RESUMO

Compared to median sternotomy, the potential benefits of minimally invasive single aortic or mitral valve surgery include reduction of blood loss, lower morbidity, and shorter intensive care unit and hospital length of stay. However, there are few reports regarding concomitant aortic and mitral valves minimally invasive surgery via mini-thoracotomy. To the authors knowledge, this is the first report in the Liege area, of a successful minimally invasive right latero-thoracic approach for aortic and mitral valve surgery in a 78-year old woman who presented severe and symptomatic aortic stenosis and mitral insufficiency. In addition to the description of the surgical approach, the authors will summarize the current literature on this approach, as well as the clinical evolution of the patient.


La chirurgie valvulaire isolée, aortique ou mitrale par voie mini-invasive offre de nombreux avantages par rapport à la sternotomie médiane en termes de réduction des pertes sanguines, de diminution de la morbidité et de réduction des durées de séjour aux soins intensifs et hospitalier global. Toutefois, il existe très peu de données dans la littérature sur la chirurgie combinée mitrale et aortique par mini-thoracotomie. à notre connaissance, nous présentons le premier cas de double chirurgie mitrale et aortique réalisée avec succès par abord latéral thoracique droit dans la région liégeoise chez une patiente de 78 ans qui présentait une sténose aortique et une insuffisance mitrale sévères et symptomatiques. En plus d'une description de notre technique chirurgicale, nous résumerons les grandes séries cliniques publiées dans la littérature sur le sujet, ainsi que l'évolution clinique de notre patiente.

RESUMO

Cystic lung diseases present uncommonly and have an undetermined incidence. Cysts result from a broad spectrum of causative mechanisms and diseases leading to variable clinical presentations. The pathogenic mechanisms that can lead to lung cyst formation include infection, neoplastic, systemic, traumatic, genetic and congenital processes. A rigorous, systemic and multidisciplinary approach is advised in the diagnostic workup of these conditions. In this article, we review cystic lung diseases including their presentation and management.

RESUMO

Carcinoid syndrome is the term applied to a constellation of symptoms mediated by a variety of humoral factors produced by the well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumours (NET) localised usually in the gastrointestinal tract and the lungs. This syndrome includes a characteristic triad of diarrhea, flushing and cardiac disease. This cardiopathy occurs in 20 % of the cases and prevails on the right side of the heart. It evolves to a potentially severe heart failure. Therefore, early diagnosis and appropriate cardiac care are crucial to improve the prognosis of these patients. We report a case of a carcinoid syndrome with a trivalvular insufficiency and cardiac decompensation which required surgical replacement of the tricuspid and aortic valves.


Le syndrome carcinoïde est l'éponyme qui englobe une constellation de symptômes médiés par divers facteurs humoraux élaborés par des tumeurs neuroendocrines (NET) bien différenciées, situées le plus souvent au niveau du tube digestif et des poumons. Dans sa forme classique, il comprend une triade caractéristique associant diarrhée, flush cutané et cardiopathie. Cette cardiopathie est présente dans 20 % des cas et prédomine sur le versant droit du coeur. Cette affection peut évoluer vers une insuffisance cardiaque potentiellement sévère. C'est pourquoi un diagnostic et une prise en charge précoce semblent essentiels pour améliorer le pronostic de ces patients. Nous rapportons un cas de syndrome carcinoïde avec une insuffisance trivalvulaire et une décompensation cardiaque ayant nécessité une intervention chirurgicale de remplacement des valves tricuspide et aortique.

RESUMO

There is a continuous growth in the incidence of cardiovascular and thoracic diseases, especially related to the increased life expectancy. Moreover, the quality and efficacy of care for these pathologies are progressing constantly. The evolution of surgery prompts us to develop less aggressive (minimally invasive), although technically more complex, treatment or diagnostic techniques. Pathologies, which until now required heavy surgeries, are managed today in a less invasive way and become therefore accessible to patients even if they are older or in a poor general condition. In this article, we present our experience in the development of the minimal invasive procedures in cardiovascular and thoracic surgery.


Les pathologies cardiovasculaires et thoraciques, au sens large, sont de plus en plus fréquentes, vu l'augmentation de l'espérance de vie, mais elles sont aussi de mieux en mieux prises en charge. En effet, l'évolution de la chirurgie nous incite à développer des techniques de traitement ou de diagnostic moins agressives (mini-invasives) quoique techniquement plus complexes. Des pathologies qui nécessitaient, jusqu'à présent, des chirurgies lourdes se prennent en charge, aujourd'hui, de manière moins invasive et deviennent donc accessibles à des patients en moins bon état général ou de plus en plus âgés. Nous présentons ici notre expérience dans le développement de l'approche mini-invasive en chirurgie cardiovasculaire et thoracique.

