目的 總結單心室瓣膜反流的外科治療經驗，觀察治療效果。 方法 回顧性分析2006年7月至2012年1月上海交通大學醫學院附屬新華醫院61例單心室患者的臨床資料，其中男36例，女25例；手術年齡2個月至 20歲；體重2～58 kg。右心室型41例，左心室型13例，未定型型7例。根據瓣膜反流程度不同分為3組，無/微量反流組：28例，瓣膜未行處理；輕/中度反流組：21例，瓣膜未行處理；重度反流組：12例，手術同期行瓣膜成形。收集所有患者住院及隨訪資料，分析輕/中度反流組、重度反流組瓣膜反流變化趨勢，以及影響瓣膜反流的因素。結果 住院死亡5例，住院死亡率8.2% （5/61）。重度反流組患者行瓣膜成形術后反流程度較術前明顯減輕（由術前4.00級下降至術后2.08級）。隨訪56例，隨訪時間6～38個月，重度反流組隨訪10例，隨訪期間死亡2例，其余8例中重度反流2例，中度反流3例，輕度反流2例，微量反流1例；瓣膜反流程度增加趨勢明顯（由術后平均2.08級增加至平均2.75級）。輕/中度反流組隨訪19例，隨訪中無死亡，其中反流程度增加至重度3例（原1例輕度反流，2例中度反流），反流程度由輕度增加至中度3例，瓣膜反流程度由術后平均2.33級增加為平均2.58級。輕/中度反流組瓣膜反流增加率與無/輕微反流組比較差異無統計學意義（瓣膜反流增加率為31.5% vs. 19.2%，χ2=0.36，P=0.55）。單因素分析結果顯示，瓣膜反流增加者在隨訪過程中心功能較瓣膜反流無變化或減輕者明顯降低（術后左心室射血分數53.11%±5.61% vs. 59.65%±3.32%，t =-5.49，P=0.00），而左心室舒張期末容積較瓣膜反流無變化或減輕者明顯增加（t =2.58，P=0.01）。 結論 單心室合并重度瓣膜反流行瓣膜成形術近期效果較好，但隨著心功能下降、心室擴張，瓣膜反流程度加重趨勢明顯；輕/中度瓣膜反流可暫不進行處理，但部分患者瓣膜反流有增加趨勢，提示應注重術后隨訪。
ObjectiveTo summarize the experience of treating adult recurrent pectus excavatum without plate turnover.MethodsTwenty-seven patients with recurrent pectus excavatum treated by thoracoscopy-assisted placement without plate turnover from 2010 to 2019 in our hospital were enrolled. There were 23 males and 4 females with the age of 3-29 (12.81±7.79) years at the first operation, and 18-29 (21.74±3.56) years at this operation. Incision of 2-3 cm at bilateral axillary midline of the deepest point of pectus excavatum was made, and an auxiliary incision under xiphoid process was adopted according to the intraoperative situation.ResultsAll patients underwent thoracoscopy-assisted correction of pectus excavatum without bar turnover, and subxiphoid incision was performed in 11 patients. Twenty-five patients had one bar placed, and two patients required two bars. The operation time was 28-45 (33.00±6.44) min. Postoperative Haller index (2.95±0.40) was improved compared with preoperation (4.63±1.03). The postoperative hospital stay was 4-6 (4.00±0.32) day. All patients were followed up for 1-8 years. Complications included poor wound healing in 1 patient, and steel wire fracture and displacement in 1 patient. There was no plate rotation or bar displacement. Fourteen patients removed the bar 29-84 (40.36±13.93) months after the placement. Haller index was improved to 2.43-3.61 (2.86±0.35) during removal of steel plate. Untill June 2020, there was no recurrence of pectus excavatum.ConclusionThe treatment of adult recurrent pectus excavatum without plate turnover is satisfactory, and the protection of intercostal muscle and firm fixation is the key to ensure the success of operation and long-term effects.
