Over the past 20 years, transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair (TEER) has become an important treatment option for patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) who are at high surgical risk. Initially, several landmark clinical studies established the basis of TEER for primary and secondary MR, but they only involved clinically stable patients with appropriate mitral valve anatomy. With the increasing experience of interventional therapy, the iteration of equipment and the improvement of intraoperative imaging technology, the scope of use of TEER has been continuously expanded, and its indications have been continuously expanded to more complex mitral valve lesions and clinical situations. Therefore, in clinical practice, selecting the appropriate device according to the individual anatomical characteristics of the patient can minimize MR and complications, thereby optimizing immediate and long-term prognosis. This article mainly introduces the pathogenesis and related mechanisms of MR, the main TEER devices and their clinical evidence, the limitations of TEER, and the future development direction.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel wire for echo-guiding percutaneous atrial septal defect (ASD) closure.MethodsTwenty sheep were randomly divided into two groups, an experimental group and a control group (n=10 in each group). In both groups, an animal model of ASD was established by transthoracic balloon dilatation, and percutaneous closure of atrial septal defect was finished only by echography guiding. The total procedure time, passing time (time needed for the guide wire to enter the left atrium), frequency of delivery sheath dropping into right atrium, frequency of arrhythmias and rate of complications were compared between the two groups.ResultsASD model was uneventfully established in all animals. ASD devices were successfully implanted in all sheep. Compared with the control group, the experimental group had significantly less mean procedure time and mean passing time, lower frequency of guide wire dropping into right atrium and frequency of atrial and ventricular premature contractions, respectively (15.36±4.86 min vs. 25.82±7.85 min, 2.69±0.82 min vs. 5.58±3.34 min, 0% vs. 40.0%, 4.41±2.61 vs. 9.60±3.68, 0.75±0.36 vs. 1.34±0.68; all P<0.05) . Two groups did not have serious complications within postoperative one week.ConclusionThe novel wire system is not only safe and effective in the treatment of ASD occlusion, but also easy to operate.
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.
ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and safety of hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (MVCAD).MethodsA total of 50 patients with MVCAD who underwent HCR technique in our heart center from May 2016 to April 2019 were included in this study (a HCR group), including 38 patients who underwent two-stage HCR and 12 patients one-stop HCR. There were 39 males and 11 females, with an average age of 62.4 (46-82) years. Another 482 patients who underwent conventional median incision under off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) at the same period were selected as control (an OPCAB group), including 392 males and 90 females, with an average age of 64.2 (48-84) years. The safety and feasibility of HCR were evaluated and compared with conventional OPCAB technique.ResultsThere was no perioperative death in both groups. Compared with the OPCAB, HCR was associated with shorter operation time, less chest tube drainage, lower requirement of blood transfusion, shorter mechanical ventilation time and shorter postoperative intensive care unit (ICU) stay (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in the incidence of major adverse cardiac or cerebrovascular events during the follow-up of 6 to 36 months between the two groups.ConclusionHCR provides favorable short and mid-term outcomes for selected patients with MVCAD compared with conventional OPCAB.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of robot-assisted percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) in the elderly. Methods The clinical data of 90 elderly patients with OVCF treated in Sichuan Science City Hospital between June 2019 and March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into robot-assisted group (40 cases) and C-arm-assisted group (50 cases). The pre- and post-operative Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score, pre- and post-operative Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score, intraoperative cement leakage, intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, operation time, and the loss of hemoglobin were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results The incidence of intraoperative cement leakage (5% vs. 20%), intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency [(18.3±3.2) vs. (41.3±7.8) times], operation time [(28.3±4.6) vs. (43.2±7.3) min] and the loss of hemoglobin [(7.2±2.0) vs. (15.2±4.4) g/L] of the robot-assisted group were less than those of the C-arm-assisted group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the decrease of VAS score or ODI score (3.63±1.64 vs. 3.40±1.65, P>0.05; 50.70±4.95 vs. 52.10±6.69, P>0.05). Conclusions Robot-assisted PVP for elderly patients with OVCF can significantly reduce the risk of cement leakage, shorten the operation time, reduce the intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, and reduce the surgical hidden blood loss. It can be used for clinical promotion and application.
