Abstract

The diffusely diseased coronary artery is challenging for cardiac surgeons because diffuse atheromatous lesions frequently render it unsuitable for conventional distal grafting. Coronary endarterectomy was introduced in the 1950s as a treatment option for diffusely diseased coronary arteries. However, initial studies demonstrated high operative mortality and morbidity associated with coronary endarterectomy; therefore, many cardiac surgeons have been reluctant to perform this procedure. With percutaneous coronary interventions increasingly being applied to coronary artery disease, the incidence of complex and diffuse coronary artery disease in patients referred for coronary artery bypass surgery has been increasing, and recent advances in the surgical technique and perioperative management have improved the surgical outcomes of coronary endarterectomy. In this review article, we sought to discuss coronary endarterectomy for the diffusely diseased coronary artery.

Echinokokkose medikamentös behandeln oder operieren?

06.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Die Therapie von Echinokokkosen sollte immer in spezialisierten Zentren erfolgen. Eine symptomlose Echinokokkose kann – egal ob von Hunde- oder Fuchsbandwurm ausgelöst – konservativ erfolgen. Wenn eine Op. nötig ist, kann es sinnvoll sein, vorher Zysten zu leeren und zu desinfizieren.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.
