The current paper explores the mutual impact of psychological factors and cardiac surgery on each other using bibliometric analysis with the help of indicative cited publications, co-cited journals, and collaborations between countries, institutions, and authors. Citation analysis is an attractive methodology because it provides quantitative information that is readily acquired with electronic databases and that can be compared across topic areas. The bibliometric investigation was done using the PubMed database, Scopus, Web of Science, etc. with the help of appropriate MeSH words. Followed by an analysis of data with the help of CiteSpace 5.3.R4, Microsoft Excel 2016, and IBM SPSS Statistics 20.0 software (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). The software extracts the number of scientific publications, citation frequency, and keyword trends. Relational figures and tables were obtained for data interpretation. The records of 259 articles were analyzed using bibliometric investigation which shows the increasing incidence of psychological consequences linked with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. This indicates that immediate management is required to overcome this. The present bibliometric study emphasizes the need for psychological screening and management of post-CABG patients. This will lay the path for organizing and prioritizing future research on vascular psychiatry and its early management.

The most known of all primary cardiac tumors is myxoma, which is most usually detected in the left atrium. As there are no physical signs or symptoms, a diagnosis is rarely made purely based on clinical evidence. Our study aims to investigate the case of post-operative left atrial myxoma with cerebellar signs. A 50-year-old woman complained of dizziness and syncope, which caused her to collapse on the floor early in the morning. Myxoma in the left atrium and mitral valve regurgitation was discovered after prompt medical assistance. She was recommended for surgery to excise the left atrial myxoma and mitral valve repair. Post the surgery, she developed breathing difficulties and cerebellar signs for which she was referred for physiotherapy. She underwent two weeks of tailor-made inpatient rehabilitation. This case study intends to emphasize the importance of early diagnosis, treatment, and, most importantly, rehabilitation to return the patient to her functional state. A structured exercise regimen assists the patient while also reducing post-surgery problems. Timely monitoring and treatment are projected to improve outcomes in patients treated with a multidisciplinary approach.
