Background: This is a case report of a patient with Fabry disease (FD). We successfully treated a patient with ventricular septal hypertrophy and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction caused by FD. We report our exclusive new surgery for patients with LVOT obstruction, percutaneous intramyocardial septal radiofrequency ablation (PIMSRA) procedure™ (percutaneous intramyocardial septal radiofrequency ablation).

The surgical management of hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer may range from segmental resections to major or extended hepatectomies. The aim is to achieve complete removal of metastatic lesions while preserving adequate liver function. We present the case of a 42-year-old male patient with a history of glucose intolerance who presented with altered bowel movements and abdominal pain.

Spontaneous liver bleeding is a rare but life-threatening complication of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The optimal management strategy for this condition remains a topic of ongoing debate. We present the case of a 74-year-old man with cirrhosis and hemorrhagic shock resulting from the spontaneous rupture of HCC.

Background: Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has become an important strategy for treating atrial fibrillation (AF), and postoperative recurrence represents a significant and actively discussed clinical concern. The recurrence after RFCA is considered closely related to inflammation. Systemic immune inflammation index (SII) is a novel inflammation predictor based on neutrophils, platelets, and lymphocytes, and is considered a biomarker that comprehensively reflects the immune inflammatory status of the body.

Clinical outcomes of catheter ablation remain suboptimal in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), particularly in those with persistent AF, despite decades of research, clinical trials, and technological advancements. Recently, pulsed-field ablation (PFA), a promising non-thermal technology, has been introduced to improve procedural outcomes. Its unique feature of myocardial selectivity offers safety advantages by avoiding potential harm to vulnerable adjacent structures during AF ablation.
