The standard approach (right ventriculotomy and atriotomy) for surgical repair of double-outlet right ventricle with subaortic ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis may not give an adequate view of the intracardiac defect due-to the presence of anomalous coronary artery anatomy or unusual cavity spacial relationship. Thus, a transverse aortotomy was performed and the left ventricular outflow tract was well visualized through the aortic valve and could be reconstructed precisely. Therefore, the transaortic approach also should be considered for systemic route reconstruction in this group.

Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with a rare form of ventricular septal defect (VSD) needs careful attention when choosing the optimal strategy for repair. A neonate with TGA and an atypical VSD, which extended from the perimembranous to the juxta-arterial regions, underwent the arterial switch procedure. The large VSD was successfully closed via a trans-tricuspid combined with a trans-aortic valve approach concomitantly with the arterial switch maneuver.

Objective: To assess the short-term outcomes of the transaortic modified Morrow procedure when performed via a minimally invasive right infra-axillary incision.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational study at a single center of patients diagnosed with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy from September 2021 to July 2023.
Results: The cohort comprised 148 patients (mean age 47.

Background: The neurolytic celiac plexus block (NCPB) can be introduced through the posterior para-aortic, anterior para-aortic, posterior transaortic, or endoscopic anterior para-aortic puncture approach, as well as the posterior approach via the intervertebral disc. To reduce the complications of puncture, this block's original manual blind puncture technique can be improved upon by using a C-arm fluoroscope, computed tomography (CT), or an ultrasound, the last of which may be endoscopic.
Objective: To observe the distribution of absolute alcohol and its analgesic effect on cancer-induced upper abdominal visceral pain during percutaneous NCPB through the anterior and posterior diaphragmatic crura under CT guidance.

This prospective, observational study evaluated Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) to assess the effects of cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on microcirculation. 40 Patients with severe aortic stenosis were enrolled. 20 patients underwent transapical/transaxillary/transaortic aortic valve replacement (TAVR), 20 underwent an open surgical approach with CPB (SAVR).