ObjectiveTo compare the effectiveness of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) combined with minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) and Intertan intramedullary nail fixation by closed reduction in the treatment of AO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) type 31-A3.3 intertrochanteric fracture with incomplete lateral wall.MethodsThe clinical data of 54 patients with AO/OTA type 31-A3.3 intertrochanteric fracture who met the selection criteria and were admitted between January 2012 and January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. According to different surgical methods, the patients were divided into group A (24 cases with lateral wall reconstruction by MIPPO combined with PFNA internal fixation) and group B (30 cases with Intertan intramedullary nail fixation by closed reduction only). There was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05) in terms of gender, age, side of injury, cause of injury, and combined medical diseases. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, time to weight-bearing, fracture healing time, and postoperative complications were recorded and compared between the two groups. The tip apex distance (TAD) was measured at 2 days, 2 months, and 1 year after operation. At 12 months after operation, the hip joint function was evaluated according to Harris scoring standard, and the rate of conformity (Harris score were more than 70) was calculated.ResultsThe wounds of the two groups healed by first intention, without infection, skin deformity, and other incision complications. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss of group A were significantly more than those of group B, and the time to weight-bearing and fracture healing were significantly shorter than those of group B (P<0.05). The patients were followed up 9-20 months (mean, 14.7 months) in group A and 9-19 months (mean, 13.8 months) in group B. There was no significant difference in TAD values at 2 days, 2 months, and 1 year after operation between the two groups (P<0.05), and there was also no significant difference in TAD values between the postoperative time points (P>0.05). There was 1 case of infection, 1 case of screw withdrawal, 2 cases of screw removal, and 1 case of bone nonunion in group B, the incidence of complications was 16.7%; there was only 1 case of screw withdrawal combined with screw blade withdrawal in group A, the incidence of complications was 4.2%; there was no significant difference between the two groups (χ2=2.109, P=0.146). At 12 months after operation, the Harris scores of pain, function, malunion, range of motion, and total score in group A were significantly better than those in group B (P<0.05). The rate of conformity of group A was 95.83% (23/24) and 76.67% (23/30) in group B, and the difference between the two groups was significant (χ2=3.881, P=0.049).ConclusionFor the AO/OTA type 31-A3.3 intertrochanteric fracture with incomplete lateral wall, compared with the closed reduction Intertan intramedullary nail fixation, the incidence of internal fixation failure after MIPPO reconstruction with lateral wall combined with PFNA fixation was lower, the time to weight-bearing was earlier, and the postoperative function was better.
Objective To investigate the diagnosis and effectiveness of improved percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for patients with thoracolumbar metastatic tumors, who could not tolerate anesthesia and open operation. Methods Between September 2009 and September 2010, 16 patients with thoracolumbar metastatic tumors underwent improved PKP. Of 16 patients, 7 were male and 9 were female with an average age of 64.5 years (range, 60-73 years). All patients had vertebralmetastasis tumor. The disease duration was 3-6 months with an average of 4 months. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score was 8.9 ± 0.8. No spinal cord compression and nerve root compression was observed. The involved vertebrae included T7 in 1 case, T8 in 1, T12 in 1, L2 in 2, L3 in 2, L4 in 3, T1, 2 in 1, T3, 4 in 1, T7, 8 in 1, T11, 12 in 1, T7-L1 in 1, and T12-L4 in 1. Nine patients had vertebral compression fracture with a vertebral compression rate below 75%. Results All patients were successfully performed PKP. There was no serious adverse reactions in cardiopulmonary and brain vascular systems and no perioperative death. The biopsy results showed that all were metastatic adenocarcinoma. All patients were followed up 9-18 months mean, 14 months). Complete pain rel ief was achieved in 14 cases and partial rel ief in 2 cases 6 months after operation according to World Health Organization criterion, with a pain-rel ief rate of 87.5%. The VAS score was 1.8 ± 0.6 at 6 months postoperatively, showing significant difference when compared with the preoperative score (P lt; 0.05). Two patients had cement leakages in 3 vertebrae with no symptoms at 6 months postoperatively. During follow-up, 12 patients died and the others survived with tumor. Conclusion For patients with thoracolumbar metastatic tumors who can not tolerate anesthesia and open operation, improved PKP has the advantages such as minimal invasion, high diagnostic rate, and early improvement of pain in the biopsy and treatment. It can improve patient’s qual ity of l ife in the combination of radiotherapy or chemotherapy.
