A 60-year-old man with cystic fibrosis, mediastinal shift and end-stage kidney disease underwent a heart-lung-kidney transplantation. His explanted heart was used for a domino heart transplantation. This case showed an excellent outcome, even with high preoperative acuity requiring veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and continuous veno-venous haemodialysis.

Heart valve replacement in pediatric cardiothoracic surgery poses problems because conventional heart valve implants do not have the ability to grow. This mandates serial reoperations for implant exchanges until an adult size implant can fit. Partial heart transplantation eliminates these reoperations because the transplanted valves grow.

Fatal opioid overdoses in the United States have nearly tripled during the past decade, with greater than 92% involving a synthetic opioid like fentanyl. Fentanyl potently activates the μ-opioid receptor to induce both analgesia and respiratory depression. The danger of illicit fentanyl has recently been exacerbated by adulteration with xylazine, an α2-adrenergic receptor agonist typically used as a veterinary anesthetic.

For patients with end-stage heart disease and borderline hemodynamics, high human leukocyte antigen allosensitization presents a barrier to heart transplantation in a timely manner. Conventional desensitization protocols are inadequate in this context due to time constraints and for the most highly reactive immunologically. We previously reported performing heart after liver transplant with domino liver transplant on a single patient without liver disease.

Background: Foot complications are common in people with diabetes mellitus (DM), leading to increased health care utilization, heightened mortality risk, and notable recurrence rates even after treatment. This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the impact of repeated occurrence of DM-related foot complications on the risk of all-cause mortality and to identify the potential risk factors associated with repeated events.
Methods: People with DM admitted with foot complications (ulcer, skin and soft tissue infection, or osteomyelitis) from 2012 to 2014 were identified from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database, with a 3-year follow-up for repeated events.
