Objectives
This study aimed to clarify the impact of carotid or intracranial atherosclerosis on perioperative stroke in patients undergoing open aortic arch surgery.Methods
Between 2008 and 2015, 200 consecutive patients underwent elective aortic arch surgery with selective antegrade cerebral perfusion and moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest. Nonselective screening for carotid or intracranial atherosclerosis was performed using carotid ultrasonography or magnetic resonance angiography. Carotid or intracranial atherosclerosis was classified as below moderate (0%-49% stenosis), moderate (50%-69%), or severe (70%-100%). In patients with moderate or severe stenosis, cerebral hemodynamics were evaluated using single-photon emission computed tomography with acetazolamide.Results
None of the 37 patients undergoing preoperative single-photon emission computed tomography with acetazolamide had impaired cerebral hemodynamics. In-hospital mortality rate was 3.5% (7/200). Postoperative neurologic morbidity included permanent stroke in 8 patients (4.0%) and transient neurologic deficits in 27 patients (14%). Permanent stroke occurred in 3 of 159 patients (1.9%) with below moderate stenosis and 5 of 41 patients (12.2%) with moderate or severe stenosis (P = .008). Seven of 8 patients (87.5%) with stroke experienced multiple atherothrombotic embolizations, and 1 patient experienced a stroke of unknown cause. In multivariate analysis, previous cerebrovascular accident (odds ratio, 5.0; 95% confidence interval, 2.07-12.42; P = .0004) and shaggy aorta (odds ratio, 4.2; 95% confidence interval, 1.58-10.98; P = .0045) were significant determinants of neurologic morbidity.Conclusions
Embolism was the major cause of permanent stroke in our patient population. Preoperative craniocervical and aortic screening may aid in modifying the operative strategy to reduce the occurrence of stroke. 相似文献2.

Objective
Total arch replacement (TAR) is an established standard surgical procedure. We report >1000 cases of TAR using a 4-branched graft with antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) during a 15-year period.Methods
Since May 2001, 1005 patients who underwent total aortic replacement (mean age 69.8 ± 11.2 years; range, 9-92 years; 744 male) underwent TAR with a 4-branched graft. All surgeries were performed under hypothermia with ACP. There were 252 emergent operations for acute aortic dissection or aneurysm rupture. Concomitant operations included coronary arterial bypass grafting in 196 patients, aortic valve repair or replacement in 64, and aortic root replacements in 38.Results
The operation time was 482 ± 171 minutes, cardiopulmonary time was 254 ± 94 minutes, cardiac ischemia time was 145 ± 51 minutes, ACP time was 160 ± 47 minutes, and lower body circulatory arrest time was 62 ± 16 minutes. The hospital mortality rate was 5.2%. The permanent neurological dysfunction rate was 3.6% and temporary neurological dysfunction rate was 6.4%. There were no spinal cord complications. The 5-year survival rate was 80.7% and 10-year survival rate was 63.1%. Fifteen patients (1.5%) underwent reoperation for the arch grafts because of a pseudoaneurysm (11 patients), hemolysis (3 patients), and infection (1 patient).Conclusions
TAR using a 4-branched graft with ACP could be accomplished with acceptable short- and long-term results. 相似文献3.

Objective
To compare perioperative and long-term outcomes in patients undergoing hemiarch and aggressive arch replacement for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD).Methods
From 1996 to 2017, we compared outcomes of hemiarch (n = 322) versus aggressive arch replacements (zones 2 and 3 arch replacement with implantation of 2-4 arch branches, n = 150) in ATAAD. Indications for aggressive arch were arch aneurysm >4 cm or intimal tear in the aortic arch that was not resectable by hemiarch replacement, or dissection of arch branches with malperfusion.Results
Patients in the aggressive arch group were significantly younger (mean age: 57 vs 61 years old) and had significantly longer hypothermic circulatory arrest, cardiopulmonary bypass, and aortic crossclamp times. There were no significant differences in perioperative outcomes between hemiarch and aggressive arch groups, including 30-day mortality (5.3% vs 7.3%, P = .38) and postoperative stroke rate (7% vs 7%, P = .96). Over 15 years, Kaplan–Meier survival was similar between hemiarch and aggressive arch groups (log-rank P = .55, 10-year survival 70% vs 72%). Given death as a competing factor, incidence rates of reoperation over 15 years (2.1% vs 2.0% per year, P = 1) and 10-year cumulative incidence of reoperation (14% vs 12%, P = .89) for arch and distal aorta pathology were similar between the 2 groups.Conclusions
Both hemiarch and aggressive arch replacement are appropriate approaches for select patients with ATAAD. Aggressive arch replacement should be considered for an arch aneurysm >4 cm or an intimal tear at the arch unable to be resected by hemiarch replacement, or dissection of the arch branches with malperfusion. 相似文献4.

