbar decompression is considered the gold standard, endoscopic procedures are on the rise.
