English, Scientific journal, OBJECTIVES: Sarcopenia and malnutrition often occur simultaneously in adults with cardiovascular diseases. Our objective was to determine the associations of preoperative sarcopenia and malnutrition with major adverse cardiac and cerebral events (MACCE) after cardiac surgery. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 154 consecutive patients who underwent elective cardiac surgery between January 2015 and June 2018 at two institutions in Japan. Sarcopenia and nutritional status were preoperatively assessed by bilateral psoas muscle volume index (PMVI) using CT scans and the prognostic nutritional index (PNI), respectively. RESULTS: The median age in the total cohort was 69 years, and 43% were women. Within 30 days after surgery, 20 patients developed in-hospital MACCE and 7 patients died of any cause. Low PMVI (<72.25 cm3/m2) and low PNI (<48.15) were each independent predictors of postoperative MACCE occurrence with odds ratios (95% confidence interval) of 3.58 (1.22-10.53) and 3.73 (1.25-11.09) when adjusted for age and sex, and 3.25 (1.07-9.87) and 3.27 (1.08-9.89) when adjusted for preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin-receptor blocker, and anticoagulant. In addition, the combination of low PMVI and low PNI conferred the highest risk of in-hospital MACCE among the 4 groups (ie, the low PMVI, low PNI, low PMVI+low PNI, and neither low PMVI nor low PNI groups). CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative low PMVI and low PNI were respectively associated with 30-day in-hospital MACCE occurrence after cardiac surgery. Notably, coexistence of these reductions further enhanced the risk of postoperative MACCE.

Scientific journal, Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are vital for managing severe heart failure in transplant-ineligible patients, but device exposure and infection pose significant challenges. This report details a 42-year-old man with dilated cardiomyopathy and bronchial asthma who presented with an externalized LVAD following a HeartMate II to HeartMate III exchange due to malfunction. Our tailored surgical strategy treated the LVAD driveline and main body as two distinct parts. This distinction is crucial, as major upstream infections typically originate from the driveline. We applied flaps to these parts for different purposes, maximizing their unique characteristics. The omental flap, chosen for its flexibility, blood supply, and immunological activation upon foreign body contact, covered the driveline. The latissimus dorsi flap provided vascularity and mechanical protection for the LVAD. Additionally, we review the omentum's basic physiological aspects, which are often unfamiliar to clinicians. Infection has not recurred in 6 months postoperatively, demonstrating the approach's effectiveness.

Surgical case reports, 10, 1, 202, 202, 30 Aug. 2024, [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: Heart transplantation in patients with situs inversus is challenging, especially in terms of reconstruction of the systemic venous return. Several rerouting techniques have been presented but are associated with vulnerability to external compression, which might cause hemodynamic instability, especially in the presence of chest deformity. In this study, we report a rare case of successful heart transplantation in the presence of situs inversus and pectus excavatum. CASE PRESENTATION: A 55-year-old man, with a history of surgeries for corrected transposition of the great arteries with ventricular septal defect, was registered for heart transplantation owing to progression of heart failure. Subsequently, he had undergone a left ventricular assist device implantation; 14 years after registration, he underwent transplantation of the heart with normal anatomy. The inferior vena cava was reconstructed by anastomosing the left atria with a counterclockwise rotation of the donor heart and by lengthening the recipient inferior vena cava with a conduit made of the residual right atrial tissue. The superior vena cava was reconstructed using a donor innominate vein harvested with sufficient length. After successful weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass, the chest could not be closed because the heart was compressed owing to chest deformity, resulting in hemodynamic instability. Therefore, to exclude the left lung, a left pericardial screen was created using a bovine pericardium, allowing the chest to be closed with acceptable hemodynamics. The patient suffered postoperatively from a higher venous pressure, suggesting an obstruction of venous return early after surgery. The obstruction gradually resolved, and the patient was transferred for rehabilitation. CONCLUSIONS: Heart transplantation in the presence of situs inversus is challenging; moreover, the presence of pectus excavatum further complicates the procedure. The paradoxically larger left lung and chest deformity compressed and impaired reconstructed systemic venous return. Although intrathoracic exclusion of the left lung was effective, an intraoperative or early postoperative thoracoplasty for pectus excavatum was also a viable option. Patient-specific management is mandatory, depending on the anatomy.

English, Scientific journal, PURPOSE: We aimed to investigate the POAF rate and blood FABP4 levels after perioperative L-carnitine administration in patients with esophageal cancer. METHODS: L-carnitine (3 g in three divided doses) was administered to 15 patients 2 days before and 3 days after surgery. POAF during the study period and blood FABP4 levels (ELISA) before and after L-carnitine administration were evaluated. Accurate 95% confidence intervals (CI) for POAF incidence and changes in blood FABP4 levels were calculated. The preoperative predicted POAF rate was calculated using an application for esophageal cancer. The correlation between FABP4 levels and the predicted POAF rate was analyzed using Pearson's coefficient (r). RESULTS: Thirteen patients completed this study. The predicted POAF rate was 24% (17%, 34%) (median; interquartile range). The actual incidence of POAF was 7.7% (95% CI: 0.2-36%). Blood FABP4 levels changed from 10.3 to 7.0 ng/mL; the average change was - 3.3 (95% CI: - 6.6 to - 0.1). A positive correlation was found between preoperative FABP4 levels and the predicted POAF rates (r = 0.564). CONCLUSIONS: The POAF rate after esophageal surgery was 7.7% for L-carnitine. L-carnitine may reduce blood FABP4 levels. This preliminary study will contribute to the planning of sample sizes in future randomized trials.

Effects of Trehalose Preconditioning on H9C2 Cell Viability and Autophagy Activation in a Model of Donation after Circulatory Death for Heart Transplantation.
Jingwen Gao, Yasushige Shingu, Satoru Wakasa
Current issues in molecular biology, 46, 4, 3353, 3363, 12 Apr. 2024, [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, Donation after circulatory death (DCD) is a promising strategy for alleviating donor shortage in heart transplantation. Trehalose, an autophagy inducer, has been shown to be cardioprotective in an ischemia-reperfusion (IR) model; however, its role in IR injury in DCD remains unknown. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of trehalose on cardiomyocyte viability and autophagy activation in a DCD model. In the DCD model, cardiomyocytes (H9C2) were exposed to 1 h warm ischemia, 1 h cold ischemia, and 1 h reperfusion. Trehalose was administered before cold ischemia (preconditioning), during cold ischemia, or during reperfusion. Cell viability was measured using the Cell Counting Kit-8 after treatment with trehalose. Autophagy activation was evaluated by measuring autophagy flux using an autophagy inhibitor, chloroquine, and microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B light chain 3 B (LC3)-II by western blotting. Trehalose administered before the ischemic period (trehalose preconditioning) increased cell viability. The protective effects of trehalose preconditioning on cell viability were negated by chloroquine treatment. Furthermore, trehalose preconditioning increased autophagy flux. Trehalose preconditioning increased cardiomyocyte viability through the activation of autophagy in a DCD model, which could be a promising strategy for the prevention of cardiomyocyte damage in DCD transplantation.

Scientific journal, Abstract

Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is an active endocrine organ that is closely associated with occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the role of EAT in the development of postoperative AF (POAF) remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the association between EAT profile and POAF occurrence in patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery. We obtained EAT samples from 53 patients to evaluate gene expression, histological changes, mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) capacity in the EAT, and protein secretion in EAT‐conditioned medium. EAT volume was measured using computed tomography scan. Eighteen patients (34%) experienced POAF within 7 days after surgery. Although no significant difference was observed in EAT profile between patients with and without POAF, logistic regression analysis identified that the mRNA expression levels of tumor necrosis factor‐alpha (TNF‐α) were positively correlated and adipocyte size in the EAT was inversely correlated with onset of POAF, respectively. Mitochondrial OXPHOS capacity in the EAT was not associated with POAF occurrence; however, it showed an inverse correlation with adipocyte size and a positive correlation with adiponectin secretion. In conclusion, changes in the secretory profile and adipocyte morphology of the EAT, which represent qualitative aspects of the adipose tissue, were present before the onset of AF.

Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 19, 1, 147, 147, 20 Mar. 2024, [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, OBJECTIVE: Ischaemic secondary mitral regurgitation (ISMR) after surgery is due to the displacement of papillary muscles resulting from progressive enlargement of the left ventricle end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD). Our aim was to prove that if the interpapillary muscle distance (IPMD) is surgically stabilized, an increase in LVEDD will not lead to a recurrence of ischaemic mitral regurgitation (MR). METHODS: Ninety-six patients with ISMR, who underwent surgical revascularisation and annuloplasty, were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to undergo papillary muscle approximation (PMA). At the 5-year follow-up, we assessed the correlation between PMA and echocardiographic improvements, the effect size of PMA on echocardiographic improvements, and a prediction model for recurrent MR using inferential tree analysis. RESULTS: There was a significant correlation between PMA and enhancements in both the α and β angles (Spearman's rho > 0.7, p < 0.01). The α angle represents the angle between the annular plane and either the A2 annular-coaptation line or the P2 annular-coaptation line. The β angle indicates the angle between the annular plane and either the A2 annular-leaflet tip line or the P2 annular-leaflet tip line. PMA led to substantial improvements in LVEDD, tenting area, α and β angles, with a large effect size (Hedge's g ≥ 8, 95% CI ORs ≠ 1). The most reliable predictor of recurrent MR grade was the interpapillary distance, as only patients with an interpapillary distance greater than 40 mm developed ≥ 3 + grade MR. For patients with an IPMD of 40 mm or less, the best predictor of recurrent MR grade was LVEDD. Among the patients, only those with LVEDD greater than 62 mm showed moderate (2+) MR, while only those with LVEDD less than or equal to 62 mm had absent to mild (1+) MR. CONCLUSION: Prediction of recurrent ischaemic MR is not independent of progressive LVEDD increase. PMA-based surgical procedure stabilises IPMD.

Posterior Papillary Muscle Suspension for Treating Systolic Anterior Motion in Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy.
Taiki Ito, Satoru Wakasa, Koji Sato, Shinji Abe, Taro Minamida
Annals of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery : official journal of the Association of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeons of Asia, 30, 1, 2024, [Domestic magazines]
English, Scientific journal, Systolic anterior motion of the anterior mitral leaflet can persist after ventricular septal myectomy for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, resulting in residual pressure gradients and mitral regurgitation. However, additional procedures for systolic anterior motion involving mitral valve leaflet suturing and resection may lead to future valve disease. Therefore, we adopted posterior papillary muscle suspension, a subvalvular procedure for functional mitral regurgitation, to treat systolic anterior motion without directly intervening in the mitral valve leaflets. Papillary muscle suspension toward the posterior mitral annulus moved the papillary muscles away from the interventricular septum and successfully eliminated the systolic anterior motion and midventricular pressure gradient. In terms of avoiding direct mitral interventions, this procedure is a viable option for systolic anterior motion, especially in cases of very mild mitral regurgitation.

Rough-zone suspension with mitral valve replacement for ventricular functional mitral regurgitation.
Satoru Wakasa, Yasushige Shingu
General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 02 Nov. 2023, [Domestic magazines]
English, Scientific journal, Chordal preservation is recommended in mitral valve replacement for functional mitral regurgitation to preserve left ventricular function. In contrast, papillary muscle suspension toward the anterior mitral annulus can induce left ventricular reverse remodeling after mitral valve replacement for functional mitral regurgitation. However, the extent of suspension depends on the surgeon's experience. Therefore, we developed a new concept of chordal preservation, called rough-zone suspension, which not only spares the subvalvular structure but also suspends the papillary muscles toward the annulus. This procedure is simple and reproducible for determining the extent of suspension, and can increase the probability of left ventricular reverse remodeling after mitral valve replacement for functional mitral regurgitation.

