Article Abstract
We present the first case of a double atrial septal defect (ASD) successfully reshaped using transcatheter electrosurgery to unify both defects into a single orifice, enabling closure with a single device. This technique appears feasible and may simplify the management of complex double ASDs in some cases.

Approximately 0.8 % of all children are born with heart defects, with the prenatal incidence naturally being even higher. Among all congenital heart defects (CHD), conotruncal anomalies are the most common critical heart defects - after ventricular and atrial septal defects.

Background: Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) with end-stage renal failure on renal replacement therapy are at high risk of stroke and bleeding, but the optimal oral anticoagulation (OAC) strategy is uncertain. To investigate the most effective OAC therapy for patients with AF on long-term dialysis.
Methods: PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science databases were systematically searched from inception to 9 October 2024 to identify relevant studies on OAC strategy for patients with AF on long-term dialysis.

Purpose: Compared with retrospective ECG-gated arterial phase scan, to investigate the clinical application value of dual-source CT large-spiral arterial late scan in the imaging evaluation of left atrial appendage (LAA).
Patients And Methods: A total of 108 patients requiring LAA CT angiography (CTA) due to atrial fibrillation (AF) were selected from September 2024 to December 2024, including 52 patients in group A (Flash large-spiral arterial late scan) and 56 patients in group B (retrospective ECG-gated arterial phase scan). All patients underwent double-phase scan.

Background: Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common complication after esophagectomy and is associated with adverse outcomes. This study investigated whether preoperative stellate ganglion block (SGB) could reduce the incidence of POAF and improve postoperative recovery.
Methods: In this single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 100 patients undergoing esophagectomy were randomly assigned to receive ultrasound-guided right-sided SGB with 7 mL of either 0.
