The authors examined 35 patients suffering from ischemic heart disease with signs of stage-I circulatory insufficiency. It was established that the hemorheological values were distinctly increased. This increase was associated with an increase of the general peripheral resistance.

Objectives: Patients with advanced chronic kidney disease suffer from hypertension, and kidney transplantation (KT) has potential to induce hypertension resolution. We hypothesized that hypertension resolution after KT is associated with better KT outcomes.

Methods: We identified KT recipients (2006-2015) who had pretransplant hypertension.

Background: Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by variants in the gene. It is associated with periodic paralysis, dysmorphic features and cardiac arrhythmias. The syndrome exhibits incomplete penetrance, leading to a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations, making diagnosis challenging.

A 67-year-old man with medical history of ischemic cardiomyopathy with stage D heart failure and infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm underwent implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). Three months after the procedure, he presented with unrelenting back pain and a rapidly increased in size aneurysm. The patient underwent urgent endovascular aneurysm repair with uncomplicated recovery.

Arch Bare Metal Stent Grafting in Type I Aortic Dissections After Hemiarch Repair.

Ann Thorac Surg Short Rep

December 2024

Division of Cardiac Surgery, Inova Heart and Vascular Institute, Inova Health Systems, Falls Church, Virginia.

Background: DeBakey type I aortic dissections (AD) are most frequently treated with hemiarch repair. A subset of patients demonstrates persistent distal end-organ ischemia secondary to persistent true lumen (TL) compression. We describe the use of bare metal stent grafting across the residual arch dissection with the Zenith Dissection Endovascular Stent (ZDES, Cook Medical) in 7 patients with type I AD that was repaired in a hemiarch configuration with a compromised distal TL and organ malperfusion.

This report describes the successful treatment of persistent ventricular tachycardia in a 66-year-old patient with ischemic cardiomyopathy during left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. Recurrent episodes of ventricular tachycardia led to cardiac decompensation necessitating LVAD implantation. After opening the left ventricle, an AtriCure Isolator Synergy OLL2 radiofrequency clamp was used to perform 4 sets of transmural lesions.