Takahiro Ishigaki, Satoru Wakasa, Yasushige Shingu, Yohei Ohkawa, Akira Yamada
General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 71, 11, 674, 680, Nov. 2023, [Domestic magazines]
English, Scientific journal, OBJECTIVE: To determine the association between sarcopenia and surgical outcomes in octogenarians with acute type A aortic dissection. METHODS: We enrolled 72 octogenarians who had undergone type A aortic dissection surgery between April 2013 and March 2019. The psoas muscle index, an indexed area of the psoas muscle at the L3 level on preoperative computed tomography, was obtained as an indicator of sarcopenia. The study participants were divided into sarcopenia and non-sarcopenia groups based on the mean psoas muscle index. The postoperative outcomes were compared between the groups. RESULTS: The median age was 84 years (interquartile range 82-87 years), and 13 patients were male. The mean psoas muscle index was 3.53 ± 0.97 cm2/m2. Except for sex, no significant differences were observed in patients' baseline characteristics and operative data between the two groups. The 30-day mortality rates in the sarcopenia and non-sarcopenia groups were 14% and 8%, respectively (P = 0.71), and postoperative morbidity was similar in both groups. Postoperative all-cause mortality was significantly higher in the sarcopenia group (log-rank P = 0.038), especially in patients aged 85 years or older (log-rank P < 0.01). The sarcopenia group had a lower home discharge rate than the non-sarcopenia group (21% vs. 54%, P < 0.01), and home discharge was associated with longer survival (log-rank P = 0.015). CONCLUSIONS: All-cause mortality after emergency surgery for acute type A aortic dissection was significantly higher in octogenarians with sarcopenia than in those without, especially in patients aged 85 years or older.

English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: The differences in pre- and early post-procedural blood flow dynamics between the two major types of bioprosthetic valves, the balloon-expandable valve (BEV) and self-expandable valve (SEV), in patients with aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), have not been investigated. We aimed to investigate the differences in blood flow dynamics between the BEV and SEV using four-dimensional flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance (4D flow CMR). METHODS: We prospectively examined 98 consecutive patients with severe AS who underwent TAVR between May 2018 and November 2021 (58 BEV and 40 SEV) after excluding those without CMR because of a contraindication, inadequate imaging from the analyses, or patients' refusal. CMR was performed in all participants before (median interval, 22 [interquartile range (IQR) 4-39] days) and after (median interval, 6 [IQR 3-6] days) TAVR. We compared the changes in blood flow patterns, wall shear stress (WSS), and energy loss (EL) in the ascending aorta (AAo) between the BEV and SEV using 4D flow CMR. RESULTS: The absolute reductions in helical flow and flow eccentricity were significantly higher in the SEV group compared in the BEV group after TAVR (BEV: - 0.22 ± 0.86 vs. SEV: - 0.85 ± 0.80, P < 0.001 and BEV: - 0.11 ± 0.79 vs. SEV: - 0.50 ± 0.88, P = 0.037, respectively); there were no significant differences in vortical flow between the groups. The absolute reduction of average WSS was significantly higher in the SEV group compared to the BEV group after TAVR (BEV: - 0.6 [- 2.1 to 0.5] Pa vs. SEV: - 1.8 [- 3.5 to - 0.8] Pa, P = 0.006). The systolic EL in the AAo significantly decreased after TAVR in both the groups, while the absolute reduction was comparable between the groups. CONCLUSIONS: Helical flow, flow eccentricity, and average WSS in the AAo were significantly decreased after SEV implantation compared to BEV implantation, providing functional insights for valve selection in patients with AS undergoing TAVR. Our findings offer valuable insights into blood flow dynamics, aiding in the selection of valves for patients with AS undergoing TAVR. Further larger-scale studies are warranted to confirm the prognostic significance of hemodynamic changes in these patients.

General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 71, 10, 552, 560, Oct. 2023, [Domestic magazines]
English, Scientific journal, PURPOSE: There is controversy regarding which internal thoracic artery (ITA) should be anastomosed to the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Here, we propose an optimal graft design based on measurement of blood flow in the ITA. METHODS: Sixty-one patients (53 men, median age 68 [62-75] years) undergoing first elective coronary artery bypass grafting were enrolled. Fifty-seven left ITAs (LITAs) and 28 right ITAs (RITAs) were harvested in either a semi-skeletonized manner using a harmonic scalpel covered with papaverine-soaked gauze (group-A, n = 45) or a fully skeletonized manner using electrocautery with intraluminal papaverine injection (group-B, n = 41). Free flow of 33 ITAs was measured after pharmacological dilatation and in situ ITA-LAD flow was measured in 59 patients by transit-time flowmetry. RESULTS: RITA and LITA free flow were 147.0 [87.8-213.0] mL/min and 108.0 [90.0-144.0] mL/min, respectively (P = 0.199). The group-B had significantly higher ITA free flow (135.0 [102.0-171.0] mL/min) than group-A (63.0 [36.0-96.0] mL/min, P = 0.009). In 13 patients with bilateral ITA harvesting, free flow of the RITA (138.0 [79.5-204.0] mL/min) was also significantly higher than the LITA (102.0 [81.0-138.0] mL/min, P = 0.046). There was no significant difference between RITA and LITA flow anastomosed to the LAD. The group-B had significantly higher ITA-LAD flow (56.5 [32.3-73.6] mL/min) than group-A (40.9 [20.1-53.7] mL/min, P = 0.023). CONCLUSION: RITA provides significantly higher free flow than LITA but similar blood flow to the LAD. Full skeletonization with intraluminal papaverine injection maximizes both free flow and ITA-LAD flow.

Reconstruction of right ventricular outflow tract with severe calcification: lantern procedure.

General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 24 Aug. 2023, [Domestic magazines]
English, Scientific journal, Right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction is repeatedly required after the Rastelli procedure. However, standard right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction using direct anastomosis on the posterior right ventricular outflow tract wall is unfeasible in cases with severe calcification. Herein, we present a novel technique called the "lantern procedure," which can fix the prosthetic pulmonary valve without anastomosis to the calcified right ventricular outflow tract wall.

Impact of Steroid on Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor During and After Cardiopulmonary Bypass.
Takashi Kunihara, Yasushige Shingu, Satoru Wakasa, Norihiko Shiiya, Satoshi Gando
ASAIO journal (American Society for Artificial Internal Organs : 1992), 69, 4, 391, 395, 01 Apr. 2023, [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a proinflammatory cytokine released in response to glucocorticoids, which counter-regulates the effects of glucocorticoids. This study was performed to determine the impact of steroids on the expression of MIF and other pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines during and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Twenty adult patients (10 men, 64 ± 8 years old) who underwent elective cardiac surgery by CPB were given either 2000 mg (group-H, n = 10) or 500 mg of methylprednisolone (group-L, n = 10) during CPB. The serum concentrations of MIF, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-8, IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) were measured at eight time points until 36 hours after skin closure. The early postoperative course was uneventful for all patients. There were no significant differences in duration of operation, CPB, or aortic cross-clamping (AXC) between the two groups. MIF and IL-10 levels peaked just after the conclusion of CPB and decreased gradually thereafter. IL-1β, IL-8, and TNF-α were undetectable throughout the study period. There were no significant differences in MIF or IL-10 levels between the two groups. Peak levels of MIF in all patients were significantly correlated with the duration of CPB and AXC, whereas no such correlation was observed for IL-10. MIF or IL-10 levels were significantly elevated during and after CPB, but there were no differences between the two doses of steroid administration. Both steroid doses sufficiently suppressed proinflammatory cytokines. MIF better reflected the invasiveness of the operation than IL-10.

Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 31 Mar. 2023, [Domestic magazines]
English, Scientific journal, We herein report the first case of constrictive pericarditis (CP) induced by long-term pergolide treatment for Parkinson's disease that was assessed using multimodal imaging in a 72-year-old patient with leg edema and dyspnea. The patient was correctly diagnosed with CP using multimodal imaging and successfully treated with pericardiectomy. The treatment history of Parkinson's disease and pathological findings of the removed pericardium suggested that long-term pergolide was the cause of CP. Properly recognizing pergolide as the cause of CP and accurately diagnosing CP using multimodal imaging may contribute to the early detection and treatment of pergolide-induced CP.

English, Scientific journal, Although measuring right ventricular (RV) function during exercise is more informative than assessing it at rest, the relationship between RV reserve function, exercise capacity, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) remains unresolved. We aimed to investigate whether RV reserve assessed by the change in RV stroke work index (RVSWI) during exercise is correlated with exercise capacity and HRQoL in patients with LVAD. We prospectively assessed 24 consecutive patients with LVAD who underwent invasive right heart catheterization in the supine position. Exercise capacity and HRQoL were assessed using the 6-min walk distance (6 MWD) and peak oxygen consumption (V̇o2) in cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and the EuroQol visual analog scale (EQ-VAS), respectively. The patients were divided into two groups according to the median ΔRVSWI (change from rest to peak exercise). Patients with lower ΔRVSWI had significantly lower changes in cardiac index and absolute value of RV dP/dt than those with higher ΔRVSWI. The ΔRVSWI was positively correlated with 6 MWD (r = 0.59, P = 0.003) and peak V̇o2 (r = 0.56, P = 0.006). In addition, ΔRVSWI was positively correlated with the EQ-VAS (r = 0.44, P = 0.030). In contrast, there was no significant correlation between RVSWI at rest and 6 MWD (r = -0.34, P = 0.88), peak V̇o2 (r = 0.074, P = 0.74), or EQ-VAS (r = 0.127, P = 0.56). Our findings suggest that the assessment of RV reserve function is useful for risk stratification in patients with LVAD.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The change in right ventricular stroke work index (RVSWI) during exercise, not RVSWI at rest, was associated with exercise capacity and HRQoL. Our findings suggest that the assessment of change in RVSWI during exercise as a surrogate of RV reserve function may aid in risk stratification of patients with LVAD.

English, Scientific journal, Iatrogenic arteriovenous fistula (AVF) rarely develops around the proximal subclavian artery, although open surgical repair of this etiology is known to be complicated as deep dissection is required around the fistula surrounded by dilated veins. In this study, we present the case of a 64-year-old man, who was referred to our hospital, with AVF between the right subclavian artery and the right vertebral vein. He had a history of accidental puncture of the right subclavian artery. An endovascular repair using a covered stent was successfully performed, and the AVF disappeared. Thus, covered stent placement should be considered as the first-line treatment for a deeply developed AVF, if anatomically feasible.

English, Scientific journal, Palliative surgery is often performed in the treatment of congenital heart disease. Two representative palliative procedures are the systemic pulmonary shunt and pulmonary artery banding. Dramatic changes in cerebral hemodynamics may occur in these operations due to changes in the pulmonary-to-systemic blood flow ratio and systemic oxygenation. However, there seem to be almost no studies evaluating them. Accordingly, we evaluated cerebral perfusion by transcranial Doppler ultrasonography and cerebral oxygenation by near infrared spectroscopy during these procedures. In the post hoc analysis of a previous prospective observational study, cerebral blood flow velocities of the middle cerebral artery measured by transcranial Doppler were compared between the start and end of surgery as were the pulsatility index and resistance index. The cerebral oxygenation values were also compared between the start and end of surgery. Twenty-two infants with systemic pulmonary shunt and 20 infants with pulmonary artery banding were evaluated. There were no significant differences of the flow velocities between the start and end of surgery in either procedure. The pulsatility index significantly increased after pulmonary artery banding, which may compete with the increase in cerebral perfusion due to the increase in systemic blood flow. The cerebral oxygenation decreased in both procedures, possibly due to an increase in body temperature. Arterial oxygen saturation was almost the same before and after both procedures. Contrary to our expectation, the changes in cerebral hemodynamics in the palliative operations were small if the management of physiological indices such as arterial oxygen saturation was properly performed during the procedures.

English, Scientific journal, A prolonged length of hospital stay (LOS) has become an important issue among patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery in our aging society. However, there are no established prediction models for a prolonged LOS. We therefore created a prediction model of a prolonged LOS using a deep learning software program (Prediction One; Sony Network Communications Inc., Tokyo, Japan) using preoperative data. Subjects were 157 patients (121 for training data, 36 for validation data). A prolonged LOS was defined as a more than 30-day postoperative stay due to physical inactivity. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and the accuracy of the model in the validation data were 0.806 and 67%, respectively. In conclusion, the preliminary model demonstrated acceptable performance for the prediction of a prolonged LOS after cardiovascular surgery.

