ABSTRACT

In September 2020, an elderly patient with cognitive impairment(CI) was admitted in Deparment of Microsurgery, Hangzhou Qiushi Hospital. The patient was in bed and could not answer correctly before surgery. The preoperative Minimum Mental State Examination(MMSE) score was 3(3/30) and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score was 2(2/30). After completion of preoperative examinations, a 3D microscope combined with fluorescence tracing technique was used to perform deep cervical lymphatic-venous anastomosis at the bilateral cervical Va lymph nodes part: two anastomosis methods were performed, one was end to side anastomosis and the other was end to end anastomosis. The diameters of all anastomotic dilated lymphatic vessels were less than 0.2 mm, the diameters of end-to-side, end to end anastomotic veins were 0.6 mm and 0.2 mm. Short-term postoperative anti-inflammatory treatment was given and a long-term functional rehabilitation training was performed. There were no postoperative complications and the incision healed well. The MMSE scores were 8, 12, 14, 18 point, and the MoCA scores were 8, 9, 11, 13 point. At 3, 30, 90, 180 days after surgery, respectively. Basic cognitive function was restored at 9 months after surgery.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To review the clinical progress of microsurgical management for lymphedema. Methods: The literature on microsurgical treatment for lymphedema at home and abroad in recent years was reviewed and analyzed. Results: At present, conservative treatment is the main treatment for lymphedema, which has limited effectiveness only for early stages of lymphedema; and it is not curative and demands patient compliance. In contrast, microsurgical approaches can solve the problems in the prevention or management of lymphedema and showed promising results, such as lymphatic-venous anastomosis (LVA), vascularized lymph node transfer (VLNT), and other lymphatic reconstructions. Conclusion: Microsurgical approaches like LVA and VLNT have been broadly used in recent years, the effectiveness and safety have been proved. But the evidence of long-term randomized controlled studies is still required to establish standard treatment practices.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the analgesic effect of ropivacaine and flurbiprofen for patients with secondary upper extremity lymphedema after lymphatic venous anastomosis . Methods A total of 45 cases of lymphatic venous anastomosis under general anesthesia between October 2014 and March 2016 were randomly allocated to 3 groups: ropivacaine group ( group R ) , flurbiprofen preprocessing group (group F1), and flurbiprofen postprocessing group (group F2), with 15 cases in each group.Local infiltration anesthesia was made with 0.2% ropivacaine 10 ml at the incision before the end of operation in the group R .The flurbiprofen 100 mg was intravenously injected at 5 minutes before the induction of anaesthesia in the group F 1 and 5 minutes before the end of operation in the group F 2 .The visual analogue scale ( VAS) scores and the number of patients using analgesics after operation at 1, 2, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h were recorded. Results The rest pain and movement pain VAS scores at postoperative 2 h were lower in the group R than those in the group F1 and F2[rest pain:(3.4 ±0.7) points vs.(4.2 ±0.9) points vs.(4.1 ±1.0) points, F=3.741, P=0.032;movement pain:(3.7 ±0.6) points vs.(4.6 ±0.9) points vs.(4.4 ±1.0) points, F=4.305, P=0.020]. The rest pain VAS scores at postoperative 6 h were lower in the group R than those in the group F 1 and F2 [(2.7 ±0.5) points vs. (3.4 ±0.5) points vs.(3.1 ±0.6) points, F=5.783, P=0.006].The number of patients requiring analgetics was lower in the group R than that in the group F1 and F2 at postoperative 2 h (1 case vs.7 cases vs.5 cases,χ2 =6.058, P=0.048). Conclusion Local anesthesia with ropivacaine in patients after lymphatic venous anastomosis can achieve good postoperative analgesia .

