Aortic Valve Plasty for Coexistence of Discrete Subvalvular Aortic Stenosis and Quadricuspid Aortic Valve: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Cardiovascular Surgery, Ayase Heart Hospital, Tokyo, JPN.
Subvalvular aortic stenosis typically manifests at a young age and rarely presents in adulthood. It may cause left ventricular outflow tract stenosis, which requires surgical treatment in severe cases. The coexistence of discrete subvalvular aortic stenosis and quadricuspid aortic valve is a highly unusual finding.

The VACTERL (vertebral defects, anal atresia, cardiac defects, tracheoesophageal fistula, renal anomalies, and limb abnormalities) association represents an enigmatic syndrome requiring further study. This report describes a full-term neonate born to a multiparous woman who was found, upon further examination, to have multiple congenital abnormalities, including a bicuspid aortic valve, patent foramen ovale, tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF), asymmetric crying facies, microphallus, and a single inguinal testis. The discussion explores environmental and genetic factors that may contribute to this association, as well as similar conditions, such as CHARGE (coloboma, heart defects, choanal atresia, growth retardation, genital abnormalities, and ear abnormalities) syndrome.

Background: Alterations in cellular metabolism affect cancer survival and can manifest in metrics of body composition. We investigated the effects of various body composition metrics on survival in patients with glioblastoma (GBM).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients who had an abdominal and pelvic computed tomography (CT) scan performed within 1 month of diagnosis of GBM (178 participants, 102 males, 76 females, median age: 62.
CAS-OPCABG vs OPCABG-alone in patients with asymptomatic carotid Stenosis: Multi-center experience.
Int J Cardiol Heart Vasc
February 2025
Department of Cardiac Surgery, Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
Objective: The objective was to evaluate the relationship between carotid stenting and off-pump coronary artery grafting (CAS-OPCABG) and OPCABG only in patients with asymptomatic severe carotid stenosis.
Methods: This study retrospectively included 669 patients with asymptomatic severe carotid artery stenosis who underwent OPCABG at multiple centers. After propensity score matching for baseline characteristics, the study compared two groups of patients with clinical data, early and midterm death, stroke, and myocardial infarction (MI).
Complete Resection of Aorticopulmonary Paraganglioma With Reconstruction in a Pediatric Patient.
Ann Thorac Surg Short Rep
September 2024
Division of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Children's Heart Institute, Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston McGovern Medical School, Houston, Texas.
Aorticopulmonary paragangliomas are exceedingly rare tumors in pediatric populations. Complete surgical resection is the only curative treatment. However, resection is challenging due to the vascularity of paragangliomas and their close relationship with the great vessels.
