Cannulation strategies in aortic arch surgeries are a matter of immense discussion. Majority of time deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) is the way out, but it does come with its set of demerits. Here we demonstrate a case with aortic arch dissection dealt with dual cannulation strategy in axillary and femoral artery without need for DHCA and ensuring complete neuroprotection of brain and spinal cord without hinderance of time factor.

Aims And Objectives: Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is the most common supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Prolonged PR interval(>200 ms) on baseline electrocardiogram (ECG) is uncommon in such patients. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the incidence, clinical, electrophysiological characteristics, and outcomes of patients with baseline prolongation of PR interval undergoing radio-frequency ablation (RFA) for AVNRT.

Left-handed individuals consist of around 11% of the population and true ambidextrous consists of only 2-3% of the total population. Almost a similar ratio is seen in medical profession also. Difficulties are obvious for left-handed cardiac surgeons in the operating room due to regular right-handed instruments, laterality, and positioning of the patients.

Background/aim: Surgical repair techniques and management of patients with atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) have progressed over the last few decades. Early and definitive interventions have become the choice of treatment for these patients. Based on this background, we aimed to review the early and mid-term outcomes of primary AVSD repair.

Coronary artery fistulas (CAFs) are rare congenital coronary artery abnormalities, with direct communication between a coronary artery and a cardiac chamber, great vessel or other structure. We report here, a rare case of a 25-year-old male with CAF from the aneurysmal left main coronary artery to the superior vena cava detected on echocardiography and computerized tomography (CT) coronary angiography.

Background: Obstructed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) typically present with severe cardiovascular decompensation and requires urgent surgical management. Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a major risk factor affecting mortality. Perioperative management focuses on providing inotropic support and managing potential pulmonary hypertensive episodes.

Introduction: Acute Myocardial injury defined by increased troponin I level is associated with poor in-hospital outcomes and cardiovascular complications in patients with COVID-19. The current study was designed to determine the implications and clinical outcome of myocardial injury in COVID-19.
Methods: This retrospective study included hospitalized COVID-19 patients.

Aims: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2 virus) affects vital organs and causes vascular injury. There are concerns that this injury may have long-term consequences on the cardiovascular system after recovery from COVID-19. We investigated the incidence and predictors of new-onset hypertension at 1-year follow-up post-COVID-19 disease.

Background: Lung recruitment techniques are employed to help in improvement of pulmonary mechanics, facilitate early weaning, and shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation. We are reporting a novel lung recruitment technique employed in four children with left lung atelectasis, who underwent corrective surgery for congenital heart disease.
Materials And Methods: From January 2020 to March 2021, four pediatric cardiac patients having left lung atelectasis, undergoing corrective surgery were subjected to lung recruitment technique and had elective endobronchial intubation and suctioning with chest physiotherapy in the form of vibration and percussion.

Aims: To study the respiratory variation of right atrial (RA) pressures at baseline and during atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT).
Methods: Of the 23 patients screened, 16 participants with typical AVNRT were included in the study. After ensuring adequate hydration, baseline RA pressures were measured as the height of 'a' and 'v' waves.

Our study objects to determine the diagnostic accuracy of two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2DSTE) in predicting presence and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). Patients with stable angina pectoris with normal left ventricular function (>50%) undergoing coronary angiography were enrolled and subjected to speckle tracking echocardiography. Global longitudinal peak systolic strain was measured and correlated to the results of coronary angiography for each patient.

Acute pulmonary embolism in presence of thrombocytopenia poses a challenging situation to manage. Concomitant presence of right atrial thrombus and thrombocytopenia will further complicate the situation. We hereby report a case of large right atrial thrombus with massive saddle bilateral pulmonary artery embolism with severe thrombocytopenia managed surgically with successful outcome.

Background: Despite improvement in the surgical procedure and strictly following the guidelines for mitral valve replacement (MVR), left ventricular dysfunction still occurs. Novel echocardiographic indices can predict development of LV (left ventricle) dysfunction post MVR. LV-GLS (global longitudinal strain) derived from speckle tracking echocardiography, has been proposed as a novel measure to better depict latent LV dysfunction.

Despite having clinical relevance, arterial stiffness is neglected and not routinely used parameter for evaluation of atherosclerosis. This study aimed to investigate the predictive role of simple non-invasive echocardiographic index of aortic stiffness aortic velocity propagation (AVP), Framingham risk score (FHS) and QRISK3 score for presence and severity of CAD. This cross-sectional comparative study included 250 patients who required conventional coronary angiogram for stable CAD.

Objective: Screening patients on anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens for the development of cardiotoxicity can be resource intensive. We therefore studied various traditional electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters to correlate and possibly predict the development of elevated Troponin I as a surrogate marker of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity.
Materials And Methods: This was a single-centre prospective cohort study done between January 2014 to January 2016.
