    Abstract Key clinical message: Ultrasound-assisted small catheter placement may be considered in cases where computed tomography guidance is unavailable, and ultrasound can identify pleural effusions clearly, even in cases where empyema is localized solely on the dorsal side.
    Abstract: Thoracic catheter insertion for empyema can be challenging when the pleural effusion is localized dorsally and computed tomography guidance is unavailable. We report the case of a 40-year-old man with acute dorsal bacterial empyema who underwent successful ultrasound-assisted catheter placement in an orthopneic position.

    Abstract Background: Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is a complex cyanotic congenital heart disease. As most patients with TOF undergo palliative or radical surgical repair during childhood, cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) for adult survivors with unrepaired TOF is exceedingly rare.
    Case presentation: A 41-year-old woman with unrepaired TOF, pulmonary atresia (PA), and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (MAPCAs) developed acute infectious endocarditis (IE). As vegetation gradually increased despite intravenous antibiotic administration, she was scheduled for urgent aortic valve replacement under CPB. Pulmonary blood flow was primarily provided by the MAPCAs originating from the descending aorta. Intra-aortic balloon occlusion for MAPCAs was performed to ensure a bloodless surgical field. Aortic valve replacement was successful.
    Conclusion: An adult with uncorrected TOF developed acute IE and subsequently had successful cardiac surgery under CPB. Understanding TOF physiology with PA and MAPCAs, particularly pulmonary blood flow through MAPCAs, is crucial.

    Abstract Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI)-associated coagulopathy significantly influences survival outcomes in patients with multiple injuries. Severe TBI can potentially affect systemic hemostasis due to coagulopathy; however, there is limited evidence regarding whether the risk of hemorrhage increases in patients with pelvic fractures complicated with TBI. Therefore, through multivariable analysis, we aimed to examine the association between severe TBI and increased blood transfusion requirements in patients with pelvic fractures.
    Materials and methods: This retrospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary care facility in Japan. Patients aged 16 years or older with pelvic fractures who were admitted to our intensive care unit between April 2014 and December 2021 were included in the analysis. The patients were categorized into no to mild and severe TBI groups according to whether the Head Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) score was 3 or higher. The primary outcome was the number of red blood cell (RBC) units transfused within 24 h after arrival at the hospital. The primary outcome was analyzed using univariable and multivariable linear regression analyses. The covariates used for the multivariable linear regression analysis were age, sex, antithrombotic therapy, mechanism of injury, Pelvic AIS score, and extravasation on contrast-enhanced computed tomography on admission.
    Results: We identified 315 eligible patients (221 and 94 in the no to mild and severe TBI groups, respectively). In the univariable analysis, the RBC transfusion volume within 24 h after arrival was significantly higher in the severe TBI group than in the no to mild TBI group (2.53-unit increase; 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 0.46-4.61). However, in the multivariable analysis, no statistically significant association was detected between severe TBI and the RBC transfusion volume within 24 h after arrival at the hospital (0.87-unit increase; 95 % CI: -1.11-2.85).
    Conclusions: Concomitant severe TBI was not associated with increased RBC transfusion volumes in patients with pelvic fractures on multivariable analysis.

    Abstract Background: Nonoperative management (NOM) has become a standard strategy for hemodynamically stable patients with blunt splenic injury; however, delayed rupture of splenic pseudoaneurysm (SPA) is a serious complication of NOM. In medical literature, data regarding the long-term incidence of SPA are scarce, and the appropriate timing for performing follow-up contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) has not yet been reported. This study aimed to elucidate the long-term incidence and timing of SPA formation after blunt splenic injury in patients treated with NOM.
    Methods: This descriptive study was conducted at a tertiary medical center in Japan. Patients with blunt splenic injury who were treated with NOM between April 2014 and August 2020 were included in the analysis. Included patients underwent repeated contrast-enhanced CT to detect SPA formation. The primary outcome was the cumulative incidence of delayed formation of SPA. We also evaluated differences in SPA formation between patients who received transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE; TAE group) and those who did not receive it (non-TAE group) on admission day.
    Results: Among 49 patients with blunt splenic injury who were treated with NOM, 5 patients (10.2%) had delayed formation of SPA. All cases of SPA formation occurred within 15 days of injury. The incidence of SPA formation was not significantly different between the TAE and non-TAE groups (1/19 vs. 4/30, P = 0.67).
    Conclusions: SPA developed in 10% of patients within approximately 2 weeks after blunt splenic injury. Therefore, performing follow-up contrast-enhanced CT in this period after injury may be useful to evaluate delayed formation of SPA. Although our findings are novel, they should be confirmed through future studies with larger sample sizes.
