Surgical closure of an Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) and transcatheter closure of ostium secundum ASD is an established form of therapy in selected patients. Only a few cases have been reported in literature when transcatheter closure of ASD was achieved successfully in a patient with residual postsurgical ASD. It is less invasive, avoids thoracotomy, requires short hospital stay, yet, hemodynamic benefits, similar to surgery, can be achieved. It may also be considered the procedure of first choice in postsurgical residual atrial septal defect. Present case report describes the technique in a 14 years old girl with residual ostium secundum ASD.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: The influence of perioperative characteristics on postoperative outcome has been obscure in the adult patients with atrial septal defect (ASD). This study was designed to investigate whether perioperative patient profiles and complications will contribute to postoperative outcome following surgical closure of ASD in adult patients. METHODS: Subjects were 39 (17 male and 22 female) ASD patients, aged 16 to 69 years (mean 53 +/- 15) who were scheduled for surgical repair of isolated secundum ASD between 1999 to 2003. All patients were evaluated for circulatory characteristics using echocardiography and cardiac catheterization. Postoperative complications were evaluated by examining duration of postoperative oxygen requirement, postoperative duration until first ambulation, intubation and hospital stay after surgery. RESULTS: In elderly group (over 50 years of age), preoperative %FEV1.0, preoperative oxygen index and creatinine clearance were lower compared with those of younger group (under 50 years of age) (P=0.0309, P= 0.0341 and P= 0.0112, respectively). Moreover, elderly group showed longer duration of oxygen requirement compared with younger group (3 +/- 5 days and 2 +/- 1 days; P=0.0273). Age and change of the left ventricular diastolic diameter (LVDd) affected the incidence of postoperative arrhythmia (P=0.0195 and P=0.0204). Preoperative oxygen index and %VC affected long term intubation (P=0.0201 and P=0.0363). TAP, smoking and pulmonary hypertension affected long term oxygen supply (P=0.0070, 0.0349 and 0.0355). Only %VC affected postoperative duration until first ambulation (P = 0.0219). Delirium and postoperative oxygen index affected the length of hospitalization (P=0.0072 and 0.0188). CONCLUSIONS: Respiratory function was important in short-term outcomes in the patients with ASD. In addition, preoperative small LVDd was a useful predictor for postoperative atrial fibrillation.  相似文献

Safety and efficacy of minimally invasive atrial septal defect closure   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
BACKGROUND: Atrial septal defects (ASDs) have been surgically closed with low mortality utilizing the conventional sternotomy approach (CSA). The technical ease of ASD closure has triggered interest in minimally invasive closure (MIC) to obviate the morbidity associated with sternotomy. Our study assesses the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive ASD closure. METHODS: Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data were collected on 68 patients (39 CSA, 29 MIC) who underwent ASD closure from January 1997 to August 2002. Using univariate analysis of 17 preoperative risk factors there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups. RESULTS: MIC resulted in equivalent success rates in ASD closures, with similar morbidity, no mortality, and a significant difference in postoperative length of stay (3.93 +/- 1.6 days versus 5.36 +/- 2.51 days, p = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS: In experienced hands, MIC is an excellent alternative to CSA in ASD closure.  相似文献