Background
The purpose of this analysis is to describe the differences in cardiac magnetic resonance characteristics between benign and malignant tumors, which would be helpful for surgical planning.Methods
This was a prospective cohort study of 130 patients who underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging for evaluation of a suspected cardiac mass. After excluding thrombi and tumors without definitive diagnosis, 66 tumors were evaluated for morphologic features and tissue composition.Results
Of the 66 patients, 39 (59.0%) had malignant tumors and 27 (41.0%) had benign tumors. Patients with malignant tumors were younger when compared with those with benign tumors (age 51 years [42.8-60.0] vs 65 years [60.0-71.0] median). Malignant tumors more often demonstrated tumor invasion (69% vs 0% P < .001) and were more often associated with pericardial effusion (41% vs 7.4% P = .004). Presence of first-pass perfusion (100% vs 33% P < .001) and late gadolinium enhancement (100% vs 59.2%, P < .001) were significantly higher in malignant tumors. In logistic regression modeling, tumor invasion (P < .001) and first-pass perfusion (P < .001) were independently associated with malignancy. Furthermore, using classification and regression tree analysis, we developed a decision tree algorithm to help differentiate benign from malignant tumors (diagnostic accuracy ~90%). The algorithm-weighted cost of misclassifying a malignant tumor as benign was twice that of classifying a benign tumor as malignant.Conclusions
Our study demonstrates that cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is a useful noninvasive method for differentiating malignant from benign cardiac tumors. Tumor size, invasion, and first-pass perfusion were useful imaging characteristics in differentiating benign from malignant tumors. 相似文献5.
Study Design
Two-group randomized controlled trial.Introduction
Upper limb orthoses worn during functional tasks are commonly used in pediatric neurologic rehabilitation, despite a paucity of high-level evidence.Purpose of the Study
The purpose of this study was to investigate if a customized functional wrist orthosis, when placed on the limb, leads to an immediate improvement in hand function for children with cerebral palsy or brain injury.Methods
A 2-group randomized controlled trial involving 30 children was conducted. Participants were randomized to either receive a customized functional wrist orthosis (experimental, n = 15) or not receive an orthosis (control, n = 15). The box and blocks test was administered at baseline and repeated 1 hour after experimental intervention, with the orthosis on if randomized to the orthotic group.Results
After intervention, there were no significant differences on the box and blocks test between the orthotic group (mean, 10.13; standard deviation, 11.476) and the no orthotic group (mean, 14.07; standard deviation, 11.106; t[28], ?0.954; P = .348; and 95% confidence interval, ?12.380 to 4.513).Discussion
In contrast to the findings of previous studies, our results suggest that a functional wrist orthosis, when supporting the joint in a ‘typical’ position, may not lead to an immediate improvement in hand function.Conclusions
Wearing a functional wrist orthosis did not lead to an immediate improvement in the ability of children with cerebral palsy or brain injury to grasp and release. Further research is needed combining upper limb orthoses with task-specific training and measuring outcomes over the medium to long term. 相似文献6.

