Acute aortic valve regurgitation secondary to blunt chest trauma
(Texas Heart Inst., 2001) Ünal, Mehmet; Demirsoy, Ergun; Göğüş, Abdullah; Arbatlı, Harun; Hamzaoğlu, Azmi; Sönmez, Bingür
Blunt injury to the cardiac valves leads to progressive acute ventricular failure which often requires urgent surgical management In this case report we describe an acute aortic valve rupture caused by air-bag inflation during an automobile accident. Laceration of an aortic valve cusp was treated successfully with urgent aortic valve replacement. A concomitant orthopedic injury was treated electively 15 days after cardiac surgery. Acute aortic valve rupture is a very rare complication of blunt chest trauma. We discuss how to diagnose and manage this potentially catastrophic event.

(2001) Sönmez, Bingür; Tansal, Selim; Ünal, Mehmet; Korkut, Ali Kubilay; Yağan, Naci Erciyes; Demirsoy, Ergun; Arbatlı, Harun; Aytekin, Vedat
We report a case of pulmonary trunk aneurysm extending into the left pulmonary artery due to pulmonary hypertension secondary to mitral valve disease. The mitral valve was replaced with a bileaflet mechanical prosthesis. A Dacron graft interposed between main trunk and left pulmonary artery branch and right pulmonary branch attached to the graft in an end-to-side fashion. Early postoperative angiogram revealed a very successful treatment.

(Blackwell Futura Publishing Inc, 2003) Arbatlı, Harun; Özbek, Uğur; Demirsoy, Ergun; Ünal, Mehmet; Yağan, Naci; Sönmez, Bingür
Recurrence of ductal patency is a rarely encountered complication in surgical repair of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). An adult patient with ductal recurrency underwent closure of ductus by using cardiopulmonary bypass via transpulmonary approach. She had significant improvement of symptoms and no residual shunt or pseudoneurysm seven months after surgery.
