Cardiothoracic surgery residents represent the future of our specialty and this unique book, developed by residents for residents, is a shining example of why we are so proud to be cardiothoracic surgeons. The 83- chapter compendium, developed and written by members of the Thoracic Surgery Residents As- sociation (TRSA), provides superb individual summaries of important cardiothoracic surgery topics and should be an invaluable asset to cardiothoracic surgeons in every stage of training. The review book's contributors, including editors Carlos Mery, MD and Joseph Turek, MD, should be congratulated for their vision, contribution to educational resources for residents, and combined resolve to improve resident education. As President of the TSDA, I thank each of them for this considerable effort and I challenge every cardiothoracic resident to incorporate this body of knowledge into their daily activities for the benefit of our patients. George L. Hicks, Jr., MD President Thoracic Surgery Directors Association July 2011 (#$)*+$' As the field of cardiothoracic surgery continues to evolve, the amount of knowledge that a cardi- othoracic surgeon must acquire continues to increase. There are several excellent and estab- lished textbooks in cardiothoracic surgery; however, there are few review books that can serve as a concise analysis of the field. The goal of this book, edited by the Thoracic Surgery Residents Association (TSRA) and au- thored by more than 50 cardiothoracic surgery residents from different programs around the country, is to synthesize the breadth of information that a cardiothoracic surgeon has to be famil- iar with into a few hundred pages. This brief review book is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather to relay essential information in cardiothoracic surgery to residents and established sur- geons alike. The material is organized into four different sections: General Thoracic Surgery, Adult Cardiac Surgery, Congenital Cardiac Surgery, and Cardiothoracic Trauma and Critical Care. The materi- al included in each of the chapters is well known to anyone familiar with the topic and can be found in most cardiothoracic surgery textbooks. The books and journal articles that served as source material are listed at the end of the book. We would like to thank the Thoracic Surgery Directors Association (TSDA) for their support with this project and all other initiatives. We would particularly like to thank the TSRA commit- tee members and the multiple contributors that made the creation of this book possible. Carlos M. Mery Joseph W.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Elsevier - Publisher Connector Subclavian vein obstruction without thrombosis Richard J. Sanders, MD,a and Sharon L. Hammond, MD,a,b Denver, Colo Background: Unilateral arm swelling caused by subclavian vein obstruction without thrombosis is an uncommon form of venous thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS). In 87 patients with venous TOS, only 21 patients had no thrombosis. We describe the diagnosis and treatment of these patients. Material and Methods: Twenty-one patients with arm swelling, cyanosis, and venograms demonstrating partial subclavian vein obstruction were treated with transaxillary first rib resection and venolysis. Results: Eighteen (86%) of 21 patients had good-to-excellent improvement of symptoms. There were two failures (9%). Conclusions: Unilateral arm swelling without thrombosis, when not caused by lymphatic obstruction, may be due to subclavian vein compression at the costoclavicular ligament because of compression either by that ligament or the subclavius tendon most often because of congenital close proximity of the vein to the ligament. Arm symptoms of neurogenic TOS, pain, and paresthesia often accompany venous TOS while neck pain and headache, other common symptoms of neurogenic TOS, are infrequent. Diagnosis was made by dynamic venography. First rib resection, which included the anterior portion of rib and cartilage plus division of the costoclavicular ligament and subclavius tendon, proved to be effective treatment. (J Vasc Surg 2005;41:285-90.) Unilateral arm swelling without thrombosis is uncom- system. Three separate injections were administered: one mon, and few papers have addressed this condition.

More than 90% of cases involve the brachial plexus, 5% involve venous obstruction, and 1% are associate with arterial obstruction. The clinical presentation, including symptoms, physical examination, pathology, etiology, and treatment differences among neurogenic, venous, and arterial TOS syndromes. This review details the diagnostic testing required to differentiate among the associated conditions and recommends appropriate medical or surgical treatment for each compression syndrome. The long- term outcomes of patients with TOS and pectoralis minor syndrome also vary and depend on duration of symptoms before initiation of physical therapy and surgical intervention. Overall, it can be expected that 480% of patients with these compression syndromes can experience functional improvement of their upper extremity; higher for arterial and venous TOS than for neurogenic compression. & 2015 Published by Elsevier Inc. 1.

It is a very rare syndrome resulting from anatomical abnormalities of the thoracic outlet, causing thrombosis of the deep veins draining the upper extremity. This disease is also called “effort thrombosis― because of increased association with vigorous and repetitive upper extremity activities. Symptoms include severe upper extremity pain and swelling after strenuous activity. A 31-year-old female with a history of vascular thoracic outlet syndrome, two prior thrombectomies, and right first rib resection presented with symptoms of loss of blood sensation, dull pain in the area, and sharp pain when coughing/sneezing. When the patient had her first blood clot, physical exam was notable for swelling, venous distension, and skin discoloration. The patient had her first thrombectomy in her right upper extremity a couple weeks after the first clot was discovered. Thrombolysis with TPA was initiated, and percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy with angioplasty of the axillary and subclavian veins was performed. Almost immediately after the thrombectomy, the patient had a rethrombosis which was confirmed by ultrasound.

Abstract: In thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) the narrowing between bony and muscular structures in the region of the thoracic outlet/inlet results in compression of the neurovascular bundle to the upper extremity. Venous compression, resulting in TOS (vTOS) is much more common than a stenosis of the subclavian artery (aTOS) with or without an aneurysm. Traditional open surgical approaches to remove the first rib usually lack good exposure of the entire rib and the neurovascular bundle. Between January 2015 and July 2021, 24 consecutive first rib resections for venous or arterial TOS Citation: Zehnder, A.; Lutz, J.; Dorn, were performed in 23 patients at our institutions.

Abstract Hemothorax is defined as a bleeding into pleural cavity. Hemothorax is a frequent manifestation of blunt chest trauma. Some authors suggested a hematocrit value more than 50% for differentiation of a hemothorax from a sanguineous pleural effusion. Hemothorax is also often associated with penetrating chest injury or chest wall blunt chest wall trauma with skeletal injury. Much less common, it may be related to pleural diseases, induced iatrogenic or develop spontaneously. In the vast majority of blunt and penetrating trauma cases, hemothoraces can be managed by relatively simple means in the course of care. Keywords: Traumatic hemothorax; Internal chest wall; Cardiac Hemodynamic response injury; Clinical manifestation; Blunt chest-wall injuries; Blunt As above mentioned the hemodynamic response is a multifactorial intrathoracic injuries; Penetrating thoracic trauma response and depends on severity of hemothorax according to its classification.