Objectives
We describe the Canadian results of the Ascyrus Medical Dissection Stent (AMDS), a novel partially uncovered aortic arch hybrid graft implanted antegrade during hypothermic circulatory arrest to promote true lumen expansion and enhance aortic remodeling.Methods
From March 2017 to February 2018, 16 consecutive patients (66 ± 12 years; 38% female) presented with acute type A aortic dissections and underwent emergent surgical aortic repair with AMDS implantation. All patients presented with DeBakey I aortic dissection, with evidence of malperfusion in 50% (n = 8) of patients. All cases were performed under hypothermic circulatory arrest with an additional average duration for AMDS implantation time of 2.1 minutes.Results
All 16 device implantations were successful. Overall 30-day mortality was 6.3% (n = 1) and stroke occurred in 6.3% (n = 1) of cases. There was no incidence of device-related aortic injury or aortic arch branch vessel occlusion. During the follow-up period, 12 patients had completed at least 1 postoperative computed tomography scan. At initial follow-up computed tomography scan, complete or partial thrombosis, and remodeling of the aortic arch occurred in 91.7% of cases (n = 11/12) and in the proximal descending thoracic aorta, complete or partial thrombosis, and remodeling occurred in 91.7% (n = 11/12).Conclusions
Preliminary results suggest that the AMDS is a safe, feasible and reproducible adjunct to current surgical approaches for acute DeBakey I aortic dissection repair. Further, the AMDS manages malperfusion and promotes early positive remodeling in the aortic arch and distal dissected segments, with favorable FL closure rates at follow-up. Ongoing follow-up will provide additional insight into the long-term effects of the AMDS. 相似文献7.

Objective
Whereas open repair is the “gold standard” for most aortic arch diseases, a subgroup of patients might benefit from an endovascular approach. The introduction of branched stent grafts with dedicated design to address the challenges of the ascending aorta and the aortic arch has opened an entirely new area of treatment for these patients. We investigated the early outcomes of branched thoracic endovascular aortic repair (b-TEVAR) in various types of disease of the aortic arch.Methods
A retrospective analysis was conducted of prospectively collected data from a single center of all consecutive patients treated with b-TEVAR. The indication for elective endovascular repair was consented in an interdisciplinary case conference. All patients were treated with a custom-made inner branched arch endograft with two internal branches (Cook Medical, Bloomington, Ind) and left-sided carotid-subclavian bypass. Study end points were technical success, 30-day mortality, and complications as well as late complications and reinterventions.Results
Between 2012 and 2017, there were 54 patients (38 male; median age, 71 years) treated with diseases of the aortic arch. Indications for therapy involved degenerative aortic arch or proximal descending aortic aneurysms requiring arch repair (n = 24), dissection with or without false lumen aneurysms (n = 26), and penetrating aortic ulcers (n = 4). Forty-three cases (80%) were performed electively and 11 urgently for contained ruptures (n = 3) or symptomatic aneurysms (n = 8) with endografts already available for the patient or with grafts of other patients with similar anatomy. Technical success was achieved in 53 cases (98%). The 30-day mortality and major stroke incidence were 5.5% (3/54) and 5.5% (3/54), respectively; in-hospital mortality was 7.4% (n = 4), and minor strokes (including asymptomatic new cerebral lesions) occurred in 5.5% (n = 3). There were two cases of transient spinal cord ischemia with complete recovery and one of paraplegia. No retrograde type A dissections or cardiac injuries were observed. Three early stent graft-related reinterventions were necessary to correct proximal endograft kinking with type IA endoleak in one patient, a bridging stent graft stenosis in another patient, and false lumen persistent perfusion from dissected supra-aortic vessels in the last patient. Mean in-hospital stay was 14 ± 8 days. During a mean follow-up of 12 ± 9 months, three nonaorta-related deaths and one aorta-related death distal to the arch repair were observed.Conclusions
Treatment of aortic arch diseases with b-TEVAR is feasible and safe with acceptable mortality and stroke rates. 相似文献8.

Study Design
A within-subject research design was used in this study. The difference of the range of motion (ROM) with and without ulnar nerve block was analyzed.Introduction
For the clinical evaluation of the functional effects of ulnar nerve palsy at the hand the relevance of clinical tests is in discussion.Purpose of the Study
The aim of the study was to evaluate the predictive value of 2 clinical tests for a simulated ulnar nerve lesion by motion analysis with a sensor glove.Methods
In 28 healthy subjects, dynamic measurements of the finger joints were performed by a sensor glove with and without ulnar nerve block at the wrist. In the 0° metacarpophalangeal (MCP) stabilization test, the subjects were asked to stabilize the MCP joints actively in 0° while moving the interphalangeal joints, whereas at the 90° MCP stabilization test, the subjects stabilized the MCP joints actively in the 90° position.Results
In the 0° MCP stabilization test, no remarkable changes of the ROM were found at the MCP joints; at the proximal interphalangeal joints 2-5, the ROM decreased with ulnar nerve block, significantly at the index, middle, and ring fingers (P < .05). In the 90° MCP stabilization test, the average ROM of the MCP joints 2-5 significantly increased with ulnar nerve block (P < .05), whereas at the PIP joints, the average ROM decreased (P < .05).Discussion
The 90° MCP stabilization test had a high predictive value for the discrimination between healthy subjects and subjects with a simulated peripheral ulnar nerve lesion.Conclusions
The results could be relevant for the determination of the functional effect of ulnar nerve palsy and the quantification of clawing in hand rehabilitation.Level of Evidence