English, Scientific journal, Background: Palpation of tumors during thoracoscopic surgery remains difficult, and identification of deep-seated tumors may be impossible. This preclinical study investigated the usefulness of a novel indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence spectroscopy system for tumor localization. Methods: ICG was diluted to 5.0×10-2 mg/mL in fetal bovine serum (FBS) and mixed with silicone resin to prepare pseudo-tumors. Sponges of different densities and a porcine lung were placed on top of the pseudo-tumors, which were examined using a novel fluorescence spectroscopy system and a near-infrared (NIR) camera. Spectra were measured for different sponge and lung thicknesses, and the lung spectra were measured during both inflation and deflation. Results: The fluorescence spectroscopy system was able to identify tumors at depths ≥15 mm, while the NIR system was not. The spectroscopy system also detected tumors at greater depths when the density of the intervening material was lower. Depending on the density and thickness of the intervening material, the system could detect spectra as deep as 40 mm for sponges and 30 mm for lungs. Conclusions: This new fluorescence spectroscopy system can be used to identify lung tumors up to a depth of 30 mm in experiments using pseudo-tumors and a porcine lung, which may aid in tumor identification during thoracoscopic surgery.

English, Scientific journal, PURPOSE: Several therapeutic agents have been found to prevent myocardial ischemic and reperfusion (I/R) injury after cardiac surgery; however, no drug is routinely used to afford cardioprotective benefits in clinical settings. Herein, we aimed to determine whether chloroquine (CQ) pretreatment attenuates I/R injury after global ischemia in isolated rat hearts and elucidate mechanisms underlying the effects of CQ. METHODS: Isolated rat hearts were subjected to 30-min global ischemia, followed by 60-min reperfusion with Krebs-Henseleit buffer (KHB). Immediately before ischemia, 10 mL of pretreatment solutions (KHB, n = 4 or KHB + CQ [100 μM], n = 4) were injected through the aortic root. Cardiac function was examined based on the rate pressure product (RPP). Myocardial apoptosis was evaluated using TUNEL staining. To assess the reperfusion ischemia salvage kinase pathway, protein expression levels of AKT and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) were determined using western blotting. To investigate the role of ERK1/2, an ERK1/2 selective inhibitor was used in eight additional rats. RESULTS: The recovery rate of the RPP was higher in the KHB + CQ group than in the KHB group 60 min after I/R (KHB, 44 ± 3% vs. KHB + CQ, 69 ± 7%; P = 0.019, d = 2.2). CQ pretreatment reduced apoptosis and enhanced the phosphorylation of ERK1/2; however, AKT phosphorylation was unaltered. In addition, the ERK1/2 inhibitor abolished CQ-mediated cardioprotective effects. CONCLUSIONS: CQ pretreatment showed protective effects on cardiac function after I/R by activating ERK1/2.

English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of preoperative diabetes on all-cause mortality and major postoperative complications among patients with continuous-flow left ventricular assist device (LVAD) by using data from a national database.Methods and Results: The 545 study patients who underwent primary HeartMateII implantation between 2013 and 2019 were divided into 2 groups according to their diabetes mellitus (DM) status; patients with DM (n=116) and patients without DM (n=429). First, the on-device survival and incidence of adverse events were evaluated. Second, after adjusting for patients' backgrounds, the change of laboratory data in the 2 groups were compared. Overall, on-device survival at 1, 2, and 3 years was almost equivalent between the 2 groups; it was 95%, 94%, and 91% in patients without DM, and 93%, 91%m and 91% in patients with DM (P=0.468) The incidence of adverse events was similar between 2 groups of patients, except for driveline exit site infection in the adjusted cohort. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis revealed younger age (HR: 0.98 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.97-0.99, P=0.001) and presence of DM (HR: 1.83 (95% CI: 1.14-2.88), P=0.016) as significant predictors of driveline infection. Laboratory findings revealed no differences between groups throughout the periods. CONCLUSIONS: The clinical results after LVAD implantation in DM patients were comparable with those in non-DM patients, except for the driveline exit site infection.

English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: Under the revised heart allocation system in the United States, bridge to transplant (BTT) patients with left ventricular assist device (LVAD) have a longer waitlist period, as they are now lowly prioritized. However, little is known regarding the long-term trajectory of functional capacity (FC) and health-related quality of life (HR-QOL) among BTT-LVAD patients. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 442 consecutive patients with BTT-LVAD between April 2013 and May 2019 from a Japanese nationwide registry. FC (New York Heart Association [NYHA] functional class, peak oxygen uptake [VO2], and 6-min walk test [6MWT]) and HR-QOL (European Quality of Life [EQ-5D index] and Visual Analogue Scale [EQ-VAS]) were assessed at baseline and for up to 60 months after LVAD implantation. RESULTS: During the follow-up period of 30 months (IQR 18-42 months), 100 (22.6%) patients underwent transplantation, 37 (8.3%) died, and 14 (3.1%) underwent explantation for recovery. Mean peak VO2, 6MWT distance, EQ-5D index, and EQ-VAS significantly improved 3 months after LVAD implantation (p = 0.0012, p = 0.0037, p < 0.001, p < 0.001, respectively). Furthermore, these improvements were sustained for up to 60 months following LVAD implantation. Major adverse events including device failure, infection, stroke, and bleeding, which occurred within the first 3 months after LVAD implantation may have not affected FC or HR-QOL for up to 60 months (p = 0.15, p = 0.22, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: BTT patients showed long-term preservation of FC and HR-QOL, suggesting that BTT remains an option despite the long waiting time to HTx.

Protective effects of trehalose preconditioning on cardiac and coronary endothelial function through eNOS signaling pathway in a rat model of ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Molecular and cellular biochemistry, 477, 10, 2403, 2414, 17 May 2022, [Peer-reviewed], [Last author], [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, Coronary endothelial dysfunction is a major cause of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Trehalose, a natural disaccharide, has been reported to ameliorate endothelial dysfunction during aging by activating endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS); however, its role in I/R injury is unknown. This study evaluated the effects of trehalose preconditioning on cardiac and coronary endothelial function after I/R. Langendorff-perfused rat hearts underwent 30 min of global ischemia followed by 80 min of reperfusion with or without trehalose preconditioning. Rate pressure product (RPP) and coronary flow (CF) were measured during reperfusion. Perivascular edema was assessed by hematoxylin and eosin staining. Myocardial oxidative stress and apoptosis were evaluated by immunohistochemistry and TUNEL staining, respectively. eNOS dimerization was determined by western blotting. An eNOS inhibitor was used to examine the role of eNOS. Trehalose preconditioning showed a higher recovery rate after I/R as indicated by high RPP (control vs. trehalose, 28 ± 6% vs. 46 ± 9%; P = 0.017, Cohen's d = 2.3) and CF values (35 ± 10% vs. 55 ± 9%; P = 0.025, d = 1.7). Furthermore, trehalose preconditioning reduced perivascular edema, myocardial oxidative stress, and apoptosis. The eNOS dimerization ratio was increased by trehalose (1.2 ± 0.2 vs. 1.6 ± 0.2; P = 0.023, d = 2.1), which was associated with the recovery of RPP and CF. These effects of trehalose were abolished by the eNOS inhibitor. Trehalose preconditioning showed protective effects on cardiac and coronary endothelial function after I/R through the eNOS signaling pathway.

English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: The change in myocardial protein degradation systems after ventricular unloading has been unknown. We aimed to evaluate the anti-hypertrophic protein adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and two major protein degradation systems (ubiquitin proteasome system and autophagy) in a model of surgical ventricular reconstruction (SVR) in rats with ischemic cardiomyopathy. METHODS AND RESULTS: Rats were randomized into the following groups: sham/sham (control group), myocardial infarction (MI)/sham (sham group) and MI/SVR (SVR group), with an interval of 4 weeks. Two (early, n = 5 for each) and 28 days (late, n = 5 for each) after SVR, ventricular size, and wall stress were assessed. Myocyte area, protein expression of AMPKα and autophagy markers, and gene expression of ubiquitin ligases (Atrogin-1 and Murf-1) were evaluated in the late phase. In the early phase, left ventricular dimensions and wall stress were smaller in the SVR group than in the sham group, whereas they were comparable in the late period. Myocyte area in the SVR group was reduced to the value in the control group, while it was larger in the sham group than in the control group. Total-AMPKα, p-AMPKα, and AMPKα phosphorylation rates were higher, and Atrogin-1 and Murf-1 were lower in the SVR group than in the sham group, while the autophagy markers were not different between the groups. p-AMPKα had strong negative correlations with myocyte area, Atrogin-1, and Murf-1. CONCLUSIONS: In myocyte reverse remodeling after SVR, AMPKα phosphorylation increased in association with reduced gene expression of ubiquitin ligases.

Bronchial artery hypertrophy-associated perioperative pulmonary hemorrhage in cardiovascular surgery: a case report.

Surgical case reports, 8, 1, 80, 80, 29 Apr. 2022, [Peer-reviewed], [Last author, Corresponding author], [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hemorrhage is a life-threatening complication of cardiovascular surgery. Bronchial artery hypertrophy, a rare pathology associated with inflammatory and ischemic respiratory diseases, increases the risk of pulmonary hemorrhage; however, its involvement in cardiovascular surgery is not well known. We present two cardiovascular surgical cases in which embolization of the hypertrophied bronchial artery was effective in controlling perioperative pulmonary hemorrhage. CASE PRESENTATION: The first case was a 51-year-old man with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who developed acute type A aortic dissection. After emergent surgery, his blood pressure suddenly dropped in the intensive care unit; computed tomography revealed a right hemothorax. Because a 4-mm dilated bronchial artery was identified on preoperative computed tomography, the hemothorax was suspected to be associated with bronchial artery hypertrophy. Selective bronchial arteriography was emergently performed and revealed a right pulmonary parenchymal blush. After subsequent coil embolization of the bronchial artery, the parenchymal blush disappeared, and his hemodynamic condition stabilized. The second case was a 66-year-old man with bronchiectasis who was referred for redo aortic valve replacement due to structural valve deterioration. A bioprosthesis was previously implanted to avoid permanent anticoagulation because the patient had repeated episodes of hemoptysis; however, he still had persistent hemosputum during admission for the redo aortic valve replacement. A dilated bronchial artery 3.7 mm in size was incidentally identified on preoperative computed tomography, and hence, the repeated hemosputum was suspected to be associated with bronchial artery hypertrophy. Bronchial arteriography revealed a right pulmonary parenchymal blush, and prophylactic embolization of the bronchial artery was performed. The hemosputum disappeared after the procedure, and redo aortic valve replacement was performed uneventfully 8 days later. CONCLUSION: In cardiovascular surgery, the risk of pulmonary hemorrhage associated with bronchial artery hypertrophy should be considered, especially in patients with inflammatory and ischemic respiratory diseases.

English, Scientific journal, Because a mechanical aortic valve is a contraindication for the implantation of left ventricular assist device, complicated additional procedures such as a replacement with a bioprosthesis and a closure of the left ventricular outflow tract are required to implant the device. Among such procedures, a sandwich plug technique using vascular clips is one of the simple and feasible procedures. However, this technique requires an off-label use of vascular clips within the aorta that could be associated with a risk of dislodgement and embolization. Thus, we developed a modified sandwich technique without using vascular clips, where the valve leaflets were fixed in the closed position using felt patches and sutures instead of vascular clips. This modified technique is a simple and secure method to close the mechanical aortic valve with the minimum use of artificial materials.

English, Scientific journal, Azygos vein aneurysm (AVA) is necessary to prevent pulmonary embolism due to the outflow of a thrombus or rupture of the aneurysm. However, there is no established modality to assess the properties of AVA. Time-resolved three-dimensional phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (4D-flow MRI) has been used to examine the hemodynamics in various fields. We report a case of AVA to evaluate the flow variability and adhesions of surrounding tissues using 4D-flow MRI. The findings of the study suggested aneurysm turbulence and the absence of thrombi. The cine image, which showed a sliding wall synchronized to the heartbeat, indicated no adhesion to the superior vena cava. Based on these results, the thoracoscopic approach was deemed possible preoperatively. Thoracoscopic AVA resection was performed, and the postoperative course was uneventful. This study documented the utility of 4D-flow MRI for a detailed evaluation of AVA.