ObjectiveTo compare the effectiveness and safety of electromagnetic navigation-guided localization and CT-guided percutaneous localization for pulmonary nodules.MethodsThe literature published from the inception to January 2021 about the comparison between electromagnetic navigation-guided localization and CT-guided percutaneous localization for pulmonary nodules in the PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EMbase, Chinese Wanfang database and CNKI database was searched. RevMan (version 5.4) software was used for meta-analysis. Nonrandomized controlled trials were evaluated using methodological index for nonrandomized studies (MINORS).ResultsA total of six retrospective studies (567 patients) were included in this meta-analysis. MINORS scores of all studies were all 17 points and above. There were 317 patients in the CT-guided percutaneous localization group and 250 patients in the electromagnetic navigation-guided localization group. The complication rate of the CT-guided percutaneous localization group was significantly higher than that in the electromagnetic navigation-guided localization group (OR=11.08, 95%CI 3.35 to 36.65, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the success rate of localization (OR=0.48, 95%CI 0.16 to 1.48, P=0.20), localization time (MD=0.30, 95%CI –6.16 to 6.77, P=0.93) or nodule diameter (MD=–0.07, 95%CI –0.19 to 0.06, P=0.29) between the two groups.ConclusionElectromagnetic navigation can be used as an effective preoperative positioning method for pulmonary nodules, which has the advantage of lower complication rate compared with the traditional CT positioning method.
Objective To measure the anatomical parameters related to lumbar unilateral transverse process-pedicle percutaneous vertebral augmentation, and to assess the feasibility and safety of the approach. Methods A total of 300 lumbar vertebral bodies of 60 patients were randomly selected, and vertebral augmentation were simulated 600 times on X-ray and CT image with unilateral conventional transpedicle approach (control group) and unilateral transverse process-pedicle approach (experimental group). The distance between the entry point and the midline of the vertebral body, the puncture inner inclination angle, the safe range of the puncture inner inclination angle, and the puncture success rate were measured and compared between the left and right with the same approach, and between the two approaches. Results The distance between the entry point and the midline gradually increased from L1 to L5 on both sides in the 2 groups. In the control group, the right sides distance of L1 and L2 was much longer than the left sides, and the right sides distance of L1, L2, and L5 was much longer than the left sides in the experimental group (P<0.05); the distance of the experimental group between the entry point and the midline was much longer than the control group regardless of the sides from L1 to L5 (P<0.05). In the experimental group, the right maximum inner inclination angle from L1 to L5, the right middle inner inclination angle from L1 to L5, and the right minimum inner inclination angle from L1, L2, L4, L5 were significantly larger than the left side (P<0.05). The maximum inner inclination angle and the middle inner inclination angle presented increased tendency, the tendency of minimum inner inclination angle was ambiguous, however, the all inner inclination angles were much larger than those in control group among the different lumbar levels(P<0.05). There was no significant difference of the safe range of the puncture inner inclination angle between 2 sides in 2 groups at L1 to L5 (P<0.05); the safe range angle in experimental group at L5 was significantly smaller than that in control group (P<0.05). The difference in total puncture success rate of all lumbar levels was significant between the experimental group and the control group (χ2=172.252, P=0.000); the puncture success rates of the experimental group were higher than those in the control group form L1 to L4 (P<0.05), but no significant difference was found in the puncture success rate between 2 groups at L5 (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with the unilateral conventional transpedicle approach, the entry point of the unilateral transverse process-pedicle approach is localized outside, the puncture inclination angle is wider, and the puncture success rate is higher. It shows that the unilateral transverse process-pedicle approach is safer and more reliable than the unilateral conventional transpedicle approach.
