In the field of microsurgery, the vascular obstruction of the microvascular anastomosis by thrombus is one of the most important complication. The purpose of this study is to compare the effect between aspirin and prostaglandin $E_1$($PGE_1$) which act as the peripheral vasodilatation and platelet disaggregation. We have used total 48 white male rats and divided them into three gruoups(A, B and C group). Each group consists of 16 rats respectively. A group is as control, B group is medicated with aspirin(3.0mg/kg/day) and C group with $PGE_1(1.2{\mu}g/kg/day)$. The gross and histopathologic findings at anastomosed site were observed on 3, 5, 10 and 15 days after vascular anastomosis and the results were obtained as the followings. 1. The microvascular patency rate is 81.2% in control group, 93.8% in aspirin group and 100% in $PGE_1$ group. 2. On the histologic examination, the formation of mural thrombus is decreased both in the aspirin and $PGE_1$ group as comparing with the control group and also the hypertrophy of the intima forming from media is less formed in $PGE_1$ group than aspirin group and the degree of thickeness is also less. 3. The fibrosis of media is less observed in $PGE_1$ group than aspirin group. According to the above results, the application of $PGE_1$ to the microsurgery is considered to be effective on the prevention of the thrombus formation and on providing high patency rate.
Background: This study was aimed at analyzing the preoperative conditions post-operative results indication and methods of surgical closure of patent ducturs arterio년 in prematures low birth weight infants and neonates. Patients and Methods: We retro-spectively studied two groups of patients (prematures group and neonates group) who underwent surgical closure of the patent ductus arteriosus between March 1995 and June 1998. Results: The premature group consisted of 9 patients(3 males and 6 females) Their mean gestational period was 30.7 weeks(ranging from 26 weeks to 33 weeks) mean age 27.8 days(11 days to 55 days) and mean body weight 1.56 kg. Prominent preoperative symptoms were dependency on mechanical ventilation generalized edema and hepatomegaly. We performed PDA ligation via thoracotomy in all premature patients. The neonate group consisted of 16 patients and their mean body weight was 3.75 kg. Major symptoms of this group was tachypnea and intercostal retraction resistant to medical treatment. We performed video-assisted PDA clipping to them all. There were no postoperative complications or operation-related mortality in both groups. Comparing the ratio of size of PDA(mm)/body weight(kg) the ratio of premature group (ligation through thoracotomy) was higher than that of neonate group ( video-assisted clipping) that is 3,89:1.21(p=0.03) Conclusion : We conclude that the surgical closure of PDA can be a safe method of treatment for prematures low birth weight infants and neonates with compromised general conditions. Choice of surgical technique depends on the surgeon's preference but there was a tend-ency to choose the ligation method through thoracotomy for patients with small body weight and large PDA.
A clinical study was performed on 69 cases of isolated PDA surgically treated at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular surgery of Kyung-Hee University Hospital from Mar. 1986 to Feb. 1994. Retrospective clinical analysis of these patients were as follows: 1.23 males and 46 females ranged in age from 16 days to 49 years. [mean 8.69yrs.,sex ratio M:F=1:2 2. Chief complaints were frequent URI in 44%, dyspnea on exertion in 16%,palpitation in 8%, easy fatigability in 6%, and no subjective symptoms in 26%. 3. On auscultation, typical continuous machinery murmur heard in 84%, and systolic murmur in 16% on Lt 2nd or 3rd intercostal space. 4. Simple chest x- ray showed increased pulmonary vascularity in 67%, cardiomegaly in 61%,and within normal limit in 16%. 5. EKG findings were LVH in 42%, biventricular hypertrophy in 17%, RVH in 3%, and within normal limit in 38%. 6. Echocardiogram was performed from all patient, and direct visualization of ductus in 93% 7. Cardiac catheterization was performed in 39 patients. The mean value of the results were;Differance SaO2[MPA-RV =11.03$\pm$ 5.26%,Qp/Qs=2.44$\pm$1.35,systolic pulmonary arterial pressure=40.69 $\pm$ 17.69mmHg. 8. 66 patients were operated through the left posterolateral thoracoctomy ; closure of ductus by double ligation in 43 cases, triple ligation in 23 cases.3 patients were operated by simple closure under cardiopulmonary bypass. 9. There was no death associated with the operation. The operative complications were atelectasis in 8 cases, pneumonia in 4 cases recannalization in 2 cases, and hoarseness in one case. 10. Systemic diastolic pressure was increased 8.12$\pm$ 0.13mmHg, and pulse pressure was decreased about 9.52 $\pm$ 1.87mmHg.