General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 70, 6, 588, 590, 21 Mar. 2022, [Peer-reviewed], [Lead author, Corresponding author], [Domestic magazines]
English, Scientific journal, Hybrid repair of a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm comprising thoracic endovascular aortic repair and total renovisceral debranching is a feasible alternative to open repair, especially for high-risk patients. However, transperitoneal debranching is a relatively complicated procedure that requires deep dissection around vital abdominal organs. Therefore, we developed a new debranching technique called Chunnel debranching, which was characterized by transaortic tunneling using a covered stent between the target artery and the prosthetic graft anastomosed on the aneurysmal wall using an inclusion technique. This procedure increases the feasibility of renovisceral debranching with fewer dissections than conventional transperitoneal debranching.

English, Scientific journal, Recurrence of left ventricular (LV) remodeling after surgical ventricular reconstruction (SVR) for ischemic cardiomyopathy has been reported to be partially attributed to autophagy. We aimed to examine the effects of trehalose, an autophagy inducer, on the recurrence of LV remodeling after SVR. After SVR in rats with ICM, trehalose was orally administered. The changes in LV end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) and fractional shortening (FS) were evaluated. The activation of myocardial autophagy was also estimated by autophagy markers: microtubule-associated light chain 3 II (LC3-II) and p62; the former usually increases and the latter decreases if autophagy is activated. Significant LV reverse remodeling was observed early after SVR. On the other hand, the 28th postoperative day SVR + trehalose was associated with smaller LVEDD and better FS than SVR alone (LVEDD, P = 0.043; FS, P < 0.01). LC3-II increased comparably in both groups, while p62 was significantly lower in the SVR + trehalose group than in the SVR alone group (P < 0.01). In conclusion, trehalose attenuated the recurrence of LV remodeling and changed autophagy markers after SVR in rats with ICM. Trehalose may be a candidate for adjuvant therapy to retain the effects of SVR.

A Surgical Experience of Popliteal Venous Aneurysm Associated with Acute Pulmonary Thromboembolism
Yoshimoto Kimihiro, Wakasa Satoru
Japanese Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 51, 1, 53, 56, The Japanese Society for Cardiovascular Surgery, 15 Jan. 2022, [Peer-reviewed], [Last author]
Japanese, Popliteal venous aneurysm (PVA) is recognized as source of fatal pulmonary embolism ; surgical treatment is indicated. A 79-year-old woman presented with acute shortness of breath. A cardiac ultrasound echography showed right heart overload and pulmonary hypertension. A contrast enhanced CT revealed multiple pulmonary artery emboli and right popliteal venous aneurysm. She was immediately started anticoagulation therapy with oral factor Xa inhibitor and her dyspnea improved. As thrombus in venous aneurysm was considered the cause of the pulmonary embolism, we recommended surgical treatment. Tangential aneurysmectomy with lateral venorrhaphy for the saccular venous aneurysm was performed. Postoperative contrast enhanced CT showed good morphology and she was discharged without complication. Surgical treatment of symptomatic popliteal venous aneurysm is considered useful strategy.

English, Scientific journal, Mitral valvuloplasty using Gore-Tex as the artificial chordae is often associated with difficulties in determining the length of the artificial chordae, achieving the correct artificial chordae length, and preventing knot slippage, especially for beginners. We describe a simple technique involving a novel device called the "Mitral Plate," which enables surgeons to automatically determine the correct length of the artificial chordae and tie slippery knots without performing excessive saline tests.

English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is caused by left ventricular (LV) remodeling and subsequent tethering of the mitral valve (MV). If LV remodeling is irreversibly advanced, it could not be attenuated by the MV procedure alone, although the additional subvalvular procedure could induce LV reverse remodeling by forcibly reducing MV tethering. This study aimed to assess the anti-tethering effect of papillary muscle tugging approximation (PMTA) on LV reverse remodeling after mitral valve replacement (MVR) for non-ischemic FMR. METHODS: The study subjects were 19 patients who underwent MVR with and without PMTA [MVR + PMTA (n = 11) and MVR alone (n = 8), respectively] for non-ischemic FMR. The tethering distance (TD) and LV end-systolic volume (ESV) at the preoperative, postoperative, and follow-up periods were assessed in terms of their correlation and time-dependent changes. The intra-LV energy efficiency was also evaluated through vector flow mapping analysis. RESULTS: TD and ESV were comparable between both procedures preoperatively and did not change after MVR alone. In MVR + PMTA, however, a significant decrease was identified in TD and ESV at the early postoperative and follow-up periods, respectively [TD = 48, 30, and 31 mm (p < 0.001) and ESV = 159, 133, and 82 mL (p < 0.001) at the preoperative, postoperative, and follow-up periods, respectively]. Finally, at follow-up, the extent of change from the preoperative value in ESV significantly correlated with that in TD (ρ = 0.81, p < 0.001 for overall; ρ = 0.93, p < 0.001 for MVR + PMTA; ρ = 0.86, p = 0.011 for MVR alone). The ratio of TD to ESV was also significantly correlated with systolic energy loss to LV stroke work after MVR + PMTA (ρ = 0.81, p = 0.015). CONCLUSIONS: PMTA for non-ischemic FMR could induce LV reverse remodeling depending on the extent of postoperative TD reduction. A smaller TD to ESV was associated with a higher intra-LV energy efficiency after PMTA + MVR.

English, Scientific journal, Blunt tracheal injury is a rare but life-threatening condition. Several indications for treatment have been reported. Conservative treatment (i.e., stenting) can be performed when the patient is clinically stable or has medical contraindications to surgical treatment. Although some studies have reported the use of tracheal stents as treatment for iatrogenic injury and blunt trauma, the efficacy of these stents is unknown. Herein, we report a case of emergency tracheoplasty for the management of tracheal stent prolapse in a patient with blunt tracheobronchial trauma. This report highlights the necessity of being cautious about the migration and prolapse of tracheal stents, which can more frequently occur in blunt trauma than in malignant stenosis or iatrogenic injury. Due to the limitations of non-surgical treatments, early surgical intervention may be lifesaving.

English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: No useful tumor markers have been identified for the diagnosis of thymic carcinomas. Serum cytokeratin 19 fragment, measured using the CYFRA 21-1 immunoassay, is used as a tumor marker for squamous cell carcinomas in various malignant tumors. Here, we evaluated the value of CYFRA 21-1 in diagnosing thymic carcinoma. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 94 patients with pathological diagnoses of thymic carcinoma or thymoma (32 and 62 patients, respectively) who were referred to our departments between January 2000 and March 2019. Primary outcomes included tumor marker levels and their diagnostic accuracy. RESULTS: Patients with thymic carcinoma were significantly more likely to be male (thymic carcinoma, 68.8%; thymoma, 40.3%; p = 0.02), have an advanced TNM stage (p < 0.01), and a significantly higher CYFRA 21-1 level than those with thymoma (thymic carcinoma: median = 4.2 ng/ml; interquartile range [IQR] = 2.1-6.1 ng/ml vs. thymoma: median = 1.2 ng/ml; IQR = 0.9-1.7 ng/ml; p < 0.01). Receiver operating characteristic curves demonstrated that the area under the curve for CYFRA 21-1 to distinguish thymic carcinoma from thymoma was 0.86 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.74-0.93; cutoff = 2.7 ng/ml; sensitivity = 68.8%; specificity = 95.2%). Multivariable analysis demonstrated that CYFRA 21-1 (odds ratio = 25.6; 95% CI: 4.6-141.6; p < 0.01) was an independent predictor for thymic carcinoma after adjusting for TNM stage. CONCLUSIONS: Serum CYFRA 21-1 level may help in diagnosing thymic carcinoma.

English, Scientific journal, A 4-year-old boy with left intralobar pulmonary sequestration associated with left main coronary artery obstruction (LMCAO) and severe mitral regurgitation (MR) was admitted to our hospital. Since the patient presented with dyskinesia of the cardiac apex and increased left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), left main coronary artery reconstruction and mitral annuloplasty were performed. The enlargement of the left ventricle was improved after sequential surgeries. There was a risk of deterioration of MR and regrowth of LVEDV due to shunt blood flow; therefore, left lower lobectomy and aberrant artery division were performed. This is a very rare case of a patient with pulmonary sequestration associated with LMCAO and severe MR.

English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: Pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysms (PDAAs) are rare visceral aneurysms, and prompt intervention/treatment of all PDAAs is recommended at the time of diagnosis to avoid rupture of aneurysms. Herein, we report two cases of PDAA caused by the median arcuate ligament syndrome, treated with surgical revascularization by aortosplenic bypass followed by coil embolization. CASE PRESENTATION: Case 1 A 54-year-old woman presented with a chief complaint of severe epigastralgia and was diagnosed with two large fusiform inferior PDAAs and celiac axis occlusion. To preserve the blood flow of the pancreatic head, duodenum, liver, and spleen, we performed elective surgery to release the MAL along with aortosplenic bypass. At 6 days postoperatively, transcatheter arterial embolization was performed. At the 8-year 6-month follow-up observation, no recurrent perfusion of the embolized PDAAs or rupture had occurred, including the non-embolized small PDAA, and the bypass graft had excellent patency. Case 2 A 39-year-old man who had been in good health was found to have a PDAA with celiac stenosis during a medical checkup. Computed tomography and superior mesenteric arteriography showed severe celiac axis stenosis and a markedly dilated pancreatic arcade with a large saccular PDAA. To preserve the blood flow of the pancreatic arcade, we performed elective surgery to release the MAL along with aortosplenic bypass. At 9 days postoperatively, transcatheter arterial embolization was performed. At the 6-year 7-month follow-up observation, no recurrent perfusion or rupture of the PDAA had occurred, and the bypass graft had excellent patency. CONCLUSION: Combined treatment with bypass surgery and coil embolization can be an effective option for the treatment of PDAAs associated with celiac axis occlusion or severe stenosis.

English, Scientific journal, OBJECTIVE: Mitral subvalvular procedures in addition to restrictive annuloplasty are promising for ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR). However, the prevalence and efficacy of specific subvalvular repair in severe IMR have not been elucidated. This is the first nationwide survey regarding surgeons' attitudes toward IMR in Japan. METHODS: A questionnaire was sent to 543 institutions. From 2015 to 2019, numbers of elective first-time mitral valve replacement (MVR) with/without complete chordal preservation (CCP)/papillary muscle approximation (PMA) and mitral valvuloplasty (MVP) with/without papillary muscle relocation (PMR)/PMA in patients with severe IMR were collected. Concomitant procedures for coronary artery, tricuspid valve, and arrhythmia could be included but left ventricular reconstruction was excluded. RESULTS: Completed questionnaires were received from 286 institutions (52.7%). The majority (90%) had less than 20 cases within 5 years. The number of MVP (1413, 61.5%) surpassed MVR (886, 38.5%). CCP was performed in half of MVR (50.0%), while PMA was included in only 1.9% of MVR. PMA and PMR were also performed infrequently, in only 7.7% and 10.9% of MVP, respectively. CONCLUSION: Japanese surgeons aggressively perform MVP for severe IMR. Subvalvular repair was also aggressively performed in addition to MVR, but not to MVP. A multicenter registry study is in progress.

Japanese, Left isomerism is frequently associated with anomalous systemic venous connection and common atrium, requiring systemic venous abnormality correction and common-atrium septation in biventricular repair. Our case was a 4-year-old girl diagnosed with left isomerism, dextrocardia, complete atrioventricular septal defect, common atrium, bilateral superior vena cava, and interruption of the inferior vena cava with hemiazygos vein connection. She underwent intracardiac repair with intra-atrial rerouting. Preoperative computed tomography suggested that extracardiac reconstruction of the anomalous systemic vein was inappropriate, and showed that all the pulmonary veins drain to the common chamber in the common atrium. Thus, the blood flow from the right superior vena cava was diverted into the left side of the common atrium through an intra-atrial tunnel. Complete atrioventricular septal defect was repaired with modified one-patch method, and the patch divided the common atrium into the right and left atria. She was discharged on postoperative day 11 without obstruction in systemic and pulmonary venous return. Therefore, if all the pulmonary veins drain to the common chamber, intra-atrial rerouting may effectively correct anomalous systemic venous connection in the septation of the common atrium.