Objective To compare the short-term outcomes of small thoracotomy and thoracoscopic approach for pediatric lobectomy. Methods From June 2011 to June 2016, 42 patients with lung diseases undertook lobectomy in Xinhua Hospital. There were 24 males and 18 females with an average age of 7.13±5.00 years, ranging from 4 months to 16 years. According to different operation methods, they were divided into a thoracoscopy group (n=22) and a small incision group (n=20). Duration of operation, intraoperative blood loss, duration of postoperative drainage, and postoperative hospital stay and complications between the two groups were recorded and compared. Results There was no significant difference in the age, body weight between the two groups (8.44±4.99 yearsvs. 5.68±4.69 years,t=1.84,P=0.07; 34.18±16.52 kgvs. 25.03±18.06 kg,t=1.72,P=0.09). Two patients (9%) undergoing thoracoscopy required conversion to small thoracotomy. Perioperative outcomes, including operation time (151.64±74.59 minvs. 136.40±50.36 min,t=0.77,P=0.45), intraoperative blood loss (43.41±45.91 mlvs. 79.50±131.00 ml,t=–1.21,P=0.23), drainage duration (5.00±1.79 dvs. 4.90±2.36 d,t=0.23,P=0.82), length of hospital stay (8.41±3.11 dvs. 8.65±2.66 d,t=–0.27,P=0.79) showed no significant differences between the two groups. One patient suffered pneumonia in thoracoscopy group after operation and the rest patients recovered well without severe complications such as atelectasis, active bleeding and bronchopleural fistula. Conclusion Lobectomy via small thoracotomy and thoracoscopic approach is effective and safe for pediatric patients with equivalent short-term outcomes. While thoracoscopic surgery with relatively small incision achieves good cosmetic outcome.
ObjectiveTo share the clinical experience of thoracoscopic unidirectional posterolateral basal segmentectomy via inferior pulmonary ligament.MethodsAll the patients were in the healthy lateral position, with endoscopy holes in the 8th intercostal space of the middle axillary line and 2-3 cm operation holes in the 5th intercostal space of the front axillary line. Anatomical segmentectomy of the posterolateral basal vein, bronchus and artery was performed through the inferior pulmonary ligament upward in turn. The clinical data of this group were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsFrom December 2015 to October 2018, 32 patients underwent thoracoscopic unidirectional posterolateral basal segmentectomy, including 8 males and 24 females, aged 13-71 (52.6±13.7) years. All patients successfully completed the operation, including 9 patients of left lower pulmonary posterolateral basal segmentectomy, 23 patients of right lower pulmonary posterolateral basal segmentectomy. The operation time was 80-295 (133.4 ±40.5) minutes, intraoperative bleeding volume was 20-300 (52.6±33.8) mL, drainage time was 2-14 (4.2±2.3) days, hospitalization time was 4-15 (6.9 ±2.4) days. No death occurred during hospitalization. Postoperative complications included atelectasis in 1 patient and persistent pulmonary leakage over 3 days (4 or 6 days respectively) in 2 patients , chylothorax in 1 patient. All of them recovered smoothly after non-operative treatments. Postoperative pathology showed that 29 patients of primary adenocarcinoma or atypical adenomatoid hyperplasia, including 5 patients of adenocarcinoma in situ, 9 patients of micro-invasive adenocarcinoma, 12 patients of invasive adenocarcinoma, 3 patients of atypical adenomatoid hyperplasia. One patient was of intestinal metastatic adenocarcinoma, 1 patient of inflammatory lesion and 1 patient of bronchiectasis. 3-21(9.6±4.6) lymph nodes were resected in the patients with primary pulmonary malignant tumors. And no metastasis was found.ConclusionThe operation of thoracoscopic unidirectional posterolateral basal segmentectomy via inferior pulmonary ligament is easy. There is no need to open intersegmental tissue. It can protect lung tissue better. The operative method is worthy of clinical promotion.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility and safety of single utility port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) anatomic segmentectomy for lung diseases. MethodsWe performed a retrospective review of 155 patients undergoing single utility port VATS anatomic segmentectomy from January 2015 to December 2016. There were 62 males and 93 females with a mean age of 53 (24–82) years. Two ports were used. The camera was through the port for observation which was about 1.5 cm in length and located at the 7th or 6th intercostal space. The instruments were through port for operation that was about 3–4 cm in length and located at the 4th or 3th intercostal space. Pulmonary segment vessel and segmental bronchi were cut and stitched by Hemolock or linear cut stapler. Different segments were separated by linear cut stapler. Perioperative data were collected and analyzed. ResultsOne patient was performed suture under the auxiliary operating hole (three holes) because of pulmonary artery bleeding. The remaining 154 patients underwent single utility port VATS anatomic segmentectomy successfully. No conversion to open procedure or lobectomy was found and there was no perioperative mortality. The median operative time was 102 (65–150) min and the median blood loss in operation was 118 (50–300) ml. The thoracic drainage time was 3.8 (2–7) d and the median hospital stay after operation was 5.6 (3–9) d . Major morbidity occurred in 8 patients (5.2%) including hemoptysis (in 2 patients), pneumonia (in 2 patients), aerodermectasia (in 1 patient), pleural effussion (in 1 patient) and local atelectasis (in 1 patient). All of them above healed after symptomatic treatment. Patholocal examination showed there were 139 patients of primary lung carcinoma (pathologically staged as Tis-T1bN0M0), 9 patients of benign diseases and 7 patients of metastasis tumor. ConclusionSingle utility port VATS anatomic segmentectomy procedure is safe and feasible. It can be utilized as an option for those with non-small cell lung cancer staged Ⅰa and those unable to tolerate pulmonary lobectomy.
