ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and security of one-stop hybrid cardiac surgery for the treatment of elderly patients with complex heart disease.Methods From November 2013 to March 2014,a total of 5 patients[4 male,age:71-78years] underwent one-stop hybrid approach in the hybrid operating room with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in 3 cases,2 cases of diabetes,3 cases of hypertension,valvular heart disease in 3 cases,PDA in 1 case,4 patients with multivessel coronary disease.Right minimally invasive cardiac surgery(coronary artery bypass grafting or valvular surgery) and percutaneous intervention were performed in an enhanced operative unit.The efficacy and security of one-stop hybrid cardiac surgery were evaluated after the procedure.Results The one-stop hybrid procedure was successful in all patients.Operation time was (125 ± 28) minutes,CPI time was (65 ± 33) minutes,CPB time was (60 ± 23) minutes,Aortic cross clamping time was (42 ± 18) minutes,postoperative mechanical ventilation time was (20.5 ±6.5)hours and ICU monitoring time was (68.9 ± 16.6)hours.Hospitalization time was (9.8 ± 3.7) days.Patients remained free from angina,prosthetic valve dysfunction and patent ductus arteriosus recanalisation(rang 1 to 5 months) follow-up period.Conclusion One-stop hybrid cardiac surgery provides a reasonable,feasible and safe alternative for treating elderly patients with complex heart disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical effect of the improved operation of endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy(ETS)for treatment of palmar hyperhidrosis.Methods The improved operation of ETS was used to 105 patients with palmar hyperhidrosis.T3 sympathetic was blocked in 105 cases with palmar hyperhidrosis.Results Hand sweating disappeared and axillary sweating discreased significantly in all patients.No one had any serious complications such as bleeding and Horner Syndrome except for five patients with pneumothoraces.Compensatory sweating was found in 15 patients following up from 1~12 months after operation.Conclusion The improved operation of ETS is a simple,safe,effective and less complications procedures.
