RESUMO

The incidence of subglottic stenosis after pediatric cardiac surgery is around 0.57-2.3%. An 11-year-old female patient, who underwent modified Blalock-Taussig shunt surgery at the age of 4 months, was interned for total repair of tetralogy of Fallot. Subglottic stenosis was revealed in preoperative examination with indirect laryngoscopy. Total repair of tetralogy of Fallot was performed under cardiopulmonary bypass support. While the patient was still on cardiopulmonary bypass support, subglottic stenosis was treated by holmium laser successfully without a complication. In suitable patients, cardiac and endoscopic laryngeal operations can be successfully and safely performed under cardiopulmonary bypass with a holmium laser.

RESUMO

AL type amyloidosis is a systemic disease characterized by the accumulation of amyloid fibrils that can affect many organs such as the skin, gastrointestinal tract, heart, lungs, liver, and kidney. The most frequently involved organ in amyloidosis is the kidney, but cardiac amyloidosis with the poor prognosis is amyloid organ involvement. In this study, we present the treatment of a 40-year-old female patient with acute Budd-Chiari syndrome and very severe proteinuria with sequential liver, kidney, and autologous stem cell transplant after the diagnosis of systemic amyloidosis. To reduce the effects of massive proteinuria and very severe hypoalbuminemia, bilateral renal artery embolization was performed first. After the evaluation of the patient, she underwent liver transplant from a deceased donor, and then kidney transplant was performed from her son 1 month later. Afterward, the patient was discharged without any problems and underwent chemotherapy and stem cell transplant for primary AL amyloidosis. She was followed up without any problem in terms of liver, kidney, and stem cell at the 24th postoperative month. This case shows that autologous stem cell transplant after kidney and liver transplant may be a good treatment option in a selected patient with stem cell involvement diagnosed as having AL amyloidosis.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: In this study, we aimed to investigate the rates and causes of incisional hernia that developed in the postoperative follow-up of patients who underwent liver transplantation. MATERIAL AND METHOD: The results of patients who underwent LT by using three different incisions at the Istanbul Yeni Yüzyil University Gaziosmanpasa Hospital organ transplant center between January 2015 and December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into Chevron (group-1), reverse T (group-2), and J incisions (group-3) and hernia development rates were examined. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in terms of incisional hernia in groups 1 and 2 according to the incision type (p = .723). Incisional hernia rate was significantly lower in the J incision group (p < .001). When the factors that increase the development of hernia in all LT patients were examined, it was seen that male gender (p = .021), high BMI rate (p = .003), postoperative bleeding (p = .018), and wound infection (p = .039) caused a significant increase in risk. CONCLUSION: The incision, which is made during liver transplant, is important for the development of hernia. The J incision has a low hernia development rate without causing access problems. Regardless of the incision, high BMI index, male gender, postoperative bleeding, and wound infection increase the development of incisional hernia in liver transplant patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The reconstruction of the hepatic artery (HA) is the most complex step in living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) owing to the artery's smaller diameter and the increased risk for HA-related complications. In this study, we presented our HA anastomosis technique for LDLT, which employed interrupted sutures using magnifying loupes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Since January 2019, we retrospectively analyzed 179 LDLTs that were performed at our center. HA anastomosis was performed under a loupes magnifier (2.5 or 4.5 × ) by the same surgeon. RESULTS: There were 65 female and 114 male recipients with a mean age of 41.6 ± 21.6 years. Of the recipients, 34 were children. HA thrombosis (HAT) was seen in 3 recipients (1.67%; 1 child and 2 adults) in this series. HAT occurred on the third, sixth, and seventh days after LDLT. HAT was successfully treated with interventional radiologic technique. All recipients are still alive with a patent HA. CONCLUSION: The use of magnifying surgical loupes and interrupted sutures to perform HA reconstruction is safe, feasible, and yields a low rate of HAT. Also, endovascular treatment can be used safely for treatment of HAT within the first week after LDLT with a high success rate and is not associated with major complications.

