ABSTRACT

Cardiopulmonary bypass causes an inflammatory response and consumption of coagulation factors, increasing the risk of bleeding and neurological and renal complications. Its use during lung transplantation may be due to pulmonary hypertension or associated cardiac defects or just for better exposure of the pulmonary hilum. We describe a simple technique, or open pericardium retraction, to improve hilar exposure by lifting the heart by upward retraction of the pericardial sac. This technique permits lung transplantation without cardiopulmonary bypass when bypass use is recommended only for better exposure.

ABSTRACT

Lung transplantation is a well-established treatment for advanced lung diseases. In children, the diseases that most commonly lead to the need for a transplantation are cystic fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension, and bronchiolitis. However, the number of pediatric lung transplantations being performed is low compared with the number of transplants performed in the adult age group. The objective of this study was to demonstrate our experience with pediatric lung transplants over a 10-year period in a program initially designed for adults.

ABSTRACT

Sessenta pacientes foram submetidos a toracoscopia diagnóstica e terapêutica para abordagem de massas mediastinais, nos dois hospitais escola da Universidade de São Paulo (Hospital das Clinicas e Hospital Universitário), entre outubro de 1983 e outubro de 1997, analisados retrospectivamente com o obejetivo de se estabelecer a eficácia do procedimento e suas complicações. MÉTODOS: foram realizadas, entre 1983 e 1992, vinte e uma toracoscopias convencionais - Grupo I - (14 diagnósticas e 7 terapêuticas); e entre 1992 e 1997, trinta e nove videotoracoscopias; Grupo II - (16 diagnósticas e 23 terapêuticas). RESULTADOS: conversão para toracotomia foi necessária em 4 pacientes do Grupo I (pelas dimensões do tumor) e em 5 pacientes do Grupo II (3 pelas dimensões do tumor, 1 para suturar lesão iatrogênica do diafragma e 1 por lesão do gânglio estrelado). Houve 4 mortes (4/21) no Grupo I, nos primeiros 30 dias do pós-operatório, conseqüentes à síndorme da veia cava superior . No Grupo II não houve óbito. Os tipos histológiocs mais freqüentes foram: Timona e Schwanoma. CONCLUSÃO: a toracoscopia mostrou-se uma alternativa diagnóstica e terapêutica para os tumores mediastinais (au)
