CONCLUSION: Both treatment approaches achieved satisfactory bone regeneration, but combining cortical bone blocks with granular grafts provided better outcomes for larger defects, with greater bone formation and less resorption. Further research with longer follow-up is required to confirm long-term stability.

Quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare congenital anomaly of the aortic valve, with an incidence of 0.05-0.1%, often associated with aortic regurgitation. The condition typically presents between the ages o...

CONCLUSION: We report a case of left atrial dissection following MVR. The complex lesion was successfully repaired using redo MVR with annular reconstruction.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the 4-hook needle localization for pulmonary ground glass nodules (GGNs).

This case report presents a unique challenge of complete aortomitral curtain dehiscence and a large pseudoaneurysm 6 weeks post-aortic root replacement in a patient with infective endocarditis. It underscores the importance of meticulous follow-up in patients who have undergone complex aortic surgeries, especially those with infective endocarditis. The patient's subtle symptoms of occasional dyspnea and lightheadedness highlight the necessity for a comprehensive evaluation and a high index of...

Accurate diagnosis and evaluation of Williams Syndrome (WS) are essential yet challenging for effective surgical management. This study aimed to quantify the hemodynamic changes of surgical repair for WS throu...
