Beyond the label: Long-term outcomes after surgical management of Ebstein anomaly
Ebstein anomaly is a rare congenital malformation of the tricuspid valve and right ventricle characterized by marked heterogeneity in anatomy, physiology, and clinical presentation. This broad phenotypic spectrum strongly influences the ...

Infracardiac and mixed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection: Surgical challenges and practical solutions
Background: Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) remains a complex congenital cardiac malformation. Despite improved survival, infracardiac and mixed variants continue to carry disproportionate risks of early mortality, po...

A pathobiologic classification of aortic stenosis: Moving beyond the degenerative–bicuspid–rheumatic paradigm
Background: Aortic stenosis is traditionally categorised as degenerative calcific, congenital bicuspid, or rheumatic. Contemporary molecular biology, multimodality imaging, and transcatheter valve therapy demonstrate that aortic stenosis...

Perioperative risk scores and predictors for postoperative pulmonary complications in thoracic surgery with one-lung ventilation: A prospective observational study
Background: Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are common after thoracic surgery performed with one-lung ventilation (OLV). Although risk scores such as ARISCAT, ASA physical status, and LAS VEGAS are used to predict PPC in gen...

Hemocompatible polymer coating for extracorporeal circulation circuit affects lactate levels during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery
Introduction: Blood lactate level (LL) is a useful predictor of physiological issues during extracorporeal circulation (ECC) treatment. To determine variations in LL depending on the hemocompatible coatings used for ECC, in vitro experim...

Impact of postcardiotomy ECMO utilization after the Norwood procedure in the United States
Background: Norwood surgery is the first stage in the surgical palliation of hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) and its variants. Postcardiotomy extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may be required in some patients undergoing t...
