Abstract

Treatment of malignant epithelial thymic tumours, including thymoma and thymic carcinoma, is based on surgical resection, whenever possible. Mainstay of surgical treatment is complete resection with clear margins. This may require resection of adjacent structures, even major vessels. We describe a case of resection of the main pulmonary artery trunk and reconstruction with cadaveric homograft after induction chemo-radiotherapy for a locally advanced thymic carcinoma. Written informed consent was obtained from the patient. A 64-year-old woman presented with a solid mediastinal mass highly suspicious for thymic malignancy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

2. Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting without mechanical stabilization in minipericardiotomy.

Author

Di Biasi, Pietro, Torre, Tiziano M, Di Mauro, Alessandra, and Donatelli, Francesco

Abstract

Stabilization and exposure of coronary vessels in off-pump bypass grafting is achieved by means of different and expensive mechanical stabilizers. We describe a new technique of stabilization and exposure of target vessels by using only a 'double suspension-stabilization stitch' without the support of mechanical stabilizers. In accomplishing left anterior descending and right coronary artery off-pump bypass grafting, this technique has resulted in a good hemodynamic stability, in no epicardial damage and surgical trauma, and finally it represents a costless procedure.