Objective
Excellent outcomes have been established for elective aortic root replacement (ARR). It is less clear whether extending the repair into the proximal aortic arch with hypothermic circulatory arrest increases risk. We examined the early outcomes of elective, primary ARR, with and without hemiarch replacement, in patients without previous cardiac surgery.Methods
Over a 4-year period, 140 non-redo patients (median age, 54 years) underwent elective, primary ARR for root aneurysms; 119 patients (85%) had hemiarch replacement, and 21 (15%) had only ascending aortic replacement. Valve-sparing ARR was performed in 41 cases (29.3%) and valve-replacing ARR in 99 (70.7%). Moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest and antegrade cerebral perfusion were used in 118 (99%) hemiarch repairs.Results
There were no operative deaths or permanent strokes. Complications included temporary renal dialysis (n = 1; 4.8%), transient neurologic deficit (n = 2; 9.5%), and tracheostomy (n = 2; 9.5%) after ascending aortic repair and bleeding requiring reoperation (n = 4; 3.4%), pericardial effusion requiring drainage (n = 9; 7.6%), and tracheostomy (n = 2; 1.7%) after hemiarch replacement. No stroke was observed in the hemiarch group (P = .022; univariate analysis). The extent of the repair into the proximal arch did not appear to be associated with any adverse effect.Conclusions
In non-redo patients, elective primary ARR has excellent early outcomes, regardless of whether repair extends into the proximal arch. Additional elective hemiarch replacement with moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest and antegrade cerebral perfusion has a low risk of neurologic complications and should be performed if necessary. Long-term data are needed to compare the rates of reintervention in the aortic arch in patients with or without proximal arch replacement. 相似文献10.

Introduction
We aimed to evaluate if ex vivo machine perfusion could minimize the negative impact of cold ischemia on those renal grafts obtained from controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD).Material and methods
Prospective observational paired study of kidney transplants from cDCD performed in our center. The kidney from each pair preserved on ice was transplanted first within the first few hours following procurement, while the contralateral kidney was machine-perfused with a LifePort device (Organ Recovery Systems, Brussels, Belgium) and transplanted the following day.Results
A total of 12 cDCDs were included. No differences were observed in delayed graft dysfunction or graft survival between the 2 groups.Conclusion
The use of ex vivo perfusion devices is simple and they do not require any large infrastructural or high economic investments, considering the fact that it allows a better selection of recipients and viable organs no longer need to be discarded because of prolonged warm ischemia times. 相似文献11.

Introduction
Religious factors have conditioned the attitude toward organ donation and transplantation (ODT) since the beginning of transplantation, despite the fact that most religions are in favor of transplantation.Objective
To assess the impact of religious beliefs of medical students on their attitude toward ODT.Method
Population under study: Medical students in Spanish universities. Study sample: Stratified by geographical area and academic course. Assessment instrument: Attitude ODT questionnaire PCID-DTO-Ríos, anonymous and self-administered.Results
Of all students, 42% (n = 3907) declare themselves atheists or agnostics. The remaining 58% (n = 5368) declare themselves to be religious, the majority being Catholic (55%, n = 5102). Of the rest, 0.2% are Muslims (n = 8), 0.1% Protestants (n = 1), and the remaining 2.7% (n = 257) indicate other religious doctrines but do not want to specify it. Regarding their attitude toward ODT, those who consider themselves atheists or agnostics have a more favorable attitude than those who consider themselves religious (84% versus 76%; P < .001). Among those who follow some kind of religion, Catholics are more in favor of ODT than non-Catholics (77% vs 64%, P < .001). Note that among the religious, only 57% (n = 3050) know which religion is in favor of transplantation, while 22% (n = 1,152) consider that it has not been pronounced on the matter, 13% (n = 723) think the religion is against donation, and the remaining 8% (n = 443) do not know.Conclusion
The religion professed by medical students conditions their attitude toward donation, with the atheists and agnostics being more in favor of donation. 相似文献12.