Since March 1988 we have performed 133 arteriovenous fistulae for hemodialysis in 121 patients with chronic renal failure. Of the 133 cases of arteriovenous fistulae, follow-up evaluation was possible for 80 cases which performed in 69 patients. The relation between blood flow and patency rate and duration of arteriovenous fistula was examined. The overall 6 - 12 - 18 -, and 24 - month patency rates of arteriovenous fistulae were 82%, 64%a, 62%, and 57%, respectively. The maximum blood flow was 150 ~ 350ml /min[mean 217.1$\pm$44.27]. The patency duration was evaluated in patients divided into three groups owing to maximum blood flow through the fistulae. The range of maximum blood flow was 150 ~ 200ml /min for group A, 200 ~ 250ml /min for group B, and above 250ml /min for group C. The mean duration of the patency was 10.7$\pm$7.60 months in group A, 14.9$\pm$9.82 months in group B, and 21.6$\pm$11.16 months in group C[p<0 05]. With increased maximum blood flow, the duration of the patency was longer in group A than group B and C [r=0.39, p<0. 05]. The maintenance blood flow was 100 ~ 250ml /min[mean 179.2$\pm$37.26 ml/min]. When the maintenance blood flow was above 200ml /min, long-term patency rate was higher than the group below 200ml /min[r=0.48, p<0.01]. In the same range of blood flow, patency duration of the patients with using their own blood vessels were longer than the patients with using vascular graft for A-V fistula. We concluded that the patency of the arteriovenous fistulae was closely correlated with the blood flow through the fistulae.
Congenital long-segment tracheal stenosis with complex cardiac anomaly has generally been regarded as a fatal disease This report described the successful concomitant repair of unexpected congenital tracheal stenosis and complex cardiac anomaly with the use of edrdiopulmonary bypass. The patient was a 3-month-old girl with coarctation of aorta, V D, and PDA. The presence of tracheal stenosis was not discovered until when difficulty with endotracheal intubation was encountered at operating room. Thus, we decided concomitant repair of both lesions and performed anterior pericardial tracheoplasty combined with one stage repair of coarctation of aorta, VSD, and PDA under the cardiopulmonary bypass. The patient is doing well without any signs of complication at present, 2 years and 1 month after the operation.
Surgical treatment for PDA has been pivotal in historical development of surgery for congenital heart disease. A clinical study on 36 cases of operated PDA were performed during period from Aug. 1981 to Jul. 1985 at the Department of Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgery in Chonbuk University. The following results are obtained. 1. The 8 males and 28 females ranged in age from 2 yrs, to 24 yrs, [mean 11 yrs.] 2. Chief complaints of the patients were dyspnea on exertion in 61%, palpitation in 39%, frequent URI in 12%, and no subjective symptoms in 11%. 3. On auscultation, continuous machinery murmur heard in 94% and systolic in 14%. 4. Radiologic findings of chest P-A showed increased density of pulmonary vascularity in 94%, cardiomegaly in 69%, and within normal limits in 5% of the patients. 5. EKG findings of the patients revealed LVH in 69%, RVH in 6%, BVH in 6%, and within normal limits in 17%. 6. Of the 36 patients, cardiac catheterization was performed in 34 patients. The results showed mean Qp/Qs = 2.25, mean Pp/Ps=0.42, and mean systolic pulmonary arterial pressure=53mmHg. 7. Surgical methods were as followed: The 32 case of ductal ligation and one case of division & suture technique for PDA through the left posterolateral thoracotomy were done. And 2 cases of ductal ligation one suture closure through the pulmonary artery were performed under the cardiopulmonary bypass. 8. Intraoperative complication was ductal rupture with division 8< suture for PDA and transient hoarseness in 1, recanalization in 1, and urethral stricture in 1 case postoperatively. 9. One patient died due to ductal rupture intraoperatively and operative mortality was 2.8%.
A 59 year-old male diagnosed as unstable angina underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery using in situ left internal mammary and right gastroepiploic artery grafts. During harvesting the right gastroepiploic artery, there was no abnormal finding in intraabdominal organs including stomach and liver. He was discharged at the 3rd postoperative day without complication. In case of using in situ right gastroepiploic artery, we recommend gastrofberscopic study at regular follow-up, The patient underwent the gastrofiberscopic study at postoperative 3rd month and diagnosed as advanced gastric cancer on the posterior wall of gastric fundus. At 5th postoperative month, total gastrectomy without intraoperative injury of the right gastroepiploic artery was performed at the department of general surgery. He was discharged at the 9th postoperative day. Follow-up coronary angiography performed at the 1st postoperative year demonstrated patent grafts including right gastroepiploic artery.