Background Conventional approach of atrial septal defect (ASD) closure with cardio pulmonary bypass using mid sternotomy, minimally invasive or endoscopic technique is time tested. We decided to use custom made device with direct minimally invasive approach without cardio pulmonary bypass. Percutaneous transfemoral route using custom made device is a well established procedure performed by interventional cardiologist with occasional trauma and vessels. Method We performed the procedure in 3 patients of secundum ASD deemed adequate for device closure. We used a mini Right anterior thoracotomy approach using a double umbrella device which was implanted through direct Right Atrial puncture. Results In two patients we were successful in deploying the device. The proedure lasted 30 minutes with small infra Mammary scar and the post operative period was uneventful. In the third case where our attempt at surgical device closure failed the inferior margin was only one mm. The optimal size device kept slipping into the right atrium when the guide-wire was tugged after final deployment. The placement of an oversize device distorted the mitral valve, may causing regurgitation. Conclusion We think that this is a simple and safe technique of secundum ASD closure without cardio pulmonary bypass.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to report our short and mid-term results of intraoperative device closure (IODC) in large secundum atrial septal defects (ASD), to evaluate its safety and to determine the impact of 'short' rim on the results. METHODS: Sixty-eight patients with an ASD underwent IODC through a right minithoracotomy. Patients were divided into two groups: 37 patients in group I with one short rim (< or =5 mm) and 31 in group II with sufficient rims. A 2.5-3 cm parasternal incision was made in the right third or fourth intercostal space. A specially designed plastic sheath loaded with the device was inserted through the purse-string sutures placed on the right atrium. Under transesophageal echocardiographic guidance, it was advanced through the ASD into the left atrium and the device was deployed in place. RESULTS: The procedure was successful in all patients. The maximum diameter of the ASD ranged from 20 to 37 mm (mean 25+/-5 mm). There were 16 patients with the diameter of ASD more than 30 mm. The mean size of implanted devices was 29+/-4mm. Redeployment with larger device occurred in seven patients in group I and three in group II (p>0.05). Intracardiac manipulation time was 22+/-10 min in group I and 16+/-11 min in group II (p<0.01). The total occlusion rate was 84% immediately after operation, 97% at 3 months, 98% at 1 year, and 100% at 2-, 3-, 4-year follow-up. There were no other late complications during the follow-up period of 3-63 months (mean 27+/-18 months). CONCLUSIONS: IODC is a safe and feasible technique in closing large ASDs. It has the advantages of cost savings, cosmetic results, and less trauma. Early and mid-term results are encouraging. In patients with ASD of a short rim, a larger device is recommended which does not influence the success rate of IODC.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Totally endoscopic procedures have been introduced into cardiac surgery with the application of telemanipulating robotic systems. We report 6 cases of closed-chest atrial septal defect (ASD) closure using a robotic device. METHODS: After deflating the right lung, the endoscopic camera and two robotic arms were inserted into the right hemithorax through 8-mm ports. An accessory port was placed for blood suction and for introduction of ancillary endoscopic instruments. After femoral-femoral cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), aortic occlusion, and cardioplegia delivery, the intracardiac correction was carried out in 5 patients with an ostium secundum ASD and in 1 patient with a patent foramen ovale (PFO) and atrial septal aneurysm (ASA). The ASDs were closed with a continuous braided polyester suture. The PFO closure with septal aneurysm plication was carried out with interrupted stiches. RESULTS: Mean CPB and cross-clamp times were 106 +/- 22 and 67 +/- 13 minutes, respectively. Extubation was carried out within the seventh postoperative hour. All patients returned to normal function within the first postoperative week. CONCLUSIONS: Totally endoscopic ASD closure can be carried out safely using robotic techniques with rapid postoperative recovery and an excellent cosmetic result.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Ambulatory surgery, where the processes of admission, surgery and discharge are completed within 24h, is an increasingly important part of many surgical specialties. The aim of this study was to evaluate suitability of ambulatory approach for low-risk open-heart procedures. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 48 patients who had undergone atrial septal defect (ASD) closure at our centre (from October 2005 through November 2006) suggested that this open-heart procedure was optimally suited for treatment with ambulatory approach. Based on this, 15 patients with ostium secundum ASD underwent surgical closure as ambulatory patients, with targeted discharge within 24h of admission. Twenty patients receiving conventional surgery in the other two units of the department served as the control group. RESULTS: Fourteen of the 15 patients were successfully discharged within 24h of admission. One patient remained in the hospital for excess incision site pain and was discharged on the 2nd postoperative day. Mean hospital stay for the entire cohort of 15 patients was 1583+/-669 min, whereas the mean hospital stay in the control group was 9.8 days. Follow-up was 100% complete at 30 days. There were no in-hospital or out-of-hospital complications in either group. No patient was readmitted at our centre or elsewhere for any complication arising from the procedure. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that sufficient advancement in cardiac surgery has occurred to permit low-risk open-heart procedures (with an expected uneventful postoperative course) to be performed on an ambulatory basis. Once such a practice is firmly established, expanding its horizon may provide considerable improvement in patient satisfaction, more patient turnover per bed, and significant financial savings.  相似文献

To investigate the role of anaesthetic management in early extubation of the trachea in children after closure of a secundum-type atrial septal defect (ASD II), a retrospective chart review for a two-year period was performed. We identified 36 children who underwent surgical repair of an isolated ASD II. In 19 children (53%) the tracheas were extubated in the operating room immediately after surgery and in 17 patients (47%) the tracheas remained intubated and the lungs were ventilated in the Intensive Care Unit. There was no difference in age (69.5 +/- 33.8 vs 72.9 +/- 45.0 mo) or weight (19.5 +/- 8.1 versus 20.5 +/- 12.7 kg) between the two groups (mean +/- SD). Children in the extubated group had a shorter duration of cardiopulmonary bypass (43.4 +/- 7.8 min) than those remaining intubated (31.7 +/- 12.7 min) (P < 0.05). The children whose tracheas were extubated early received a lower perioperative fentanyl dose (5.9 +/- 6.4 micrograms.kg-1) than those remaining intubated (35.1 +/- 8.5 micrograms.kg-1). Those children in the extubated group had a lower hourly requirement for morphine by infusion (13.6 +/- 5.7 vs 18.2 +/- 5.4 micrograms.kg-1.hr-1) and a shorter stay (20.5 +/- 3.7 versus 29.0 +/- 11.2 hr) in the Intensive Care Unit. Re-intubation of the trachea was not required in any of the children and no deaths occurred. Early extubation after ASD II repair is safe and, given the results of this study, may offer certain advantages over prolonged intubation and ventilation in these children.  相似文献

