Partial inflow occlusion: a neglected technique for treating troublesome aortic leaks.

Most cardiac surgeons occasionally encounter troublesome bleeding from an ascending aortic site and are aware of the potential difficulties associated with repairing this complication. Partial inflow occlusion, as described below, is a simple method of depressurizing the aorta to facilitate suture placement after cardiopulmonary bypass.

Protein-losing enteropathy complicating the Mustard procedure.

Protein-losing enteropathy is a reported complication of several cardiac diseases. Recently we encountered a patient with protein-losing enteropathy acquired as a late surgical complication of the Mustard procedure. An obstructed superior vena caval conduit was repaired surgically and the enteropathy was resolved.

Ruptured ductus arteriosus. Aneurysm in an infant. Report of a survivor.

The diagnosis of a large ductus arteriosus aneurysm was made in a 3 1/2-month-old infant by cardiac catheterization following massive hemoptysis. Prompt surgical correction accounted for the patient's survival. Differential diagnosis of an intrathoracic mass should include a ductus arteriosus aneurysm even in the newborn period.

Left atrial appendage aneurysm: correlation of noninvasive with clinical and surgical findings: report of a case.

Congenital left atrial appendage aneurysm is rarely diagnosed on the basis of an abnormal cardiac silhouette. Patients with a left atrial appendage aneurysm often present with symptoms of systemic emboli or supraventricular arrhythmias. A patient with left atrial appendage aneurysm was diagnosed by correlation of two noninvasive techniques echocardiography and radionuclide scintiscanning. Angiography was confirmatory and aneurysmectomy was successfully performed.
