On sweet undeniable feeling of power of international intellectual feudalism, bias, discrimination, censoring and theft
In this June 2019 issue of the journal you can find article on management of deep venous thrombosis in general surgery, review article on strategy of preservation subvalvular structures in mitral valve replacement surgery and quizzes on electrophysiology and pacemaker.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) in the form of either pulmonary embolism (PE) or deep vein thrombosis (DVT) complicates major surgery not infrequently. We analyzed in this study superiority of combined approach of thromboprophylaxis compared to conventional nonpharmacological preventive sets.
Complete preservation of leaflets for mitral valve replacement to maintain geometry and the function of left ventricle in the near and distant period is necessary. The aim of study was to analyze these procedures. Bileaflet preservation of the anatomical architectonics of the left ventricle in combination with the surgical reduction of the enlarged left atrium will allow to optimize the postoperative geometry and to improve the remodeling of all the left heart along with improved long-term results of patients with mitral valve replacement.
