Author: Furutachi A, Furukawa K, Shimauchi K, Yunoki J, Itoh M, Takamatsu M, Nogami E, Mukae Y, Nishida T. Journal: Gen Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 2019 Aug; 67(8):712-714. PubMed ID: 29876725. Abstract: We report a case of a 66-year-old man who was diagnosed with severe aortic regurgitation, moderate tricuspid regurgitation and chronic atrial fibrillation.

This approach provided an adequate field of view.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