English, Scientific journal, INTRODUCTION: Stiff-person syndrome (SPS) is a rare autoimmune neurological disorder. Paraneoplastic SPS associated with malignant tumors such as thymoma occurs in approximately 5% of all SPS cases. We present a rare case of thymoma accompanied by SPS successfully treated using surgery. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 26-year-old woman presented with lower limbs convulsions and gait disturbance and complained of leg pain. Cerebrospinal fluid and blood test results showed a high level of anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) antibodies. Computed tomography showed anterior mediastinal tumor suggestive of a thymoma. She underwent extended thymectomy, and her symptoms gradually improved after surgery. No evidence of recurrent thymoma and SPS has been observed over 44 months. CONCLUSION: Surgical treatment would be effective for patients with SPS and thymoma.

Journal of cardiovascular magnetic resonance : official journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 23, 1, 81, 81, 28 Jun. 2021, [Peer-reviewed], [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: Pre- and post-procedural hemodynamic changes which could affect adverse outcomes in aortic stenosis (AS) patients who undergo transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) have not been well investigated. Four-dimensional (4D) flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) enables accurate analysis of blood flow dynamics such as flow velocity, flow pattern, wall shear stress (WSS), and energy loss (EL). We sought to examine the changes in blood flow dynamics of patients with severe AS who underwent TAVR. METHODS: We examined 32 consecutive severe AS patients who underwent TAVR between May 2018 and June 2019 (17 men, 82 ± 5 years, median left ventricular ejection fraction 61%, 6 self-expanding valve), after excluding those without CMR because of a contraindication or inadequate imaging from the analyses. We analyzed blood flow patterns, WSS and EL in the ascending aorta (AAo), and those changes before and after TAVR using 4D flow CMR. RESULTS: After TAVR, semi-quantified helical flow in the AAo was significantly decreased (1.4 ± 0.6 vs. 1.9 ± 0.8, P = 0.002), whereas vortical flow and eccentricity showed no significant changes. WSS along the ascending aortic circumference was significantly decreased in the left (P = 0.038) and left anterior (P = 0.033) wall at the basal level, right posterior (P = 0.011) and left (P = 0.010) wall at the middle level, and right (P = 0.012), left posterior (P = 0.019) and left anterior (P = 0.028) wall at the upper level. EL in the AAo was significantly decreased (15.6 [10.8-25.1 vs. 25.8 [18.6-36.2]] mW, P = 0.012). Furthermore, a significant negative correlation was observed between EL and effective orifice area index after TAVR (r = - 0.38, P = 0.034). CONCLUSIONS: In severe AS patients undergoing TAVR, 4D flow CMR demonstrates that TAVR improves blood flow dynamics, especially when a larger effective orifice area index is obtained.

English, Scientific journal, INTRODUCTION: Pneumatosis intestinalis (PI) is a rare but critical condition in which gas is found in the bowel wall. Although organ transplant recipients have an increased PI risk because of long-term immunosuppression, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors (α-GI), a standard diabetes therapy, often contribute to PI. However, little is known about the postorgan transplantation relationship between PI and α-GI. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of PI in a lung transplant recipient treated with α-GI. CASE REPORT: A 59-year-old man underwent hybrid (living-donor and cadaveric) lung transplantation (LTx). The patient was treated with prednisolone and tacrolimus as immunosuppressive therapy and α-GI for diabetes for 4 years. He developed asymptomatic PI 1031 days after transplantation without any acute abdominal finding. After excluding other possible causes of PI, his PI was attributed to α-GI. The suspected α-GI was immediately withdrawn. The patient was managed conservatively with bowel rest and oxygen therapy. After 11 days of α-GI discontinuation, PI improved, and the patient completely recovered. CONCLUSION: Physicians should keep this rare adverse drug reaction in mind when prescribing α-GI, particularly in patients with diabetes after organ transplantation and including LTx. The management strategy for asymptomatic PI caused by α-GI is the immediate discontinuation of α-GI therapy, followed by conservative management initiation.

Journal of cancer research and clinical oncology, 147, 5, 1519, 1527, May 2021, [Peer-reviewed], [Last author], [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, PURPOSE: This study aimed to establish new criteria for limited resection of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) based on computed tomography findings and maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax). METHODS: Between December 2007 and December 2015, 611 patients underwent lung cancer surgery; of these, 70 with cT1aN0M0 who underwent limited resection were enrolled. Criteria for undergoing intentional limited resection (ILR) were (1) tumor ground-glass opacity (GGO) ratio of ≥ 0.75 and (2) tumor SUVmax ≤ 1.5. Patients who met criteria (1) and (2) underwent partial resection, and those who only met criteria (2) underwent segmentectomy as ILR. The control group was subjected to limited surgery without meeting the criteria. RESULTS: Overall, 45 and 25 patients who met the criteria were included in the ILR and control groups, respectively. In the ILR group, 13 patients underwent partial resection, and 32 underwent segmentectomy; in the control group, 18 patients underwent partial resection and 7 underwent segmentectomy. According to our criteria, no relapsed cases occurred in the ILR group, although six patients showed recurrence of lung cancer in the control group. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rates in the ILR and control groups were 100% and 67.7%, respectively, and the relapse-free survival (RFS) rates were 100% and 61.6%, respectively. The log-rank test showed that this difference was statistically significant (OS: P < 0.0001, RFS: P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: SUVmax may serve as a predictive marker of recurrence to determine the treatment strategy for patients with NSCLC. Patients with low GGO ratio and low SUVmax may be cured by limited resection.

English, Scientific journal, Autophagy is an intracellular pathway that degrades unnecessary proteins and organelles and provides energy substrates during cellular ischemic conditions. Although pharmacological myocardial preconditioning with an autophagy inducer has been reported to protect cells against ischemic reperfusion (I/R), the effects of preconditioning using naturally occurring substances are still unknown. We aimed to examine whether autophagic preconditioning with trehalose improves cardiac function after myocardial stunning by global ischemia in rats. Rat hearts were perfused by oxygenized Krebs Henseleit (KH) solution in Langendorff system. Ten rats were randomized into the following two groups according to the perfusates during the preconditioning: control (KH solution only, n = 5) and trehalose (KH + 2% trehalose, n = 5). After the 35-min preconditioning period and subsequent 20 min of global ischemia, the hearts were reperfused for 60 min. Cardiac function was assessed during the reperfusion. To evaluate autophagy, myocardial protein expression of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3) II was evaluated by western blotting. During I/R, a systolic functional parameter, maximum dP/dt was significantly higher; meanwhile, coronary flow tended to be higher in the trehalose group than in the control group. Myocardial LC3-II expression after preconditioning was higher in the trehalose group than in the control group and decreased to the control level after I/R. In conclusion, in a rat model of global myocardial ischemia, trehalose preconditioning improved cardiac function during I/R. Further studies would be needed to identify the mechanism and effects of trehalose preconditioning.

English, Scientific journal, OBJECTIVES: There is uncertainty over the efficacy of additional surgical ventricular reconstruction (SVR) associated with mitral valve operation for non-ischaemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). This study aims to assess mid-term outcomes of these non-heart transplant surgical approaches for DCM. METHODS: We reviewed retrospectively 106 patients (median age 64, 44 females) who underwent isolated mitral annular plasty (MAP; n = 34), mitral valve replacement (MVR; n = 29), and SVR associated with MAP (SVR + MAP; n = 43) for DCM, in 11 Japanese hospitals. We analysed mid-term outcomes, specifically freedom from cardiac death and cardiac event. RESULTS: Hospital deaths occurred in 16 patients (15.1%) and cardiac deaths in 36 patients (34.0%) during the study period of 4.4 ± 3.5 years. Freedom from cardiac death at 7 years in patients undergoing MAP, MVR, and SVR + MAP were, respectively, 79.1%, 82.6%, and 29.5% (P < 0.0001). Freedom from cardiac event at 7 years in patients undergoing MAP, MVR, and SVR + MAP were, respectively, 42.8%, 59.9%, 22.6% (P = 0.0004). In the multivariable analyses, preoperative tricuspid regurgitation (TR) grade was the only risk factor for both cardiac death and event, whereas MVR for DCM emerged as a protective factor for cardiac event. CONCLUSIONS: This study could not show any benefit of additional SVR, by means of volume reduction, to MAP, because the baseline characteristics were different even after the stratification of DCM grade. MVR can be performed with favorable mid-term outcomes even in patients with advanced DCM, while patients undergoing MAP with/without SVR had more frequent MR recurrence or cardiac events. Interestingly, the right ventricular feature is a predictor of both cardiac death and events, with the TR grade being a predictor of poor mid-term outcomes.

General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 69, 11, 1460, 1466, 10 Mar. 2021, [Peer-reviewed], [Last author, Corresponding author], [Domestic magazines]
English, Scientific journal, OBJECTIVES: L-Carnitine, a quaternary amine, improves fatty acid metabolism in the heart and has anti-inflammatory effects. Several studies have reported the efficacy of L-carnitine for the prophylaxis of arrhythmia. We assessed the clinical effectiveness of L-carnitine in preventing postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) in aortic valve surgery. METHODS: Thirty patients who underwent aortic valve surgery were included. Fifteen patients had no prophylaxis other than conventional measures (control), while 15 patients received oral L-carnitine for 9 days (daily dose of 3 g). The incidence of POAF during 1 week after surgery was compared between the two groups. The multivariable logistic regression analysis for POAF was performed using the pre- and intraoperative parameters. RESULTS: Preoperative characteristics and operative data were comparable between the groups. The POAF rate was significantly lower in the L-carnitine group than in the control (20% and 60%, respectively; P = 0.025). L-Carnitine use was an independently negative predictor for POAF (odds ratio 0.067; 95% confidence interval 0.006-0.768). CONCLUSIONS: L-Carnitine administration may have potential for the prevention of POAF in aortic valve surgery.

English, Scientific journal, Mucin 1 (MUC1) expression is upregulated in multiple types of cancer, including lung cancer. However, the conventional anti-MUC1 antibody is not useful for the differentiation of malignant lung tumors and benign lesions due to its limited specificity. Our previous study screened a novel epitope-defined antibody against cancer-associated sugar chain structures that specifically recognizes the MUC1 Tn antigen (MUC1-Tn ED Ab). In the present study, its potential utility as a diagnostic marker and therapeutic tool for lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) was examined. Immunohistochemical analysis of a lung ADC tissue microarray was performed using the MUC1-Tn ED Ab (clone SN-102), and the results were compared with those of another clone and commercially available MUC1 antibodies. The association between positive immunoreactivity of SN-102 and clinicopathologic factors was analyzed. Furthermore, the association between MUC1-Tn expression and epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers and radiological characteristics was analyzed. Moderate or high MUC1-Tn expression (MUC1-Tn-H) was observed in 138 (78.9%) of the 175 lung ADC cases. MUC1-Tn-H was associated with male sex, cigarette smoking, tumor extension, pleural invasion, and higher preoperative serum carcinoembryonic antigen and cytokeratin 19 fragment levels. Tumors with MUC1-Tn-H had higher consolidation/tumor ratios according to computed tomography and greater uptakes of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose. A total of 46 (26.9%) of the tumors had mesenchymal features, and MUC1-Tn positivity was higher in the mesenchymal group than in the epithelial and intermediate groups (P<0.01 and P<0.01, respectively). Patients with tumors exhibiting MUC1-Tn-H had significantly shorter 5-year overall and disease-free survival times (P=0.011 and P<0.001, respectively). Additionally, MUC1-Tn-H was identified as an independent prognostic factor in multivariate analysis (P=0.024). MUC1-Tn is specific for lung cancer cells and can improve diagnostic capabilities. Additionally, it may be a potential therapeutic target in lung ADC.

