Minimally invasive and robotic coronary revascularization strategies offer less pain, fewer adverse events, better cosmesis, and speedier recovery. These procedures are vulnerable to left internal mammary artery (LIMA) injury that may require a full ...
We present a 67-year-old patient who underwent robotic excision of a mobile left ventricular mass found incidentally on echocardiography. Intraoperative findings revealed a pedunculated mass infiltrating the interventricular septum, and the results o...
Papillary fibroelastomas of the mitral chordae tendineae are rare, primary benign tumors. They are either incidentally diagnosed during echocardiography or discovered after transient ischemic attack, stroke, or myocardial infarction. Removal of papil...
Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) is an increasingly common intervention, and complications resulting from embolization are increasingly observed. We report a case of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) embolization resulting in cardiac complications in a...
Minimally invasive approaches to diaphragm plication for eventration include thoracoscopic and laparoscopic techniques. The elevated hemidiaphragm and ribs limit thoracoscopic techniques. We report our modification of the laparoscopic approach using ...
A 61-year-old man had experienced an irritating cough for 1 month. He received a diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma by bronchoscopy. Computed tomography showed a mass in the left hilum and mediastinal lymph node enlargement. After two cycles of neoadju...
