Objective To compare the clinic results between offpump left ventricular(LV) aneurysm plication repair and onpump LV linear aneurysmectomy for LV dyskinetic aneurysm (DA), and to improve the curative effect of aneurysm. [WTHZ]Methods From September 2003 to September 2007, 32 patients with DA located in the anterior wall or apex of LV were operated. There were 23 male and 9 female aged 4670 years with a mean age of 63 years. According to the procedure with or without cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB), 32 patients were divided into two groups: Offpump group (n=17), with the size of DA represented 25%-37% of left cavity. Patients in this group underwent offpump LV aneurysm plication repair; Onpump group (n=15), with the size of DA represented 27%-40% of left cavity. Patients in this group underwent onpump LV linear aneurysmectomy. Coronary artery bypass grafting was the concomitant procedure in both groups. The clinic results were compared and evaluated via indexes such as left ventricular volume, systolic function etc which were determined by echocardiography. [WTHZ]Results No operation death was found in both groups. In offpump group, there was no perioperative complication. Postoperative cardiac function classification (NYHA) improved significantly (1.0±0.8 grade vs. 2.9±0.3 grade，P=0.001), left ventricular ejection fraction（LVEF） improved significantly (41.0%±4.5% vs. 36.4%±4.8%，P=0.035), and left ventricular [CM(159mm]endsystolic volume index (LVESVI) reduced significantly (52.6±27.7 ml/m2 vs. 79.7±21.4 ml/m2, P=0.003) compared with that before operation. Seventeen cases were followed up, and the followup time was 12-53 months with a mean time of 29 months. No death was found during following up. One case was reoperated 1 year after operation because of severe mitral valve regurgitation. One case had congestive heart failure 3 years after operation with a LVEF of 31% and still in observation. The other cases were fine. In onpump group, there were 3 cases had perioperative complications (Two with neurological complications and one with respiratory failure). Postoperative cardiac function classification (NYHA) improved significantly (1.0±0.6 grade vs. 3.1±0.9 grade，P=0.001). LVEF improved significantly (42.3%±3.2% vs. 35.6%±6.5%, P=0.023). LVESVI reduced obviously (49.3±22.6 ml/m2 vs. 81.3±25.0 ml/m2, P=0.003) compared with that before operation. Fifteen cases were followed up and the followup time was 1260 months with a mean time of 35 months. No death was found during following up and the clinic results were good. No significant difference was observed between the two groups (Pgt;0.05). [WTHZ]Conclusion Offpump LV aneurysm plication repair for LV dyskinetic aneurysm can effectively reduce the volume of LV, improve LVEF and cause less perioperative complications. It is a safe and effective procedure. Its longterm prognosis needs further observation.
ObjectiveTo investigate the surgical methods and efficacy of myocardial infarction combined with ventricular septal perforation.MethodsThe clinical data of 60 patients with myocardial infarction combined with ventricular septal perforation admitted to the Department of Cardiac Surgery, Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, from 2009 to 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 39 males and 21 females, aged 63.3±8.3 years.ResultsAmong the 60 patients, 43 (71.7%) patients were perforated in the apex, 11 (18.3%) in the posterior septum and 6 (10.0%) in the anterior septum. There were 24 (40.0%) patients of single coronary artery disease. Fourteen (23.3%) patients received intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation before surgery. The waiting time from ventricular septal perforation to surgery was 48.3 (3-217) d. All patients underwent ventricular septal perforation repair, among whom 53 (88.3%) patients received ventricular aneurysm closure or resection, and 49 (81.7%) patients received coronary artery bypass graft with an average of 2 distal anastomoses during the same period. Perioperative complications in the hospital included 8 (13.3%) deaths, 8 (13.3%) heart failure, 5 (8.3%) ventricular fibrillation, 3 (5.0%) pericardial tamponade, and 11 (18.3%) secondary thoracotomy and 11 (18.3%) residual shunt. Except for 8 patients who died in the hospital, the other 52 cured and discharged patients were followed up. The median follow-up time was 4.9 years. The 2-year and 5-year survival rate of the patients was 95.8%, and the 8-year survival rate was 89.0%. Major adverse cardiovascular events incidence was 19.2%, including 3 (5.8%) deaths, 5 (9.6%) heart failure, 2 (3.8%) myocardial infarction, and 4 (7.7%) cerebrovascular events.ConclusionFor patients with ventricular septal perforation after myocardial infarction, surgery is an effective treatment method. Although the perioperative mortality rate is high, satisfactory long-term results can be achieved by carefully choosing the operation timing and methods.
Objective To investigate the early and long-outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients with coronary artery disease(CAD)(age≤45 years). Methods Data of 596 adult CAD patients (include AMI and Angina) who underwent CABG in our hospital were collected retrospectively from May 2010 to October 2018. In an AMI group, 234 were male patients with an average age of 41.59±3.79 years; 26 were female patients with an average age of 41.64±3.03 years. In an angina group, 280 were male patients with an average age of 42.19±2.90 years; 56 were female patients with an average age of 41.54±3.52 years. Preoperative baseline variables, perioperative mortality, major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) were compared between two group. Results There was no significant difference in all preoperative variables. Seven patients were died and the hospital mortality rate was 1.23% (1.54% vs. 0.89%, P=0.477). The complications including reoperation for bleeding, cerebral infarction, renal failure and atrial fibrillation arrhythmia were without significant difference between two group (P>0.05). The intensive care unit stay duration (30.66±27.46 h vs. 23.96±15.11 h), intubation duration (22.54±22.31 h vs. 18.64±11.81 h) and hospitalization costs (97 186±33 741¥ vs. 90 081±24 537¥, P=0.003) were greater in the AMI group. The hospital mortality rate and complications rate were without significant difference between STEMI (ST segment elevated myocardial infarction) and NSTEMI (non-ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction) subgroups (P>0.05). The follow-up rate was 92.6% (546 patients) and the follow-up time was 4 (0.5 to 8.5) years. All cause-mortality rate was 3.85% (21 patients), and freedom MACCE was 72.2%. The freedom from MACCE, recurred angina and cerebral infarction were without significant difference, but AMI was associated with higher rate of PCI procedure. Conclusion CABG procedure in CAD patients under 45 years accompanied AMI is safety and reliable both in early and the long-term outcomes.