RESUMO

Heart transplantation remains undoubtedly the most effective treatment for end-stage heart failure, whatever its cause. Last decade has witnessed significant improvements in terms of morbidity and mortality following heart transplant. The 5-year survival rate is now beyond 70 %. However, the shortage of potential donors limits its use and requires strict criteria before listing a candidate for heart transplantation. Herein, we present a review of current indications and results of the heart transplantation program at the University hospital of Liège.


La transplantation cardiaque demeure, à ce jour sans conteste, le traitement de choix de l'insuffisance cardiaque terminale, quelle qu'en soit l'origine. La dernière décennie a été marquée par une amélioration significative des résultats de la transplantation cardiaque tant en termes de mortalité que de morbidité. La survie globale à 5 ans dépasse maintenant 70 %. Cependant, la pénurie d'organes limite malheureusement son emploi et impose des critères de sélection rigoureux des potentiels candidats. Une revue des indications actuelles ainsi qu'un aperçu des résultats de la transplantation cardiaque au CHU de Liège sont présentés.

RESUMO

Malignant pleural mesothelioma is a rare disease originating from mesothelial cells of the pleura and is related to asbestos exposure. The tumor is generally extended at the time of diagnosis and the treatment consists of a systemic palliative therapy. Radical approach is limited to very selected patients and is performed in expert centers but without validated schema. Radiotherapy alone is mainly used in palliative intent. Platinum-based chemotherapy in association with pemetrexed is the frontline standard of care and provides a 12-month overall survival. The addition of bevacizumab, an antiangiogenic drug, shows an improvement in median survival. To date, there is no second-line treatment approved for this disease and therefore inclusion in trials is recommended. Currently, various studies are investigating target therapy, immunotherapy and intrapleural perioperative treatment.


Le mésothéliome pleural malin est une tumeur rare, issue des cellules mésothéliales de la plèvre et liée à un contact avec l'amiante. Au moment du diagnostic, la maladie est souvent de stade avancé et est prise en charge par un traitement systémique palliatif. Un traitement radical est réservé pour de rares cas très sélectionnés, au sein de centres experts et ce, sans qu'aucun schéma de prise en charge ne soit validé. La radiothérapie seule est essentiellement utilisée à titre palliatif antalgique. Le traitement systémique de référence consiste en une chimiothérapie à base de cisplatine et pemetrexed permettant une survie globale de 12 mois. L'ajout à la chimiothérapie d'une thérapie ciblée anti-angiogénique, le bévacizumab, a permis une amélioration significative de la survie. A ce jour, il n'y a pas de traitement de 2ème ligne validé et il est donc recommandé d'inclure les patients dans des études cliniques. Actuellement, de multiples études évaluent des thérapies ciblées, des immunothérapies et des traitements intrapleuraux peropératoires.

RESUMO

Aortic valve replacement is nowadays a safe procedure with low morbidity and mortality. However, the evolution of surgery requires the development of less invasive techniques. Aortic valve replacement through a right mini-thoracotomy, technically more complicated, offers a lower rate of complications including less postoperative pain and less blood loss and transfusion, with a faster recovery. We report our early experience of aortic valve replacement through a right anterior mini-thoracotomy.


La chirurgie de remplacement valvulaire aortique offre toujours d'excellents résultats avec une morbidité et une mortalité faibles. Cependant, l'évolution de la chirurgie nous incite à développer des techniques mini-invasives. La mini-thoracotomie antérieure droite, pour la chirurgie de remplacement de la valve aortique, techniquement plus complexe, offre de nombreux avantages. Cette technique assure une réduction des pertes sanguines et des douleurs postopératoires, une meilleure fonction respiratoire, un rétablissement plus rapide (durée de séjour hospitalier plus court) et un bénéfice esthétique. Nous rapportons ici notre expérience initiale de remplacement valvulaire aortique par mini-thoracotomie antérieure droite.

