Pulmonary Artery
This week on The Beat, CTSNet Editor-in-Chief Joel Dunning spoke with Taj Mohammed Fiyaz Chowdhry, a consultant thoracic surgeon at Burjeel Specialty Hospital, Sharjah, UAE, about uniportal robotics in the UAE. They discussed the advantages...
This case report describes a rare Type A aortic dissection that caused a pulmonary artery intramural hematoma and compression, which mimicked a saddle pulmonary embolism. The findings highlight the importance...
This video demonstrates the modified trapdoor technique for direct reimplantation of an anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. Case Presentation Following cardiopulmonary resuscitation, a three-month-old, 4.7 kg infant,...

This week on The Beat, CTSNet Editor-in-Chief Joel Dunning spoke with Jacques Kpodonu, a cardiac surgeon at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA, and Assistant Professor of Surgery...
The Warden procedure is a common surgical method for repairing partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR), but it may be complicated by cavoatrial anastomosis obstruction. A retrospective analysis of 136...
In this multicenter retrospective study of 1,454 consecutive patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), the SYNTAX Score II was externally validated for predicting four-year mortality. Mortality was 8.4...
Robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery provides significant advantages for complex pulmonary resections such as high-definition 3D visualization and enhanced precision, resulting in reduced morbidity and quicker recovery compared to open thoracotomy. Although...
This preclinical study explores the surgical technique and advantages of selective pulmonary artery perfusion with blood flow occlusion (SPAP-BFO) for targeted lung therapy. The novel approach involves a central, simultaneous...
There is limited data about the impact of timing of pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) on right heart reverse remodeling in patients with pulmonary regurgitation following intervention for isolated pulmonary valve...
Surgically repairing pulmonary atresia is a challenging problem when there is complete absence of pulmonary arteries. To restore the continuity and confluence of the lung hila, a tubal structure is...
The patient is a twenty-year-old female who was born with congenital bilateral branch pulmonary arteries hypoplasia and severe stenosis. She developed suprasystemic right ventricular pressure and underwent transcatheter balloon dilation...
The patient is a twenty-three-month-old boy with total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR), ventricular septal defect (VSD), and secundum atrial septal defect (ASD II) initially treated with a TAPVR correction...
