- Total endoscopic ablation of atrial fibrillation is a treatment option in symptomatic patients after unsuccessful catheter ablation or when catheter ablation is considered inappropriate. We describe a technique of endoscopic ablation of the left atrium using temperature-controlled unipolar or bipolar radiofrequency. A left atrial box lesion encircling the pulmonary veins is created using three ports in the right hemithorax. The technical aspects and preliminary results of the procedure are discussed.

- Minimally invasive cardiac surgery such as a mitral valve procedure requires femoral arterial cannulation for extracorporeal circulation. To avoid complications associated with surgical groin incisions, such as seromas and infections, percutaneous cannulation techniques can be used. This video tutorial illustrates percutaneous femoral cannulation and decannulation using a plug-based vascular closure device.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Pleural effusion following cardiac surgery is a common complication that sometimes requires invasive treatment. Conventional methods for evacuation include needle aspiration and chest tube insertion. We present an effective, easy and potentially time-saving method of thoracocentesis, using a single-lumen central venous catheter.