RESUMO

Since the first transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in 2002, the paradigm for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis has changed. In the recent past, medical therapy with or without balloon aortic valvuloplasty was the only option for inoperable patients but now, TAVI has become the treatment of choice for these patients and the preferred alternative for high-risk operable patients. Surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) currently remains the gold standard for patients at low operative risk. As randomized trials have demonstrated comparable (or better results with TAVI) between TAVI and SAVR in the high-risk population, there is now a clear trend towards performing TAVI even in intermediate-risk. Nevertheless, there are still questions regarding TAVI involving paravalvular leak, stroke, pacemaker requirements, and durability, which remain to be more definitively answered before TAVI can routinely be performed in lower risk and younger population. Improvements in patient selection, multimodal imaging, and third generation devices have significantly decreased the incidence of TAVI complications. A role for post-procedure antithrombotic or anticoagulant management remains unanswered. Waiting for current studies to provide us with clear answers to these questions, it is the Heart Team's task to determine the optimal treatment for each patient based on risk scores, frailty metrics, comorbidities, patient's preference, and potential for improvement in quality of life.


Depuis la première implantation chez l'homme d'une prothèse aortique via un cathéter percutané en 2002 (TAVI, «Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation¼), nous avons assisté à un changement de paradigme en ce qui concerne le traitement des sténoses aortiques. Dans un passé récent, le traitement médical, avec ou sans valvuloplastie au ballonnet, était la seule option thérapeutique pour les patients inopérables, mais, actuellement, le TAVI s'est imposé comme le traitement de choix pour ces patients et ceux à haut risque chirurgical. Le remplacement valvulaire aortique chirurgical classique reste le traitement de choix pour les patients symptomatiques à faible risque opératoire. Des études randomisées ont démontré des résultats équivalents, voire supérieurs, du TAVI comparé à la chirurgie chez les patients à haut risque et il y a actuellement de solides arguments en faveur de l'approche transcathéter chez les patients à risque intermédiaire. Cependant, avant d'élargir les indications du TAVI aux patients plus jeunes ou à faible risque, certaines questions relatives aux points faibles de cette technique telles les insuffisances paravalvulaires, les complications neurologiques, les implantations de pacemakers et la longévité des prothèses sont en attente de réponses plus précises. L'amélioration de la sélection des patients, de l'imagerie multimodale, les troisièmes générations de prothèses ont permis de réduire considérablement l'incidence des complications liées au TAVI. Il reste encore à définir un protocole efficace de traitement antithrombotique ou anticoagulant en post-procédure. En attendant que les études en cours nous apportent des réponses claires à ces questions, c'est le rôle du «Heart Team¼ de déterminer, au travers d'une discussion collégiale entre experts de différentes disciplines, le traitement de choix pour chaque patient, en tenant compte des scores de risque, de l'évaluation des fonctions cognitives, des comorbidités, des préférences du patient et de l'impact du traitement sur la qualité de vie.

RESUMO

Pulmonary artery aneurysm is a rare and multiform pathology related to multiple etiologies and therefore different pathophysiological mechanisms. Delineating homogenous sub-groups is a pre-requisite to refine medico-surgical management. The case of a giant PAA without pulmonary hypertension but associated to a dysplastic pulmonary valve is reported. This association could be in some instances the result of a congenital anomaly in the development of both the pulmonary valve and the root creating the conditions for further development of a pulmonary artery aneurysm. Whilst minor forms are usually asymptomatic, they can lead to lethal complications in huge sizes and are frequently associated via pulmonary valve insufficiency to right ventricular dysfunction. This specific association is discussed and a diagnostic algorithm for nosologic classification and management is proposed.


L'anévrysme de l'artère pulmonaire est une pathologie rare, qui répond à de multiples étiologies et autant de physiopathologies différentes. L'identification de sous-groupes constituant des entités cliniques homogènes est un prérequis pour préciser la prise en charge médico-chirurgicale optimale. Nous rapportons un cas d'anévrysme géant de l'artère pulmonaire principale, sans hypertension artérielle pulmonaire, mais associé à une dysplasie/dysfonction de la valve pulmonaire. Cette association pourrait être, dans certains cas, congénitale et liée à une anomalie de la morphogénèse de la valve et de la racine pulmonaire, association qui crée les conditions pour le développement d'un anévrysme. Asymptomatiques dans les formes mineures, les anévrysmes pulmonaires peuvent être causes de symptômes ou de complications gravissimes dans les formes très développées et entraînent souvent, par insuffisance pulmonaire, une dysfonction ventriculaire droite. Nous suggérons une classification claire de cette pathologie mal connue et, sur base de la littérature et de notre expérience personnelle, nous proposons un algorithme de prise en charge médico-chirurgicale.

