Article Abstract
Objective: Identify the incidence and factors associated with reoperation due to bleeding in the postoperative of a cardiac surgery, in addition to the clinical outcomes of patients.
Method: Prospective cohort study, conducted in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU), with adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Patients diagnosed with coagulopathies were excluded. The patients were followed up from hospitalization to hospital discharge.
Results: A total of 682 patients were included, and the incidence of reoperation was 3.4%. The factors associated with reoperation were history of renal failure (p = 0.005), previous use of anticoagulant (p = 0.036), higher intraoperative heart rate (p = 0.015), need for transfusion of blood component during intraoperative (p = 0.040), and higher SAPS 3 score (p < 0.001). The outcomes associated with reoperation were stroke and cardiac arrest.
ConclusÃo: Reoperation was an event associated with greater severity, organic dysfunction, and worse clinical outcomes, but there was no difference in mortality between the groups.

Background: Closure of soft tissue defects following surgical repair of neonatal myelomeningocele requires prompt and well-justified decisions regarding the reconstruction method if the defects are to be closed within the first two days of life. For larger defects, flap reconstruction is often necessary. The aim of the study was to examine reconstruction methods for closing soft tissue defects following surgery for myelomeningocele, as well as complications and the need for reoperation.

Objective: To compare the clinical outcomes of double-valve replacement (DVR) using bovine pericardial and porcine bioprostheses, using a nationwide administrative claims database.
Methods: Adult patients (age ≥40 years) who underwent bioprosthetic DVR between 2003 and 2018 were identified from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. The outcomes of interest were all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, and valve-related events, including the incidences of reoperation, endocarditis, systemic thromboembolism, and major bleeding.
Posterior leaflet reconstruction in mitral valve repair: Does resect versus respect strategy matter?
JTCVS Open

Division of Cardiac Surgery, Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pa.
Objective: Previous randomized controlled trials demonstrated comparable outcomes between posterior leaflet resections and neochord implantation in mitral valve (MV) repair. However, these studies were limited up to 1-year follow-up, and more recent evidence suggested that leaflet resections may offer superior long-term outcomes.
Methods: All patients who underwent MV repair with either resection or neochord implantation for posterior leaflet pathology between October 2011 and July 2024 were included.
Study on the remodeling of distal residual dissection after surgery in patients with type A aortic dissection and Marfan syndrome.

Objective: To evaluate the remodeling of the distal aorta and outcomes after aortic surgery for type A aortic dissection (TAAD) in patients with Marfan syndrome and investigate whether morphologic characteristics of the dissection can predict negative remodeling.
Methods: Between 2013 and 2021, we performed total arch with a frozen elephant trunk for 325 patients with Marfan syndrome with DeBakey type I aortic dissection. Mean age was 47.
Surgical Management of Brain Metastases in Patients Aged 80 and Above: Observations From a Limited Case Series.

Introduction Potentially surgical brain metastases are increasingly common in patients aged 80 and older, yet the risk-benefit profile of surgical resection in this population remains inadequately defined. Surgical intervention in octogenarians carries a high risk due to systemic issues associated with advanced age and prevalent comorbidities, and data on perioperative morbidity and functional outcomes are limited. Methods A retrospective case series including six patients aged 80 years and older who underwent craniotomy for the resection of brain metastases at a single tertiary care center was conducted.
