Objectives: To determine the incidence and subsequent complications of internal jugular vein (IJV) thrombosis after cannulation performed during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to ensure adequate venous drainage during minimally invasive cardiac surgery.
Design: Single-center observational trial SETTINGS: Intensive care postoperative monitoring of cardiac surgery patients and diagnosis of IJV thrombi at a university tertiary hospital during the 13-month study period from December 1, 2022, to January 11, 2024.
Participants: 44 patients undergoing catheterization of the IJV for total CPB.

Sonographic examination of major vessels can be a valuable bedside tool for perioperative hemodynamic assessment. In the present review, we present the anatomic and physiological aspects of internal jugular vein ultrasonography, its utility in assessing central venous pressure, intravascular volume status, fluid responsiveness, and its predictive value regarding post-spinal anesthesia hypotension. The existing literature is primarily comprised of small, observational studies with great heterogeneity in their methodology and shortcomings in data development and analysis, rendering the generalization of their results difficult to interpret for daily clinical practice.

Background: An inward force is experienced by the guide catheter during device retrieval resulting in potential risk of deep engagement into the ostio-proximal coronary segment. This undesired movement can result in coronary injury. There is no systematic data or reports of techniques to prevent such inadvertent guide movement during difficult retrieval of devices.

Background: Cardiac issues following radiotherapy are increasingly prevalent among patients with thoracic cancer and coronary disease. However, the mechanisms underlying radiotherapy-induced plaque instability and changes in plaque characteristics on imaging remain unclear. This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to identify key features of vulnerable plaques following radiotherapy.

A 33-year-old male developed pulmonary vein (PV) stenosis 3 months after PV isolation for atrial fibrillation. Stents were implanted in the left superior and inferior PVs, but 2 years later, in-stent restenosis occurred. Intravascular ultrasound and nonobstructive general angioscopy (NOGA) revealed severe ostial stenosis and neointimal hyperplasia.
