Article Citation - Scopus: 6Coronary Bypass Surgery in Octogenarians(2001) Arbatli, H.; Unal, M.; Demirsoy, E.; Tansal, S.; Yagan, N.; Tükenmez, F.; Sener, D.; 01. Kadir Has UniversityOBJECTIVE: The age of the patients referred for coronary bypass surgery is getting older progressively. Early and late postoperative outcome of octogenarians were evaluated and compared with younger age group in this study. METHODS: Records of 55 patients aged 80 years or older (mean age 82.7 +/- 2.8) among 3834 patients, who had coronary bypass graft procedure, operated between 1995 and 2001 were reviewed retrospectively. RESULTS: There were 39 men (70.9%) and 16 women (29.1%). Three patients had aortic valve replacement, 1 had left ventricular aneurysm repair, 1 had carotid endarterectomy additionally. Atrial fibrillation (21.8%), renal dysfunction (16.4%), and prolonged ventilation (10.9%) were the prominent complications. The hospital mortality rate was 7.27% (4 patients). Kaplan Meier Survival Analysis estimated that at the end of 5 years 83.1 + 5.2% of patients were still alive. CONCLUSION: Coronary bypass operations can be performed in octogenarians with slightly increased but acceptable hospital mortality and longer hospital stay. Early intervention and individual modifications in cardiopulmonary bypass techniques may improve the results in this patient population.Note Citation - Scopus: 1Isolated Left Ventricular Diverticulum in an Adult: Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Mri Findings(2005) Duran, Cihan; Kantarcı, Mecit; Karaman, Kutlay; 01. Kadir Has University[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation - WoS: 5The surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation(Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2007) Akpınar, Belhhan; Sağbaş, Ertan; Güden, Mustafa; Sanisoğlu, İlhan; 01. Kadir Has UniversityThe surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) has entered a new era with the development of new tools and advanced techniques. The Maze III operation remains as the gold standard for the surgical treatment of AF. However new energy sources have been adopted for treating this arrhythmia in an effort to reduce the invasiveness and technical concerns with the original procedure. Success rates ranging between 70-98% have been reported using these new techniques. On the other hand interventional cardiologists have further improved their techniques so that percutaneous techniques are competing with minimally invasive ablation techniques for the treatment of drug resistant and symptomatic lone AF. These developments have aroused the interest of cardiac surgeons in AF surgery and have found themselves a wide application. It has been estimated that thirty thousand patients have undergone surgical ablation for AF so far. Inevitably procedure related complications have occurred and caused skepticism by some groups. However surgical ablation has become a widely accepted treatment modality for AF patients undergoing concomitant cardiac surgery. The aim of this text is to make an overall review of the surgical treatment of AF and evaluate the current situation in view of the literature and the personal experience of the authors.Article Citation - Scopus: 5The Surgical Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation [atriyal Fibrilasyonun Cerrahi Tedavisi](2007) Akpınar, Belhhan; Sağbaş, Ertan; Güden, Mustafa; Sanisoğlu, İlhan; 01.