RESUMO

The increasing number of abdominal aortic grafts due to abdominal aortic aneurysms has caused secondary aortoenteric fistulas to be seen more frequently as a cause of gastrointestinal bleeding. High index of suspicion plays a significant role in the diagnosis in patients having clinical symptoms ranging from fecal occult blood to massive gastrointestinal bleeding, accompanied by hemorrhagic shock. A 65-year-old male patient developed two secondary aortoenteric fistulas consecutively. The first one was aortic graft-jejunal and the second one was aortic graft-duodenal in a short period. Secondary aortoenteric fistula developed after aortobifemoral bypass. The patient underwent graft revision and jejunal repair. He was reoperated three months later due to the newly developed aortic graft-duodenal fistula. The duodenal defect was closed, and an extra-anatomic aortoiliac bypass was performed to avoid graft-related enteric fistula. The patient was discharged uneventfully and was free from any complication at nine months after surgery.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To compare the results of sutureless aortic valve replacement (AVR) with the conventional method. STUDY DESIGN: A case-control study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY: Cardiovascular Surgery Unit, Istanbul Yeni Yuzyil University, Gaziosmanpasa Hospital, Turkey, from December 2014 to December 2019. METHODOLOGY: Patients undergoing AVR were enrolled. The inclusion criteria were severe symptomatic aortic valve disease, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II or higher, and age >55 years. Perioperative clinical and echocardiographic outcomes were assessed in all patients. RESULTS: Ninety-one patients (45 women, 46 men) underwent AVR (49 sutureless, 42 conventional). The average age was 73.08 ± 7.54 years in the sutureless group and 66.26±8.63 years in the conventional group. The mean cross-clamp and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) times were 72.86 ± 34.09 and 91.88 ± 36.98 minutes, respectively, in the former; and 104.96 ± 41.64 and 119.81 ± 40.45 minutes, respectively, in the latter. In the sutureless group, 30 (61.2%) patients underwent additional procedures such as CABG, mitral interventions, tricuspid repair, ascending aortic surgery, and myxoma removal. Preoperative peak and mean pressure gradients decreased from 76 and 48 mmHg to 16 and 9 mmHg postoperatively in the sutureless group; and from 70.9 and 44 mmHg to 24 and 12 mmHg in the conventional group. Paravalvular leak and permanent pacemaker requirement due to AV-block rates were 6.1%. The mean ICU stay was 3.69±6.75 and 2.31±1.80 days, the mean hospital stay was 10.08±6.56 and 8.62±3.28 days, and the 30-day overall mortality rates were 8.2% and 4.8% in the sutureless and conventional groups, respectively.   Conclusion: Sutureless AVR has advantages of shorter cross-clamp time, reduced CPB duration, and postoperative aortic gradients. However, there was no advantage in terms of mortality or hospital stay. Its benefits could be more prominent in complex cases or minimally invasive surgery. Key Words: Sutureless valves, Aortic valve stenosis, Valve replacement.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Despite recent advances, lymphoceles are the most frequent complications following renal transplantation (RT), with an incidence of 0.6% to 51%. In this study, we present risk factors, treatments, and outcomes for lymphoceles after RT at our center. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Since January 2018, 461 RTs were performed at our center. Nine recipients were excluded. The remaining 452 RTs were analyzed retrospectively. Recipients were divided into 2 groups: a lymphocele group (n = 29) and a nonlymphocele group (n = 423). Lymphoceles were diagnosed by ultrasound. Statistical analyses were made using the SPSS 15 software program. RESULTS: Twenty-nine (6.4%) of the 452 recipients developed lymphoceles. Seven of these 29 (24.1%) recipients were asymptomatic. The most common symptom was hydronephrosis (34.4%). Percutaneous drainage was performed in 21 recipients; sclerotherapy with percutaneous drainage was used in the remaining 8. In 5 (17.2%) recipients, there was a recurrence of lymphoceles. There were significant differences with respect to age (50-65 years; P = .016), use of a drainage catheter (P = .044), and polycystic kidney diseases (P = .049). CONCLUSION: Lymphoceles can be treated successfully using the percutaneous drainage technique alone or in combination with povidone iodine. Drainage use, polycystic kidney disease, and age (50-65 years) were established as risk factors for lymphocele development.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Urological complications after renal transplantation (RT), including urine leaks, remain the most common type of surgical complications in the early post-transplant period. In this study we evaluated 324 consecutive RTs recipients in whom Haberal's corner-saving anastomosis technique was used for ureteroneocystostomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Since January 2018, 461 RTs were performed at our center. Haberal's corner-saving anastomosis technique was used in 324 of these 461 RTs and the effectiveness of the technique was analyzed retrospectively. There were 115 female patients and 209 male patients, with a mean age of 42.1 ± 13.9 years. The most common etiology resulting in RT was hypertension among the recipients. RESULTS: We observed 8 (2.4%) ureteral complications in 7 recipients as follows: ureteral stenosis in 2 recipients (0.6%), anastomotic leaks in 1 (0.3%), concomitant leak-stenosis in 1 (0.3%), and vesicoureteral reflux in 3 (0.9%). Six complications were treated with interventional radiological techniques and 2 were treated surgically. There was no graft and patient loss in the event of urological complications. CONCLUSION: Because of the low complication rate, we believe that Haberal's corner-saving ureteral anastomosis technique is a safe method for performing a ureteroneocystostomy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Patch augmentation of the aortic arch as well as construction of an unobstructed pulmonary blood supply are two important surgical targets in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. In this report, we aimed to present our preliminary results with a combination of two relatively new approaches in Norwood-Sano procedure. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed in 10 newborns with the diagnosis of hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Our surgical approach incorporated the interposition of a 6.0-mm ring-reinforced tube graft with the "dunked technique" between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery; and reconstruction of the aortic arch using a curved porcine pericardial patch which is specifically designed for the Norwood procedure. RESULTS: Mean age and body weight at the time of the Sano-Norwood operation were 7.3 ± 2.4 days and 3164 ± 406 g, respectively. We encountered 1 (10%) early and 1 (10%) late mortality. All of the patients were discharged without any residual gradients at the aortic arch. Four out of eight patients underwent stage 2 bidirectional cavopulmonary anastomosis at a median age of 5 months (range, 4-6 months). Pericardial patch augmentation of the left pulmonary artery was deemed mandatory in one of our patients. CONCLUSIONS: The dunked technique of interposing a ring-reinforced conduit between the right ventricle and pulmonary artery along with the utilization of a curved porcine pericardial patch specifically designed for aortic arch reconstruction are promising modifications of the Sano-Norwood procedure in newborns with hypoplastic left heart syndrome.

