This experiment was to study the blood supply of diffcrent types of skin flaps and the revascularization of the host region. The types of skin flaps used in this cxpcriment were the axial pattern flap and the random pattern flap on the back of rabbite. Forty New Zealand rabbits were divided into 5 groups at random. In gathering the data For assessment, besides the local changes such as color, swelling of the flaps, the area of survival of flaps after division of the pedicles, the tests used to observe the postoperative changes included the isotope (99mTc) clearance test, intravenous orescein test, tissue transparent method by perfusion of the flap vessels with Chengdu ink and histologie study. The following conclusions cule be drawn: The complete revaseularization of random pattern flap occurred at 10 days after operation and that of xaial pattern flap was 14 days, the random pattern flaps had a quicker rate of revascularization. It was suggested that the flap ischemia was a factor which enhanced revascularization.
Objective To investigate the effect of arterilization of veins in treatment of extensive arterial oblitery ischemia of limbs . Methods Eighteen lower limbs and six upper limbs with symptoms of chronic ischemia were diagnosed as having extensive occlusion of the major arteries by color Doppler Ultrasonic Scanning and DSA. According to the level of occlusion, the involved limbs were treated by arterilization of veins in one stage. Results During hospitalization, one lower limb was amputated. Seventeen lower limbs and six upper limbs were followed up for 3 to 26 months. Among them, one lower limb was amputated for necrosis of toes after 3 months; the outcomes of the others were satisfactory. By Doppler scanning, the arterial blood flow was observed after operation. Conclusion Arterilization of veins in extensive arterial oblitery ischemia of limbs is a simple and effective treatment with good result.
Objective To investigate the etiology, diagnosis, revascularization of upper l imb ischemia and the compl ications. Methods From March 2003 to February 2008, 72 cases of upper l imb ischemia were treated. There were 44males and 28 females, aged 19-90 years old (median 63 years old). The duration of the disease was 1 hour to 2 years. All cases had symptoms of l imb ischemia such as paleness, coldness, paralysis. According to individual condition, 72 patients accepted revascularizations including thromboembolectomy, reconstruction after traumatic injuries, pseudoaneurysm excision and angioplasty, balloon dilatation and stent implant, arterial repair, patch, vascular prosthesis or vein bypass/transplantation, and l igation or coarctation of fistula. Results Sixty patients (83.3%) recovered well after operation. Re-occlusion following thromboemboletomy was found in 6 patients (8.3%). And there were 4 patients (5.6%) with l imbs disturbance and muscles contracture and 2 patients (2.8%) with compartment syndrome in this series. The affected l imb had to be amputated in 2 patients (2.8%). And 1 patient (1.4%) died of cerebral hemorrhage because of anticoagulation 3 days after operation. All patients were followed up 1-6 years (mean 52 months) after operation. Four patients recurred and got improved after retreatments. The others got a good result with normal skin color and temperature, restoration of the radial and ulnar pulses, normal saturation of blood oxygen of finger ti p (gt; 90%) and patent blood flow of affected arteries was shown by color Doppler ultrasound. Conclusion The study indicates that identifying the etiology of upper l imb ischemia before operation and active revascularizations consistent with different causes are the key to treat the upper l imb ischemia.
Hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) combines the advantages of minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCAB) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and avoids its relative shortcomings, which has received particular attention in recent years. HCR seems to have become the third revascularization strategy for multi-vessel disease in coronary heart diseases. However, the clinical researches on HCR are still limited. This article will systematically review the comparison of HCR with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and PCI, the results of HCR in specific patients, and the clinical results of different HCR strategies.