Objective
Conventional procedures for partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) to the superior vena cava (SVC) still have serious complications, such as late SVC and/or pulmonary venous obstruction and supraventricular arrhythmia. We aimed to introduce our newly developed surgical technique with minimum right atriotomy and double-barreled arrangement of systemic and pulmonary venous channels (double-decker technique).Methods
From 1998 to 2018, 21 consecutive patients with PAPVR to the SVC underwent this new procedure. The patients' median age and body weight were 4.4 years and 16.5 kg, respectively. Two female patients underwent lateral thoracotomy. Postoperative hemodynamics of both venous channels were assessed using time-resolved 3-dimensional magnetic resonance phase contrast imaging in 6 patients.Results
The median follow-up period was 11.0 years. There was no early mortality and late death. No patient required reoperation and/or intervention. All patients maintained normal sinus rhythm, and supraventricular arrhythmia did not occur. The median blood flow velocity of the neo-SVC and neopulmonary venous channel was 0.40 and 0.30 m/s, respectively. Using time-resolved 3-dimensional magnetic resonance phase contrast imaging, the straight and nonrestrictive flow and low wall shear stress were visualized in both venous channels.Conclusions
Our newly developed double-decker technique is a useful alternative surgical procedure for PAPVR to the SVC. Late complications can be completely avoided using this method. Growth potential of both channels is also maintained. 相似文献13.

Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) decreases delayed graft function (DGF) and improves 1-year graft survival in expanded criteria donors (ECDs). Time of HMP could be associated with incidence of DGF.
Objective
To analyze functional outcomes of ECD grafts preserved totally (local grafts) or partially (imported grafts) with HMP.Materials and Methods
We analyzed prospectively collected data from a cohort of first ECD graft receptors, with a minimum follow-up of 6 months. A total of 119 imported and 74 local grafts were included. Local ECD kidneys were preserved with HMP after retrieval. Imported ECD kidneys were preserved with simple cold storage and HMP. Vascular thrombosis, acute rejection, DGF, 1-year glomerular filtration rate, and 1-year graft survival were assessed. Univariate and estimative multivariate logistic regression was applied for analysis of DGF. A Cox proportional hazards model was applied to estimate graft survival.Results
DGF occurred in 14 recipients of local grafts and in 33 recipients of imported grafts (28.0 vs 18.1%, P = .13); 1-year graft survival was better in the group of local grafts (80.3 vs 91.9%, P = .03). No differences in vascular thrombosis (5.9 vs 5.4%, P = .88), acute rejection (12.3 vs 9.8%, P = .91), or 1-year glomerular filtration rate (41.2 vs 40.5 mL/m/1.73m2, P = .87) were observed. In multivariate analysis, adjusted odds ratio for DGF was 1.20 (P = .79) and adjusted hazard ratio for graft survival was 1.93 (P =?.31).Conclusions
There is a trend that complete HMP reduces the risk of DGF and improves 1-year graft survival in ECD kidneys. 相似文献16.