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To study the clinical effects of liposuction combined with lymphatico-venous anastomosis for treatment of secondary lymphedema of the lower limbs.@*Methods@#A retrospective analysis was performed for 49 patients who had undergone liposuction combined with lymphatico-venous anastomosis to treat secondary lymphedema of the lower limbs at Department of Lymph Surgery, Beijing Shijitan Hospital from November 2013 to February 2015.All patients were female aging from 31 to 70 years with median age of (52±10)years.All patients had history of pelvic surgery.There were 32 cases with cervical carcinoma, 11 cases with endometrial cancer, 1 case with ovarian cancer who accepted radical hysterectomy, 2 cases with benign tumor who accepted resection, 2 cases accepted inguinal lymph node dissection, 1 case with rectal cancer accepted radical resection.There were 30 cases with history of radiation therapy and 23 cases with history of erysipelas recurrent((2.1±3.9)/year). The limb swelling degree in preoperative and postoperative patients was explored using one-way analysis of variance with replicate measures and paired sample t-test. Meanwhile the incidence of lymphogenous infection was used as an evaluation of operation efficacy.@*Results@#The mean lower limb circumference difference at 7 days, 6 months and 12 months was (0.17±1.36)cm, (1.25±1.62)cm and(1.58±1.56)cm, respectively, which was significantly decreased compared with preoperative((4.92±2.16)cm) (t=-5.712, -5.777, -5.765; all P<0.01). The mean lower limb volume difference at 7 days, 6 months and 12 months was (522±799)ml, (726±973)ml and (889±895)ml, respectively, which was significantly decreased compared with preoperative((2 729±1 335) ml)(t=-5.905, -6.093, -5.777; all P<0.01). The incidence of erysipelas was 0.0(0.0, 0.0)/6 months within 6 months after operation and 0.0(0.0, 0.0)/6 months within 6-12 months after operation, which was significantly lower than that before operation(0.0(0.0, 2.0)/year). The feeling of tightness and heaviness of the limb was significantly improved compared with preoperative.@*Conclusion@#Liposuction combined with lymphatico-venous anastomosis is an effective method for the treatment of secondary lymphedema of the lower limbs.

ABSTRACT

A woman with a monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy was referred to our Centre due to a discrepancy in size between the foetuses. She was 17 weeks' pregnant when the diagnosis of selective IUGR type 2 was made and the laser ablation of the placental anastomoses was performed. During the fetoscopy, we identified an arterio-venous anastomosis with bidirectional flow, which is atypical in this type of anastomoses (unidirectionals) and could represent a sign of ominous prognosis for the restricted twin.


Presentamos el caso de una gestante de 17 semanas con una gestación gemelar monocoriónica biamniótica complicada con RCIU selectivo tipo 2 que requirió, de acuerdo a criterios ecográficos, ablación quirúrgica láser de las anastomosis placentarias. Se identificó durante la fetoscopia una anastomosis arterio-venosa que mostraba flujo bidireccional lo cual es sumamente inusual en este tipo de anastomosis, no reportado antes en la literatura, constituyendo así un signo de mal pronóstico para el gemelo pequeño.

ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the clinical application value of phleboplasties combined with microvascular anastomotic device in venous anastomosis with diameter discrepancy in head and neck defects reconstruction.Methods Sixty-six pairs of veins with significant diameter discrepancy were anastomosed in head and neck reconstructive surgeries with free flaps.Forty of them were anastomosed with microvascular anastomotic device (the coupler group) after phleboplasties including lateral incision, Y-T enlargement and wedge excision while the other 26 pairs of veins were conventionally sutured (the sutured group).Diameter of each vein, anastomosis time, post-operative vascular crisis, flap survival and complications related to the microvascular anastomotic device were recorded.Results The average anastomosis time of the coupler group was (4.78 ± 1.14) min for lateral incision, (5.16 ± 2.07) min for Y-T enlargement and (11.09 ± 3.21) min for wedge excision, and all of them were significantly shorter than that of the sutured group.In the sutured group, all flaps survived except for 2 veins with poor blood flow were cut and re-anastomosed during the operation;1 flap with venous crisis within 72 hours after the operations was explored and replaced with the pectoralis major myocutaneous flap.All veins in the coupler group were successfully anastomosed in a single coupling procedure without anastomotic impatency, blood leak, vessel tearing and ring shedding.No vascular crisis occurred postoperatively.One patient underwent cervical haematoma 5 hours after the operation, and the flap blood supply was unaffected after the haematoma was removed.All flaps in the coupler group survived completely.Patients in both two groups were followed up 6 to 18 months.All flaps healed perfectly and no obvious surgical complications or microvascular anastomotic device rejection happened.Conclusion When anastomoses are carried out using microvascular anastomotic device between veins of different size, phleboplasties including lateral incision., Y-T enlargement and wedge excision can not only reduce the size discrepancy and the anastomosis time, but also ease the difficulty level and guarantee the patency of the venous anastomoses.Wedge excision enjoys the advantage of haemodynamics, and obstruction of venous reflux hardly occurred for size reduction.It should be considered preferentially when external jugular veins are used as the anastomotic vein of the recipient sites in head and neck reconstruction.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To describe a case in which vitrectomy was required for vitreous hemorrhage and fibrovascular proliferation after laser-induced chorioretinal venous anastomosis (LCVA) for non-ischemic central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO).METHODS: Observational case report.RESULTS: A 72-year-old man complained of central scotoma in the left eye, and was diagnosed as suffering from non-ischemic CRVO. LCVA was performed in another hospital. Although favorable visual function was briefly maintained postoperatively,severe vitreous hemorrhage developed in his left eye, necessitating vitrectomy. CONCLUSION: Considering that LCVA carries a risk of serious complications, we must apply this treatment with caution, especially in ethnic groups, such as the Japanese, in whom pigmentation reacts to photocoagulation excessively.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: The most frequent complication in vascular access for hemodialysis is the stenosis of venous anastomosis site and resultant thrombosis. And it has been suggested that the correction of stenosis before thrombosis can prolong graft survival. We compared the outcomes of surgical repair between stenosed group and thrombosed group. METHODS: From March 2003 to July 2007, 155 cases of stenosed graft-venous anastomosis (GVA) of arteriovenous graft (AVG) underwent salvage operation; 53 elective revisions for stenosis (group A), and 102 emergency open thrombectomies with jump grafts (group B). Outcomes were compared by post-intervention primary patency (PIPP) and post-intervention secondary patency (PISP). RESULTS: The mean follow-up duration was 24.8+/-15.2 months. Surgical success rate was 100% for elective revision group and 98% for emergency operation group. Elective revision of symptomatic GVA stenosis improved PIPP compared to emergency operation of thrombosed graft (mean 13.0 vs. 8.6 months, P=0.018). But PISP was not extended (mean 24.2 vs. 23.2 months, P=0.359). The electively revised GVA stenosed graft had fewer subsequent thrombotic events (0.3 vs 0.7 thrombosis/patient year, P=0.027) and fewer interventions (0.6 vs. 1.2 interventions/patient year, P=0.06). The proportion of other stenoses for group A and group B was 35.8% and 38.2%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The frequency of subsequent thrombotic events and total number of postoperative interventions decreased significantly after elective revision. Elective revision of GVA stenosis in PTFE graft prolongs PIPP, and should be considered before the occurrence of thrombosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To improve the efficacy of the Nd : YAG laser-induced chorioretinal venous anastomosis in the rabbits'eyes. Methods Immediately after branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) model was made by argon laser in 40 eyes of 20 normal rabbits, the rabbits were divided into two groups. In the first group (experimental group), there were 10 rabbits treated with the argon laser followed by the Nd : YAG laser induced chorioretinal venous anastomosis. In the second group (control group), the rabbits were treated only with the argon laser induced chorioretinal venous anastomosis. Results An anastomosis in experimental group was formed in 6 rabbits within 4 - 6 weeks after treatment while no anastomosis was formed in control group. During 2 - 6 months the hemorrhage of retina or vitrous with laser photocoagulation were absorbed within 8 weeks and no other severe complications were found. Conclusion Applying Nd : YAG laser can improve the efficacy of chorioretinal venous anastomosis in the rabbils eyes.

ABSTRACT

The application of microsurgical techniques to replant amputated ears has reliable outcome in ear salvage. However as the vessels available for anastomosis are relatively small, the technical success of the vascular repair is still challenging. In addition, avulsion amputations are a common occurrence and this makes ear vessels not available for use. Indeed, even when veins are identified and repaired or reconstructed, their relatively low flow state combined with postoperative swelling leads to a high rate of problems such as venous drainage. In these situations, either sticking the ear and allowing bleed freely or, more often, the leech therapy can be used as external decompression of the venous congestion in the replanted ear, which made the replantations successful. We present a successful result of microsurgical replantation in almost totally amputated ear which is anastomosed in the lower division of postauricular artery. No attempt was made to reestablish venous outflow microsurgically. Instead of venous repair, the leech therapy was applied immediately for the purpose of external decompression of postoperative venous congestion and the outcome was successful. This case provides the evidence that venous repair is not the requisite for successful replantation.