Objective To summarize the essential of perioperative therapy and improve the prognosis of coronary artery bypass grafting （CABG） and transmyocardial laser revascularization （TMLR） through analyzing 1405 patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. Methods From May 1997 to January 2006, 1 405 patients were treated in our hospital. On-pump CABG were performed in 825 patients, single CABG were performed in 666 patients, CABG with cardiac valvular operation in 98 patients, CABG with cardiac ventricular aneurysm resection in 55 patients, CABG with ventricular septal defect repairment in 2 patients; CABG with left atrium gelatinous tumor resection in 2 patients, CABG with ascending aorta repairment in 1 patient, and mediastinal septum tumor resection in 1 patient. Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting （OPCAB） were performed in 500 patients; single TMLR were performed in 30 patients, CABG＋TMLR were performed in 50 patients. Results The number of bridge vessel was 2.9±1.0. Forty-two patients（3.0%） died of bleeding, myocardial infarction, low cardiac output syndrome, renal failure, multiple organ failure（MOF） and so on. Various complications were occurred in 70 patients（5.0%）, including bleeding, low cardiac output syndrome, myocardial infarction, renal failure and so on. All of them were recovered after treatment. There were 1 177 patients of angina in grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ （CCS） before operation, 1 154 of them （98.0%） changed in grade 0-Ⅰ （CCS） postoperatively. There were 857 patients （62.9%） in follow-up for 8.3±2.9 months postoperatively. There was no angina in 788 patients（91.9%） 6 months after surgery. The ultrasonic graphic showed that left ventricular ejection fraction was 0.66±0.10 and raised 7.9% than that before operation. The quality of life was better than before. Conclusion CABG has become the most potent routine operation in the therapy of coronary artery disease. It can extend the applications of CABG and improve the operative prognosis, if the indications are correctly mastered and the perioperative management are enhanced.
To investigate the value of plasma placental growth factor (PlGF) in percutaneous coronary angioplasty and stent implantation. Methods From May 2006 to March 2007, 61 patients (53 males and 8 females, mean age61 years) and 28 normal controls were included. All patients present with acute chest pain and underwent coronary angiography, the lesion severity of coronary arteries was assessed by Gensini coronary scoring system. Of them, 26 patients having serious coronary lesion underwent (percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, PTCA) and stent implantation. Cardiovascular events were recorded after 30 days. Plasma PlGF was determined by ELISA. Results According to the angiography, the patients could be divided into CAD group (n=45) and Non- CAD group (n=16). Plasma PlGF level in CAD group was significantly higher than that in Non-CAD group and control group [(10.70 ± 0.49) ng/L vs (4.53 ± 0.64) ng/L vs (3.64 ± 0.36) ng/L, P lt; 0.001)], and there was no significant difference between the non-CAD group and control group (P gt; 0.05). A significant positive correlation was found between Gensini coronary score and plasma PlGF level (r=0.918, P lt; 0.01). Moreover, patients with cardiovascular events had a higher PlGF level than those without cardiovascular events after PTCA and stent implantation [(13.98 ± 3.39) ng/L vs (7.25 ± 2.96) ng/L, P lt; 0.01)]. Conclusion PlGF level has diagnostic value in patients with acute chest pain. The measurement of plasma PlGF might be helpful for early diagnosis of coronary artery disease. Patients with higher plasma PlGF level may have more severe coronary lesion. PlGF may be one of predictors for cardiovascular events after PCI.
ObjectiveTo compare the superiority of total arterial revascularization in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) complicated with left ventricular dysfunction. MethodsThis retrospective study included the patients who were diagnosed with CAD and the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of ≤40% and underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) at our hospital from January 2016 to July 2019. The patients were divided into two groups according to the different types of bypass vessels: a total arterial revascularization group (TAR group) and a conventional group (a CON group). The clinical data were compared between the two groups to explore the incidence of important complications and evaluate the safety of total arterial revascularization and its protective effect on cardiac function. Results Finally 75 patients were enrolled including 52 males and 23 females with a mean age of (61.58±7.93) years. There were 35 patients in the TAR group and 40 patients in the CON group. The operation time and the drainage volume at 24 hours after operation in the TAR group were longer or more than those in the CON group (P<0.001), but there was no statistical difference in hospital stay, postoperative complications (such as respiratory failure, mediastinal infection, renal failure), intra-aortic balloon pump or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation use rate (P>0.05). After 2 years of follow-up, compared with the CON group, the cardiac function of the TAR group was significantly improved, the LVEF was higher, the left ventricular end diastolic diameter was reduced, and the graft stenosis rate was lower (all P<0.05). Conclusion Total arterial revascularization is a safe and feasible surgical method, which is helpful to improve the cardiac function and improve the quality of life.
