Direct true lumen cannulation through aortic incision for cardiopulmonary bypass during surgery for acute Stanford type A aortic dissection was reported by Jacob, followed by Conzelmann who used a Mersilene tourniquet to snag the ascending aorta. Since 2013, Samurai cannulation, a modified version of the direct true lumen cannulation, has been used in surgery for acute type A aortic dissection at Kitasato University Hospital. Here, this surgical technique is described.
Jacob报道了急性Stanford A型主动脉夹层手术中经主动脉切口直接真腔插管进行体外循环,随后Conzelmann使用Mersilene止血带阻断升主动脉。自2013年以来,北中大学医院(Kitasato University Hospital)在急性a型主动脉夹层手术中使用了武士插管,这是一种改良版的直接真腔插管。在这里,我们将介绍这种手术技术。

The concept of a short esophagus defined as less than 2.5 cm of intra-abdominal esophageal is still a highly debated topic among benign UGI surgeons. Giant hiatal hernias and peptic strictures are a few conditions associated with lack of intra-abdominal esophageal length. All paraesophageal hernia operations necessitate adequate mediastinal esophageal mobilization until the inferior pulmonary vein. However, if despite this maneuver, a short esophagus is encountered, then a lengthening procedure is recommended to reduce the risk of a slipped wrap and hernia recurrence. Several options for esophageal lengthening are available including a left transthoracic, or a right transthoracic Collis stapled approach, modified collis gastroplasty and wedge gastroplasty.

Transapical ventriculotomy is an important technique in the surgical management of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). It is our preferred method for addressing complex long-segment subaortic obstruction and isolated midventricular HCM, as it provides better exposure of the midcavity than alternate methods such as the transaortic or transmitral approach. The procedure can also be used to improve symptoms of diastolic heart failure caused by reduced left ventricular end-diastolic volume as may occur in patients with apical HCM. In this article, we describe our surgical method for transapical myectomy to relieve midventricular obstruction or enlarge the left ventricular cavity to improve diastolic dysfunction in cases of extensive apical hypertrophy.
