Coronary Artery Bypass With the Use of a Magnetic Distal Anastomotic Device: Surgical Technique and Preliminary Experience
The aim of our study was to evaluate the feasibility of using the Ventrica magnetic vascular positioner (MVP) device for left internal thoracic artery (LITA)-to-left anterior descending (LAD) coronary anastomosis.
The Future of Perfusion Summary
What does the future of perfusion hold? For many perfusionists this question seems to be looming more imminently than ever before. New […]
Off-Pump Bypass Surgery Summary
In many ways, off-pump bypass (or OP-CABG) is similar to conventional bypass surgery. The main difference lies in the fact that a heart-lung machine is not used to employ cardiopulmonary bypass during the operation.
Regulation of Proliferation, Motility and Contractivity of Human Endometrial Stromal Cells by Platelet-Derived Growth Factor
By regulating ESC function during the peri-menstrual period, PDGF may be help to protect the endometrium from extensive fibrosis and scarring.

Conventional Bypass Surgery Summary
Conventional CABG is performed through a vertical incision down the front of the chest that splits the breast bone. It is an open heart operation.

Maxillary Sinus Augmentation with Platelet-Rich Plasma and Fibrinogen Cryoprecipitate: A Tomographic Pilot Study
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of platelet-rich plasma, autologous bone, and autologous fibrinogen as cryoprecipitate in maxillary sinus augmentation procedures.

Pulmonary Outcomes of Off-Pump vs On-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery in a Randomized Trial
Comparison of pulmonary outcomes after off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) vs on-pump coronary artery grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass (CABG/CPB).
Jugular Bulb Desaturation During Coronary Artery Surgery: A Comparison of Off-Pump and On-Pump Procedures
We set out to compare episodes of poor global cerebral oxygenation, defined as a jugular bulb saturation less than 50%, between patients randomized to off-pump or (conventional) on-pump coronary artery surgery.
