 | | Denervation of carotid sinus baro- and chemoreceptors in humans may occur as a complication of invasive interventions on the neck or after experimental surgical treatment in asthma. | | | Inadvertent denervation of carotid sinus baro- and chemoreceptors in humans may occur as a complication of invasive interventions on the neck like carotid body tumour surgery, radiotherapy and endarterectomy. | | | Information on the impact of carotid sinus denervation in humans is limited and largely relies on investigations following iatrogenic damage to the carotid sinus as a complication of medical interventions like carotid body tumour surgery, jugular radiotherapy and carotid endarterectomy. |

| | Pathology of Congenital Heart Disease |
| | Many other congenital anomalies may be present, for example, hypoplastic left heart, however, this would be with good aortic valve size and ascending aorta and mitral atresia may sometimes be present. | | | The commissures may be fused, the valve ring is occasionally hypoplastic. | | | The main pulmonary artery is in such a position with the left ventricle allowing direct flow into the right pulmonary artery and it will consequently become larger and more flow to the right pulmonary artery and right lung. |

| | This study explores the use of aortic implantation employing alternative methods to achieve coronary transfer in all patients, regardless of the site of origin of the anomalous coronary artery, avoiding the problems of bypass grafts and tunnel procedures. | | | Aortic cross-clamping time ranged from 22 to 79 minutes (mean 54 minutes). | | | This technique avoids detachment and resuspension of the intercoronary commissure and thus lessens the risk of post-operative aortic valve regurgitation. |

| | Aneurysm of sinus of Valsalva - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Medical therapy of aneurysm of the aortic sinus includes blood pressure control through the use of drugs, such as beta blockers. | | | This type of aneurysm is typically congenital and may be associated with heart defects. | | | The determination to perform surgery is usually based upon the diameter of the aortic root and the rate of increase in its size, as determined through repeated echocardiography. |

| | Cardiac surgery, especially to the atria, is a common cause of sick sinus syndrome in children. | | | Sick sinus syndrome may also be associated with tachycardias (fast heart rate) such as PSVT and atrial fibrillation. | | | Coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, and aortic and mitral valve diseases may be associated with sick sinus syndrome, although this association may only be incidental. |
