Résumé

ABSTRACT Introduction: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the most common causes of recurrent angina after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and our treatment approaches applied in these patients. Methods: We included all patients who underwent CABG, with or without percutaneous coronary intervention after CABG, at our hospital from September 2013 to December 2019. Patients were divided into two groups according to the time of onset of anginal pain after CABG. Forty-five patients (58.16 ± 8.78 years) had recurrent angina in the first postoperative year after CABG and were specified as group I (early recurrence). Group II (late recurrence) comprised 82 patients (58.05 ± 8.95 years) with angina after the first year of CABG. Results: The mean preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction was 53.22 ± 8.87% in group I, and 54.7 ± 8.58% in group II (P=0.38). No significant difference was registered between groups I and II regarding preoperative angiographic findings (P>0.05). Failed grafts were found in 27.7% (n=28/101) of the grafts in group I as compared to 26.8% (n=51/190) in group II (P>0.05). Twenty-four (53.3%) patients were treated medically in group I, compared with 54 (65.8%) patients in group II (P=0.098). There was a need for intervention in 46.6% (n=21) of group I patients, and in 34.1% (n=28) of group II patients. Conclusion: Recurrent angina is a complaint that should not be neglected because most of the patients with recurrent angina are diagnosed with either native coronary or graft pathology in coronary angiography performed.

Résumé

As the number of patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases and peripheral vascular diseases rises, the constraints of autologous transplantation remain unavoidable. As a result, artificial vascular grafts must be developed. Adhesion of proteins, platelets and bacteria on implants can result in stenosis, thrombus formation, and postoperative infection, which can be fatal for an implantation. Polyurethane, as a commonly used biomaterial, has been modified in various ways to deal with the adhesions of proteins, platelets, and bacteria and to stimulate endothelium adhesion. In this review, we briefly summarize the mechanisms behind adhesions, overview the current strategies of surface modifications of polyurethane biomaterials used in vascular grafts, and highlight the challenges that need to be addressed in future studies, aiming to gain a more profound understanding of how to develop artificial polyurethane vascular grafts with an enhanced implantation success rate and reduced side effect.

Résumé

A 49-year-old female with ruptured left common iliac mycotic arterial aneurysm (Lt. CIAA) was brought to our hospital as an emergency case. In Japan, endovascular treatment is unsuitable for the treatment of mycotic aneurysms, but findings from a Swedish national database showed that there was no difference in the long-term prognosis lasting over 10 years. Therefore, we performed endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) and saved the patient's life. The diameter of the proxymal sealing zone was larger than that of the distal zone. We used the Gore Excluder leg, which was inverted and implanted to match the caliber. Percutaneous abscess drainage was also performed on postoperative day 7 when hemostasis was confirmed for early infection control. The patient was discharged at 8 weeks postoperatively. After discharge from the hospital, oral antibiotics were continued until 6 months after the surgery. Six months postoperatively, contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed that the abscesses have disappeared. Blood samples that were taken at one month after the completion of antibiotics showed no evidence of the recurrence of infection and a curative course was achieved.

Résumé

Resumen: La endocarditis infecciosa, la infección cardiovascular en general, es una enfermedad médico-quirúrgica compleja que requiere un tratamiento multidisciplinario precoz, específico y agresivo. A pesar de los avances médicos, ésta sigue siendo una enfermedad con una morbi-mortalidad elevada, por lo que el tratamiento antibiótico se complementa en un 40-50% de los pacientes mediante intervención quirúrgica. Por lo tanto, es necesario conocer las opciones que pueden llegar a ser utilizadas para extirpar el tejido infectado. El objetivo de este trabajo es discutir aspectos de interés en la cirugía de la endocarditis infecciosa.


Abstract: Infective endocarditis (IE) is a complex disease that requires a multidisciplinary approach and early and aggressive treatment. Despite médical and surgical advances, this disease still has high morbidity and mortality. The antibiotic treatment is complemented in 40-50% of the cases with surgical intervention. Thus, it is useful to be aware of the possibilities that might be contemplated in order to excise the infected tissues. The aim of this work is to discuss current surgical aspects of interest in the surgery IE.

