ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the safety and medium-and long-term effects of endovascular stenting,axilloaxillary bypass (AAB),carotid-subclavian bypass (CSB) in patients of subclavian arterial occlusion.Method From 2001 to 2013,311 consecutive patients with subclavian arteriosclerosis obliterans were treated with endovascular stenting (n =191),axilloaxillary bypass (n =96) or carotidsubclavian bypass(n =32).We collected patients' medical data,calculated patency of the graft or stent with life-table method and compared patency between three approaches with Log-rank.Results The incidence of perioperative complications was 4.1% in the stenting group vs.11.5% in AAB group vs.18.7% in CSB group.There was significant statistical differences between the stenting group and bypass group about the incidence of perioperative complications.The primary patency rates at 1,3 and 5 years were 90.3%,84%,81.6% in stenting group vs.95.3%,92.6%,88.9% for AAB group vs.100%,96.4%,96.4% for CSB group.There was significant statistical differences between the stenting group and bypass group about the primary patency rates.Conclusions Both endovascular stenting and extrathoracic surgical bypass are safe and effective treatments for subclavian arteriosclerosis obliterans.However,effect of extrathoracic surgical bypass is more durable in the medium-and long-term.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) combined with carotid artery stent angioplasty (CASA) in treating tandem stenosis of carotid artery. Methods The clinical data of 9 patients with tandem stenosis of carotid artery, who were treated at authors' hospital during the period from January 2013 to October 2014, were retrospectively analyzed. The patients included 7 males and 2 females, with a mean age of (66.0 ±4.2) years. The disease course ranged from 2 months to 36 months, with a mean of 7 months. Clinically, all patients had cerebral ischemia symptoms. Transient ischemia attack was seen in 5 patients and history of cerebral infarction was present in 2 patients. Coronary artery disease was found in 2 patients, hypertension in 6 patients and lower limb ischemia in one patient. After receiving adequate antiplatelet therapy, CEA and CASA were carried out in all patients. Results The technical success rate was 100%, postoperative residual stenosis was less than 30%, no death occurred in perioperative period. After the treatment, the clinical symptoms were improved in all 9 patients;no new stroke or cerebral hemorrhage occurred. After the treatment, 2 patients developed cerebral hyperperfusion-related symptoms such as headache and dizziness, which were much relieved at the time of discharge. The patients were followed up for 4-19 months, with a mean of (10.5±6.2) months. No recurrence of symptoms was observed . In one patient , transcranial Doppler ultrasound performed at 6 months after treatment showed that the carotid artery became moderate restenosis (50%-70%). No death occurred. Conclusion For the treatment of tandem stenosis of carotid artery, CEA combined with CASA is safe and effective, although larger sample and long-term follow-up studies are still needed to further confirm the effect.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the POSSUM scoring system as preoperative risk assessment approaches for lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans (LEASO).Methods A retrospective study was undertaken in 108 patients ( 120 limbs) diagnosed as long segment LEASO from January 2008 to October 2010,in which,67 patients (74 limbs) receiving percutaneous transluminal stent (PTS) treatment were included into PTS group,and 41 patients (46 limbs) undergoing femoral artery to popliteal artery bypass treatment into bypass group.Rutherford classification was used to evaluate degree of chronic ischemia for lower limb and ankle/brachial index (ABI) for the treatment results in these two groups.The score of POSSUM,physiological score and physiological score without age interference were calculated respectively to estimate the risks for operations in two groups.Results The chronic ischemia conditions for two groups were similar (P =0.543 ).Postoperative follow-up was done for 9 - 15 months,there were no difference between two groups for limb salvage ( P =0.556 ) and patency rate ( P =0.632 ).Risk evaluation for patients: POSSUM score for the PTS group (33 ± 7 ) was similar with that of bypass group ( 32 ± 6 ) ( P =0.369 ) ; Physiological score of POSSUM for PTS group ( 24 ± 7 ) was more than that of bypass group ( 22 ±7) (P =0.033) ; Physiological score without age interference in PTS group (22 ±6)was higher than that of bypass group ( 19 ± 6) (P =0.035).Condusious The physiological score of POSSUM could assess the health status of patients with LEASO,which is more useful for pre-vascular surgery evaluations.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate vascular surgery and interventional technique applied in Takayasu's arteritis. Methods Data of 26 patients of Takayasu's arteritis admitted between January 2006 and December 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. The sex ratio(M/F) was 1: 4. 