Atrial Resection in Advanced Lung Carcinoma Under Total Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Ferguson, Edward R., Reardon, Michael J.
There are few reports of a surgical approach to T4 lung carcinoma that has invaded the heart. Although most cases will be considered inoperable, cases in which there is potential for complete...
The Technical Aspects of Radial Artery Harvesting
Conklin, Lori D., Ferguson, Edward R., Reardon, Michael J.
We describe our technique for harvesting the radial artery for coronary revascularization. Anatomy and preoperative preparation are also presented, as well as the history of the radial artery as a...
Technical Aspects of the Ross Procedure
Conklin, Lori D., Reardon, Michael J.
Use of the autologous pulmonary valve for replacement of a diseased aortic valve (Ross procedure) was introduced in the late 1960s but has gained widespread use only in the last 10 to 15 years. Part...
Autotransplantation of the Heart for Primary Cardiac Malignancy: Development and Surgical Technique
Conklin, Lori D., Reardon, Michael J.
Primary cardiac malignancy presents an unusual and difficult surgical challenge. Malignant tumors of the left atrium have proved problematic due to their posterior location and difficulty of surgical...
Interrupted Aortic Arch: Brief Review and Summary of an Eighteen-Year Experience
Reardon, Michael J., Hallman, Grady L., Cooley, Denton A.
Interrupted aortic arch (IAA) is an uncommon congenital anomaly representing approximately 1% of congenital heart disease. More than 97% of the cases also have associated cardiac anomalies...
Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return: Report of 201 Patients Treated Surgically
Reardon, Michael J., Cooley, Denton A., Kubrusly, Luiz, Ott, David A., Johnson, William, Kay, Gregory L., ...
Between 1956 and June 1984, 201 patients with uncomplicated total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) were operated on at the Texas Heart Institute and Texas Children's Hospital. Two groups...
Human Cardiac Explantation and Autotransplantation: Report of a Case
Cooley, Denton A., Reardon, Michael J., Angelini, Paolo
A rare paraganglioma of the chromaffin type, located intrapericardially, was removed from a 42-year-old man by autotransplantation of the heart. Although the results were unfavorable in this case,...
Blacque, Oliver E., Reardon, Michael J., Li, Chunmei, McCarthy, Jonathan, Mahjoub, Moe R., Ansley, Stephen J., ...
Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a genetically heterogeneous developmental disorder whose molecular basis is largely unknown. Here, we show that mutations in the Caenorhabditis elegans bbs-7 and bbs-8...
Autotransplantation for Central Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer in a Patient with Poor Pulmonary Function
Reardon, Michael J., Walkes, Jon-Cecil M., Rice, David C.
Lung resection is the standard therapy for non-small-cell lung cancer confined to the lung. The extent of pulmonary resection is dictated by the location and extent of the tumor and the patient's...
Darouiche, Rabih O., Berger, David H., Khardori, Nancy, Robertson, Claudia S., Wall, Matthew J., Metzler, Michael H., ...
In this prospective, randomized, multicenter clinical trial, long-term central venous catheters impregnated with minocycline and rifampin were 4-fold less likely than tunneled unimpregnated catheters...

Cardiac Autotransplantation for Surgical Resection of a Primary Malignant Left Ventricular Tumor
Reardon, Michael J., Walkes, Jon-Cecil M., DeFelice, Clement A., Wojciechowski, Zbigniew
Primary cardiac sarcomas are rare. In such tumors, surgical resection is sometimes considered necessary to correct obstruction of flow caused by the tumor and to accomplish complete resection. The...
Evidence for an Active Inflammatory Process in the Hibernating Human Myocardium
Frangogiannis, Nikolaos G., Shimoni, Sarah, Chang, Su Min, Ren, Guofeng, Shan, Kesavan, Aggeli, Constandina, ...
Myocardial hibernation refers to a state of prolonged impairment of left ventricular function in the presence of coronary artery disease, which may be reversed by revascularization. In this study we...
