Establishment skills of a rat model of abdominal heterotopic heart transplantation by single operator / 局解手术学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the operation procudure and notice of establishing a rat model of abdominal heterotopic heart transplantation by single operator,and summarize the detailed skill and experience for beginners.Methods 68 pairs male SD(recipients)/Wistar(donors) rats,preoperative anesthesia for recipients and donors at the same time,8/0 line was preparing for blocking recipients vena cava and abdominal aortic,blocking the branch vessel.Left and right superior vena ligature respectively with hilar,cutting the ascending aorta,perfusion cardioplegia,free pulmonary artery,across transverse sinus of pericardium for pulmonary artery cutting,atrial wash,free donor heart.Choosed appropriate incision of receptor abdominal blood vessels,mattress suture at 6 and 12 points,a single suture for vent gases,continuous suture in artery,single needle in vein,reperfusion after exhaust gas.Recording operation time,HE staining,IL-1β/CD3 immunohistochemistry slice,flow cytometry analysis of CD4+T/CD8+T lymphocytes subsets in the peripheral blood.Results Sixty-eight cases were treated by single operater,the operation time was(58.8±4.5)minutes,artery suture time was(7.6±2.2)minutes,vein suture time was(13.5±4.2)minutes,the total donor heart ischemic time was(31.8±4.5)minutes,the success rate was 88.2％.The rejection reaction was stronger on the third and fifth day after surgery,with high expression of IL-1β/CD3 in cardiac allografts.The CD4+T/CD8+T lymphocytes subsets increased in the peripheral blood at first day after heart transplantation.Conclusion By fully preparation and skillfully operation,establishing a rat model of abdominal heterotopic heart transplantation by single operator has a stable success rate.