RESUMO

Minimally invasive aortic valve surgery aims at reducing surgical invasiveness whilst preserving the high efficacy of surgical aortic valve replacement. As such it increases the value of the overall procedure. The surgical experience at the ULg is reported and replaced in the context of the pertinent related litterature.


La réalisation de la chirurgie de la valve aortique par une voie d'abord réduite atténue le traumatisme chirurgical subi par le patient, mais doit garantir un geste de qualité équivalente. Au travers de la présentation d'une histoire clinique inscrite dans la routine, nous rapportons l'expérience du service dans ce domaine et nous la confrontons aux données de la littérature. L'approche mini-invasive apporte des avantages supplémentaires par rapport à la chirurgie conventionnelle et s'inscrit dans l'évolution actuelle des procédures interventionnelles.

RESUMO

We here report the case of a stenosis of the CoreValve® system due to reduced mobility of prosthesis cusps for which a surgical replacement of the aortic valve was proposed. The exact mechanism leading to this impaired mobility of the leaflets is yet to be determined. We also underline the fact a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) device can be replaced by a surgical replacement without excessive operative risks despite the patient being initially considered as high-risk.

RESUMO

Already known as the first cause of mortality in men, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is nowadays a major cause of cancer-related death in women. Its approach relies on a thorough locoregional and extra-thoracic assessment allowing a precise staging which not only has prognostic value, but also determines the therapeutic options. This review presents the current multidisciplinary strategy agreement or the treatment of NSCLC.

RESUMO

The prevalence of valvular heart diseases reaches 2.5% in the overall population. Aortic valve replacement is one of the most common surgical procedures. We report the story of a female patient whose aortic mechanical valve, implanted at the age of 54 years at the time of a mitral valve repair surgery, had to be replaced 14 years later, due to the development of a subvalvular pannus narrowing the valvular orifice. We use this clinical story to compare the advantages and disadvantages of repair surgery and valve replacement with a biological or mechanical prosthesis, and summarize the latest evidence for the choice of the most adequate prosthesis for a particular patient's profile.

RESUMO

Paraganglioma of the heart are potentially invasive, highly vascularized tumors for which complete resection may be curative. Derived from the cardiac wall in most instances, resectability can be assessed after integration of the data provided by MRI in T2 sequence, and coronarography. A fully documented case of a large cardiac pheochromocytoma of the left atrium and AV groove is reported and the pertinent literature on the subject is here presented.

RESUMO

Cardiovascular disease is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with Marfan syndrome. The most life threatening complication is aortic root aneurysms leading to aortic dissection or rupture. It can be prevented by regular aortic follow-up and prophylactic aortic surgery. Modern aortic surgery has led to a substantial increase in the life expectancy of these patients. We report two cases of Marfan syndrome with cardiovascular complications. Their management is discussed according to the most recent literature.

RESUMO

Constrictive pericarditis (CP) is a common disease with difficult diagnosis. We report a well-documented case of CP with extended pericardial calcification treated by total pericardiectomy. A brief review of symptoms and signs of CP is presented, as well as additional examination allowing the diagnosis to be confirmed. The differential diagnosis with restictive cardiomyopathy is also discussed.

RESUMO

Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital lung malformation characterized by an abnormal segment of bronchopulmonary tissue supplied by aberrant systemic arteries. Due to the non-specific symptomatology, the diagnosis can be missed. Imaging is the cornerstone of the diagnosis. Complete surgical resection provides the definitive treatment. We report a case of pulmonary sequestration associated with an asymptomatic aspergillosis presenting during adulthood and describe briefly the epidemiology, embryology, histology, imaging and surgical treatment of this congenital abnormality.

RESUMO

Obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a complex pathology. The understanding of its physiopathology and, notably, of the SAM phenomenon (Systolic Anterior Motion), is crucial for all available treatments. Amongst the most efficient therapies, one can cite the septal myectomy and its most recent technical updates, as well as the alcohol septal ablation. The choice between these two methods depends on the general state of the patient, the thickness of the interventricular septum and the coronary anatomy of the patients.

RESUMO

A pleuro-pericardial cyst represents an uncommon form of congenital disease. We relate the case of an initially symptomless female patient presenting with a voluminous mediastinal mass. The fortuitous discovery of an asymptomatic mediastinal mass should always prompt consideration, among others, of the diagnosis of a pleuro-pericardial cyst.