AIM: Repair of atrial septal defect (ASD) via minimal access has been the preferred method to improve cosmesis and fast rehabilitation. A 2-stage single venous cannula introduced via the femoral route allows better vision of the surgical field and improves surgical acts through a limited incision. METHODS: From February 1999 to December 2001 a minithoracotomy approach was used for closure of secundum type ASD by using single bicaval venous cannula in 17 adult patients. A 6 to 7 cm anterior minithoracotomy (submammary) approach with femoral arterial and 2-stage single venous cannula were utilized. Defects were closed primarily by running suture in 14 and with a patch in 3 patients. RESULTS: Calculated flow levels were maintained with a single venous cannula without assisted venous drainage in all patients. The postoperative course was uneventful in all patients except 1 who required revision for bleeding which was done through the same incision. Extension of the thoracotomy or shifting to the classic sternotomy was never required. CONCLUSION: Single venous bicaval cannula allows efficient drainage of both vena cavae and improves the surgical vision and manipulation through the right minithoracotomy. With this technique, repair of ASD can be done safely with good cosmesis.  相似文献

We were faced with a difficult question: how to treat a high-risk patient with severe aortic valve stenosis and a secundum atrial septal defect (ASD II). An 85-year-old woman with progressive dyspnea and pedal edema and in New York Heart Association class IV was treated with concomitant transapical aortic valve implantation and transcatheter closure of the ASD II. The combined procedure and postoperative course were completely uneventful. At 2 years after the clinical follow-up, the patient is doing well. This case report demonstrates, for the first time, the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of simultaneous application of 2 transcatheter methods--aortic valve implantation and closure of an ASD II. As surgeons, we should consider percutaneous treatment of combined structural heart disease in patients at high risk for conventional surgery.  相似文献

OBJECTIVES: Closure of isolated secundum atrial septal defect is generally recommended at the age of 4 to 5 years. However, there are children with isolated secundum atrial septal defect in whom early closure should be performed. We aimed to assess the underlying conditions that led to earlier closure in this special patient group and to analyze the outcome. METHODS AND RESULTS: From January 1990 through August 2002, 24 infants with isolated secundum atrial septal defect underwent surgical closure within the first year of life. All children were symptomatic. Signs of pulmonary hyperperfusion, such as tachydyspnea, failure to thrive, recurrent respiratory infections, or heart failure, were present. Four infants required artificial ventilation. Ten patients had additional problems, such as prematurity with chronic lung disease, hepato-omphalocele and congenital diaphragmatic hernia, which were present in 1 patient each. Eleven patients had defined dysmorphic syndromes. All but 1 infant underwent preoperative invasive hemodynamic evaluation. Thirteen patients had pulmonary hypertension preoperatively. The follow-up time was 46 +/- 33 months (range, 4-125 months). At follow-up, pulmonary artery pressure proved to be normal in 11 of the 13 children who had pulmonary hypertension previously. One patient died of persistent pulmonary hypertension. Clinical performance, growth, and development improved in nearly all patients. All ventilator-dependent children could be weaned shortly after atrial septal defect closure. CONCLUSIONS: If lungs are compromised, even a minor left-to-right shunt might be poorly tolerated in infancy. In these children early surgical closure of an isolated secundum atrial septal defect should be performed to support thrive and growth and to prevent the onset of irreversible changes of the pulmonary vasculature.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: The treatment of choice for acute cholecystitis is cholecystectomy. However, percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) is an alternative treatment in patients who are at high risk for urgent surgery. This study reviews our experience of PC for treatment of acute cholecystitis in a surgeon-initiated interventional program. METHODS: Clinical records of all high-risk patients who underwent PC placement by surgeons (group A; n = 22) for acute cholecystitis were reviewed. Treatment outcomes were compared with patients who underwent PC by interventional radiologists (group B; n = 26). RESULTS: Similar technical success, procedural complication, or treatment outcome were noted between the two groups. Seven patients (32%) in group A and 9 patients (35%) in group B underwent delayed elective cholecystectomy surgery. The time elapsed between the diagnosis to PC placement in groups A and B was 6.6 +/- 3.5 hours and 18.5 +/- 4.3 hours, respectively (P < .02). CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasound-guided PC is a safe and effective treatment for acute cholecystitis in high-risk surgical patients. Surgeons with endovascular skills can obtain clinical competence in this catheter-based procedure, which provides an added armamentarium in surgical biliary disease management.  相似文献