Résumé

Resumo A oclusão arterial aguda do membro inferior continua sendo um grande desafio para o cirurgião vascular. A abordagem cirúrgica depende principalmente da gravidade da lesão tecidual e da duração dos sintomas. Diversas técnicas estão disponíveis no arsenal terapêutico atual; porém, independentemente da técnica escolhida, fatores pós-operatórios, como o escoamento arterial limitado e o baixo fluxo nos substitutos arteriais, podem contribuir negativamente no resultado da revascularização. Descrevemos um caso de oclusão arterial aguda de membro inferior, no pós-operatório de uma derivação femorotibial, que se encontrava ocluída devido a limitação de escoamento e a alta resistência vascular periférica. Foi submetido a nova revascularização femorotibial, associada à confecção de uma fístula arteriovenosa, seguido de amputação de antepé e enxerto parcial de pele. O investimento enérgico no membro em risco possibilita reduzir os desfechos desfavoráveis, como amputação e óbito, e acelera a recuperação dos tecidos acometidos pela isquemia aguda.


Abstract Acute arterial occlusion remains a major challenge for the vascular surgeon. The therapeutic approach depends mostly upon the severity of the tissue injury and the duration of symptoms. Several techniques are available in the current therapeutic arsenal, however, regardless of the technique chosen, postoperative factors frequently observed, such as poor outflow status, or even low graft flow, can contribute negatively to the outcome of revascularization. We describe a case of acute limb ischemia, in the postoperative period of a femoral-tibial bypass, which was occluded due to outflow limitation and high peripheral vascular resistance. The patient underwent a second tibial revascularization combined with construction of an arteriovenous fistula, followed by forefoot amputation and partial skin graft. An energetic approach to the at-risk limb makes it possible to reduce unfavorable outcomes, such as amputation and death, and accelerates recovery of tissues affected by acute ischemia.

Résumé

The most serious problem facing the implantation of vascular graft in the body is the formation of blood clots. In order to solve this problem, various attempts have been made by the scientific community for many years. However, endothelialization is the fundamental method to solve thrombosis and keep vascular graft open for a long time. Poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) has the advantages of biodegradability, low cost and good mechanical properties. In recent years, it has been widely used as tissue engineering scaffolds, drug deliverys and so on. This article mainly reviews the endothelialization of small-caliber vascular graft based on PCL after implanted in different animal models, as well as the endothelialization of the same animal model but under different implantation conditions, and trying to find the reasons why small-caliber vascular grafts are still not ideal in clinical applications at different angles such as the different animal models and the different way about endothelialization, and provide references for future animal model selection.

Résumé

Background : Cardiovascular surgery involves the use of several artificial materials as graft vessels. Although artificial blood vessels of medium and large diameters currently present a satisfactory patency and durability, those of small diameter remain inferior to one's own vessels to prevent issues such as early thrombosis and vascular stenosis. The present study aimed to investigate the functionality of decellularized tissues that hold structures and growth factors derived from a living body. Methods : Mini pigs were used for the study. The bovine-derived decellularized blood vessels were transplanted into the pigs' carotid artery, and no anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs were used after the surgery. The blood vessels were dissected and evaluated for patency and tissue staining. Result : The patency of the blood vessels was confirmed in all cases ; however, a thrombus was confirmed in one transplanted vessel. Pathological findings showed maintenance of the blood vessel structure, presenting no issues with collagen or elastin. Conclusion : This study demonstrated that biologically derived decellularized blood vessels are highly functional and present an intact luminal basement membrane, even without antiplatelet therapy. This study suggested that decellularized blood vessels can potentially help in the development of medical devices with higher functionality than that of the existing materials.

Résumé

SUMMARY: Arterial obstruction in small diameter (<6 mm) vessels are many times treated with grafts, however autologous aren't always available and synthetic have a high rate of complications. Decellularization of umbilical arteries may provide a solution, but the ideal method is debatable. We compare effectiveness between SDS and Triton X-100. Umbilical cords obtained from full term pregnancies with normal development and no evident complications in the newborn, were micro-dissected within 12 h and stored in phosphate buffered saline without freezing. Arteries were then processed for decellularization using 0.1 % and 1 % SDS, and 1 % Triton X100 protocols. Evaluation of cellular and nuclear material, collagen fibers, elastic fibers, and glycosoaminoglycans of the extracellular matrix (ECM) were evaluated as well as morphometric analysis under histological and immunohistochemical techniques. Triton X-100 was ineffective, preserving nuclear remains identified by immunofluorescence, had the most notable damage to elastic fibers, and decrease in collagen. SDS effectively eliminated the nuclei and had a less decrease in elastic fibers and collagen. Laminin was preserved in all groups. No significant differences were identified in luminal diameters; however the middle layer decreased due to decellularization of muscle cells. In conclusion, 0.1 % SDS decellularization was the most effective in eliminating cells and preserving the main components of the ECM.