RESUMO

One of the main issues in kidney transplantation is the optimal functional preservation of the organ until its transplantation into the appropriate recipient. Despite intensive efforts, the functional preservation period remains limited to hours. During this time, as a result of cellular injury, various proteins, peptides, and other molecules are released by the organ into the preservation medium. In this study, we used proteomic techniques to analyze the protein profiles of preservation solutions in which organs had been preserved prior to their transplantation. Samples were obtained from the preservation solutions of 25 deceased donor kidneys scheduled for transplantation. The protein profiles of the solutions were analyzed using 2D gel electrophoresis/MALDI-TOF and LC-MS/MS. We identified and quantified 206 proteins and peptides belonging to 139 different groups. Of these, 111 proteins groups were belonging to kidney tissues. This study used proteomic techniques to analyze the protein profiles of organ preservation solutions. These findings will contribute to the development of improved preservation solutions to effectively protect organs for transplantation.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The harmful effects of ischaemia-reperfusion on skeletal muscle during extremity surgery can be diminished by using medications or ischaemic preconditioning METHODS: Twenty patients undergoing lower-limb surgery with use of a tourniquet for at least 1 hour were included in the study and randomised into two groups: a control group with only tourniquet application (T group; n=10); and an ischaemic preconditioning plus tourniquet group (IP-T group; n=10). Blood samples were obtained from the femoral vein of the relevant extremity before tourniquet application (baseline), immediately after tourniquet deflation (TD), at 10 minutes after the tourniquet deflation (TD(10min)) in the T group and additionally after ischaemic preconditioning in the IP-T group. Venous blood pH, partial oxygen pressure (P(vO2)), partial carbon dioxide pressure (P(vCO2)), lactate, potassium, sodium and glucose levels were analysed using a blood gas analyser. Plasma thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) level, an index of lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress, was measured. Heart rate, noninvasive mean arterial pressure (MAP) and spontaneous breathing rate (SBR) were recorded at baseline, at TD, and TD(1min), TD(5min) and TD(10min). RESULTS: MAP decreased and SBR increased significantly at TD, TD(1min) and TD(5min) compared with baseline, and venous blood TBARS level significantly increased at TD and TD(10min) compared with baseline in the T group (all P<0.05). No significant changes were observed in the IP-T group. Ischaemic preconditioning caused a rise in PvO2 and a decrease in venous blood pH, P(vCO2), and lactate levels, which was significant compared with baseline (P<0.05) CONCLUSION: Ischaemic preconditioning attenuates haemodynamic response and lipid peroxidation during lower-extremity surgery with unilateral tourniquet application.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In this prospective double-blind study, intubation conditions were compared at 90 s following two different low doses of rocuronium during remifentanil and propofol anesthesia in children undergoing ambulatory procedures. METHODS: Forty-four children (ASA I-II, aged 3-12 years) undergoing day case ENT surgery were premedicated with midazolam 0.5 mg x kg(-1). Following atropine 10 microg x kg(-1), remifentanil infusion 0.5 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1) was started. After 60 s, anesthesia was induced with propofol 2.5 mg x kg(-1). Immediately after a bolus dose of propofol, the children received rocuronium doses of 0.15 mg x kg(-1) (group I, n = 22) or 0.3 mg x kg(-1) (group II, n = 22) in a randomized manner, after which an infusion of propofol 6 mg x kg(-1) h(-1) was added to the infusion of remifentanil 0.5 microg x kg(-1) min(-1) for maintenance of anesthesia. Intubating conditions were evaluated 90 s after rocuronium administration applying the Copenhagen Scoring System which included components of laryngoscopy, vocal cord movement and reaction to intubation. Hemodynamic values were recorded at predetermined time intervals. RESULTS: Excellent, good and poor intubation conditions were 18.2, 40.9 and 40.9% in group I and 40.9, 54.5 and 4.5% in group II. Clinically acceptable intubating conditions (excellent and good) were significantly higher in group II (95.5%) than in group I (59.1%) (P = 0.004). Mean values of heart rate and blood pressure did not differ significantly between groups. No children required any intervention for hemodynamic instability and/or muscle rigidity. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that 0.3 mg x kg(-1) of rocuronium may be a better low dose than 0.15 mg x kg(-1) of rocuronium for clinically acceptable intubating conditions in pediatric ambulatory surgery during remifentanil-propofol-based anesthesia at the doses used in the study.
