Aortic arch surgery: beyond surgical technique alone.
Yan et al. [1] need to be congratulated on forming an international aortic arch study group to improve patient outcomes after aortic arch surgery. Clinical consensus to classify the different temperatures utilized for hypothermia is obviously important; however, it does not take into account metabolic variation between patients [2] and may potentially explain variation in reported outcomes. Wit...
متن کاملSimple Surgical Technique for Ingrown Toenail Surgery
Background: Ingrown toenails are a common condition which, when recurrent and painful, are often treated surgically. This study proposes a new simple surgical technique for ingrown toenails with good results.Method: We selected 150 patients with 185 affected toes who were surgically treated by our techniques carried out from April 1995 to March 2004.

متن کاملAortic arch replacement with proximal first technique.
BACKGROUND Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) without retrograde cerebral perfusion (RCP) has a strict time limit. We modified a surgical technique for anastomosis to shorten the period of DHCA and unilateral cerebral perfusion (UCP). METHODS Between March 1993 and August 2001, retrospective analysis was done on 23 consecutive patients, who underwent aortic arch replacement with branc...
متن کاملCerbral Protection Strategies for Aortic Arch Surgery
Surgical therapy for aortic arch disease involves partial or complete replacement of the aortic arch with reimplantation of the great vessels while the cerebral blood flow is temporarily altered. Patients undergoing this mandatory period of circulatory arrest during arch replacement are at an increased risk for adverse neurologic outcomes, and strategies for cerebral protection must be implemen...
متن کاملCortical blindness following aortic arch surgery.
PURPOSE To report a patient with Marfan's syndrome in whom cortical blindness occurred after planned circulatory arrest during aortic arch surgery. CASE A 31-year-old man underwent aortic arch surgery because of an acute aortic dissection due to Marfan's syndrome. He noticed poor vision after surgery, although his pupillary reflexes and fundi appeared normal. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ...