RESUMEN: La obstrucción arterial en vasos de pequeño diámetro (<6 mm) se trata muchas veces con injertos, sin embargo, los autólogos no siempre están disponibles y los sintéticos tienen una alta tasa de complicaciones. La descelularización de las arterias umbilicales puede proporcionar una solución, pero el método ideal es discutible. Comparamos la efectividad entre los métodos SDS y Triton X-100. Cordones umbilicales obtenidos a partir de embarazos a término con evolución normal y sin complicaciones evidentes del recién nacido, se microdiseccionaron en 12 horas y se almacenaron en solución salina con fosfato sin congelación. Las arterias se procesaron luego para la descelularización usando los protocolos de SDS al 0,1 % y 1 %, y Triton X-100 al 1 %. Se realizó la evaluación de material celular y nuclear, fibras de colágeno, fibras elásticas y glucosoaminoglicanos de la matriz extracelular (MEC), así como el análisis morfométrico bajo técnicas histológicas e inmunohistoquímicas. Triton X-100 fue ineficaz, conservando los restos nucleares identificados por inmunofluorescencia, tuvo el daño más notable a las fibras elásticas y la disminución del colágeno. SDS efectivamente eliminó los núcleos y tuvo una disminución menor en las fibras elásticas y el colágeno. Laminina fue preservado en todos los grupos. No se identificaron diferencias significativas en los diámetros luminales; sin embargo, la capa media disminuyó debido a la descelularización de las células musculares. la descelularización con SDS al 0,1 % fue la más efectiva para eliminar células y preservar los principales componentes de la MEC.

Résumé

PURPOSE: To explore the effects of biodegradable magnesium alloy stents (BMAS) on remodeling of vein graft (VG) anastomotic restenosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: To establish a VG restenosis model, seventy two New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups according to whether a stent was implanted in the graft vein or not. BMASs and 316L stainless steel stents were implanted in BMAS and 316L groups, respectively, while no stent was implanted in the no-treatment control group (NC group). Loss of lumen diameter in the graft vein was measured in all three groups. Upon harvesting VG segments to evaluate intimal proliferation and re-endothelization, the degradation and biological safety of the stents were observed to explore the effects of BMAS on VG remodeling. RESULTS: Model establishment and stent implantation were successful. The BMAS reduced lumen loss, compared with the control group (0.05±0.34 mm vs. 0.90±0.39 mm, p=0.001), in the early stage. The neointimal area was smaller in the BMAS group than the 316L group after 4 months (4.96±0.66 mm2 vs. 6.80±0.69 mm2, p=0.017). Re-endothelialization in the BMAS group was better than that in the 316L group (p=0.001). Within 4 months, the BMAS had degraded, and the magnesium was converted to phosphorus and calcium. The support force of the BMAS began to reduce at 2–3 months after implantation, without significant toxic effects. CONCLUSION: BMAS promotes positive remodeling of VG anastomosis and has advantages over the conventional 316L stents in the treatment of venous diseases.

Résumé

Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and endovascular treatment (EVT) are currently the main treatments for reperfusion in acute ischemic stroke. Although the EVT recanalization rate has increased, unsuccessful recanalization is still observed in 10-30% cases. Superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass is considered a rescue therapy in such cases, but in most centers it is not usually performed for acute ischemic stroke. Graft occlusion is rare following STA-MCA bypass, but it might lead to recurrent ischemic stroke. We hereby report on a patient with right MCA infarction and in whom EVT failed due to complete proximal internal carotid artery occlusion. He underwent an emergency STA-MCA bypass, resulting in a full recovery of his motor weakness. However, six months later, the patient experienced recurrent acute ischemic stroke due to bypass graft occlusion. His EVT failed again but revision bypass surgery, using STA remnant branch, was successful with full motor weakness recovery. We recommend a revision bypass surgery as a feasible therapeutic option for recurrent cerebral infarction caused by delayed STA graft occlusion.

