Comparison of the efficacy of different venous intubation in venous-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation assisted lung transplantation / 中华危重病急救医学

Objective:To compare the curative effects of different venous cannulas and drainage to improve patient's whole body oxygenation during the auxiliary process of venous-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) in lung transplantation.Methods:From December 2016 to December 2019, 12 patients who were assisted by VA-ECMO in one lung transplantation in People's Hospital of Henan Province were selected as the research objects. According to the number of side holes of venous cannulas, they were divided into two groups: one group with few side holes and other group with multiple side holes. The differences in blood gas indexes among the right radial artery, left radial artery, and right internal jugular vein before and after assistance were compared, and the assistance effect was evaluated.Results:The arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2) of blood gas indexes of the right and left radial arteries in both groups were significantly higher than that before assistance [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): right and left radial artery in few side holes group: 79.5±4.2 vs. 48.3±3.8 and 88.1±3.5 vs. 48.3±3.8; right and left radial artery in multiple side holes group: 67.7±5.9 vs. 48.7±3.2 and 84.0±3.8 vs. 48.7±3.2, all P < 0.05]. The arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2) of blood gas index was significantly lower than that before assistance (mmHg: 44.2±2.6 vs. 71.7±4.4 for the right radial artery and 44.7±1.4 vs. 71.7±4.4 for the left radial artery in the group with few side holes; 46.2±2.1 vs. 71.2±3.5 for the right radial artery and 44.1±1.9 vs. 71.2±3.5 for the left radial artery in the group with multiple side holes, all P < 0.05). The partial pressure of oxygen in venous blood (PvO 2) of blood gas index of ECMO system in the group with few side holes was significantly lower than that of the multiport side holes group (mmHg: 56.4±3.2 vs. 88.7±1.5, P < 0.01), and the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in venous blood (PvCO 2) was significantly higher than that of multiport side holes group (mmHg: 63.6±3.7 vs. 44.2±1.7, P < 0.01). Conclusions:When VA-ECMO is used in lung transplantation, the superior vena cava blood flow can be fully drained by using intravenous cannula with few side holes. It can effectively improve the oxygenation of the upper body of lung transplant patients, avoid the dilemma of hypoxemia in the upper body and hyperxemia in the lower body, provide more effective assistance to patients undergoing single lung transplantation, and is more meaningful for improving the oxygenation status of the whole body in patients undergoing single lung transplantation.

Distribution and clinical significance of EGFR mutations in phase Ⅰ non-small-cell lung cancer / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

Objective To investigate the distribution and clinical significance of EGFR mutations in phase Ⅰ non-smallcell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods We examined 272 consecutive phase Ⅰ NSCLC patients' tumor samples for EGFR mutations in exons 18,19,20 and 21 using the Amplification Refractory Mutation System(ARMS).Results 154 patients (56.62％)were identified with mutations in the series of 272.Of all the mutations identified,2 (1.3％) were aminoacidic substitutions (G719 S) in exon 18,53 (34.4 ％) were in frame deletions (19-del) in exon 19,6 (3.9 ％) were insertional mutations (20-ins) in exon 19 and 97 (63.9 ％) were aminoacidic substitutions (L858 R) in exon 21.There were 11 patients with coexisting mutations in other exons.The probability of the coexisting resistance mutations (20-ins) in exon 21 was significantly higher than that in exon 19 (P ＜ 0.05).Mutations in adenocarcinoma samples (148/223,66.4％) were more frequent than that in squamous carcinoma(2/40,5％),while mutations in adeno-squamous carcinoma were highest in all histologic types (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion EGFR mutations in phase Ⅰ NSCLC in Shanghai and surrounding areas were 56.62％.Mutations were more frequent in particular histologic types,e.g.adenocarcinoma and adeno-squamous carcinoma.Exon 19 deletion mutations and the substitution mutation L858R in exon 21 are the most frequent in NSCLC.And the probability of coexisting 20-ins mutations in exon 21 was significantly higher than which in exon 19.

Clinical experience of airway anastomosis stenosis after lung transplantation / 中华器官移植杂志

Objective To discuss the cause,prevention,treatment of airway anastomosis stenosis after lung transplantation.Methods From Jan.2003 to Sep.2005,8 homogeneity variant single lung transplantations were performed successfully at our hospital.All the cases were subjected to a running suture on the membranous wall and single stitches on the anterior cartilaginous part.Among the 11 cases,9 were still alive well. In 4 patients having aspergillus infection after operation,2 patients suffered from bronchial anastomosis stenosis.Results There were bronchial anastomosis stenosises in the 2 patients one month and 7 months after transplantation, respectively.All of them were cured by stenting.Conclusions Airway anastomosis stenosis was associated with bronchial ischemia,aspergillus infection,suture technique and so on.The stenting was positively effective for airway anastomosis stenosis.
