“…Entretanto, todos os autores citados a respeito demonstram ser a operação de Cox procedimento que demanda tempo operatório maior, mesmo quando realizada deforma isolada: SANDOVAL et al (44) e MACARTHY et al (45) referiram tempo prolongado de circulação extracorpórea e de parada anóxica. KOSAKAI et al (46) , em pacientes com lesão valvar mitral, demonstraram tempo médio de circulação extracorpórea de 226 minutos e tempo médio de pinçamento aórtico de 142 minutos.…”

“…[21][22][23][24] The unacceptably high rates of persistent or new AF and AFL after adult ASD surgery (with their associated risks of stroke and chronic drug therapy) in conjunction to the small added risk of performing an AF surgical procedure, such as the modified Cox-Maze procedure, support their combination in such high risk patients. [100][101] The combination of the two surgical procedures has been associated with an approximately 85% rate of restoring sinus rhythm, a 90% rate of maintaining sinus rhythm and a significant improvement in New York Heart Association classification 8 months after combined surgery [102][103] with rates heavily dependent on the pre-operative size of the left atrium and the magnitude of the atrial fibrillatory wave 103 Nevertheless, surgical repair of ASDs carries significant morbidity and mortality. 23,89,99,104 Percutaneous closure has recently emerged as an attractive alternative to the traditional open-chest procedures.…”

“…The surgical community has not reached unanimity of opinion as to what constitutes a standard prophylactic maze procedure (1,(17)(18)(19)(20)(21). While the operation was conceived to be complication-free owing to the lesions being placed in areas that theoretically do not interfere with normal sinus rhythm mechanism and one-toone conduction, the reality is that there have been reported cases of sinus node dysfunction resulting in nodal rhythm following maze procedures (21,22). Understandably, one must approach such a conundrum with a rationale as to which forms of heart disease are associated with sufficiently high risk of developing arrhythmia ( Table 1) (16) to warrant consideration for prophylactic arrhythmia surgery, as well as clarity regarding the set of prophylactic lesions to be performed, the appropriate lesion sets, and techniques.…”

“…Invocation of bioethical principles of nonmaleficence, beneficence, patient autonomy, and justice all come to mind and apply (1,(23)(24)(25). The idea is to establish the historic incidence of these arrhythmias, identify the arrhythmia (right-sided, left-sided, both right and left sided) and offer a safe, effective, and complication-free prophylactic procedure (4,22,(26)(27)(28).…”
