Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in pediatric ovarian tumors: a novel treatment approach
Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have been used in adults with ovarian carcinoma proving overall survival benefit in randomized trials, but measured in months.

Cardioplegic or Fibrillatory Arrest for Correction of Partial and Intermediate Atrioventricular Septal Defects?
Certain congenital cardiac surgeries can be performed in ventricular fibrillation (Vfib) as an alternative to cardioplegic arrest.
Prognostic Implications of Acute Renal Failure after Surgery for Type A Acute Aortic Dissection
"Type A" acute aortic dissection (AAAD) is the most challenging among the emergency operations in cardiac surgery. The aim of this study was the evaluation of the role of acute renal failure (ARF) in postoperative survival of patients operated for AAAD.
Acute Kidney Injury in Cardiorenal Syndrome Type 1 Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
We evaluated the epidemiology and outcome of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with cardiorenal syndrome type 1 (CRS-1) and its subgroups: acute heart failure (AHF), acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and after cardiac surgery (CS).
The SYNTAX Score is Correlated with Long-Term Outcomes of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting for Complex Coronary Artery Lesions
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation between the SYNTAX score and long-term major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) including all-cause death, stroke, myocardial infarction (MI) and repeat revascularization after CABG.
Preoperative Low Serum Bicarbonate Levels Predict Acute Kidney Injury After Cardiac Surgery
Acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery is a common and serious complication. Although lower than normal serum bicarbonate levels are known to be associated with consecutive renal function deterioration in patients with chronic kidney injury, it is not well-known whether preoperative low serum bicarbonate levels are associated with the development of AKI in patients who undergo cardiac surgery.
Metabolite Profiles Predict Acute Kidney Injury and Mortality in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs commonly after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with markedly increased postoperative mortality. We previously identified plasma metabolites predictive of incident chronic kidney disease, but whether metabolite profiles can identify those at risk of AKI is unknown.
