Öğe Arterial Myocardial Revascularization Using Bilateral Radial Artery: 17 Years after Right Pneumonectomy(2004) Erdil N.; Nisanoglu V.; Toprak H.I.; Erdil F.A.; Kuzucu A.; Battaloglu B.We report the case of a 51-year-old man who underwent arterial myocardial revascularization with the use of bilateral radial arteries, 17 years after undergoing a right pneumonectomy. We used a fast-track anesthesia protocol for the procedure. There was no perioperative complication, and postoperative recovery was uneventful. The patient was discharged from the hospital 5 days after the operation.Öğe Complete left-sided absence of the pericardium in association with ruptured type A aortic dissection complicated by severe left hemothorax(2005) Nisanoglu V.; Erdil N.; Battaloglu B.We report an unusual clinical presentation of an acute type A aortic dissection as a left hemothorax in a patient with a congenital pericardial defect. Although the pericardial defect was diagnosed preoperatively, we could not exclude the possibility of a ruptured descending aorta until we discovered the site of the rupture during operation. The presence of a pericardial defect would at first appear to be a fatal disadvantage in such a situation as this, due to massive bleeding into the pleural space; but we believe that in our patient spontaneous drainage of blood into the pleural cavity prevented severe cardiac tamponade. The only reason for his deteriorating hemodynamic status was hypovolemia, which was corrected with volume replacement. © 2005 by the Texas Heart® Institute.Öğe Early outcomes of radial artery use in all-arterial grafting: Of the coronary arteries in patients 65 years and older(Texas Heart Institute, 2010) Erdil N.; Nisanoglu V.; Eroglu T.; Fansa L.; Cihan H.B.; Battaloglu B.We retrospectively evaluated early clinical results of coronary revascularization using none but arterial grafts in patients aged 65 years and older. The cases of 449 consecutive patients who had undergone isolated myocardial revascularization were divided into 2 groups: the arterial conduit group (n=107) received a left internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft and 1 or both radial arteries (RAs), while the mixed-conduit group (n=342) received a LIMA graft and 1 or more saphenous vein grafts (SVGs), with or without an RA. There was no significant difference between the groups' rates of mortality. The arterial conduit group had a significantly shorter overall postoperative hospital stay than did the mixed-conduit group (mean, 6.6 ± 0.9 vs 7.2 ± 5 days; P=0.04). Linear regression analysis revealed that the presence of hypertension (?=0.13; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.054-0.759; P=0.02) and high EuroSCORE (?=0.24; 95% CI, 0.053-0.283; P=0.004) were the major predicting factors for long hospital stay. Graft-harvest-site infection was statistically more frequent in the mixed-conduit group than in the arterial conduit group (6.4% vs 0, respectively; P=0.007). Angiography was performed postoperatively (mean, 24.9 ± 16.3 mo; range, 11-65 mo) in 21 patients. In these patients, all LIMA grafts were patent, as were 86.9% of the SVGs and 90.9% of the RA grafts. Myocardial revascularization using all arterial grafts (at least 50% RAs) in patients aged 65 years and older is safe and reliable, produces short-term results equal to those of saphenous vein grafting, and can reduce graft-harvest-site infections. © 2010 by the Texas Heart® Institute, Houston.Öğe Giant left atrial thrombus formation in patient with a previous coronary artery bypass grafting.(2013) Erdil N.; Disli O.M.; Yagmur J.; Secici S.; Donmez K.; Akca B.; Battaloglu B.Free-floating left atrial ball thrombus is a rare condition. We report a giant left atrial ball thrombus which was removed under surgery uneventfully, in a 48-year-old male patient with the presence of sinus rhythm and no valvular disease with previous off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery.Öğe Left ventricular aneurysmal repair within 30 days after acute myocardial infarction: Early and mid-term outcomes(2007) Battaloglu B.; Erdil N.; Nisanoglu V.For safe resection, left ventricular aneurysmal repair after acute myocardial infarction is usually delayed. However, delaying surgery may not be possible or prudent in some patients who are clinically unstable after acute myocardial infarction. We retrospectively reviewed the early and mid-term outcomes of left ventricular aneurysmal repair in patients who had experienced acute myocardial infarction <30 days before the repair. From September 2001 through May 2006, 127 consecutive post-infarction patients underwent concurrent anteroapical left ventricular aneurysmal repair and coronary artery bypass grafting. In Group I (38 clinically unstable patients), the surgery was performed <30 days after myocardial infarction. In Group II, 89 patients underwent the surgery ?30 days after infarction. The mean follow-up period was 26.16 ± 16.41 months. One Group I patient (2.6%) died in the hospital due to graft-versus-host reaction. Three Group II patients (3.4%) died: 2 of low cardiac output and 1 of multiple-organ failure. Hospital mortality rates were not statistically significant between groups (P=0.582). All patients required similar perioperative inotropic support, intra-aortic balloon pump support, and reexploration for bleeding or cardiac tamponade. The actuarial survival rates were 94.7% (Group I) and 94.4% (Group II). Postoperative New York Heart Association functional class improved similarly in both groups. We infer that left ventricular aneurysmal repair with coronary revascularization <30 days after a recent myocardial infarction is a feasible procedure, with acceptable morbidity and mortality rates. Our mid-term results were comparable with those for patients who underwent this surgery ?30 days after acute myocardial infarction. © 2007 by the Texas Heart® Institute.Öğe Partial dehiscence of mechanical aortic valve due to infective endocarditis(Asia Publishing Exchange Pte Ltd, 2003) Battaloglu B.; Erdil N.; Nisanoglu V.; Kosar F.[No abstract available]Öğe Plasma iron, copper, zinc levels in patients experiencing delirium following coronary artery bypass grafting(2008) Cumurcu B.E.; Karlidag R.; Unal S.; Sezer O.H.; Battaloglu B.; Mendil D.; But K.Aim: To investigate the role of plasma iron (Fe), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) levels on delirium in patients following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods: Twelve of the 50 patients included in the study showed signs of delirium during postoperative follow-up. We diagnosed delirium using DSM-IV-TR (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) criteria. Delirium Rating Scale (DRS) was used to estimate delirium severity. In both groups pre-and postoperative plasma Fe, Cu, and Zn levels were analyzed with atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) method and compared statistically. Results: There was no significant difference between the groups for preoperative plasma Fe and Zn levels, while the Cu level was statistically significantly lower in the delirium group (p<0.05). The postoperative plasma Fe and Zn levels were statistically significantly higher in the delirium group (p=0.0001). The Cu level was statistically significantly higher in the delirium and non-delirium group (p=0.0001, p<0.05, respectively). The comparison of postoperative plasma Fe, Cu and Zn levels between the two groups showed a statistically significantly higher level in the delirium group compared to the non-delirium group (p=0.0001). The postoperative plasma Cu/Zn levels were statistically significantly higher in the delirium group (p<0.05). Conclusion: It may be suggested that the increased postoperative plasma levels of these trace elements may play a role in delirium seen after CABG. © Universitätsverlag Ulm GmbH 2009.
