Percutaneous vs. Surgical Tracheostomy: A Comparative Analysis of Efficiency, Cost, and Hospital Stay Open
Introduction Tracheostomy is a regularly performed procedure for patients requiring prolonged ventilatory support in the intensive care unit (ICU). Our community hospital implemented a new percutaneous tracheostomy (PT) program in an attem…

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor: A rare entity with a complex diagnosis Open
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is a neoplasm with uncertain behavior. We describe a case in a 66-year-old female who underwent resection of a left atrial tumor suspected to be a cardiac myxoma which was subsequently diagnosed as an inf…

Differences in life expectancy between men and women after aortic valve replacement Open
OBJECTIVES Some researchers have observed an increased number of deaths during the follow-up of young patients who undergo aortic valve replacement due to severe aortic stenosis, suggesting that this procedure does not restore their life e…

P349 Utility and prognostic value of aortic valve area by magnetic resonance imaging in patients with aortic stenosis Open
Classically clinical evaluation of patients with aortic stenosis (AS) is made using clinical and echocardiographic parameters but recently new imaging techniques as cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR ) are being used increasingly in th…
