Repair of Anomalous Origin of the Left Coronary Artery Arising from Right Pulmonary Artery with Rolled-Conduit-Extended Reimplantation in an Adult

Abstract: The left coronary artery arising from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital anomaly. It causes high mortality if untreated in childhood. Only 10% to 15% of patients reach adulthood. We report a successful repair of ALCAPA in an adult with a rolled-conduit-extended-reimplantation technique. The procedure is easily applicable and has technical advantages for creating a longer and wider conduit and may decrease bleeding. (J Card Surg 2011;26:604-607)

Randomized controlled trial of moderate hypothermia versus deep hypothermia anesthesia on brain injury during Stanford A aortic dissection surgery

Abstract: This study aimed to compare the effects of moderate versus deep hypothermia anesthesia for Stanford A aortic dissection surgery on brain injury. A total of 82 patients who would undergo Stanford A aortic dissection surgery were randomized into two groups: moderate hypothermia group (MH, n = 40, nasopharyngeal temperature 25 °C, and rectal temperature 28 °C) and deep hypothermia group (DH, n = 42, nasopharyngeal temperature 20 °C, and rectal temperature 25 °C). Different vascular replacement techniques including aortic root replacement, Bentall, and Wheat were used. The intraoperative and postoperative indicators of these patients were recorded. There were no differences in intraoperative and postoperative measures between MH and DH groups. The concentrations of neuron-specific enolase and S-100β increased with operation time, and were significantly lower in MH group than those in the DH group (P < 0.05). The occurrence rates of complications including chenosis, postoperative agitation, and neurological complications in MH group were significantly lower than in DH group. The recovery time, postoperative tube, and ICU intubation stay were significantly shorter in MH group than those in DH group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences revealed in hospital stay and death rate. MH exhibited better cerebral protective effects, less complications, and shorter tube time than DH in surgery for Stanford A aortic dissection.

Long-Term Outcomes of Homografts in the Aortic Valve and Root Position: A 20-Year Experience.

Abstract: Background: The advantages of using a homograft in valve replacement surgery are the excellent hemodynamic profile, low risk of thromboembolism, and low risk of prosthetic valve infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term outcomes of homograft implantation in the aortic valve position. Methods: This is a retrospective study of 33 patients (＞20 years old) who underwent aortic valve replacement or root replacement with homografts between April 1995 and May 2015. Valves were collected within 24 hours from explanted hearts of heart transplant recipients (＜60 years) and organ donors who were not suitable for heart transplantation. The median follow-up duration was 35.6 months (range, 0 to 168 months). Results: Aortic homografts were used in all patients. The 30-day mortality rate was 9.1%. The 1- and 5-year survival rates were 80.0%±7.3% and 60.8%±10.1%, respectively. The 1-, 5-, and 10-year freedom from reoperation rates were 92.3%±5.2%, 68.9%±10.2%, and 50.3%±13.6%, respectively. The 1-, 5-, and 10-year freedom from significant aortic dysfunction rates were 91.7%±8.0%, 41.7%±14.2%, and 25.0%±12.5%, respectively. Conclusion: Homografts had the advantages of a good hemodynamic profile and low risk of thromboembolic events, and with good outcomes in cases of aortitis.