Résumé

Resumo Contexto A reestenose intra-stent por hiperplasia miointimal pós-angioplastia é uma intercorrência frequente e que limita a perviedade do procedimento a longo prazo. A terapia com balões revestidos de droga com ação antiproliferativa pode ser uma alternativa no tratamento dessa complicação. Objetivos Demonstrar eficácia e as complicações (óbito, grandes amputações, etc.) do balão farmacológico no tratamento da reestenose intra-stent de segmento femoropoplíteo. Métodos Estudo de coorte retrospectivo de 32 pacientes consecutivos tratados entre os anos de 2012 e 2016, submetidos a terapia de reestenose intra-stent de segmento femoropoplíteo com angioplastia com balão farmacológico revestido com paclitaxel. A taxa de sucesso foi mensurada pela ocorrência de sucesso do procedimento e reestenose inferior a 50% em avaliação por eco-Doppler colorido 30, 90 e 180 dias após o procedimento. Resultados Quatro pacientes (12,5%) apresentaram reestenose superior a 50%, sendo um (3,1%) após 90 dias e três (9,4%) após 180 dias, conferindo uma taxa de sucesso de 87,5% ao procedimento. Após 180 dias, todos os pacientes referiam melhora ou cessação dos sinais e/ou sintomas apresentados antes do procedimento. Não houve óbitos, e complicações ocorreram apenas em dois casos, no pós-operatório imediato. Conclusões Os resultados a curto prazo da terapia com balão farmacológico são promissores, com redução na taxa de reestenose e baixo índice de complicações. Ainda precisam ser apresentados estudos demonstrando os efeitos a longo prazo dessa terapia, assim como seu impacto econômico quando comparada a outros procedimentos.


Abstract Background In-stent restenosis due to myointimal hyperplasia after angioplasty is common and limits long-term patency. Treatments using balloons coated with antiproliferative drugs may offer an alternative option for this pathology. Objectives To demonstrate the efficacy and complications (death, major amputations, etc.) of drug-coated balloons for treatment of in-stent restenosis in femoropopliteal segments. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of 32 consecutive patients treated between 2012 and 2016 who underwent treatment to correct in-stent restenosis in the femoropopliteal segment using paclitaxel-coated balloons. The success rate was measured in terms of technical success and restenosis of less than 50% on Doppler ultrasonography at 30, 90, and 180 days after the procedure. Results Four patients (12.5%) exhibited restenosis greater than 50%, one (3.1%) after 90 days and three (9.4%) after 180 days, equating to a success rate of 87.5% of procedures, and by 180 days all patients experienced improvement or cessation of the signs and/or symptoms they had presented prior to the procedure. There were no deaths and complications occurred in just 2 cases in the immediate postoperative period. Conclusions Short-term results are promising, with reductions in the magnitude of restenosis and a low rate of complications. Further studies are needed that can demonstrate the long-term effects and the economic impacts in comparison to other procedures.

Résumé

Objective · To develop a new hybrid tissue-engineered vascular graft (HTEV) with excellent mechanical properties and biological functions. Methods · Decellularized rat aortas (DRAs) were prepared. Then, electrospinning nano poly (1,3-diamino-2-hydroxypropane-co-polyolsebacate) (ES-APS) was used to sheathe DRAs in order to improve the mechanical properties. After that, the intima of HTEV scaffold was modified with heparin coating. HTEVs were implanted in rat models in vivo to evaluate their biological functions. Six weeks later, vascular ultrasound and micro-CT angiography were carried out. Results · The donor aortic vessels were successfully decellularized. The total DNA content of DRA group [(115.4±10.9) ng/mg] significantly decreased compared with natural aorta group [(398.6±14.6) ng/mg] (P=0.000). But collagenous fibers and elastic fibers of decellularized vessels were severely injured. Mechanical tests of scaffolds showed that ES-APS significantly enhanced the mechanical properties. The wall thickness [(187±11) μm], suture retention strength [(0.51±0.06) N] and burst pressure [(2103±232) mmHg] of HTEV group all significantly increased compared with DRA group (P<0.01). Heparin coating modification of HTEV significantly reduced the number of adhesive platelets. Vascular ultrasound and micro-CT angiography showed all grafts were totally patent 6 weeks after implantation in rat models. ES-APS sheath successfully prevented the occurrence of vasodilation and aneurysm formation. Conclusion · DRA sheathed with ES-APS on adventitia and coated with heparin on intima is a new kind of HTEV, which possesses increased tensile strength and improved biocompatibility.

