ObjectiveTo investigate the safety and effectiveness of the multi-artery graf tstrategy for coronary bypass (MICS-CABG) with small incision in the left chest, and to provide experience for the promotion of this technique.MethodsThe clinical data of 64 patients with MICS-CABG in Department of Cardiac Surgery of Peking University Third Hospital from December 2015 to November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 54 males and 10 females, aged 36-77 (61.1±8.7) years. The left lateral thoracic incision (5-8 cm) was made through the 5th intercostal incision, and the operation was performed under off-pump CABG. With the help of the chest wall suspension device and the heart fixator, the proximal anastomosis of the ascending aorta, anastomosis of the target vessels of the left anterior descending (LAD), left circumflex (LCX) and right coronary artery (RCA) systems were completed. The number of grafts was 2-4 (2.3±0.5) including 2 grafts in 45 patients, 3 grafts in 17 patients and 4 grafts in 2 patients. Three patients were treated with percutaneous intervention (PCI) hybridization and 62 patients were treated with total artery bypass graft. Coronary angiography was performed within 7 days after the operation to evaluate the graft patency rate. The incidence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) was recorded in the follow-up. The MACCE rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method.ResultsNone of the patients was transferred to thoracotomy and no intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was used during the operation. Incision infection was in 1 patient and reoperation in 2 patients (all were postoperative hemorrhage). Within 30 days after surgery, MACCE occurred in 1 patient, including 1 patient of non-fatal myocardial infarction. The overall patency rate of angiography bypass was 96.2%, and the patency rate of anterior descending branch bypass was 98.2%. Follow-up was performed from 12 to 60 months (median follow-up time was 28 months). The loss rate was 7.8% (5/64). The incidence of MACCE was 84.9% (95%CI 79.5%-90.3%).ConclusionThe MICS-CABG can achieve completed re-vascularization and totally artery-CABG and the short-term and medium-term clinical results of the operation are good.
Vitrectomy is an important treatment for vitreoretinal diseases. After half a century of innovation and development, it has made a breakthrough from open type to micro-incision surgery. Minimally invasive vitrectomy has the advantages of wide indications and high cutting efficiency, which greatly improves the safety and efficacy of surgery, and minimizes the occurrence of trauma and complications during surgery. At present, with the development of surgical microscope system, ophthalmic microsurgery robot and other equipment, and the development and application of new artificial vitreous materials, vitrectomy is developing toward minimally invasive, accurate and intelligent development. The further development of vitrectomy innovative technology in the field of ophthalmology is hopeful in the future, so that clinicians can achieve the best surgical results with the minimum damage, and bring better light to patients.
ObjectiveTo create a new scleral buckling surgery using noncontact wide-angle viewing system and 23-gauge intraocular illumination for the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), and to evaluate its safety and effectiveness. MethodsA scleral buckling surgery using noncontact wide-angle viewing system and 23-gauge intraocular illumination was performed in 6 eyes of 6 patients with RRD, including 2 males and 4 females. The mean age was 51 years old with a range from 23 to 66 years old. Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) were diagnosed of grade B in all 6 eyes. Duration of retinal detachments until surgery was 5.8 days with a range from 2 to 13 days. The mean preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) was 12 mmHg with a range from 9 to 15 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). A 23-gauge optic fiber was used to provide an intraocular illumination. Fully examination of the ocular fundus and cryoretinopexy of retinal breaks was performed under a noncontact wide-angle viewing system. Subretinal fluid drainage through the sclerotomy and buckling procedure were performed under the operating microscope. Intravitreal injection of sterile air bubble was performed in 4 eyes. Antibiotic eye drops was applied in all eyes postoperatively, and all the eyes were followed up for at least 6 months. ResultsRetinal reattachment was achieved in all eyes, and the conjunctiva healed well. The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) increased in all eyes. The mean postoperative IOP was 15 mmHg with a range from 12 to 19 mmHg. No complications were found intra and postoperatively. ConclusionsThis new scleral buckling surgery using noncontact wide-angle viewing system and 23-gauge intraocular illumination for RRD is safe and effective. Advantages such as higher successful rate, less complication, shorter operating time, and less discomfort of patients were showed comparing with the previous scleral buckling surgery using indirect ophthalmoscope.
