One hundred and twenty-eight cases of peripheral aneurysm were reported.Traumatic prsucdoaneursyms(87cases)dominated and aneurysm in lower extremities(68 cases)consisted of most the cases.Rupture of aneurysm and massive kaemomhage is the most serious complications(22 cases in the report).Therefore,operative treatment should be performed soon after the diagnosis is ascertained.Resteration of normal blood flow should be the aim.Intracystic repairation is indicated in pseudoaneurysm with part of the vascular wall invaded.Artificial graft may be indicated for aneurysm of the middle and large artery,and autovenous graft for the smaler arteries.Aneurysm may be resected if the procedure is easy to perform or there is severe inflammation around the aneurysm.Proper postoperative drainage is important.General heparinization during blockade of local circulation is also important in case of vascular grafting. We concluded that proper selection of operative procedure is essential for better prognosis.
ObjectiveTo understand risk factors of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture and the latest progress.MethodThe domestic and foreign related literatures on risk factors affecting AAA rupture were retrieved and reviewed.ResultsBesides some definite risk factors of AAA rupture, including age, gender, hypertension, smoking, family history, complications (such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, etc.), the biomechanical factor was the crucial factor of AAA rupture, including the aortic compliance, aortic wall peak value of pressure, aortic wall calcification, and hemodynamics. The latest imaging methods such as the high resolution ultrasound, function and molecular imaging, and phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging could provide technical supports for the prediction of AAA rupture.ConclusionsThere are many risk factors affecting AAA rupture. Clinicians might prevent and make individualize treatment for AAA rupture according to its risk factors, and risks of AAA rupture could be more accurately assessed with help of new medical imaging examination.
Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (RAAA). Methods Between January 1996 and December 2009, 14 patients with RAAA were treated. There were 13 males and 1 female with an average age of 65 years (range, 50-82 years). The main cl inical manifestations were abdominal pain and/or back pain. Ten cases had low blood pressure or shock. All cases were accurately diagnosed with CT, Doppler ultrasonography,or operation. The aneurysm diameter was from 4.5 cm to 8.0 cm. Eleven cases were treated by conventional operation, 1 by endovascular aortic repair, 1 by conservative treatment, and 1 case died after admission treatment. Results Perioperative death occurred in 6 cases (mortal ity rate was 50%) in 12 surgical patients. One case died after conservative treatment. The overall mortal ity rate was 57.14% (8/14). The causes of death included circulatory failure in 2 cases and multiple organ failure in 4 cases. The other 6 cases were cured. The postoperative hospital ization days were 12 to 34 days (14 days on average). A total of 4 cases were followed up 11 to 40 months without related compl ication. Conclusion Surgical treatment is still a main method to treat RAAA. Early diagnosis, appropriate resuscitation, and urgent surgical repair are crucial to reduce the mortal ity rate of RAAA.
ObjectiveTo retrospective summarize the experience of endovascular repair and open surgery in the treatment of renal aneurysms in our single center.MethodsClinical data of 24 patients with renal aneurysm treated in our hospital from August 2012 to May 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. Nine patients undergoing surgical intervention were categorized as the open operation group, and ten patients who received endovascular repair were classified as the endovascular repair group. To compare and analyze the results of the two groups. Five patients who had refused surgery therapy will be analyzed separately.ResultsTwenty-four patients with seventeen females (70.8%) and seven males (29.2%) were enrolled in this study and nineteen patients with twenty-three aneurysms got repaired successfully. The endovascular repair group had shorter hospital stay compared with the open operation group [median: 10.5 (P25 6.3, P75 15.0) d vs. 21.0 (P25 17.0, P75 27.5) d]. One patient in the open operation group developed renal artery stenosis at 11 months after surgery and underwent reoperation by repair by successful stent placement. There were no other significant postoperative complications occurred in the two groups. No abnormal enlargement or rupture of the aneurysms were observed during the follow-up period in 5 unoperated patients.ConclusionsBoth open surgery and endovascular repair are effective means of treating renal artery aneurysms. Once the renal aneurysm ruptures, serious consequences will occur. Once a renal aneurysm is diagnosed, regardless of the size of the aneurysm, active surgical treatment is recommend.
目的探讨胰周动脉瘤破裂出血的诊治。方法回顾3例胰周动脉瘤破裂出血患者的诊治过程,并结合相关文献进行分析。 结果3例患者胰周动脉瘤破裂出血并失血性休克,其中1例术前经CT检查获得诊断,2例术前未能诊断。2例经手术止血治愈,分别随访1年和1年2个月,未见复发及相关并发症; 1例经抢救无效死亡。结论胰周动脉瘤破裂出血病情发展迅速,术前诊断困难,尽快液体复苏及积极手术探查止血是挽救生命的关键。
