  • Da Vinci robot system in the surgical treatment of mediastinal lesions: A case control study

    Objective To summarize the clinical data about mediastinal lesions, then to analyze the treatment effect of da Vinci robot system in the surgical treatment of mediastinal lesions. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 49 patients with mediastinal lesions in our hospital between January 2016 and October 2017. These patients were divided into two groups including a da Vinci robot group and a video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) group according to the selection of the treatments. There were 25 patients with 14 males and 11 females at age of 56.5±17.9 years in the da Vinci group and 24 patient with 15 males and 11 females at age of 53.0±17.8 years in the VATS group. Results There was no statistical difference in surgery time between the two groups (t=–0.365, P=0.681). Less intraoperative blood loss (t=–2.569, P<0.001), less postoperative drainage amount within three days after surgery (t=–6.325, P=0.045), shorter period of bearing drainage tubes after surgery (t=–1.687, P=0.024), shorter hospital stays (t=–3.689, P=0.021), lower visual analogue scale (VAS) scores of postoperative 48 hours (t=–7.214, P=0.014) with a statistical difference in the da Vinci robot group compared with the VATS group. Conclusion The da Vinci robot system is safe and efficient in the treatment of mediastinal lesions compared with video-assisted thoracoscopic approach.

  • Status and clinical significance of thrombocytopenia after cardiac surgery in adults

    ObjectiveTo observe the status of thrombocytopenia in adult patients after cardiac surgery, and to explore its mechanism and clinical significance.MethodsRetrospective analysis of 240 patients after cardiac surgery in the 2nd ward of surgical intensive care unit (ICU) of Fuwai Hospital from May to June 2020 was conducted, including 137 males and 103 females with a mean age of 56.0±12.0 years. According to postoperative platelet status, the patients were divided into a thrombocytopenia group and a non-thrombocytopenia group. The clinical baseline data, preoperative platelet count, postoperative minimum platelet count, volume of drainage, transfusion of blood products, mechanical ventilator time, ICU stay, hospital stay and complications were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe mean preoperative platelet count was 199×109/L±55×109/L and the mean postoperative platelet nadir was 109×109/L±37×109/L, with a mean reduction rate of 44.1%±15.8%. The platelet count of 235 (97.9%) patients after operation was lower than that before operation. Among them, 98 (40.8%) patients had platelet count<100×109/L, 46 (19.2%)<75×109/L and 8 (3.3%)<50×109/L. Results of multivariable logistic analysis showed that cardiopulmonary bypass time>120 min (OR=2.576, 95%CI 1.313-5.053, P<0.05) was an independent risk factor for postoperative thrombocytopenia. Mechanical ventilator time (25.5±16.8 h vs. 17.3±8.5 h, P<0.05), ICU stay (85.2±54.7 h vs. 60.0±33.9 h, P<0.05) and hospital stay (15.8±6.2 d vs. 14.2±3.9 d, P<0.05) were longer in the thrombocytopenia group (<100×109/L) compared with the non-thrombocytopenia group (>100×109/L). More drainage volume [685 (510, 930) mL vs. 560 (440, 790) mL, P<0.05] and complications occurred in the thrombocytopenia group. In multivariable analysis, thrombocytopenia was significantly inversely associated with prolonged ICU stay (OR=2.993, 95%CI 1.622-5.524, P<0.05).ConclusionThrombocytopenia occurs commonly after adult cardiac surgery, and the incidence in different types of surgery varies. Postoperative thrombocytopenia is related to the prolonged recovery. Extracorporeal circulation may be a contributing factor to thrombocytopenia, and further studies investigating mechanism and strategies to reduce postoperative thrombocytopenia are needed.
