Mitral and tricuspid valve surgery in an adult with aberrant left brachiocephalic vein: a case report.
J Surg Case Rep

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Mitsubishi Kyoto Hospital, 1 Katsuragosho-cho, Nishikyo-ku, Kyoto 615-8087, Japan.
Aberrant left brachiocephalic vein (ALBCV), in which the vein passes posterior to the ascending aorta, is a rare vascular anomaly in adults without congenital heart disease. This condition can complicate venous cannulation during cardiac surgery. We report the case of a 78-year-old woman with severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation.

Background: Ultrasonography is the primary diagnostic imaging modality for upper extremity deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) related to peripherally inserted central venous catheters (PICCs). Computed tomography (CT) venography may offer higher sensitivity, while additionally providing information about the superior vena cava and central pulmonary arteries.
Purpose: We compared the diagnostic accuracy of CT venography with ultrasonography for screen-detected PICC-related venous thromboembolism (VTE).
Use of centrally and femorally inserted central venous catheters in neonates: a nationwide survey of practices in French neonatal intensive care units.

Department of neonatal intensive care, Hôpital Necker-Enfants malades, AP-HP, Paris, France.
Unlabelled: The aim of this study is to assess the use of centrally and femorally inserted central catheters (CICCs and FICCs, respectively) in French neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and to describe associated clinical practices. We conducted a national cross-sectional survey targeting all level III or higher NICUs in France. A link to an online questionnaire was sent to one member of the medical team in each unit between September and December 2024.

Upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT) is an uncommon clinical condition, accounting for fewer than 10% of all deep vein thromboses. While catheter-associated thrombosis and anatomical abnormalities are well-recognized causes, spontaneous UEDVT may occasionally serve as the first manifestation of an underlying malignancy. We report the case of a 43-year-old previously healthy male who developed spontaneous thrombosis of the left subclavian vein.

Background: After the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the Thoraflex Hybrid device in April 2022, hybrid devices to facilitate total arch replacement (TAR) became commercially available in the United States. However, little is known about how the Thoraflex device has been used since then. We present our experience (2016-2025) with this device.
