Abstract: Objective To investigate videoassisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and percutaneous catheter occlusion (PCO) in interruption of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), in order to achieve minimally invasive surgical injuries and better clinical results. Methods From November 1995 to September 2009, 312 cases of PDA were treated in Fujian provincial hospital, among whom 252 patients were interrupted with VATS(VATS group) and 60 patients with PCO technique(PCO group). For the VATS group, there were 78 males and 174 females aged from 7 d to 31 years old (9.16±8.91 years), while there were 17 males and 43 females aged from 4 to 57 years old (25.55±14.10 years) in the PCO group. We used titanium clip to interrupt PDA under videoassisted thoracoscope for patients in the VATS group, and adopted Amplatzer method for patients in the PCO group. The clinical results, complications and hospital cost in the two groups were compared in this study. Results In the VATS group, all the PDA were successfully interrupted with no residual shunt. In the PCO group, 5% (3/60) of the patients had minor residual shunt after the procedure. No mortality occurred in both groups. Time of the procedure and hospital stay in the PCO group were shorter than that in the VATS group (70.20±31.20 min vs. 112.50±16.30 min, t=6.344,P=0.002; and 4.70±2.20 d vs. 6.50±2.80 d, t=3.241, P=0.022, respectively). However, the hospital cost for each patient in the PCO group was much higher than that in the VATS group (23 222.00±4 333.40 yuan RMB vs. 8 904.50±2 634.60 yuan RMB,t=25.360, P=0.000). Conclusion Compared with PCO, VATS in interrupting PDA can achieved not only excellent clinical results, especially in the newborn and baby cases, but also very satisfying cost which is just a little more than one third of the PCO cost.
ObjectiveTo compare the efficacy of percutaneous closure guided by transthoracic echocardiography or angiography in the treatment of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).MethodsLiterature databases such as CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Database, PubMed, Cochrane Library were searched for collecting published literatures on percutaneous closure for PDA guided by transthoracic echocardiography and angiography, retrieval time limit was up to April 2019. Two evaluators independently screened the literature, extracted the data and evaluated the quality according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The collected data were analyzed by RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsEight studies were included finally, with a total sample size of 681 cases. Meta-analysis showed that there was no statistical difference in the operative success rate between the echocardiography group and the angiography group (RR=0.99, 95%CI 0.97- 1.01, P=0.40). Postoperative complications were less in the echocardiography group than those in the angiography group (RR=0.26, 95%CI 0.11-0.59, P=0.001).The operation time (P<0.000 01), amount of intraoperative radiation (P<0.000 01), exposure time (P<0.000 01), hospitalization days (P<0.000 01) and hospitalization costs (P<0.000 01) in the echocardiography group were less or shorter than those in the angiography group, and the difference was statistically different.ConclusionCompared with angiography-guided, transthoracic echocardiography-guided percutaneous closure for PDA is a safe and effective method with less trauma, lower cost, and can replace angiography as one of the guiding methods for PDA.
ObjectiveTo compare the surgical results of ultrasound-guided percutaneous antegrade or retrograde therapy in the treatment of patent ductus arteriosus.MethodsThe clinical data of 166 patients (44 males and 122 females) who underwent transthoracic echocardiography guided closure of patent ductus arteriosus in Xinjiang Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease Hospital from February 2016 to August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and the patients were divided into two groups: an antegrade group (n=60) and a retrograde group (n=106). The operation time, success rate, bed rest time, postoperative complications and surgical safety were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe immediate success rate of the two groups was 100.0%. Compared with the retrograde group, the antegrade group had shorter time of bed rest and hospital stay, but longer operation time. In the retrograde group, there were 2 patients of complications, including occlusive device falling off to pulmonary artery 12 hours after the operation in 1 patient, and false arterial tumor in 1 patient. Both groups were followed up for 3-18 months, and there was no death in the whole group.ConclusionIt is safe and effective to block patent ductus arteriosus under the guidance of transthoracic echocardiography. Although the operation process of anterior occlusion of patent ductus arteriosus is slightly complex and the operation time is long, the indication is wide, and the bed rest time is short. Therefore it can be used as the first choice for patent ductus arteriosus occlusion.