Purpose : We compared the underlying or associated diseases according to the frequency of platelet transfusions in neonates with thrombocytopenia to know the factors predicting which patients will require multiple platelet transfusions. We also compared mortality. Methods : A retrospective study was performed in 72 neonates who received the platelet transfusions in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU) between August 1996 and July 2001. Group I received one platelet transfusion and group II received two or more. We compared the frequency of underlying or assodiated diseases such as sepsis/disseminated intravascular coagulopathy(DIC), respiratory distress syndrome(RDS), intraventricular hemorrhage(IVH), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC), liver or renal disease, and mortality between two groups. Results : Of the 72 patients, 29(40.2%) received one and 43(59.7%) received two or more transfusions; 16(22.2%) received four or more. There were no statistically significant differences in gestational age, birth weight, sex, and maternal history between two groups. C-section rate was higher in group II(20.7% vs. 55.8%, P<0.05) and the incidence of PDA was higher in group I (55.2% vs. 30.2%, P<0.05). Otherwise, there were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of sepsis/DIC, RDS, IVH, RDS, CLD, NEC, liver or renal disease, pulmonary hemorrhage and hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, and mortality between group I and group II. Conclusion : There was no significant difference in clinical morbidity and mortality according to the frequency of platelet transfusion in neonates with thrombocytopenia. Further study is needed to know the predicting factor for multiple platelet transfusions in neonates with thrombocytopenia.
Recently, the number of coronary artery bypass surgery(CABG) is increasing according to the increasing incidence of coronary artery disease. However, CABG is not a definite corrective surgery; therefore, in some patients, redo-CABG may be required. We retrospectively reviewed our redo-CABG experiences to help future redo-CABG. Material and Method: From January 1991 to April 2001, 14 cases of redo-CABG were performed in Yonsei Cardiovascular Center(M:F=12:2) and mean age was 61,7 $\pm$ 7.1(47-72) years. Mean time from 1st. CABG to redo-CABG was 121.9 $\pm$ 50.5(6.1-179.6) months. Thirteen cases were conventional on-pump CABG and one case was off-pump CABG. In two patients, mitral valve re-replacement and mitral valve repair were performed each. All redo-CABG were performed through mid-sternotomy. During redo-CABG, left internal mammary artery and saphenous vein grafts were used in 6 patients, left internal mammary artery and left radial artery grafts were used in 2 patients, left internal mammary artery and gastroepiploic artery were used in one patient and only greater saphenous veins were used in 5 cases(In one case, cephalic vein was also used). The number of mean distal anastomosis was 2.1 $\pm$ 0.9(1-4). Result: There were no operative death and no perioperative myocardial infarctions and cerebrovascular accidents or other heart related complications. Mean follow up duration was 40.1 $\pm$ 38.6(1.1-118.5) months. During follow up period, angina was re-developed in one patient 13 months after operation. Two patients died of end-stage renal failure 14.8 months and 116.3 months after redo-CABG, respectively. During follow up period, coronary angiography was performed in 3 patients, and all grafts were patent. At last follow up, mean Canadian class was 1.3. Kaplan-Meier survival at 9 years was 90.0 $\pm$ 9.5% and event free survival at 9 years was 71.4 $\pm$ 6.9%. Conclusion: After redo-CABG, all patients improved their angina symptom and daily activity. And long-term survival after redo-CABG was excellent. Therefore, if patients have indications for redo-CABG, thenredo-CABG must be strongly recommended and performed.
Background: Surgical closure of a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) can be considered when conservative medical treatment is ineffective or contraindicated. Low weight and earlier gestational age neonates who are treated with conservative medical therapy generally showed a higher failure rate. The morbidity of surgical PDA closure in such extremely low birth weight (ELBW) neonates is also high. Here we present the early results of a new technique for approaching the PDA through a dorsal minithoracotomy. Material and Method: From March 2006 to November 2008, 24 premature neonates underwent surgical PDA closure. The procedures were performed in the newborn intensive care unit via a 2 cm long dorsal minithoracotomy with the baby in the prone position with the left hemithorax elevated 30$^{\circ}$. Bimanual cotton swab blunt dissection completed the extrapleural accesstothe PDA and then two clips were applied. Tube thoracostomy was avoided if there was no meaningful pleural laceration. Result: The infants mean gestational age was 26.5$\pm$2.1 weeks (range: 23 to 30 weeks) and the average age at operation was 11$\pm$11 days. The mean body weight at operation was 933$\pm$271 grams (range: 570 to 1,700 grams). Eight patients expired, but there was no procedure-related death. Postoperative echocardiography revealed two cases of residual shunt but none of these shunts were detected on the follow up echocardiogram that was performed on the post operative 5 and 59 days. Conclusion: We concluded that the technique described here is an effective procedure in view of the satisfactory operative exposure and the low rate of complications.