2, age averaged at (27±15)y. There were 16 cases of type Ⅰ , 7 cases of type Ⅱ and 3 cases of type Ⅲ according to Lupi-Herrera classification. 25 patients received surgery including 16 patients undergoing pecutaneous transluminal angioplasty operations, 9 patients doing traditional bypass surgery, and one patient was treated conservatively. Results 23 case-times of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) were performed in 16 patients, including 12 cases of balloon angioplasty and 4 cases of stent angioplasty. Four significantly stenotic and occluded carotid arteries were revascularized successfully in 5 patients. Thrombosis of the carotid artery was found in one patient after balloon angioplasty. There were 4 patients in which repeated PTA treatment up to a total of 11 times were needed to guarantee vessel patency. Open surgery succeeded in 9 patients, and clinical symptoms were relieved in all cases during peri-operative period. 22 patients were followed up for 12 -46 months,one patient died of cerebral hemorrhage 3 months post-operation, one patient was found pseudoaneurysm at anastomotic stoma, and 2 patients suffered from anastomotic restenosis.Conclusions Vascular surgery played important role in the therapy of Takayasu's arteritis. PTA can be used repeatedly. Surgical bypass operation is difficult in technology, and can be used in cases that fail to response to PTA or in patients with severe cerebral ischemia.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the role of transcranial Doppler (TCD) in carotid endarterectomy and the effect of carotid endarterectomy on extracranial carotid artery stenosis.Methods From January 2002 to December 2008, fifty eight patients (40 males and 18 females)with mean age of 64.5 years were treated in our hospital. Of these patients, forty had symptoms of cerebral ischemia, eighteen were asymptomatic. All the patients had 70% and up carotid artery stenosis. Forty one patients underwent simple suture closure of the arterial incision while nine patients had angioplasty with arterial patch (polyester) and eight with autologous great saphenous vein. TCD monitoring was used in the surgery of 32 patients excluding two patients using arterial shunt. Results Surgery was successful in all 58 cases except for deflected tongue-protrusion in five patients after operation, of which three recovered conservatively and two recovered after administration of cortical steroids for two weeks. Cerebral ischemic symptoms improved to a certain degree in all the 40 preoperative symptomatic patients. Cerebral hyperperfusion occurred in five of no TCD-monitoring patients ( 19.2% ), no hyperperfusion was found in TCD-monitored patients. Fifty three patients were followed up for a mean time of 42.5 months. Five patients died and three patients had carotid artery restenosis, of which two underwent PTA and stenting, one is still under surveillance.Conclusions Carotid endarterectomy is a safe and effective procedure for treating extracranial carotid artery stenosis. TCD monitoring is valuable for determining the use of arterial shunt and preventing postoperative cerebral hyperperfusion.

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the long term outcome between traditional arterial bypass and interventional therapy for chronic lower limb ischemia according to the TASC classification. Method A retrospective study was undertaken on 201 cases receiving graft bypass or interventional therapy for CLI (chronic limb ischemia) from December 2005 to December 2008. Result The patency rate at 6 month. 12 month and 24 month after operation by femoral artery stent angioplasty in therapy group (100%, 89.8%, 75%) is higher than that of angioplasty group(82.4%, 62.5%, 35.7%), P <0.05. The 2nd term patency rate(88%) of operation group (24 months after operation) is higher than that of interventional group (70.7%), P<0.05. Conclusion Arterial bypass has higher long term patency rate and is applicable for femoral artery long segment obliterate classified as TASC C, D, while for the short segment femoral artery obliterate classified as TASC A, B interventional therapy especially stenting is an alternative despite of low patency rate.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate surgical treatment of lower limb ischemia due to combination of thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO) and arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO). Methods Clinical data of six patients suffering from lower limb ischemia due to TAO and ASO were retrospectively analyzed. All patients had a history of smoking, and complained of rest pain. Three patients had foot ulcer and one had toe gangrene. Two patients reeeived aortie artery endartereetomy combined with FIFE graft bypass to deep femoral artery and below knee popliteal artery plus saphenous vein graft bypass to tibial artery. One patient received aortic thrombectomy and endarterectomy plus aortofemoral and femoropopliteal PTFE graft bypass. One patient with a history of left graft thrombosis after aorto-bifemoral arterial bypass using PTFE graft before admission underwent left PTFE graft thrombectomy via left groin and left deep femoral artery endarterectomy