English, Scientific journal, Background: Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has become a standard approach for the treatment of lung cancer. However, its minimally invasive nature limits the field of view and reduces tactile feedback. These limitations make it vital that surgeons thoroughly familiarize themselves with the patient's anatomy preoperatively. We have developed a virtual reality (VR) surgical navigation system using head-mounted displays (HMD). The aim of this study was to investigate the potential utility of this VR simulation system in both preoperative planning and intraoperative assistance, including support during thoracoscopic sublobar resection. Methods: Three-dimensional (3D) polygon data derived from preoperative computed tomography data was loaded into BananaVision software developed at Colorado State University and displayed on an HMD. An interactive 3D reconstruction image was created, in which all the pulmonary structures could be individually imaged. Preoperative resection simulations were performed with patient-individualized reconstructed 3D images. Results: The 3D anatomic structure of pulmonary vessels and a clear vision into the space between the lesion and adjacent tissues were successfully appreciated during preoperative simulation. Surgeons could easily evaluate the real patient's anatomy in preoperative simulations to improve the accuracy and safety of actual surgery. The VR software and HMD allowed surgeons to visualize and interact with real patient data in true 3D providing a unique perspective. Conclusions: This initial experience suggests that a VR simulation with HMD facilitated preoperative simulation. Routine imaging modalities combined with VR systems could substantially improve preoperative planning and contribute to the safety and accuracy of anatomic resection.

English, Scientific journal, A 33-year-old man with left pulmonary sequestration was admitted to our hospital. We planned left basilar segmentectomy to preserve the lung function, using indocyanine green (ICG) and near-infrared thoracoscopy. The intravenous (IV) administration of ICG (0.1 mg/kg) showed the distribution of fluorescence from the aberrant arteries, blood flow blockage from the aberrant arteries after they were divided, and the superior-basal boundary after the pulmonary artery and vein were divided. In adult patients with intralobar pulmonary sequestration, ICG and near-infrared thoracoscopic techniques are useful to confirm abnormal hemodynamics and demonstrate a safe and successful basilar segmentectomy.

Japanese,

We report a case of multiple papillary fibroelastoma (PFE) on the aortic valve. A healthy woman in her 60 s was referred to a nearby doctor with the chief complaint of palpitation and was admitted to our hospital for detailed examination. A mobile tumor was found by transthoracic echo, and she was introduced to us. We undertook excision surgery for her. Initially, it was thought to be a single tumor, and a pedunculated tumor adhering to the central aortic side of the left coronary cusp with a length of 7 mm was removed. After closing the aorta, we recognized a remaining mobile tumor by transesophageal echo. We decided to perform cardiac arrest again, and we recognized one tumor with 6 mm long string-like mobile mass on the right and non-coronary commissure of cardiac side, and a thorn-like mass of about 1.5 mm on the non-coronary cusp of the cardiac side. We removed both tumors from the aortic valve using shaving resection and preserved the aortic valve. All of these were found to be PFE pathologically as if they were three tumors that followed the developmental stage of PFE. After surgery, PFE recurrence is extremely rare. In the case of a pedunculated tumor, it is possible to remove the tumor and preserve the valve. However, as in this case, if both sides of the valve were not carefully inspected, it can be overlooked. In addition, small tumor resection could avoid the risk of new cerebral infarction and myocardial infarction due to recurrence and could avoid reoperation.

English, Persistent fifth aortic arch (AA) is a rare anomaly in congenital heart disease, which is often associated with aortic obstructive diseases. We report a 7-month-old infant diagnosed with persistent fifth AA with left ventricular dysfunction along with left bronchial malacia due to compression from their own heart. Surgical repair was performed, including AA reconstruction using the fifth AA as an in situ flap to enlarge the fourth AA with end-to-end anastomosis, and external stenting for the left bronchial malacia. Postoperative courses were uneventful. On computed tomography, a reconstructed AA without obstruction and an expanded left bronchus were seen.

Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 15, 1, 229, 229, 28 Aug. 2020, [Peer-reviewed], [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, BACKGROUND: Given the difficulty in preoperatively diagnosing lymph node metastasis, patients with Stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are likely to be included in the clinical N1 (cN1) group. However, better treatment options might be selected through further stratification. This study aimed to identify preoperative clinicopathological prognostic and stratification factors for patients with cN1 NSCLC. METHODS: This retrospective study evaluated 60 patients who were diagnosed with NSCLC during 2004-2014. Clinical nodal status had been evaluated using routine chest computed tomography (CT) and/or positron emission tomography (PET). To avoid biasing the fluorodeoxyglucose uptake values based on inter-institution or inter-model differences, we used only two PET systems (one PET system and one PET/CT system). Relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were the primary study outcomes. The maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) was calculated for each tumor and categorized as low or high based on the median value. Patient sex, age, histology, tumor size, and tumor markers were also assessed. RESULTS: Poor OS was associated with older age (P = 0.0159) and high SUVmax values (P = 0.0142). Poor RFS was associated with positive carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) expression (P = 0.0035) and high SUVmax values (P = 0.015). Multivariate analyses confirmed that poor OS was independently predicted by older age (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.751, confidence interval [CI]: 1.300-5.822; P = 0.0081) and high SUVmax values (HR = 5.121, 95% CI: 1.759-14.910; P = 0.0027). Furthermore, poor RFS was independently predicted by positive CEA expression (HR = 2.376, 95% CI: 1.056-5.348; P = 0.0366) and high SUVmax values (HR = 2.789, 95% CI: 1.042-7.458; P = 0.0410). The primary tumor's SUVmax value was also an independent prognostic factor for both OS and RFS. CONCLUSIONS: For patients with cN1 NSCLC, preoperative prognosis and stratification might be performed based on CEA expression, age, and the primary tumor's SUVmax value. To enhance the prognostic value of the primary tumor's SUVmax value, minimizing bias between facilities and models could lead to a more accurate prognostication.

The Journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 19 Feb. 2020, [Peer-reviewed], [International Magazine]
English, Scientific journal, OBJECTIVES: Myocardial autophagy has been recognized as an important factor in heart failure. It is not known whether changes in ventricular geometry by left ventriculoplasty influence autophagy in ischemic cardiomyopathy. We hypothesized that myocardial autophagy plays an important role in left ventricular (LV) redilation after ventriculoplasty. METHODS: Four weeks after ligation of the left anterior descending artery, ventriculoplasty or sham operation was performed. The animals were euthanized at 2 days (early) or 28 days (late) after the second operation. Ventricular autophagy was evaluated by protein expression of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 II, an autophagosome marker. Cardiomyocyte area was assessed by histologic examination. LV function was evaluated by echocardiography. To examine the implications of autophagy, an autophagy inhibitor (3-methyladenine) was injected intraperitoneally for 3 weeks before sacrifice. RESULTS: The LV was reduced in size early and redilated late after ventriculoplasty. LV systolic function was improved early and later worsened after ventriculoplasty. Light chain 3 II expression decreased early after ventriculoplasty and increased in the late period. Myocyte area increased from the early to late stage after ventriculoplasty. Autophagic inhibition exaggerated the increased myocyte hypertrophy and LV redilation. CONCLUSIONS: In a rat model of myocardial infarction, autophagy decreased early after ventriculoplasty and increased again during LV redilation. These results provide new insights into the mechanism underlying the late failure of ventriculoplasty.

English, Scientific journal, OBJECTIVES: The slope in the preload recruitable stroke work relationship is a highly linear, load-insensitive contractile parameter. However, the perioperative change of the slope has not been reported before. We examined the perioperative slope from a steady-state single beat in patients with functional mitral regurgitation and assessed the correlation with brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels. METHODS: The study included 16 patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy and refractory heart failure: 10 patients underwent mitral valve plasty and left ventricular plasty (MVP + LVP group) and 6 patients who underwent mitral valve replacement and papillary muscle tugging approximation (MVR + PMTA group). The left ventricular ejection fraction was assessed by the modified Simpson method; the slope was assessed by the single-beat technique using transthoracic echocardiography. BNP levels were measured by chemiluminescent immunoassay. RESULTS: The left ventricular ejection fraction and slope did not significantly change from pre- to early post-surgery in the MVP + LVP group. Both the left ventricular ejection fraction and slope significantly increased 6 months after surgery in the MVR + PMTA group. Postoperative BNP level was low in the MVR + PMTA group. While the postoperative left ventricular ejection fraction did not correlate with BNP levels, the postoperative slope significantly correlated with BNP level after surgery in the MVP + LVP group and in the total functional mitral regurgitation group. CONCLUSIONS: The change of slope was dependent on surgical procedures. In functional mitral regurgitation, the slope may be a more sensitive parameter in reflecting the left ventricular contractile function than the left ventricular ejection fraction.

English, Scientific journal, Transvalvular leakage (TVL) of a prosthetic heart valve is not negligible regurgitant flow in patients with critically low contractile function. Although the opening function of prosthetic valves has been reported, its closing function is not well understood. A man in his 70 s had a history of mitral valve replacement (MVR) with a Magna Mitral® valve for ischemic mitral valve regurgitation. He presented with dyspnea 2 years postoperatively. Echocardiography showed moderate TVL. The pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and cardiac index were 37 mmHg and 1.65 L/min/m2, respectively. Because we considered his TVL relevant, we performed re-do MVR with a mechanical valve and papillary muscle approximation and suspension ("papillary muscle tugging approximation"). His cardiac function improved postoperatively; he was discharged with New York Heart Association class I. For MVR in patients with critically low contractile function, prosthetic valves, such as mechanical valves, with small TVL are recommended.

English, Scientific journal, Ideally, an annuloplasty ring's shape should be changed intraoperatively if mitral valve repair is unsuccessful because of a short coaptation length or systolic anterior motion. Several post-implantation adjustable rings have been developed, but they are not freely deformable and are unsuitable for asymmetric repair of the valvular annulus. We developed a novel thermally deformable mitral annuloplasty ring to address these problems and assessed the ring's mechanical properties and its effect on the mitral valve anatomy. This ring was made of polycaprolactone. Tensile and bending tests were performed to evaluate the ring's mechanical properties. The ratio of the transverse and septal-lateral length was determined as 4:3. Using 10 pig hearts, we measured the post-deformation coaptation length and minimum distance from the coaptation to the ventricular septum, which is a factor of abnormal systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve. In the mechanical tests, the ring's yield point was greater than the deformation force of the annulus in humans. In pigs with deformation from "4:3" to "4:2", the coaptation length was significantly increased in each mitral valve part. In pigs with deformation from "4:3" to "4:4", the minimum distance from the coaptation to the ventricular septum was significantly increased. Asymmetrical ring deformation increased the coaptation length only at the deformed area. In conclusion, this new thermally deformable mitral annuloplasty ring could be "order-made" to effectively change the coaptation length in all parts of the mitral valve and the distance from the coaptation to septum post-deformation via intraoperative heating.

English, Scientific journal, Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), a source of adipokines, is metabolically active, but the role of EAT mitochondria in coronary artery disease (CAD) has not been established. We investigated the association between EAT mitochondrial respiratory capacity, adiponectin concentration in the EAT, and coronary atherosclerosis. EAT samples were obtained from 25 patients who underwent elective cardiac surgery. Based on the coronary angiographycal findings, the patients were divided into two groups; coronary artery disease (CAD; n = 14) and non-CAD (n = 11) groups. The mitochondrial respiratory capacities including oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) capacity with non-fatty acid (complex I and complex I + II-linked) substrates and fatty acids in the EAT were significantly lowered in CAD patients. The EAT mitochondrial OXPHOS capacities had a close and inverse correlation with the severity of coronary artery stenosis evaluated by the Gensini score. Intriguingly, the protein level of adiponectin, an anti-atherogenic adipokine, in the EAT was significantly reduced in CAD patients, and it was positively correlated with the mitochondrial OXPHOS capacities in the EAT and inversely correlated with the Gensini score. Our study showed that impaired mitochondrial OXPHOS capacity in the EAT was closely linked to decreased concentration of adiponectin in the EAT and severity of coronary atherosclerosis.