Objective To share the experience of single-stage bilateral pulmonary resections by video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for multiple nodules. Methods Clinical records of patients undergoing one-stage bilateral resections of multiple pulmonary nodules between January 2015 and December 2016 in our institution were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. There were 9 males and 15 females, aged from 33 to 69 (55.0±8.0) years. Two patients underwent bilateral lobectomy. Lobar-sublobar (L/SL) resection and bilateral sublobar resection (SL-SL) were conducted in 9 patients and 13 patients respectively. Results All operations completed successfully. Operation time was 135–330 (231.4±59.1) min, duration of use of chest drains was 2–17 (5.4±3.1) days. Overall duration of hospitalization after surgery was 5–37 (8.6±6.3) days. There was no perioperative death. Postoperative course was uneventful in 17 (70.8%) patients. The postoperative complications included one patient of incision infection and one patient of pulmonary infection. Persistent air leak for >3 days duration and unilateral pleural drainage for more than 200 ml/d were observed in 3 patients and 2 patients respectively. Conclusion Single-stage bilateral surgery in selected patients with synchronous bilateral multiple nodules is feasible and associated with satisfactory outcomes.
Objective To introduce the surgical and perioperative strategy for giant mediastinal mass. Methods The clinical data of 21 patients with giant mediastinal mass who underwent surgical treatment in Xinhua Hospital of Shanghai from January 2007 to July 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 14 males and 7 females, with a mean age of 34.62 ± 22.95 years (range: 11 months to 79 years), and mean weight of 58.07±22.24 kg (range: 10.8 to 90.5 kg). Their clinical manifestation, anesthesia methods, surgical treatment and the prognosis were analyzed. Results The tumor volume ranged from 8 cm×6 cm×6 cm to 25 cm×25 cm×8 cm. For surgical approach, 12 patients received median sternotomy, 5 anterior lateral incision, 1 posterior lateral incision, 2 "L"-shape sternotomy, 1 cervical and thoracic "]"-shape incision. All patients were given mass radical resection, except one patient with two-stage resection. Twelve patients needed other tissues resection besides the single tomor resection. The operation time was 55-480 (207.86±87.67) min, blood loss volume 700 (10-4 000) ml, intraoperative blood transfusion 800 (0-4 100) ml, postoperative mechanical ventilation time 4.75 (0-87) h, postoperative drainage time 3-12 (7.43±2.66) d, the total drainage volume 295-4 940 (1 584.76±1 173.98) ml, average daily drainage volume 62-494 (204.90±105.76) ml, and postoperative hospital stay 7-47 (11.86±8.51) d. The postoperative complications included pericardial effusion in 1 patient, Horner syndrome in 1, left recurrent laryngeal nerve injury with the left phrenic nerve injury in 1, right phrenic nerve injury in 1 and delayed wound healing in 1. The remaining patients recovered well. All patients were followed up for 1 month to 9 years. Till September 1, 2016, 5 patients died and 2 suffered recurrent tumor. Conclusion It is safe to perform surgical treatment after comprehensive evaluation of patients with giant mediastinal mass, perioperative mortality is low, and prognosis in patients with benign tumor is good.
