Journal ArticleDOI
Extracardiac repair versus intracardiac baffle repair of complex unroofed coronary sinus.
J.A.M. van Son,M. D. Black,G. S. Haas,Volkmar Falk,J. Hambsch,J. F. Onnasch,Friedrich-Wilhelm Mohr +6 more
TL;DR: The extracardiac repair technique for complex unroofed coronary sinus, as opposed to the intra-atrial baffle repair, avoids creation of a small and low-compliance left- atrial compartment with the potential for development of pulmonary venous congestion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concept and first experimental results of a new ferromagnetic assist device for extra-aortic counterpulsation
Christoph Starck,Jakob Becker,Roland Fuhrer,Simon H. Sündermann,Jan Wendelin Stark,Volkmar Falk +5 more
TL;DR: Combining the advantages of magnetic elastomers with the principle of extra-aortic counterpulsation in a new assist device concept avoids the need for anticoagulation (no contact with bloodstream) and the magnetic principle of action is avoided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased Longevity and Pumping Performance of an Injection Molded Soft Total Artificial Heart.
Leonard G. Guex,Lewis S. Jones,A. Xavier Kohll,Roland Walker,Mirko Meboldt,Volkmar Falk,M. Schmid Daners,Wendelin J. Stark +7 more
TL;DR: An injection molded soft total artificial heart produced from high-temperature vulcanizing silicone using an industrial metal injection mold and was pumped continuously for 110,000 actuation cycles to find an optimized design.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perspectives in endoscopic cardiac surgery
TL;DR: In 2005, a total of 2984 cardiac procedures were performed worldwide using the da Vinci system, which includes totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass grafting (TECAB), mitral valve repair (MVR) procedures, ASD closure and cardiac tissue ablation for atrial fibrillation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cocaine-Related Aortic Dissection: what do we know?
Dustin Greve,Joana Funke,Tiam Khairi,Matteo Montagner,Christoph Starck,Volkmar Falk,Michel Pompeu Barros de Oliveira Sá,Stephan D. Kurz +7 more
TL;DR: Acute aortic dissection related to cocaine use occurs in predominantly young male patients and has a dismal outcome when compared to all comer series.
