RESUMO
AIM: To define the risk factors of complications which are followed by re-operations in patients with cardiac and pericardial wounds and to prevent these complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective and prospective analysis of 1072 victims with cardiac and pericardial injuries for 35 years was performed. Overall mortality was 17.2%. 98 patients died during surgery. Postoperative bleeding was observed in 38 (3.9%) cases. RESULTS: In 28 cases re-operations were performed for bleeding-related complications. Indications for re-thoracotomy were one-time drainage from pleural cavity over 500 ml or bleeding rate over 100 ml per hour for 4 hours. Prevention of postoperative bleeding in case of cardiac and pericardial wounds was developed on basis of analysis of these observations. CONCLUSION: Risk factors of complications requiring re-operation are cardiomyopathy of different etiology, technical and tactical errors during primary intervention and hypocoagulation with massive blood loss. Prevention of these complications includes careful heart wound closure, comprehensive intraoperative control, correction of hemostatic system.

It was analyzed the medical reports of 596 victims with thoracic injuries including 360 cases with following conventional therapeutic approach and 236 patients who underwent videothoracoscopy. We estimated condition severity in case of injuries of thoracic wall, lungs, pericardium and heart. Hemodynamic disorders were estimated according to Allgower-Burri shock index. Intrapleural bleeding was calculated using volume of hemothorax and time before injury and operation. Severity of physiological damages was determined using RTS criterion, anatomic--using ISS criterion. We estimated possibility for videothoracoscopy in patients with conventional therapeutic approach comparing severity of injuries, severity of condition in both groups and volume of surgery. Retrospective analysis revealed possibility of videothoracoscopy in 86.7% of victims with pulmonary injury, in 83.3% with bleeding at the muscular vessels of thoracic wall, in 40.3% with intercostal vessels injury, in 31.2% with heart injury, in 27.3% with damage of pericardium and in 18.8% with internal thoracic vessels injury. Our investigation revealed that videothoracoscopy may be used more widely in case of thoracic injury.
