Pectoralis Muscle Area Predicts Frailty and Risk-Adjusted Mortality After Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement
Background: Psoas muscle cross-sectional area predicts morbidity and mortality as a surrogate for frailty in cardiac surgery patients, but routine preoperative abdominal imaging is uncommon. We hypothesized that pectoralis and psoas muscle cross-sectional area correlate, and pectoralis area may…

Surgical Treatment of Patent Ductus Arteriosus in High-Risk Adult Patients: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Background: Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a congenital cardiovascular anomaly characterized by the persistent patency of the fetal ductus arteriosus after birth, resulting in left-to-right shunting and hemodynamic compromise. While PDA is common in preterm neonates, this anomaly is rare in…

Concomitant Surgical Atrial Fibrillation Ablation (Modified Cox Maze IV) in Patients With Long-Standing Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Mitral Valve Surgery: Experience From a UK Tertiary Center
Background:In patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) and chronic severe mitral valve (MV) regurgitation, the success rate of cardioversion and long-term maintenance of sinus rhythm is poor. Concomitant AF ablation during MV surgery may improve outcomes. We report short- and medium-term…