English, Scientific journal, Regional cardiac function analysis is important for the diagnosis and treatment planning of ischemic heart disease, but has not been sufficiently developed in the field of computed tomography (CT). Therefore, we propose a 3D endocardial tracking framework for cardiac CT using local point cloud registration based on the iterative closest point with an integrated scale estimation algorithm. We also introduce regional function descriptors that express the curvature and stretching of the endocardium: Surface distortion (E) and Scaling rate (S). For a region-to-region comparison, we propose endocardial segmentation according to coronary perfusion territories defined by the Voronoi partition based on coronary distribution. Our study of 65 endocardial segments in ten subjects showed that global endocardial deformation has a positive relationship with the stroke volume index (r  =  0.896 and 0.829 in [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively) and ejection fraction (r  =  0.804 and 0.835), and a positive relationship with the brain natriuretic peptide level (r  =  0.690 and 0.776). A positive relationship between segmental E and S (r  =  0.845), a higher value of E in ischemic segments (p   =  0.021) that are determined by fractional flow reserve estimated from coronary CT data, and a higher value of S in the left circumflex artery territory (p   <  0.05) were also observed. The required radiation dose was 5.0  ±  0.7 mSv and the computation time was 7.2  ±  1.1 min. The result suggests that proposed endocardial deformation analysis using CT can be conducted on site and in time for the acute setting, and may be useful for the diagnosis of cardiac dysfunction or myocardial ischemia.

English, Scientific journal, OBJECTIVES: The postoperative left ventricular end-systolic volume index and ejection fraction are benchmarks of surgical ventricular reconstruction but remain unpredictable. This study aimed to identify who could be associated with a higher long-term survival by adding surgical ventricular reconstruction to coronary artery bypass grafting than coronary artery bypass grafting alone (responders to surgical ventricular reconstruction). METHODS: The subjects were 293 patients (median age, 63 years; 255 men) who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting for ischemic heart disease with left ventricular dysfunction in 16 cardiovascular centers in Japan. The relationships among surgical ventricular reconstruction, postoperative end-systolic volume index, ejection fraction, and survival were analyzed to identify responders to surgical ventricular reconstruction. RESULTS: Surgical ventricular reconstruction was performed in 165 patients (56%). The end-systolic volume index and ejection fraction significantly improved (end-systolic volume index, 91 to 64 mL/m2; ejection fraction, 28% to 35%) for all patients. The postoperative end-systolic volume index and ejection fraction were estimated, and surgical ventricular reconstruction was found to be significantly associated with both end-systolic volume index (14.5 mL/m2 reduction, P < .001) and ejection fraction (3.1% increase, P = .003). During the median follow-up of 6.8 years, 69 patients (24%) died. Only the postoperative ejection fraction was significantly associated with survival (hazard ratio, 0.925; 95% confidence interval, 0.885-0.968), although this effect was limited to those with postoperative end-systolic volume index of 40 to 80 mL/m2 in the subgroup analysis (hazard ratio, 0.932; 95% confidence interval, 0.894-0.973). CONCLUSIONS: Adding surgical ventricular reconstruction to coronary artery bypass grafting could reduce the mortality risk by increasing ejection fraction for those with a postoperative end-systolic volume index within a specific range. The postoperative end-systolic volume index could demarcate responders to surgical ventricular reconstruction, and its estimation can help in surgical decision making.

After a bidirectional Glenn procedure, he presented with severe oxygen desaturation and right ventricular dysfunction; the left superior vena cava drained into the inferior vena cava through collateral veins. As salvage therapy, we created a modified total cavopulmonary shunt using only autologous tissue in which the right hepatic vein and inferior vena cava drained into the pulmonary artery via a lateral tunnel in the right atrium. Immediately after surgery, his oxygen saturation increased and right ventricular function improved.

English, Scientific journal, Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a complex autoimmune disease often related to systemic lupus erythematosus. Although adequate anticoagulation is important for APS patients during cardiopulmonary bypass, clotting tests can be potentially misleading due to antiphospholipid antibodies. We performed cardiac surgery safely in two APS patients under anticoagulation monitoring determined using preoperative heparin titration. We performed heparin titration for activated clotting time to determine the appropriate heparin concentration during cardiac surgery. We changed the targeted heparin concentration considering each patient's thrombotic risks: 3 U/ml of heparin for a normal-risk APS patient and 5 U/ml for a high-risk APS patient with a history of antiphospholipid-antibody-associated thrombocytopenia. A higher targeted heparin concentration might be necessary for patients with high thrombotic risks.

English, BACKGROUND: To examine the results of myectomy and mitral valve surgery for systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the mitral valve and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) with a relatively thin interventricular septum. METHODS: The subjects were 12 patients with SAM and LVOTO. Eight had hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) with a mean interventricular septal thickness of 16 mm. Three had sigmoid septum and one had an unknown etiology. For HOCM, isolated extended myectomy was performed when mitral regurgitation was mild (n = 1) and extended myectomy plus mitral valve surgery was performed when mitral regurgitation was more than mild (n = 4) or primary valve etiologies existed (n = 3). Myectomy was performed for the three cases with sigmoid septum. Myectomy plus height reduction of the posterior mitral leaflet was performed for the one case with the unknown etiology of SAM. RESULTS: In the patients with HOCM, the maximum LVOT pressure gradient significantly decreased from 140 ± 18 to 16 ± 6 and 3 ± 3 mm Hg, while mitral regurgitation significantly decreased from 2.3 ± 0.5 to 0.5 ± 0.3 and 0.4 ± 0.2 at pre-op, early post-op, and last follow-up (3 ± 1 years), respectively. In the other etiologies, the maximum LVOT pressure gradient changed from 56 ± 15 to 25 ± 15 and 5 ± 4 mm Hg; mitral regurgitation changed from 2.0 ± 0.6 to 1.3 ± 0.3 and 1.3 ± 0.8, at pre-op, early post-op, and the last follow-up (3 ± 2 years), respectively. CONCLUSION: Myectomy with mitral valve surgery is an option for SAM and LVOTO in patients with a relatively thin interventricular septum.

Japanese,

Surgical cases for pulmonary artery aneurysm after palliative operation for congenital heart disease are rare. A man in his 40s underwent Waterston operation (side-side anastomosis of the ascending aorta and right pulmonary artery) for pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect at the age of one. Medical follow-up was continued at a local clinic without definitive repair. He had complained of exertional dyspnea and cough for one month. CT scan on admission showed a large right pulmonary artery aneurysm and atelectasis of the right lung. An urgent operation was planned for the huge pulmonary artery aneurysm. Under cardiac arrest, the proximal end-to-side anastomosis to the aorta was conducted using a Y-shaped vascular prosthesis at the previous Waterston anastomosis. The peripheral pulmonary arteries were reconstructed by inclusion technique. Percutaneous cardiopulmonary support was necessary for one day after operation due to unstable hemodynamics. He was extubated on postoperative day (POD) 4 and transferred to our general ward on POD 5. He was discharged home on POD 38. He is now free from heart failure symptoms and recurrence of aneurysm one year after surgery. Careful follow-up is necessary for the dilatation of the pulmonary artery and aortic root. A definitive operation—Rastelli and closure of the ventricular septal defect—may be considered in the future if the pulmonary artery resistance is suitable for the repair.

English, BACKGROUND: The indications of left-ventricular plication (LVP) are controversial, although several studies have reported favorable outcomes in heart failure patients. The aim of this study was to assess left-ventricular (LV) wall stress and myocardial remodeling after LVP in a rat model of myocardial infarction (MI). METHODS: Sixteen rats underwent LVP by excluding the LV anterior wall scar 4 weeks after ligation of the left anterior descending artery. After 4 weeks, LV wall stress was assessed using transthoracic echocardiography and an LV catheter. Gene expression of the wall stress markers, atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), were evaluated via reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Cardiomyocyte area and myocardial fibrosis were also examined through histological examinations. These parameters were compared to those in 16 rats that underwent coronary artery ligation but not LVP. RESULTS: We noted that the LV end-diastolic dimension was smaller (9.9 ± 0.3 vs. 11.2 ± 0.2 mm, p < 0.05) and fractional shortening was greater (25 ± 2 vs. 15 ± 1%, p < 0.05) in LVP rats than in sham rats. Moreover, systolic wall stress was lower in LVP rats (71 ± 7 vs. 111 ± 9 × 103 dyn/cm2, p < 0.05). Myocardial ANF and BNP expression levels were lower in LVP rats (2.6 ± 0.3 vs. 4.4 ± 0.5 and 1.0 ± 0.1 vs. 1.5 ± 0.2 arbitrary units, respectively; p < 0.05). Cardiomyocyte area was significantly decreased in LVP rats (556 ± 15 vs. 670 ± 28 μm2, p = 0.003) and was correlated with LV wall stress (r = 0.669, p = 0.002). The reduction in myocardial fibrosis after LVP was not significant. CONCLUSION: LVP reduced LV wall stress and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in a rat model of MI.

Journal of artificial organs : the official journal of the Japanese Society for Artificial Organs, 19, 1, 62, 9, Mar. 2016, [Peer-reviewed], [Domestic magazines]
English, The authors developed the wavelet analysis system which can detect the splitting of bileaflet mechanical heart valve (BLV) into two spikes on the scalogram, and reported that either consecutive single spike or the split behavior can detect malfunctioning BLV (MBV). The latest study on 12 BLVs suggested that the comparison between two spike areas showed higher potential to detect MBV than the split behavior. The aim of the current study is to review 226 files of BLV sound and to select the suitable scalographic property to differentiate the function of BLV with the split. Eight of 30 MBV files showed consecutive single spike, and the rest of 22 MBV files showed two spikes. Two spike areas can be compared by the following three ratios; the anterior spike area/posterior spike area (Aa/La), its reverse ratio (Pa/Aa) and the smaller spike area/the larger spike ratio (Sa/La). Therefore, the current study compared those three ratios to pursue the suitable ratio to compare two spike areas and its sensitivity to differentiate valve function by the ROC analysis. As a result, the Sa/La was suitable for comparing two spike areas, and only this ratio showed high accuracy to differentiate the function of BVL with the split, and its cutoff value was <0.665. Conclusively, the key for detecting MBV was either consecutive single spike or the mean of Sa/La < 0.665. However, this cutoff point is still tentative due to small number of malfunctioning valves, and other key might be available in future.

Japanese Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 45, 1, 26, 31, The Japanese Society for Cardiovascular Surgery, 2016, [Peer-reviewed]
Japanese, Introduction : Right atrial (RA) and right ventricular (RV) dilatation that are associated with severe tricuspid regurgitation, and severe high RV pressure that is associated with pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum cause left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and hypoplastic lung. We have applied a modified RV obliteration technique that excludes non-functional enlarged RV for these diseases. Objectives : To evaluate the efficacy of our procedure. Methods and Results : Five patients (six operations) underwent the procedure without complications. Cardiothoracic ratio significantly decreased from 71±10% to 61±5% (p=0.017), and fractional shortening ended to increase from 27±17% to 37±5% (p=0.071). All of them achieved Fontan completion finally. One patient who underwent this procedure as a neonate experienced RV re-dilation 19 months later. He additionally received the same procedure in a Fontan operation, and then RV reduced again and good LV function was maintained. Conclusion : The application of modified RV obliteration technique is effective for Fontan candidates with nonfunctional RV.