followed by femoropopliteal arterial bypass. One patient received left common iliac artery endarterectomy plus left profound femoral PTFE graft-left anterior tibial arterial bypass using in situ great saphenous vein graft. One patient received right to left femorofemoral arterial bypass using PTFE graft to left posterior tibial artety bypass using reversed great saphenous vein graft. Results One patient receiving aortoiliac thrombectomy and endarterectomy with aortofemoropopliteotibial arterial bypass suffered from graft thrombosis several hours after operation and emergency thrombectomy with distal posterior tibial arteriovenous fistulization was performed. The rest pain disappeared in 5 patients and partially relieved in one. All the grafts were patent on discharge. The foot ulcer reduced in 3 patients. All the 6 patients were followed up with a mean of 6. 5 months. 3 foot ulcers healed. One patient eventually received below knee amputation due to foot gangrene three months later. Conclusion Although it is difficult to treat combined limb ischemia of TAO and ASO, satisfactory results could be achieved when proper surgical procedure is adopted.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness o f distal arterial bypass for the treatment of severe lower limb ischemia with p oor outflow artery. Method From July 2000 to Dec 2004, we treated 21 cases (21 limbs) of severe lower limb ischemia with poor outflow artery by distal bypass with additional arteriov enous anastomosis at or distal to the distal graft anastomosis. Results Among the 21 cases, one case recei ved reoperation for “void arterial perfusion” distal to the arteriovenous anas tomosis. The operative success rate was 95.2%.The patency rate of graft was 100 % and the healing rate of foot ulcer was 33.3% on discharge. Conclusion Additional areriovenous anastomos is at or distal to the distal graft anastomosis can dramatically increase the pa tency rate of the graft when outflow artery is too poor to guarantee a patent gr afting in the case of severe lower limb ischemia, although long-term effectiven ess needs to be varified.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the efficiency and safety of infrainguinal arterial bypass in diabetic ischemia of the lower extremities. Method Eighty-two consecutive patients undergoing lower extremity arterial reconstruction from 2002 to 2005 were divided into diabetes group (DM) and nondiabetes group ( NDM ) . Graft patency, limb salvage, and perioperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results There were 82 patients receiving 86 grafts, 44 grafts (51. 2% ) in patients with diabetes (DM group) and 42 (48. 8% ) in nondiabetic patients (NDM group). Average age of the DM group was (68?10) years, vs. (63?12) years of NDM group (P=0.025). In-hospital perioperative mortality was 3. 7% ( DM group 4. 8% vs. NDM 2. 5% ,P = 1. 000). Cumulative primary and secondary graft patency in 4 year was 44% in DM group and 64% in NDM group, P =0. 112 and 69% in DM group, 66% in NDM group, P = 0. 083) , respectively. The 4 year overall limb salvage rate was not statistically defferent ( DM group, 68%; NDM group, 66%; P =0.114). Conclusions Diabetes mellitus does not influence perioperative mortality, graft patency, or limb salvage rates after lower extremity arterial bypass.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate endoluminal stent-grafting for diseases of supra-renal abdominal aorta. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 42 cases with supra-renal aorta lesions from July 2000 to December 2004, including 32 cases of dissection aorta aneurysm, 7 cases of thoracic aortic aneurysm, and 3 cases of thoracic pseudoaneurysm. ResultsOne died in perioperative period (2.4%). Endoleaks occurred in 8 cases (19.1%) after the deployment of the first stent. Among them, leaks were sealed in 3 cases by balloon dilatation, the remaining 2 cases were treated by the placement of additional stenting-graft, 3 cases were treated conservatively. Patients were followed-up for 1~51 months, with a mean of 16 months. One (2.4%) died during the follow-up. Endoleak disappeared in 3 cases. ConclusionMinimally invasive endoluminal grafting is a relatively safe and effective means for the treatment of high-risk aortic lesions, though the long-term result remains to be proved.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect and safety of autologous transplantation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) for the treatment of lower limb ischemia. Methods Eighty-three limbs in 53 patients with lower limb ischemia were treated by autologous transplantation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from June 2004 to October 2005. Of the patients, there were 71 diabetic ischemic limbs in 44 cases, 6 arteriosclerotic occlusion limbs in 5 cases and 6 thromboangiitis obliterans in 4 cases. Symptoms included a feeling of pain in 80. 7% (67/83) limbs, cold in 72.3% (60/83) limbs and numb in 67.5% (56/83) limbs. Results There was no mortality. The outcome was evaluated after 2 months of transplantation. The pain-relieve rate, improvement rate of cold feeling and numbness was 83. 6% , 91. 7% and 75. 