Mycotic right coronary artery aneurysm: CT and MR diagnosis.

A clostridial mycotic aneurysm of the right coronary artery was diagnosed by the use of multiple imaging modalities including gated magnetic resonance imaging. Percutaneous drainage was performed as a palliative measure in hope of avoiding repeat sternotomy.

Review of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Successful repair of rupture and dissection of abdominal aorta.

Successful surgical treatment of spontaneous rupture and dissection of the abdominal aorta in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome has not been previously reported. A 16-year-old male sustained spontaneous rupture and dissection of the abdominal aorta. Successful surgical treatment included placement of an abdominal aortic bifurcation graft. Genetical, biochemical and clinical differences of seven types of the syndrome are outlined. A brief guideline for treatment and prevention of vascular complications is discussed.

Superiority of aortic over femoral cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass, with specific attention to lower extremity neuropathy.

The advantage of aortic cannulation over femoral cannulation in cardiopulmonary bypass has been well established in our experience. Over a four year period, we compared the incidence of complications of these two modalities in a large group of patients. Specific emphasis is placed on the lack of lower extremity neurological deficit and retrograde dissection in patients who underwent aortic cannulation.

Reflections in a normal eye: the effect of aortic stenosis on oculopneumoplethysmography.

The association of aortic stenosis and syncope is well recognized. Oculopneumoplethysmography (OPG) can provide an accurate index of carotid stenosis and indirectly measure cerebral perfusion. The possibility that OPG would be influenced by aortic valve disease was assessed in patients prior to valve replacement. 31 patients were studied. 19 patients had aortic stenosis (AS), 3 had aortic insufficiency (AI), and 10 had mixed lesions. OPG was positive in 15 patients (48%). Considering all forms of aortic valve disease, the likelihood that a positive OPG was indicative of AS with a gradient of greater than 60 mmHg was significant (P = .002). Of 18 patients with AS alone, no patient with a valve gradient greater than 60 mmHg had a negative OPG (P = .0001). OPG became normal in 11 of 12 patients restudied postoperatively. Critical aortic stenosis results in uneven distribution of blood flow into the brachiocephalic vessels. OPG accurately identifies this effect which becomes evident at aortic valve gradients greater than 60 mmHg.
