Abstract
We present a case of dissecting aneurysm of ascending aorta in a 15-year-old patient secondary to Takayasu arteritis with concomitant tuberculosis, with an emphasis on multimodality imaging findings and to illustrate preoperative and postoperative medical management. Antituberculosis therapy, high-dose corticosteroids, antiplatelet therapy, and β-blockers were administrated during the initial active phase. The patient presented with acute chest pain 3 months after medical therapy initiation. We performed an ascending aorta and aortic arch replacement with branched Dacron grafts. Only a handful of similar, but not identical, cases of Takayasu arteritis with concomitant tuberculosis leading to aortic dissection have been described previously.

Abstract
Aims Totally subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) delivers higher shock energy and can have longer time to therapy compared to transvenous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (T-ICD). Aim of the study was to compare time to therapy and to investigate cardiac, cerebral and systemic injuries of S-ICD and T-ICD shocks delivered after ventricular fibrillation (VF) induction. Methods and results Fourteen pigs were randomly implanted with a S-ICD (n = 7) or a T-ICD (n = 7). Five VF episodes were induced in each pig. For each VF episode, up to two shocks could be delivered by the T-ICD or the S-ICD to terminate the arrhythmia. Cardiac, systemic, and cerebral toxicity were monitored. Mean time to therapy was longer in the S-ICD group compared to the T-ICD group (19[18; 23] s vs. 9 [7; 10] s; P = 0.001, respectively). High-sensitivity troponin T levels were significantly higher in the T-ICD group from 1 to 24 h after the procedure (P ≤ 0.02). Creatine phosphokinase activity levels were significantly higher in the S-ICD group, at 3, 6, and 24 h after the procedure (P ≤ 0.05). Lactate levels were not significantly different between groups. S100 protein level was similar in both groups at 1 h after the procedure and then decreased in the T-ICD group compared to the S-ICD group (P = 0.04). Conclusions Time to therapy in S-ICD was twice as long as for T-ICD, but didn't induce relevant brain injury. Conversely, S-ICD shocks were less cardiotoxic than T-ICD shocks.

Abstract
Pancarditis is a rare condition with a poor prognosis combining endocarditis, myocarditis with abscess formation, and purulent pericarditis. Diagnosis is often delayed and the clinical signs are predominantly those of the embolic complications. Literature is scarce. We present a unique and rare case of pancarditis, complicating a Streptococcal B infection in an immunocompetent, healthy, 54 year-old woman. The evolution was favourable under medical therapy alone and thanks to multimodality cardiac imaging diagnosis and follow-up.

Abstract
Primary cardiac lymphomas (PCLs) are rare in immunocompetent patients. Their clinical presentation is highly variable and in case of cardiogenic shock, death is often inevitable with a diagnosis made post-mortem. We report the case of a 65-year old immunocompetent man with cardiogenic shock requiring emergent extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Soon after, a diagnosis of PCL was given and chemotherapy was delivered under ECMO support. The patient was progressively weaned from the mechanical support. Six months later, he had fully recovered.

Abstract
We describe the case of a 57-year-old woman with noncompaction of the left ventricle and regurgitant bicuspid aortic valve who presented with progressive congestive heart failure and was successfully treated with aortic root replacement. The long-term outcome for these patients is poor because of progressive left ventricular impairment, increased rates of life-threatening arrhythmias, and intraventricular thrombi. To our knowledge, only 3 patient with noncompaction of the left ventricle has been reported to have undergone aortic valve replacement for severely regurgitant bicuspid aortic valve. Herein, we describe a patient with noncompaction of the left ventricle who underwent successful mechanical aortic root replacement.

Abstract
There is conflicting evidence guiding valve prosthesis selection in patients with end-stage renal disease on dialysis. We sought to determine, after reviewing the relevant literature, the best valve substitute in patients on chronic dialysis. A total of 9 retrospective studies compared the outcomes of two valves, showing similar results and highlighting the safety of implanting bioprostheses in patients on chronic dialysis. Standards of valve selection have changed over time; it has long been believed that tissue valves undergo premature degeneration due to calcium metabolism derangements in patients with end-stage renal disease. Bleeding was the most common valve-related complication and represented a major drawback of mechanical valves. Two studies demonstrated a survival advantage in favour of mechanical prostheses. It can be concluded that surgeons should not hesitate to implant bioprostheses because singular valve decomposition would be uncommon in this patient population. Prosthesis selection should be based on the same criteria as those used for non-dialysis patients.

Abstract
Management of late sternal dehiscence is challenging and time consuming. Although numerous techniques exist including rewiring and titanium plates screwing to stabilize the sternum, we describe an alternative technique by using four titanium clips and one connecting bar.
