ABSTRACT

We report the case of a patient with a pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aortic clinically diagnosed 5 months after surgical replacement of the aortic valve. Diagnosis was confirmed with the aid of two-dimensional echocardiography and helicoidal angiotomography. The corrective surgery, which consisted of a reinforced suture of the communication with the ascending aorta after opening and aspiration of the cavity of the pseudoaneurysm, was successfully performed through a complete sternotomy using extracorporeal circulation, femorofemoral cannulation, and moderate hypothermia, with no aortic clamping.

ABSTRACT

Apresenta a experiência inicial do Serviço de Cirurgia Cardíaca do Instituto de Moléstias Cardiovasculares de Cascavel, no tratamento cirúrgico de massas tumorais intracardíacas. Dentre 808 procedimentos cirúrgicos para tratamento de cardiopatias, num período de 55 meses, quatro foram retiradas cirúrgicas de tumores intracardíacos. Em todos os casos o diagnóstico, de massa tumoral, do tipo mixoma, foi efetuado através da acocardiografia transtorácica, sendo em um caso realizada a suspeita de trombo, com confirmaçäo histológica, após retirada cirúrgica. Os quatro pacientes tiveram uma evoluçäo muito boa a curto prazo, sem apresentarem morbi-mortalidade hospitalar. Na evoluçäo a médio prazo todos os pacientes encontram-se em classe funcional I da NYHA. Conclui-se que após diagnóstico ecocardiográfico de massas tumorais intracardíacas, a sua retirada deve ser imediata, porque os resultados a curto e médio prazo säo muito bons(AB)
