Median sternotomy, currently the standard incision in open heart procedures, is rarely complicated by wound infection, but when present, it is associated with a high morbidity and mortality. Adequate treatment can be provided by means of transposition of the pectoralis major muscle. After thorough sternal wound debridement the muscle, based on the thoraco-acromial pedicle, is transposed into the defect. From September 1986 until December 1992 14 patients (mean age 67 years) with sternal infection were treated using this technique. Mean hospital stay after operation was 23 days; mean follow-up was 24 months. In 10 patients (72%) a successful treatment, i.e. a permanently cured infection, was achieved. Three patients (21%) developed a recurrence; one of them died during follow-up as a consequence of cardiac failure, the other two underwent reoperation and healing occurred at a later stage. In one patient (who died of a unknown cause 2 months after muscle transposition) the result was classified as unknown. In conclusion, transposition of the pectoralis major muscle is an adequate treatment for severe sternal infections. In comparison with conservative methods, mortality and morbidity can be reduced and hospital stay can be shortened. 相似文献

Residual upper pleural spaces after subtotal pulmonary resection continues to pose great challenge for the thoracic surgeon. Although not all residual spaces deserve surgical attention, only in special situation (empyema with or without bronchopleural fistula). It increases morbidity, mortality, hospital stays, and costs. Transposition of extrathoracic muscle flaps has been the cornerstone of treatment of this complication. Sometimes use of latissimus or serratus muscle might have been compromised by the incision for the original operation. In this situation the pectoralis major muscle flap (PMF) can be used successfully to reach and obliterate upper residual pleural space by anterior approach. The technique has never been specifically described before in the literature. We describe our technique for mobilization of PMF by anterior approach to obliterate residual upper space after major pulmonary resections. 相似文献

Infected median sternotomy represents a major complication of cardiac surgery, with significant morbidity and mortality. The treatment of choice is immediate drainage and closure over suction irrigation catheters. However, when this conservative approach fails or radical debridement makes primary closure impossible, muscle flap closure is indicated. This form of reconstruction facilitates the obliteration of large mediastinal wounds; prevents spreading of infection on the heart, suture lines, grafts, or prosthetic material; and significantly decreases morbidity and mortality. We performed muscle flap closure in 11 consecutive patients in whom conservative treatment of infected median sternotomy wounds failed. All patients required closure with at least two muscle flaps or omentum for the complete obliteration of the mediastinal wounds. There was one postoperative death in our series due to acute heart failure. There were two superficial skin losses requiring skin grafting and one persistent draining sinus after reconstruction. Based on our experience and that of others, we conclude that muscle flap reconstruction should be considered as an important technique for the reconstruction of infected median sternotomy wounds. 相似文献

A case of post-sternotomy mediastinitis due to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus after aortocoronary bypass procedure was treated with debridement, open clean packing, and delayed wound closure by the technique of pectoral muscle flap mobilization. The cosmetic and functional results were excellent. This technique seems to be a very effective method of treatment for the serious complication of deep sternal infection with mediastinitis after cardiac operation. 相似文献

The sequence of adverse events initiated by a sternal wound infection today can typically be ameliorated by interposing a vascularized flap. The pectoralis major muscle due to its propinquity has universally been the workhorse flap for minimizing this dilemma, with our experience over the past 25 years being no exception as 123 of 156 patients so inflicted required this donor site in some format. However, a rectus abdominis muscle had to be used in combination in 22 patients, particularly for coverage of the xiphoid region, and this can add significant morbidity in an already compromised patient population. This conundrum provided the impetus starting in 2003 for the development of a pectoralis major muscle extended island flap, whereby skeletonizing its vascular pedicle back to near the origin of the thoracoacromial axis, the desired extended reach can be obtained. Since that time, 18 pectoralis major muscle extended island flaps have been successfully used, with only a single wound complication still requiring use of a rectus abdominis muscle flap. This has proven to be a reliable option that alone allows complete closure of the median sternotomy wound while avoiding the need for combined flaps with preservation of the rectus abdominis muscle. 相似文献

Extensive experience with infected sternotomy wounds treated by aggressive debridement and immediate, laterally based pectoralis muscle flaps has shown this to be a reliable and effective treatment for a major complication previously associated with high morbidity and mortality. This is a plastic surgery operation that saves lives and health care dollars. 相似文献

Necrotising descending mediastinitis may rarely originate from Ludwig's angina, which is an infection of the submandibular space. The use of the bilateral pectoralis major muscle flap for the treatment of sternal wound dehiscence is common, but reports of the unilateral application of this flap are scarce. This study aims to report the use of the unilateral pectoralis major muscle flap for the treatment of sternotomy dehiscence in a patient with mediastinitis due to Ludwig's angina. A 21‐year‐old male patient underwent an exploratory cervicotomy and median sternotomy for drainage of a submandibular infection that extended to the anterior, retropharyngeal and mediastinal cervical spaces. The patient had dehiscence of the sternal wound, and the unilateral pectoralis major muscle flap was used for reconstruction of the defect. This flap was able to completely cover the area of dehiscence of the sternotomy, and the patient presented a good postoperative evolution, without complications. The reconstruction technique using the unilateral pectoralis major muscle flap was considered a good option for the treatment of sternotomy dehiscence. It is an adjuvant method in the treatment of infections such as mediastinitis and osteomyelitis of the sternum secondary to Ludwig's angina, allowing a stable coverage of the sternum. 相似文献

We have recently added to our regimen a unilateral rectus abdominis muscle flap to cover the lower sternum and adjacent soft
tissues, in addition to bilateral pectoralis major myocutaneous advancement flaps for closure of infected sternal wounds.
Twenty patients underwent this procedure for closure of infected sternal wounds after initial débridement at our institutions.
There were no intraoperative deaths in this series, but three patients died of other medical conditions. Two patients developed
hematomas and one developed recurrent sternal wound infection after surgery; two had superficial wound infections and five
had minor wound problems (i.e., skin edge necrosis). All surviving patients (17/20, 85%) had healed sternal wounds with normal
chest contour and there were no instances of flap necrosis, sternal wound dehiscence, or abdominal wall hernia during the
follow-up (18–60 months). Based upon our experience, we recommend a unilateral rectus abdominis muscle flap in addition to
bilateral pectoralis major myocutaneous advancement flaps for selected patients with infected sternal wounds. This approach
provides reliable soft tissue coverage with acceptable morbidity and mortality in this high-risk patient population.

The ideal standard of treatment of the infected sternotomy wound is early recognition, adequate debridement and repair with well vascularised tissue. We describe a new technique The Waist Coat Flap, which adheres to these principles, but does not require muscle or omentum and does not compromise their future use, if required. 相似文献

Resection of the clavicular head and clavicular-manubrial junction is required in cases of chronic osteomyelitis or tumor. This article describes a technique for soft tissue coverage in an infected or irradiated area after resection using a split pectoralis major rotational muscle flap. 相似文献
