Journal ArticleDOI

Coronary bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass--technical considerations, clinical results, and follow-up.

TL;DR: Coronary bypass surgery without using cardiopulmonary bypass is safe to achieve good early and mid-term results and MIDCAB is a minimally invasive technique that experienced surgeons should be ready to compete with PTCA techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prospective and retrospective ECG-gating for CT coronary angiography perform similarly accurate at low heart rates.

TL;DR: Prospectively ECG-gated CTCA yields similar image quality, performs as accurately as retrospectively ECGs, in patients having heart rates ≤70 bpm while being associated with a lower mean effective radiation dose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Granular flows in a rotating drum: the scaling law between velocity and thickness of the flow

TL;DR: The results show that the flow of a dry granular material in a rotating drum is very sensible to the geometry, and that the deduction of the “rheology” of a granular medium flowing in such a geometry is not obvious.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endoscopic internal thoracic artery dissection leads to significant reduction of pain after minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

TL;DR: An endoscopic ITA takedown in MIDCABG surgery leads to significantly reduced postoperative pain levels possibly because of less rib retraction, as compared with conventional cardiac bypass operations through a median sternotomy.
Journal ArticleDOI

One-Stage Surgery of Coronary Arteries and Abdominal Aorta in Patients With Impaired Left Ventricular Function

TL;DR: One-stage surgery is a possible approach to highly symptomatic patients with severe multivascular disease and has acceptable early morbidity and mortality, and demonstrates that one-stage procedure is a reasonable option for this patient subgroup.