Background: Closure of ostium secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) vis median sternotomy (MS) is a simple procedure for most cardiac surgeons. Minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) has recently been applied in the management of intracardiac lesions. Methods: We report our experience in surgical closure of isolated ASD via MICS in 60 patients and via MS in 58 patients. There was no difference between these two groups in gender, age, body weight, ratio of systemic to pulmonary blood flow, and pulmonary arterial pressure. Results: The duration of cardiopulmonary bypass was significantly longer in the MICS group than in the MS group [27 to 126 min (42 ± 12) and 14 to 158 min (27 ± 11), respectively; (p < 0.001]. However, the length of incision, incidence of temporary pacemaker wire insertion rate, duration of endotracheal intubation, timing of oral intake, postoperative day drainage amount, incidence of parenteral analgesic injection, postoperative length of stay, and return to normal activity interval were significant shorter and lower in patients of the MICS group than in those of the MS group. All the patients recovered rapidly from the surgery. Follow-up was complete in all patients, with no late complications and no residual shunt. Conclusion: Our results suggest that MICS is a good option for surgical closure of ASD. Received: 4 June 1997/Accepted: 29 October 1997  相似文献

Methods A retrospective analysis of all patients undergoing surgical closure of an isolated secundum atrial septal defect, at the Postgraduate Institute, Chandigarh between January 1974 and June 2000 was performed. 740 patients were divided into two groups. Group I. Included 435 patients under 20 yrs of age (223 male), 315 (72%) were asymptomatic, 265(61%) were in sinus rhythm. Group II. included 305 patients between 21 and 53 years (96 males), 27 patients (9%) were asymptomatic, 102(33%) were in sinus rhythm. Cardiopulmonary bypass with fibrillatory arrest and/or cold blood cardioplegia were used. In group I 291 patients (67%0 and in group II 64 patients (54%) underwent direct closure of the defect. In the remaining a patch was used for closure. Results There was 1 early death in group I (0.2%) and four in group II (1.3%) 96% of symptomatic patients in group I and 87% of patients in group II were improved. There were no instances of residual shunt. Follow up ranged from 6 months to 25 years (mean 8.3 yrs) and was 89% complete. Conclusions Closure of isolated secundum ASD is best performed before the patient attains adulthood.  相似文献

OBJECTIVES: Detachment of the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve from the annulus (TVD) has been used to improve visualization of ventricular septal defects (VSDs), but may be associated with increased operative time, heart block, and the development of tricuspid regurgitation (TR). METHODS: Patients undergoing VSD closure between 1/1/96 and 31/12/99 were retrospectively reviewed. Follow-up was obtained from the patients' cardiologists. RESULTS: Transatrial VSD closure was performed in 172 patients with TVD in 36 (21%) at the surgeon's discretion. The leaflet incision was repaired with a separate suture (22) or with the VSD patch suture (14). Additional procedures including arch augmentation, closure of atrial septal defects, and closure of additional VSDs were performed in 93 (68%) non-TVD patients and 20 (56%) TVD patients. The median age was 6.2 months (range 1 day to 46 years) and the median weight was 5.9 kg (range 1.5-71.5 kg). Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time was 64+/-24 min and cross-clamp time was 34+/-16 min. One hospital death occurred in an infant with tracheal stenosis. No child in either group developed complete heart block. The median duration of postoperative stay was 4 days (range 2-49 days). There were no differences in CPB time, cross-clamp time or postoperative stay between the TVD and non-TVD groups (P>0.1 for all). At a mean follow-up of 17+/-15 months, there have been two late deaths unrelated to cardiac disease. No child in the TVD group required reoperation for residual VSD, compared to three in the non-TVD group. No child in the TVD group has greater than mild TR, but six in the non-TVD group have greater than mild TR. No child in either group has undergone reoperation for TR. CONCLUSIONS: TVD is a safe, effective technique to improve visualization of VSD and is not associated with heart block, increased operative time, or TR. TVD may result in improved preservation of tricuspid valve architecture and decrease the incidence of significant postoperative TR.  相似文献