Japanese,

Congenital coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula is rare and occurs concomitantly with various disease conditions, including myocardial ischemia symptoms and aneurisms. Such a fistula complicated by continuity to a systemic blood vessel is even rarer. The patient was a healthy 75-year-old man who had lost consciousness for several tens of seconds at home. An examination performed at a nearby neurosurgical clinic showed no abnormalities, and he was referred to our cardiovascular department for detailed examination for suspected cardiogenic syncope. Sick sinus syndrome was diagnosed based on Holter monitoring. Pulmonary artery-bilateral coronary artery fistula with coronary artery stenosis was diagnosed on coronary arteriography. It was difficult to determine whether coronary bypass surgery was indicated because of the presence of a fistula. Based on the overall evaluation of coronary fractional flow reserve, coronary artery ultrasound, and stress myocardial scintigraphy in addition to usual coronary arteriography, triple-vessel bypass surgery was indicated. Preoperative CT angiography showed a left common carotid artery/bronchial artery-pulmonary artery fistula, with a communication at a bilateral coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula. Coronary artery bypass surgery was performed in addition to coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula ligation, left common carotid artery-pulmonary artery fistula closure, bronchial artery-pulmonary artery fistula closure, and pacemaker implantation. Preoperative CT angiography and perioperative surface echocardiography were useful for locating fistula openings. The abnormal blood vessels that allowed blood flow from the left common carotid and bronchial arteries, and into the fistula vessel opening were ligated previously. When cardioplegic solution was injected, the fistula opening was directly pressed, which facilitated the solution to spread over the cardiac muscle, contributing to full cardiac arrest. Postoperative CT angiography showed disappearance of the pulmonary artery-bilateral coronary artery fistula and left common carotid artery/bronchial artery-pulmonary artery fistula. To our knowledge, there are no reports describing the surgical treatment of left common carotid artery/bronchial artery-pulmonary artery fistula and bilateral coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula. Here we report this rare case with a review of the relevant literature.

Journal of cardiology, 65, 2, 157, 63, Feb. 2015, [Peer-reviewed], [International Magazine]
English, BACKGROUND: Left ventriculoplasty (LVP) and mitral valve plasty (MVP) are sometimes effective for patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) who are not eligible for heart transplantation. Strict patient selection is warranted for these controversial procedures. METHODS AND RESULTS: The subjects were 18 patients with idiopathic DCM and mitral regurgitation who had not been indicated for heart transplantation due to either older age or patient refusal, and who underwent LVP and MVP. Their mean age was 57±14 years and 50% were dependent on catecholamine infusion. The preload recruitable stroke work (PRSW) relationship and its slope (Mw) were estimated by a single-beat technique using transthoracic echocardiography. There were one 30-day mortality and six (33%) hospital deaths due to heart failure. The one-year survival rate was 50%. Left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVDd) decreased from 77±11 to 68±11mm (p=0.001) whereas the ejection fraction did not change. Preoperative Mw was significantly higher in one-year survivors than that in non-survivors (54±17ergcm(-3)10(3) vs. 31±10ergcm(-3)10(3), p=0.005). Preoperative LVDd was not different between the groups. The cut-off value of 42ergcm(-3)10(3) for Mw predicted one-year survival with high sensitivity (100%) and specificity (77%). CONCLUSIONS: Mw, the slope in the PRSW relationship, may predict survival after LVP and MVP in patients with idiopathic DCM.

Annals of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery : official journal of the Association of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeons of Asia, 21, 2, 132, 8, 2015, [Peer-reviewed], [Domestic magazines]
English, PURPOSE: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a therapeutic option for severe aortic valvular stenosis (AS). To determine the indication for TAVR, it is mandatory to clarify the characteristics of the patients who were judged as inoperable for conventional aortic valve replacement (cAVR). METHODS: Of 185 patients newly diagnosed as severe AS from March 2010 to April 2011, we studied the characteristics of 61 (33%) patients (mean age, 86 ± 8 years) who were judged as inoperable. RESULTS: Younger patients (<85 years old, n = 22) had more major comorbidities and lower left ventricular ejection fraction than older patients (≥85 years old, n = 39). Mean estimated mortality for cAVR by Japan score was 7.0% ± 7.4%. Japan score did not correlate to age and was calculated relatively low in the older age group (6.2% ± 7.0%) than the younger age group (8.3% ± 8.1%). CONCLUSION: One thirds of severe AS patients were judged as inoperable. In advanced age patients, age itself and other factors, which are not included in the conventional scoring systems, might have contributed to the decision making not to perform cAVR by cardiologists. Further study is necessary to define risk factors except for age.

Annals of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery : official journal of the Association of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeons of Asia, 21, 4, 370, 7, 2015, [Peer-reviewed], [Lead author], [Domestic magazines]
English, PURPOSE: The progression of left ventricular (LV) remodeling and subsequent mitral valve tethering impair the results of reduction annuloplasty for ischemic mitral regurgitation (MR). METHODS: We studied 90 patients who underwent surgical repair of ischemic MR between 1999 and 2013 according to our surgical strategy adding submitral and ventricular procedures to annuloplasty as follows: annuloplasty alone (stage 1, n = 30), additional papillary muscle approximation (PMA) for progression of tethering (stage 2, n = 26), and additional left ventriculoplasty with PMA for progression of LV remodeling and tethering (stage 3, n = 34). RESULTS: The preoperative New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classes (2.5 ± 0.7, 3.1 ± 0.7 and 3.3 ± 0.7 for stages 1, 2 and 3, respectively, P <0.001), LV end-diastolic diameters (56 ± 7 mm, 66 ± 5 mm and 70 ± 7 mm, P <0.001), and LV ejection fractions (45 ± 12%, 32 ± 9% and 27 ± 9%, P <0.001) significantly differed among the stages. In contrast, the MR grades did not significantly differ (2.9 ± 0.8, 3.0 ± 1.0, and 2.9 ± 1.1, respectively; P = 0.93). Both the rates of cardiac-related survival and freedom from reoperation were comparable among the 3 groups (log-rank P = 0.92 and 0.58, respectively). CONCLUSION: Additional submitral and ventricular procedures can compensate for the possible impairment of the outcomes after annuloplasty alone for ischemic MR in patients with severe LV remodeling and tethering.

Benefits of submitral procedures for ischemic mitral regurgitation.

English, The surgical strategy for ischemic mitral regurgitation (MR) remains controversial. Ischemic MR is a secondary valve disease caused by left ventricular (LV) remodeling and subsequent papillary muscle displacement, usually without structural valve lesions. Reduction annuloplasty is the standard surgical procedure for this condition, though it cannot clearly provide a survival benefit for those with LV dysfunction and is associated with a high prevalence of late recurrence of MR. The valvular procedure alone could be insufficient to treat ischemic MR in terms of long-term survival and the prevention of recurrence because ischemic MR is primarily a ventricular disorder. Thus, recent studies have focused on alternative procedures that target the primary cause of ischemic MR, the papillary muscles and left ventricle. We believe that the appropriate selection of surgical procedures among valvular, subvalvular, and even ventricular ones, considering the severity of LV remodeling for each patient would be more beneficial. Here we review recent studies featuring various surgical approaches to ischemic MR, especially with submitral procedures.

English, PURPOSE: Diastolic function is impaired in patients with end-stage heart failure. Favorable structural changes by surgical ventricular reconstruction (SVR) are thought to improve diastolic function, however, previous studies reported the contradictory results. We hypothesized that cardiac oxidative metabolism and diastolic dysfunction might improve in parallel to the reduction of left ventricular chamber size after SVR. METHODS: We studied 11 patients underwent SVR associated with mitral valve repair for end-stage heart failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy. Diastolic function was assessed by echocardiography and myocardial oxidative metabolism was measured by the monoexponential clearance (k-mono) of (11)C-acetate positron emission tomography at baseline and 1 month after SVR. RESULTS: All patients had preoperative severe diastolic dysfunction [E/A 4.11 ± 1.18, deceleration time (DT) 134 ± 26 ms]. The study patients were divided into 2 groups according to the changes in diastolic function after SVR; unchanged or worsened diastolic function in 6 patients (55 %, Non-responder) and improved diastolic function in 5 (45 %, Responder). K-mono and wall stress decreased only in responder. The changes in k-mono before and after SVR correlated with those in deceleration time (r =  -0.63; p < 0.05) and wall stress (r = 0.75; p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Improvement of diastolic dysfunction in patients with end-stage heart failure by SVR was in parallel to that in oxidative metabolism. It suggests that SVR reduced excessive metabolism during the diastolic phase, in part, via the improvement in diastolic function and the reduction in LV wall stress.

English, OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of surgical ventricular reconstruction (SVR) on cardiac efficiency as a surrogate marker for cardiac function and oxidative metabolism in patients with severe heart failure. BACKGROUND: Our new integrated overlapping left ventriculoplasty, modified SVR, combined with mitral complex reconstruction, reduce left ventricular (LV) volume associated with improvement of symptoms of heart failure. METHODS: Twelve consecutive patients with end-stage heart failure due to nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (n = 6) and ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (ICM) (n = 6) who underwent SVR were studied. Myocardial oxidative metabolism per gram of tissue was estimated by monoexponential clearance of (11)C-acetate positron emission tomography (K(mono)). Forward stroke volume at the LV outflow tract was measured by echocardiography. Cardiac efficiency was estimated by the ratio of external work (stroke volume at the LV outflow tract index × systolic blood pressure × heart rate) to K(mono) before and 1 month after SVR. RESULTS: After SVR, medians of New York Heart Association functional class significantly improved from 3 to 1.5 (p < 0.01) in both DCM and ICM patients. End-systolic and end-diastolic volume and LV mass significantly decreased in both groups. Stroke volume at the LV outflow tract increased from 43 ± 8 ml to 52 ± 11 ml (p = 0.028) in DCM patients, but not in ICM patients (49 ± 21 ml to 59 ± 26 ml, p = 0.12). K(mono) × LV mass, as an index of global LV oxidative metabolism, decreased in DCM patients (13.6 ± 1.9 g/min vs. 8.6 ± 1.5 g/min, p = 0.03) and ICM patients (12.0 ± 3.4 g/min vs. 9.2 ± 1.0 g/min, p = 0.06). As a result, cardiac efficiency increased in all patients with DCM (3.34 ± 0.46 × 10E6 vs. 4.74 ± 0.88 × 10E6 mm Hg·ml·min/m(2), p = 0.03) and in 5 of 6 patients with ICM (4.54 ± 1.66 × 10E6 vs. 5.99 ± 2.11 × 10E6 mm Hg·ml·min/m(2), p = 0.12). CONCLUSIONS: Combined surgery with SVR and mitral complex reconstruction reduced LV volume in association with improvement of cardiac efficiency in patients with severe heart failure.

肺移植患者における超音波気管支鏡の安全性および有効性の検討

目的 気管支腔内超音波検査法（EBUS）は低侵襲かつ高い診断能を有する検査手技である。本研究では、肺移植待機患者および移植後患者の経過中に、悪性腫瘍が疑われた肺・リンパ節病変に対するEBUSの有用性を検討した。方法 2008年～2018年までの間にEBUSガイド下経気道的肺生検 (EBUS-GS-TBB, EBUS-TBNA)が施行された肺移植後患者及び待機患者に対し後方視的検討を行った。結果 全28例に対してEBUS-TBNA：20例、EBUS-GS-TBB：8例 が施行された。肺移植術後患者19例の内訳は、移植後に肺腫瘤を認め悪性腫瘍が疑われた11例、肺門及び縦隔リンパ節腫大を認め移植後リンパ増殖性疾患(PTLD)が疑われた8例であった。全症例において確定診断が可能であり、重篤な合併症を認めなかった。診断の内訳は、原発性肺癌6例、PTLD 4例、感染性疾患3例、良性疾患6例であった。PTLDが疑われた8例中、4例（50%）がPTLDと診断され、肺悪性腫瘍が疑われた11例中、6例(55%)で肺悪性腫瘍の確定診断が可能であった。また、肺移植待機9例のうち、5例（56%）にて肺悪性腫瘍の確定診断に至り、治療方針が変更された。結論 移植待機中の末期慢性肺疾患症例及び肺移植術前後症例におけるEBUSは、肺病変及び縦隔肺門リンパ節に対する安全かつ高精度な質的診断が可能な検査法と考えられた。, 一般社団法人 日本移植学会, Japanese

現在，心機能の評価では，心臓全体の運動を指標化する方法が一般的である．しかし，心不全の場合心臓の壁運動は局所的に不均一となり，拡張収縮運動が正常に行われている領域とその運動が殆ど見られない領域に分かれる為，診断・治療ではそれらの局所的な違いを解析する事が重要となる．そこで本研究では，時系列CT画像より3次元心内膜メッシュモデルを作成し，これらを利用した3次元運動解析を行った為，報告を行う．, The Japan Society for Precision Engineering, Japanese