Objective To compare the prognosis of vascular in situ and bridge vessel percutaneous coronary intervention ( PCI) therapy strategies in patients with recurrent angina after coronary artery bypass grafting ( CABG) . Methods A total of one hundred and two patients with recurrent angina after CABG from January 2008 to January 2016 were involved in this study and were divided into two groups according to interventional therapy strategy:74 patients in the vascular in situ PCI group ( in situ group,74 cases) and 28 patients for bridge vessel PCI group ( bridge vessel group,28 cases) . The patients have been followed up for (33. 6± 10. 2) months. The major adverse cardiovascular events ( MACE) of the two groups were recorded, including non?fatal acute myocardial infarction ( AMI) ,target vessel revascularization ( TVR) and cardiac death, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the related factors of MACE. Results Compared with the bridge vessel group,the non?MACE survival rate,non?AMI survival rate and non?TVR survival rate of the in situ group were significantly increased ( ( 71. 6% ( 53/74 ) vs. 57. 1% ( 16/28 ) , 93. 2% ( 69/74 ) vs. 82. 1% (23/28),81. 1% (60/74) vs. 67. 9% (19/28) ),the differences were statistically significant (χ2=8. 141,4. 219,5. 436, P<0. 05) . Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age of bridge ( OR=1. 023,95%CI 1. 005-1. 026,P=0. 019) ,diabetes mellitus ( OR=2. 386,95%CI 1. 425-3. 991,P=0. 003) and bridge vessel PCI (OR=1. 884,95%CI 1. 093-3. 220,P=0. 025) were factors that affect the clinical prognosis in patients with recurrent angina pectoris after CABG. Conclusion The clinical prognosis of the in situ PCI is better than bridge vascular PCI in patients with recurrent angina after CABG,while the age of bridge, diabetes mellitus, vascular interventional treatment are factors for the effect of interventional therapy patients prognosis. The clinical prognosis is much better in native vessel PCI than that of bridge vessel PCI in patients with recurrent angina after CABG. The age of bridge,diabetes mellitus and bridge vessel PCI are the factors that affect the clinical prognosis in the patients.

Résumé

La opción de un injerto vascular es una medida correctiva para pacientes con enfermedad arterial periférica o aneurismas y para acceso arteriovenoso en pacientes con hemodiálisis crónica. A partir de la colocación de una prótesis de injerto vascular se puede desarrollar infección asociada en el 1-6% de los pacientes, con una alta incidencia de mortalidad del 13 al 58%. El diagnóstico de una infección asociada a injerto vascular se realiza a partir de hallazgos clínicos, microbiológicos e imagenológicos, para así definir, además de su presencia, su compromiso y extensión. El manejo ideal requiere de tratamiento quirúrgico y antibioticoterapia; sin embargo, el tratamiento quirúrgico no siempre es posible. Reportamos este caso de manejo médico exitoso de una infección de injerto vascular de aorta en la cual el 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT) presentó utilidad como método diagnóstico y de seguimiento.


The option of a vascular graft is a corrective intervention for patients with peripheral artery disease, aneurisms, and to achieve arterio-venous access in patients on chronic hemodialysis. Infections from a prosthetic vascular graft occurs in 1 to 6% of patients, and this development is related to the incidence of mortality of 13 to 58%. The diagnosis of a vascular graft infection is made via the combination of clinical, microbiologic and imaging findings that allow a definition of not only the presence of infection but also its severity and spread. The ideal approach requires both surgical and antimicrobial therapy; however, the former is not always possible. We report a case of successful medical management of an aortic vascular graft infection and the usefulness of a 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computedtomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT) scan as a tool for diagnosis and follow-up.

Résumé

PURPOSE: To analyze the long-term results of above-the-knee femoro-popliteal bypass (ATKFPB) with vein grafts compared with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts. METHODS: A database of patients with chronic atherosclerotic occlusive disease who underwent ATKFPB was retrospectively reviewed. Characteristics of patient and arterial lesion, and follow-up results were compared between vein grafts and PTFE grafts. Graft patency was determined by periodic examinations of duplex ultrasonography or CT angiograms. Graft patency and limb salvage rates were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: In total, 253 ATKFPBs (107 vein grafts; 146 PTFE grafts; critical limb ischemia, 32%) were performed on 228 patients (mean age, 68.5 years; male, 87.7%). No significant differences were observed between the two groups with respect to demographic characteristics, characteristics of arterial lesions, or distal runoff score. During the mean follow-up period of 41 months (range, 1-122 months), 14.5% patients died, and 94% of all limbs were available for follow-up. The primary patency rates were not significantly different between the two groups at 10 years after treatment (75% vs. 42%, P = 0.330). However, the primary-assisted patency rates (88% vs. 42%, P = 0.003) and secondary patency rates (91% vs. 49%, P = 0.013) were significantly higher in the vein grafts compared with the PTFE grafts. Graft occlusion developed more often in the PTFE grafts (5.6% vs. 20.5%, P = 0.001). When graft occlusion occurred, acute limb ischemia was significantly more frequent in the PTFE grafts than in the vein grafts (0% vs. 53%, P = 0.027). CONCLUSION: After ATKFPB, autologous vein grafts showed significantly better long-term results compared with PTFE grafts.

