Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is commonly used to fragment renal calculi. This treatment modality is considered safe with minimal complications. We report a case of massive retroperitoneal hematoma following extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy in a patient with no comorbidity and normal coagulation parameters. Patient was managed conservatively and had excellent recovery with normal renal function.

Hemodynamic stabilization is crucial in managing acute cardiac events, where compromised blood flow can lead to severe complications and increased mortality. Conditions like decompensated heart failure (HF) and cardiogenic shock require rapid and effective hemodynamic support. Current mechanical assistive devices, such as intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABP) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), offer temporary stabilization but are limited to short-term use due to risks associated with prolonged blood contact.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a complex and heterogeneous cardiac disorder, often complicated by cardiogenic shock, a life-threatening condition marked by severe cardiac output failure. Managing cardiogenic shock in HCM patients presents unique challenges due to the distinct pathophysiology of the disease, which includes dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, diastolic dysfunction, and myocardial ischemia. This review discusses current and emerging therapeutic strategies tailored to address the complexities of HCM-associated cardiogenic shock and other diseases with similar pathophysiology that provoke left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

BACKGROUND Human metapneumovirus (hMPV), classified in the Pneumoviridae family, is primarily known for causing lower respiratory tract infections in children, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals. However, rare instances have shown that hMPV can also affect other systems, such as the cardiovascular system, leading to conditions like myocarditis. CASE REPORT We describe a 68-year-old man with a medical history of diabetes, hypertension, and liver cirrhosis who presented to the Emergency Department (ED) exhibiting symptoms of fever, cough, and dyspnea.

Background: Traditional decannulation of femoral veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) involves femoral cutdown. Percutaneous methods have been developed, but data supporting their use is limited. We sought to compare the MANTA vascular closure device to open decannulation.

Background: We sought to identify predictors of acute renal failure (ARF) following acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) and its implications on postoperative outcomes.
Methods: ATAAD cases were identified from The Society of Thoracic Surgeons - Adult Cardiac Surgery Database (2017-2022). Cases with chronic dissection, prior aortic repair, primary endovascular repair, preoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, preoperative renal failure, and operative room deaths were excluded.
