It is frequent to see pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with mitral stenosis (MS) secondary to increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), data about the effect of PVR on the results of percutaneous balloon mitral valvotomy (PBMV) are insufficient. To detect the role of PVR in predicting residual PH immediately after PBMV. This prospective study comprised 49 consecutive patients with moderate to severe MS who were investigated pre and within 48 h post a successful PBMV for the first time. Echocardiography was used to assess the mitral valve area (MVA), mean transmitral pressure gradient (MPG), mitral valve resistance (MVR), right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) and PVR. Patients were classified into two groups according to the pre PVR (≥?1.6 WU as group I and < 1.6 as group II). At baseline compared to group II (32 patients), Group I (17 patients) had higher MPG (13.6?±?5.2 vs. 11.7?±?3.7 mmHg, P?<?0.05), RVSP (45.6 vs. 37.9 mmHg, P?<?0.001) and PVR (2.2?±?0.1 vs. 1.2?±?0.1WU, P?<?0.001) with no significant difference regarding age, gender, MVS, MVA and MVR. Patients of group I had comparatively lower improvement immediate post procedural of RVSP and PVR with no significant difference in immediate post procedural improvement in NYHA classification, MVA, MPG and MVR. Basal PVR?>?1.8WU was proved to be a highly specific (91%), a good predictor (AUC 0.78) of persistent elevation of RVSP?>?50 mmHg post PMV. Pathological rise of PVR that associates MS had provided a strong and an independent predictor of persistent pulmonary hypertension post PBMV and by this aspect it could be used as a valuable tool as MVA and MPG to send patients earlier for PBMV even with less severe MS. PVR?>?1.81 WU could be used as a noninvasive parameter for predicting regression of PH immediately after PBMV. 相似文献

Esophageal perforation is a serious life threatening injury that may occur during inadvertent esophageal intubation. We report two cases of iatrogenic esophageal perforation after attempted endotracheal intubation. Our experience confirms that early diagnosis (as in the first case) is associated with a more favorable outcome. Therefore, a high index of suspicion is required for early diagnosis of this complication because the symptoms are often nonspecific and may be delayed. 相似文献

Venovenous bypass has improved patient survival and decreased morbidity and mortality in the field of orthotopic liver transplantation. The standard at many transplant centers is the use of the internal jugular percutaneous venovenous bypass cannulae (PVVBC) for venous return to the patient. Placement of these large (18F) PVVBC may lead to several complications and requires confirmation before use. Use of transesophageal echocardiography, an effective and rapid method to guide placement of the PVVBC and minimize potential complications associated with insertion of the device, is described. 相似文献

Use of piggyback technique (PB) and elimination of venovenous bypass (VVB) have been advocated in adult liver transplantation (LT). However, individual contribution of these two modifications on clinical outcomes has not been fully investigated. We performed a retrospective review of 426 LTs within a 3‐year period, when three different surgical techniques were employed per the surgeons’ preference: retrohepatic caval resection with VVB (RCR + VVB) in 104 patients, PB with VVB (PB + VVB) in 148, and PB without VVB (PB‐Only) in 174. The primary outcomes were intraoperative blood transfusion and the patient and graft survivals. Demographic profiles were similar, except younger recipient age in RCR + VVB and fewer number of grafts with cold ischemic time over 16 h in PB‐Only. PB‐Only required lesser intraoperative red blood cells (P = 0.006), fresh frozen plasma (P = 0.005), and cell saver return (P = 0.007); had less incidence of acute renal failure (P = 0.001), better patient survival (P = 0.039), and graft survival (P = 0.003). The benefits of PB + VVB were only found in shortened total surgical time (P = 0.0001) and warm ischemic time (P = 0.0001), and less incidence of acute renal failure (P = 0.001) than RCR + VVB. PB‐Only method seemed to provide the best clinical outcome. The benefit of PB was not fully achieved when it was used with VVB. 相似文献

Purpose
Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a rare congenital vascular abnormality found in 0.3% of the general population. We report herein a rare complication involving the accidental insertion of a large bore cannula into the PLSVC during liver transplantation (LT).Clinical features
A 63-yr-old man with primary sclerosing cholangitis presented for LT. Given the existence of a tunnelled dialysis catheter in the right internal jugular vein (IJV) and a triple lumen catheter via the left IJV, insertion of an 18 French cannula for venovenous bypass (VVB) was performed via the left IJV using the existing triple lumen cannula as a conduit for a guidewire. Upon initiation of VVB, profound systemic hypotension occurred, and liver transplantation was completed without the further use of VVB. A chest x-ray confirmed a malposition of the VVB cannula with a large left hemothorax. A mini-sternotomy was performed for removal of the VVB cannula, which was found to be inserted in the PLSVC. Retrospectively, the presence of PLSVC was not anticipated due to a normal superior vena cava and a left innominate vein, as revealed by the course of a pre-existing left internal jugular vein triple lumen catheter on a preoperative chest x-ray, and due to a normal-sized coronary sinus on preoperative echocardiography.Conclusion
Malpositioning of a venous cannula in a PLSVC should be anticipated as one of the potential complications of vascular access via the left internal jugular vein. 相似文献10.