Résumé

Introdução: Apesar de bons resultados descritos na literatura, o substituto ideal para a utilização como remendo no fechamento arterial ainda não existe. Por este motivo, ainda há espaço para a busca por remendo que seja biocompatível, e que apresente facilidade de manuseio e resultados satisfatórios. Avaliamos remendos arteriais de silicone (polidimetilsiloxano com reforço em poliéster - PDMSr) em comparação com remendos arteriais de PTFEe. Objetivo: O objetivo deste trabalho é comparar, em modelo experimental, em coelhos, os resultados de remendos arteriais feitos em PDMSr com remendos de PTFEe. Materiais e Método: A amostra foi definida em 10 animais que completassem todas as etapas da pesquisa em cada grupo. Os animais foram submetidos à laparotomia mediana e abertura longitudinal da aorta de aproximadamente 8mm, realizando-se o seu fechamento com remendo do grupo selecionado, seguido do fechamento por planos. Os animais foram mantidos em biotério até o 60º PO, quando, então, realizou-se arteriografia de controle, e análise macro e microscópica de peça. Resultados: Para se atingir a amostra desejada, foram necessários 12 procedimentos no grupo PDMSr e 16 no grupo PTFEe. Ocorreram 2 óbitos no grupo PDMSr e 6 no grupo PTFEe. Apesar do número maior de óbitos no grupo PTFEe não houve diferença estatística na sobrevida entre os grupos. Um animal do grupo PDMSr apresentou monoparesia em pata posterior direita e um animal do grupo PTFEe apresentou hérnia incisional. Não houve diferença estatística nas complicações entre os grupos. O tempo operatório foi estatisticamente maior no grupo PTFEe quando comparamos todos os animais, fato que não se repetiu quando excluímos os animais que faleceram...


Introduction: Although good results are reported for various materials for use as patches for arterial closure, as yet none of these is ideal. Therefore, research is continuing into development of a patch that is biocompatible and provides ease of handling, while having satisfactory outcomes. A new silicone arterial patch (polydimethylsiloxane reinforced with polyester fabric, PDMSr) was compared with patches made of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE). Objective: To compare the outcomes between arterial patches made of PDMSr with those made of ePTFE, in an experimental rabbit model. Materials and Method: Rabbits were placed in two groups, and received either PDMSr or ePTFE arterial patches (PDMSr group and ePTFE group, respectively). The animals underwent laparotomy and longitudinal opening of the aorta, which was then closed with the selected patch, followed by suture of all layers. The animals were kept in their cages until the 60th postoperative day, when arteriography, removal of the aorta, and macroscopic and optic and scanning electron microscopic analyzes of the aorta were performed. Ten rabbits from each group that had completed all stages of the research were included in analyses. Results: Twelve procedures were performed in the PDMSr group and 16 in the ePTFE group. There were 2 deaths in the PDMSr group and 6 in the ePTFE group. Despite the higher number of deaths in the ePTFE group, there was no statistical difference in survival rate between the groups. One animal in the PDMSr group developed monoparesis in its right hind paw and 1 animal in the ePTFE group had an incisional hernia. There was no statistical difference in complications between the groups. The operative time was significantly longer in the ePTFE group when all animals were included in analysis, but not when animals that died were excluded...