Objective To explore the short-term therapeutic effect of mini-incision common vertebral pedicle screw internal fixation on thoracoclumbar fractures without neurological injury. Methods The data of 61 patients with thoracolumbar fractures without neurological injury treated with mini-incision common vertebral pedicle screw internal fixation (the mini-incision group, n=32) or percutaneous pedicle screw fixation (the percutaneous group, n=29) from February 2014 to January 2016 was retrospectively collected and analyzed. Total incision length, operation time, blood loss, fluoroscopy times, postoperative bed rest time, hospitalization costs, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score, Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), vertebral Cobb angle of correction, and accuracy rate of screw placement were compared between the two groups. Results All the patients were followed up for 6 to 24 months with a mean of 13.4 months. There were no complications such as incision infection and neurovascular injury except for 2 screws breakage in one patient in the percutaneous group. In the mini-incision group, the average total incision length was longer than that in the percutaneous group [(7.33±0.53) vs. (6.38±0.44) cm], while the average operation time was shorter than that in the percutaneous group [(62.66±4.75) vs. (72.93±5.09) minutes]; the differences were statistically significant (P<0.001). In the mini-incision group, the average frequency of fluoroscopy was fewer [(5.63±0.61)vs. (19.07±1.60) times] and the average hospitalization costs was lower [(23.3±1.5) thousand yuan vs. (39.5±1.6) thousand yuan] than those in the than that in the percutaneous group; the differences were statistically significant (P<0.001). No significant difference was found in blood loss, postoperative bed rest time, VAS score, ODI, vertebral Cobb angle of correction, and accuracy rate of screw placement between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Mini-incision common vertebral pedicle screw internal fixation for thoracoclumbar fractures without neurological injury has the advantages of short operation time, less fluoroscopy times, low hospitalization costs and high fixation strength. It may obtain a good short-term effectiveness.

Methods A total of 56 cases of SAP were randomly divided into early minimally invasive peritoneal lavage group (lavage group, n=28) and conventional treatment group (control group, n=28). The patients were given comprehensive treatment, including somatostatin, acid suppression, anti-infection, and maintaining water, electrolyte, and acid alkali balance.In lavage group, the patients were treated with early minimally invasive peritoneal lavage in addition.The levels of C reactive protein(CRP), serum tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and interleukin 8(IL-8)were detected before and 2, 5, 7 days after tretment. Results There was no significant difference in CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, or IL-8 before treament between the two groups (Pgt;0.05). There were significant differences in CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 after treatment between the two groups (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Early minimally invasive peritoneal lavage is a simple, minially invasive, and effective techinique in treating SAP.
Objective To observe the relationship between the suturing patterns to close the scleral incision and postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) in 23G minimally invasive vitrectomy. Methods Eighty eyes of 80 patients with vitreoretinal diseases, who were treated with primary 23G minimally invasive vitrectomy, were enrolled in this prospective clinical study. Patients with poor closed scleral incision which need suturing were excluded from this study. The corrected visual acuity ranged from hand movement to 0.2. The IOP ranged from 7.9 to 19.8 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa), with the mean of (13.9plusmn;1.8) mm Hg. The eyes were randomly divided into three groups: group A (20 eyes), suturing all three scleral puncture after vitrectomy; group B (20 eyes), suturing only two upper scleral puncture, but not the lower infusion puncture after vitrectomy; group C (40 eyes), no suturing for all 3 scleral puncture after vitrectomy. All patients underwent 23G vitrectomy only. The corrected visual acuity and IOP were observed after surgery. Results The corrected visual acuity were 0.1 -0.3, 0.2- 0.5, 0.3 -0.8 in one, seven and 14 days after surgery, respectively. No one in group A, B experienced hypotony in one, three, seven and 14 days after surgery. Thirteen (32.5%), five (12.5 %), two eyes (5.0%) in group C experienced hypotony in one, three and seven days after surgery. Seven eyes (17.5%) experienced severe hypotony (＜5 mm Hg) in 14 day after surgery in group C. The difference was statistically significant compared the incidence of hypotony in group C with group A, B respectively at different time points after surgery (chi;2= 16.82,P=0.007). The difference was statistically significant compared the incidence of hypotony in group C at different time points after surgery (chi;2=11.64,P=0.003). The difference was no significant compared the IOP between group A and B at different time points after surgery (F=1.618,P=0.205). Compared the IOP of group C to group A and B, the difference was statistically significant in one and three days after vitrectomy (F=9.351,P=0.000); but not statistically significant in seven and 14 days after vitrectomy(F=0.460,P=0.633). Conclusions Whether or not suturing the scleral punctures is closely related to postoperative hypotony in 23G vitrectomy. Suturing only the two upper scleral punctures can reduce the occurrence of postoperative hypotony.