Objectives
Improved survival after congenital heart surgery has led to interest in functional health status. We sought to identify factors associated with self-reported functional health status in adolescents and young adults with repaired interrupted aortic arch.Methods
Follow-up of survivors (aged 13-24 years) from a 1987 to 1997 inception cohort of neonates included completion of functional health status questionnaires (Child Health Questionnaire-CF87 [age <18 years, n = 51] or the Short Form [SF]-36 [age ≥18 years, n = 66]) and another about 22q11 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) features (n = 141). Factors associated with functional health status domains were determined using multivariable linear regression analysis.Results
Domain scores of respondents were significantly greater than norms in 2 of 9 Child Health Questionnaire-CF87 and 4 of 10 SF-36 domains and only lower in the physical functioning domain of the SF-36. Factors most commonly associated with lower scores included those suggestive of 22q11DS (low calcium levels, recurrent childhood infections, genetic testing/diagnosis, abnormal facial features, hearing deficits), the presence of self-reported behavioral and mental health problems, and a greater number of procedures. Factors explained between 10% and 70% of domain score variability (R2 = 0.10-0.70, adj-R2 = 0.09-0.66). Of note, morphology and repair type had a minor contribution.Conclusions
Morbidities associated with 22q11DS, psychosocial issues, and recurrent medical issues affect functional health status more than initial morphology and repair in this population. Nonetheless, these patients largely perceive themselves as better than their peers. This demonstrates the chronic nature of interrupted aortic arch and suggests the need for strategies to decrease reinterventions and for evaluation of mental health and genetic issues to manage associated deteriorations. 相似文献17.

Purpose
The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of the patients who underwent primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery with either hamstring autograft or freeze-dried tibialis anterior allograft, which performed by the same surgeon using the same fixation technique.Methods
In this retrospective study, patients who had primary ACL reconstruction using either four-strand hamstring autograft (FSH) or freeze-dried irradiated tibialis anterior allograft (FDT) between 2012 and 2015 were evaluated. Patients who were skeletally mature with a minimum follow-up of 24 months and who had no previous surgery from the affected knee were included; patients who had multiple ligament injuries or chondral lesions over Outerbridge grade 2 were excluded from the study. Patients were grouped according to the graft type used in ACL reconstruction. Tegner activity scale and Lysholm knee scoring scale were used to assess patients' activity levels and functional status preoperatively and at the final follow-up. KT-2000 arthrometer measurements were done at the final follow-up to evaluate anterior laxity.Results
There were 27 patients (mean age 27 ± 8.9 years) in the FSH group and 36 patients (mean age 27.1 ± 6.7 years) in the FDT group. The mean follow-up time was 38.2 ± 3.5 months for the FSH group and 41 ± 6.1 months for the FDT group. There were no statistically significant differences between the groups when preoperative and postoperative Tegner-Lysholm scores were compared (Tegner P = 0.583, 0.742; Lysholm P = 0.592, 0.249). The mean anteroposterior laxity and side-to-side differences measured by KT-2000 were 4.1 mm and 2.1 mm for the FSH group, respectively; 4.2 mm and 2.2 mm for the FDT group, respectively. There was not a statistically significant difference (P = 0.745, 0.562 respectively).Conclusions
Primary ACL reconstruction with a single loop freeze-dried irradiated tibialis anterior allograft revealed comparable results with four-strand hamstring autograft in non-athlete patients.Level of evidence

Purpose
Creating a trough on the anterior glenoid rim is one of the methods used for arthroscopic Bankart repair with suture anchors. The purpose of this study was to analyze clinical and radiological outcomes of arthroscopic Bankart repair with suture anchors; to compare between the outcomes of surgical procedures with and without trough.Methods
Clinical and radiological outcomes were evaluated for 116 patients who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair at our institute from 2005 to 2011. The mean follow-up was 5.2 years (range, 2–8.8 years). All data were divided into trough group (n = 62) and non-trough group (n = 71). Clinical and functional outcomes were assessed pre- and postoperatively as range of motion (ROM), pain on the visual analog scale (p-VAS), function on the visual analog scale (f-VAS), and Rowe score. Radiological outcomes were also evaluated.Results
The overall postoperative clinical and functional outcomes improved significantly (P < .001). A total of 8 patients (6.8%) showed recurrent instability. Radiologic findings showed mild arthritis in 27 cases (23.1%), moderate arthritis in 6 cases (5.1%), and no severe arthritis. 32 patients showed anterior apprehension after surgery, and 22 out of those 32 patients were from non-trough group. However, no significant difference between the trough and non-trough groups was found with respect to clinical and functional outcomes (P > .05).Conclusion
The additional procedure of creating a trough did not improve clinical outcomes in terms of frank dislocation; however, at the final follow-up, patients with the trough showed less anterior apprehension. Overall, arthroscopic Bankart repair using suture anchors had relatively good clinical outcome, with a redislocation rate of 6.8%.Level of evidence
