OBJECTIVE: Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are commonly used in surgical and percutaneous valve replacement. The durability of percutaneous valve replacement is unknown, but surgical valves have been shown to require reintervention after 10 to 15 years. Further, smaller-diameter surgical BHVs generally experience higher rates of prosthesis-patient mismatch, which leads to higher rates of failure. Bioprosthetic…
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate utilization and perioperative outcomes of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) or robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) for lung cancer in the United States using a nationally representative database. Methods: Hospital admissions for lobectomy or sublobar resection (segmentectomy or wedge resection) using VATS or RATS in patients with nonmetastatic…
Objective: We aimed to clarify the clinical features and surgical outcomes of descending necrotizing mediastinitis (DNM) to provide a guide for its surgical treatment, focusing on the type of extension and the deployed procedures. Methods: As a joint study of the Japan Broncho-esophagological Society and the Japanese Association for Chest Surgery (JBES1703/JACS1806 study), the clinical…
ObjectiveThe use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has increased exponentially. Costs and outcomes, however, vary considerably by indication. We sought to elucidate and quantify these differences.MethodsAdult patients supported on ECMO between 2008 and 2016 were analyzed using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample. We divided the study period into an early (2008-2013) and late period (2013-2016). The…