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical outcomes of idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane (IMEM) by 23G vitrectomy with or without internal limiting membrane peeling. MethodsA total of 40 eyes in 40 patients diagnosed as IMEM underwent 23G pars plana three-port vitrectomy (23G PPV). The macular ERM alone was removed in 20 eyes (non-ILM peeling group). Both ERM and ILM peeling were performed in another 20 eyes (ILM peeling group). All patients underwent removal of ERM with assistance of triamcinolone acetonide. For patients who underwent ILM peeling, indocyanine green dye was used to stain the ILM. ILM was peeled off up to the marginal of macular vessels arch. The patients in ILM peeling group and non-ILM peeling group had postsurgical follow-up for (15.85±3.79) months and (16.45±3.72) months respectively. There were no significant differences in gender, age, OD/OS, preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), preoperative central macular thickness (CMT), preoperative total macular volume (TMV) and follow-up time between the two groups (P > 0.05). Intraoperative or postoperative complication was recorded during the follow-up period. At the final visit, the differences in BCVA, CMT and TMV between the two groups were analyzed, so did the correlations between BCVA and CMT or TMV in each group at the same time. ResultsThere was no recurrence of an ERM or severe complications, such as retinal detachment and endophthalmitis in either group. The mean BCVA of ILM peeling group and non-ILM peeling group was 0.53±0.27 and 0.54±0.26 respectively at the final visit. Postoperative BCVA improved significantly in both groups with significant difference (t=5.035, 4.964; P < 0.05). The was no difference of postoperative BCVA between two groups (t=0.176, P > 0.05). The mean CMT was (343.55±48.74) μm and (311.70±42.48) μm, and the mean TMV was (7.78±0.40) mm3 and (7.88±0.43) mm3. CMT (t=9.508, 8.549) and TMV (t=11.098、15.372) revealed a significant decrease in both groups with significant difference (P < 0.05).The postoperative CMT in the ILM peeling group was significantly higher than that in the non-ILM peeling group (t=-2.203, P < 0.05). No difference was found between the two groups in terms of TMV (t=0.755, P > 0.05). Furthermore, no correlation was observed between postoperative BCVA and CMT (r=0.244, 0.266; P > 0.05) or TMV (r=-0.096, 0.157; P > 0.05). Conclusions23G PPV combined with or without ILM peeling is an efficient and safe treatment for IMEM. ILM peeling appears to have similar effect on the long-term visual outcomes comparing with non-ILM peeling, combined with much thicker postoperative CMT.
Objective To design a new extracorporeal reduction device for percutaneous pedicle screw fixation of thoracolumbar fractures (short for “new reduction device”), and to evaluate its effectiveness. Methods According to the mechanism of thoracolumbar fractures and biomechanics characteristic of reduction, a new reduction device was designed and used in a combination with long U-shaped hollow pedicle screw system. Between January 2014 and January 2016, 36 patients (group A) with single segment thoracolumbar fracture without neurological complications underwent percutaneous pedicle screw fixation, and the clinical data were compared with those of another 39 patients (group B) with thoracolumbar fracture underwent traditional open pedicle screw fixation. There was no significant difference in gender, age, cause of injury, classification of fractures, segments of fractures, injury to operation interval, height percentage of injury vertebrae, and kyphotic angle between 2 groups (P>0.05). The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, length of incision, intraoperative blood loss, drainage volume, visual analogue scale (VAS) at postoperative 24 hours, fluoroscopy frequency, ambulation time, height percentage of injury vertebrae, kyphotic angle and correction. Results Group A was significantly better than group B in the operation time, length of incision, intraoperative blood loss, drainage volume, VAS score at postoperative 24 hours, and ambulation time (P<0.05). However, fluoroscopy frequency of group B was significantly less than that of group A (P<0.05). All patients were followed up 11.2 months on average (range, 7-15 months). There was no intraoperative and postoperative complications of iatrogenic nerve injury, infection, breakage of internal fixation. Mild pulling-out of pedicle screws occurred in 1 case of group A during operation. The kyphotic angle and height percentage of the fractured vertebral body were significantly improved at 3 days after operation when compared with preoperative ones (P<0.05), but no significant difference was found between 2 groups at 3 days after operation (P>0.05). Conclusion Minimally invasive extracorporeal reduction device for percutaneous pedicle screw fixation is an effective and safe treatment of thoracic vertebrae and lumbar vertebrae fractures, because of little trauma, less bleeding, and quicker recovery.