0% , respectively. Ankle / brachial index ( ABI) increased in 39. 8% (33/83) limbs. TcPO2 of the ischemic legs was obviously elevated in 89. 2% (74/83 ) limbs. Ulceration area reduced in 29. 2% limbs. Digital subtraction angiography ( DSA) was performed in 44. 6% (37 limbs of 23 patients) with collateral circulation increased in 72. 9% limbs. 15 limbs (18. 1% ) were amputated including 5 limbs with lowered level of amputation. Conclusion Autologous transplantation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells is a simple, safe, and effective method to treat patients with lower limb ischemia in which arterial reconstruction is impossible.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the outcome of composite sequential bypass in treatment of chronic lower extremity ischemia.Methods The clinical data of 25 patients with chronic lower limb ischemia who underwent composite sequential bypass reconstruction,in a 3-year period,were retropectively analyzed.The composite vessel consisted of PTFE vassular prosthesis and autologous vein.The proximal end of PTFE was anastomosed to the common femoral artery,and the distal end to the isolated popliteal artery.The autologous vein exited from the lower end of PTFE vessel and was anastomosed to the tibial or peroneal artery in the leg.Results The venous reconstructions had the inflow taken from the distal PTFE artery(above knee in 5 and below knee in 20).The outflow involved the peroneal artery in 12(48%),the posterior tibial artery in 8(32%),and the anterior tibial artery in 5(20%).Primary patency,secondary patency and limb salvage were 61%,68% and 73% at 3 year,respectively.Conclusions Composite sequential reconstruction using an isolated popliteal segment as supporting point for the distal reconstruction has high long-term patency rate and good effect of limb savage,it is an acceptable option in patients presenting with serious limb ischemia without enough venous conduit for distal bypass.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of arterial bypass for subclavian artery occlusive disease. MethodsIn this study, 30 patients with subclavian artery occlusive disease received arterial bypass from Jan 1994 to Jan 2004. Occlusive lesions were documented preoperatively by arteriography. Patency was determined during follow up by Duplex ultrasound. ResultAll 30 patients undergoing bypass procedure were with blood pressure differences of less than 10mmHg between the treated and the healthy arms. The ratio of healthy/diseased side of the mean blood pressure index increased from 0 66?0 11 preoperatively to 0 99?0 09 postoperatively( P

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of early inflamation on the efficacy of gene(LacZ gene)(transfer) to vein graft by adenovirus vector.Methods The liquid containing adenovirus vector was infused through external carotid vein and the segment of carotid vein was resected.The veins were inflated naturally.After 30min incubation,the veins were transplanted into carotid artery in experimental group,and the(circulation) was restored in control group.The veins with transferred gene were collected on day 3,day 14 and day 21.The mark gene expression in the veins was studied with X-Gal stain and activities of ?-galactase were measured.ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expressions were observed by immunohistochemistry stain in transgenic veins.Results The activities of ?-galactase in mark gene expressed for 14 days was decreased and in 21 day nearly disappearred.VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 expression upregulated after day 3 in transplanted veins and there was leucocyte infiltration and shedding of endothelial cells with endothelial disruption.On the other hand,there was no expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 in control group veins and integrity of endothelium was intact.The positive ECs expressed mark gene was obviously reduced in transplanted veins compared to control group.But the number of positive SMCs were not significently different between to two groups.(Conclusions) The inflammation of vein grafts in early stage of transplantation may be the cause of(endotheliocyte) damage and is related to rapid depression of gene expression.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate a bypass surgery for the treatment of critical lower limb ischemia. MethodsFourty-five limbs in 39 patients with single outflow artery underwent arterial bypass graft, including femoropopliteal artificial graft to single outflow artery with autograft in 21 limbs (46.7%) and popliteal artery to calf vessel in 10 limbs (22.2%). Results Among 39 patients, one died of respiratory failure 5 days post-op (death rate 2.6%); one suffered from artificial graft occlusion (2.6%). The patency rate of graft was 100% on discharge. Healing rate of foot ulcer was 30%. Conclusions It is difficult to reconstruct blood flow for critical ischemic limb with single outflow artery, but good result is still expected by distal lower limb bypass graft. Distal bypass can result in a limb salvage or lowering of amputation level, providing a better nutritional support for the healing of foot ulcer.
