Mashup Score: 5
Robotic surgery has emerged as a versatile and effective technique for the minimally invasive surgical treatment of various thoracic pathologies, including lung cancer, esophageal cancer, and mediastinal tumors. Robotic surgery offers numerous advantages over traditional open and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) approaches, including improved visualization, precision, dexterity, reduced blood loss, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery times. 1, 2 Numerous reports indicate that the

Mashup Score: 4Barriers to Multiarterial Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting - Stephen D. Waterford, 2024 - 3 month(s) ago
There are several barriers to multiarterial grafting at the time of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). These are re viewed and solutions suggested where possible. Emphasis is placed not on a review of the benefits of multiarterial grafting, which can be found elsewhere, but rather on reasons for low adoption of multiarterial grafting. Low adoption of multiarterial grafting is greatest in the United States. One report using the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) database showed a use of multiarterial

Mashup Score: 11The 7 Pillars for Preoperative Optimization and Postoperative Care in Patients Undergoing Minimally Invasive CABG - Menaka Ponnambalam, 2024 - 3 month(s) ago
Using modern surgical skill and prowess, minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting (MICS CABG), surgery performed via small thoracotomy, is the most innovative iteration of durable revascularization options for patients with symptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD is inherently associated with comorbidity, and increasing numbers of older adults are undergoing CABG surgery. MICS CABG offers an important alternative to the traditional sternotomy approach for surgical revascularization,

Mashup Score: 4The 10 Commandments of Less Invasive CABG: How to Increase Adoption - Marc Ruel, 2024 - 4 month(s) ago
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is one of the most performed operations worldwide. However, CABG is often as invasive today as it was 50 years ago. Less invasive CABG, or minimally invasive CABG (MICS CABG), can take many forms. Regardless of which iteration is undertaken, less invasive CABG represents one of the most technically challenging operations that a cardiac surgeon can perform today. Indeed, through a small incision, reconstructive microsurgery must be performed flawlessly, with different

Mashup Score: 3The 10 Commandments for Echocardiography Assessment to Determine Severity and Repairability of the Tricuspid Valve - Neal Duggal, Andrew Harris, 2024 - 5 month(s) ago
Significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR) has been associated with poor long-term outcomes that include right heart failure, end-organ damage, and mortality. 1 A recent natural history study of patients with moderate or severe TR reported a 42% mortality rate during a median follow-up of 2.9 years. 2 Fewer than 0.5% of the estimated 1.6 million patients affected with moderate to severe TR undergo surgical interventions annually. 3 Patients are often referred to surgery in the late stages of the disease

Mashup Score: 8The 7 Pillars of Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Interventions - Ali M. Alakhtar, Tsuyoshi Kaneko, 2024 - 5 month(s) ago
Despite being the least prevalent among valvular pathologies, the natural history of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) notably correlates with high mortality rates. 1 Most often, TR is diagnosed only as an accidental finding with patients undergoing routine echocardiography for left-sided heart disease. Traditionally, TR has been divided into 2 categories: primary and secondary. Secondary TR (STR), also known as functional TR (FTR), is the most common form of TR. 2 FTR is a complex disease arising from atrial

Mashup Score: 4The 10 Commandments for Endoscopic Minimally Invasive Tricuspid Valve Repair - Mohsyn Imran Malik, Michael W. A. Chu, 2024 - 5 month(s) ago
Tricuspid valve regurgitation (TR) is ubiquitous, more often secondary, commonly associated with other conditions and can be challenging to sort out which patients suffer from TR as opposed to those who live with incidental TR. As established by the American Heart Association (AHA) and European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines, isolated tricuspid valve intervention is generally reserved for patients with symptomatic, refractory, severe TR or with signs of right ventricular dys function (Table 1).