Résumé

OBJETIVO: Analisar os resultados do tratamento de uma série consecutiva de pacientes submetidos a tratamento endovascular de doenças da aorta torácica. Foram observados o sucesso técnico, o sucesso terapêutico, a morbimortalidade e a taxa de complicações perioperatórias e de reintervenções. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Estudo retrospectivo, realizado em um centro de referência, no período de janeiro de 2010 a julho de 2011, em que foram analisados pacientes submetidos a correção endovascular de doenças da aorta torácica. A população foi dividida em dois grupos: grupo 1 (G1) - aneurismas de aorta torácica verdadeiros, úlcera aórtica e pseudoaneurisma; grupo 2 (G2) - dissecção aórtica tipo B crônica. RESULTADOS: Em um total de 55 pacientes tratados, 29 pertenciam ao G1 e 26, ao G2. As idades médias foram 66,8 ± 10 e 56,4 ± 7 anos, respectivamente. Os sucessos técnico e terapêutico foram, respectivamente, 86,3% e 68,6% no G1 e 100% e 74% no G2. A mortalidade perioperatória foi 10,3% no G1 e 7,6% no G2, com taxa de mortalidade anual de 10,3% no G1 e de 19,3% no G2. As taxas de reintervenções foram 10,3% e 15,3%, respectivamente. CONCLUSÃO: Em nosso estudo, o tratamento endovascular das doenças da aorta torácica demonstrou ser um método viável e associado a aceitáveis taxas de complicações.


OBJECTIVE: To analyze treatment outcomes in a consecutive series of patients submitted to endovascular treatment of thoracic aortic disease. Technical success, therapeutic success, morbimortality, rate of perioperative complications and reinterventions were taken into consideration. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The present retrospective study was developed in a reference center in the period from January 2010 to July 2011, involving patients submitted to endovascular treatment of thoracic aortic disease. The study population was divided into two groups: group 1 (G1) - true thoracic aortic aneurysms, aortic ulcer and pseudoaneurysm; group 2 (G2) - chronic type B aortic dissection. RESULTS: Out of a total of 55 patients, 29 belonged to the G1 and 26 to the G2 group. Mean ages were 66.8 ± 10 and 56.4 ± 7 years, respectively. The technical and therapeutic success reached respectively 86.3% and 68.6% in G1 and 100% and 74% in G2. The perioperative mortality rate was 10.3% in G1 and 19.3% in G2. The reintervention rate was 10.3% in G1 and 15.3% in G2. CONCLUSION: In the present study, the endovascular treatment of thoracic aortic disease proved to be a feasible method associated with acceptable rate of complications.

Résumé

Los traumatismos vasculares son cada vez más frecuentes. El aumento de la violencia ha incrementado de forma gradual las heridas provocadas por armas blancas y proyectiles. Se presenta un caso de traumatismo de arteria humeral, su diagnóstico y el tratamiento aplicado, en un paciente del sexo masculino, de 28 años de edad, politraumatizado por accidente del tránsito, con múltiples fracturas a nivel de la pelvis, clavícula y varias costillas, así como herida de 8 cm en cara interna del brazo derecho, en su tercio superior con gran hematoma. Se constató una herida anfractuosa a nivel de la cara interna del brazo, cianosis de la mano y tercio inferior del antebrazo. A la palpación existía ausencia de los pulsos radial, cubital y humeral, así como frialdad de la mano y disminución de la fuerza muscular. El eco-Doppler arterial evidenció disminución significativa del flujo por debajo de la zona lesionada. Se procedió a la exploración del trayecto vascular encontrándose trombo que ocluía la luz de la arteria humeral con lesión de la íntima. Se realizó trombectomía y colocación de prótesis arterial, con lo que se logró la recuperación de los pulsos y hubo una evolución favorable. El manejo exitoso del traumatismo arterial depende de su diagnóstico precoz y del tratamiento oportuno


Vascular trauma is on the increase. The occurrence of stabbings and gunshot wounds has gradually risen as a result of the spread of violence. A case is presented of humeral artery trauma, its diagnosis and treatment, in a male 28-year-old patient polytraumatized in a traffic accident, with multiple fractures at the level of the pelvis, clavicle and several ribs, and an 8 cm wound on the inner side of the right arm, on its upper third, with a large hematoma. An anfractuous wound was found on the inner side of the arm, as well as cyanosis of the hand and lower third of the forearm. Palpation revealed an absence of radial, cubital and humeral pulse, as well as hand coldness and a decrease in muscular strength. Arterial Doppler echo showed a significant flow decrease below the injured area. Exploration of the vascular tract revealed a thrombus occluding the lumen of the humeral artery with a lesion of the intima. A thrombectomy was performed with placement of an arterial prosthesis, as a result of which pulse was recovered. A favorable evolution followed. Successful management of arterial trauma depends on its early diagnosis and timely treatment.
