High incidence of permanent pacemaker after Cox-maze IV and mitral valve surgery: a nationwide registry-based study Open
OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the long-term risk of permanent pacemaker implantation following Cox-maze IV (CMIV) and concurrent mitral valve surgery. METHODS A retrospective, nationwide, registry-based analysis was conducted on postoper…

Risk of neurologic events after surgery for mitral valve insufficiency and concomitant Cox-maze IV procedure for atrial fibrillation. A nationwide register-based study Open
OBJECTIVES Analysis of the long-term risks of ischaemic stroke and cerebral bleeding in patients with atrial fibrillation after mitral valve surgery and concomitant Cox-maze IV procedure. METHODS In total, 397 patients with symptomatic deg…

Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection and Papillary Muscle Rupture in Patient With Undiagnosed Vascular Ehler-Danlos Syndrome Open
We present the case of a woman with acute coronary syndrome on the basis of spontaneous coronary artery dissection causing a papillary muscle rupture with severe mitral regurgitation and acute heart failure. The patient subsequently underw…

Surgical aspects of valve replacement in carcinoid heart disease Open
Tricuspid and pulmonary valve replacement in patients with advanced carcinoid heart disease (CaHD) reduces right heart failure and improves prognosis. The surgical literature is limited concerning description of technical aspects of valve …

Quadruple Bioprosthetic Valve Replacement in a Patient With Severe Carcinoid Heart Disease Open
Carcinoid heart disease typically affects the tricuspid and pulmonary valves, causing severe regurgitation and/or stenosis. Valve surgery has been shown to reduce right heart failure and improve long-term prognosis in these patients. We re…

An important piece of the puzzle for understanding the benefits of concomitant ablation of atrial fibrillation in cardiac surgery Open
Surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) has come a long way since the early days of the Cox-maze III procedure (CM-3), introduced by James Cox in the late 80’s (1). Back then, there was no catheter ablation therapy available for AF …

Large Inferolateral Left Ventricular Aneurysm Open
The majority of cardiac left ventricular aneurysms involve the anterior and/or apical wall. We present a case of a 50-year-old man with heart failure caused by a large inferolateral left ventricular aneurysm and associated mitral regurgita…
