We describe a technique for repairing the ventricular septal perforation 10 days post acute anteroseptal myocardial infarction using the modified infarction exclusion method. The repair involves endoventricular circular patch plasty and application of gelatin-resorcinol-formaldehyde biological glue
OBJECTIVE
We review cases of pseudoaneurysm formation of the graft anastomosis sites following repair of type A acute aortic dissection by our original leak-proof technique for dissected aortic wall reinforcement with xenopericardium and gelatin-resorcinol-formalin (GRF) glue.
METHODS
A 47-year-old
A surgical technique for simple and safe repair of oozing-type postinfarction cardiac rupture secondary to extended myocardial infarction is described. A hood-shaped pericardium was glued with gelatin-resorcinol and formaldehyde glue to cover the extended oozing infarcted myocardium. This technique
We present a case in which the sandwich technique was successfully applied via right ventriculotomy for posterior infarction ventricular septal perforation 2 days after acute posterior myocardial infarction in a 73-year-old male patient. The sealant BioGlue was applied to the space between the two
BACKGROUND
Previous studies on Labisia pumila var. alata (LPva) have showed that it could inhibit low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation and provide protection on myocardial infarction in rats.
OBJECTIVE
We hypothesized that LPva extracts can modulate the lipid profiles and serum antioxidant status
Cannabis is one of the most widely used plant drugs in the world today. In spite of the large number of scientific reports on medical marijuana there still exists much controversy surrounding its use and the potential for abuse due to the undesirable psychotropic effects. However, recent
BACKGROUND
Cardiac hypertrophy and reactive (including perivascular) and reparative fibrosis in L-NAME model are similar to that of hypertensive and cardiomyopathic patients.
OBJECTIVE
To qualitatively evaluate the reactive (including perivascular) and reparative fibrosis, on days 21 and 35,
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) usually acts as a signal transmitter in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); therefore, developing an attractive ALP activity assay, especially using a preferable substrate, would help improve the efficiency and convenience of ELISA in practical applications. Herein
