Hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) combines the advantages of minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCAB) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and avoids its relative shortcomings, which has received particular attention in recent years. HCR seems to have become the third revascularization strategy for multi-vessel disease in coronary heart diseases. However, the clinical researches on HCR are still limited. This article will systematically review the comparison of HCR with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and PCI, the results of HCR in specific patients, and the clinical results of different HCR strategies.
Objective To explore the factors affecting the operation of coronary artery bypass grafting with heart beating and improve the effect of the operation. MethodsFrom January 2012 to June 2016, 898 patients with coronary heart disease who received cardiovascular surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Jilin University were analyzed retrospectively. All patients only underwent coronary artery bypass grafting with beating heart. Among them, 797 patients underwent the off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (an OPCABG group, 592 males and 205 females, with an average age of 60.5±8.4 years); another 101 patients received on-pump beating heart coronary artery bypass grafting (an OPBH group, 77 males and 24 females, with an average age of 61.5±8.2 years). ResultsThe average number of grafts in the OPCABG group was 3.36±0.74, and in the OPBH group was 3.71±0.69 (P<0.05). The postoperative ventilation time (10.8±9.5 h vs. 20.6±12.3 h), ICU stay (28.8±15.5 h vs. 37.4±30.8 h), hospital stay (10.9±4.8 d vs. 14.8±8.6 d), mortality (1.1% vs. 3.0%), the utilization rate of intra-aortic balloon pump (2.4% vs. 8.9%) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (0.5% vs. 5.0%) were significantly different between the OPCABG group and OPBH group (all P<0.05). Twelve patients died after surgery, and the total bloodless operation ratio was 91.3%. ConclusionThe results show that most patients can achieve good results with the help of apical fixation and myocardial fixator, improved surgical techniques and methods, good anesthesia management as well as flexible and accurate use of vasoactive drugs. But extracorporeal circulation is necessary in the patients with large left ventricle, low ejection fraction and hemodynamic instability after intraoperatively moving the heart.

Methods :From July of 2005 through June of 2008,two hundred consecutive patients undergoing OPCAB were retrospectively studied. Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 00501mg/kg, or etomidate 03mg/kg and fentanyl 515μg/kg. Anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane 05%20% and oxygen, combined with propofol 14mg/(kg·h). Intraoperative hypotension resulting from either surgical procedure or anesthetics should be dealt with inotropes immediately. Results :Intraoperative hemodynamics deviation was tolerated with the support of inotropics. The mean of patients of consciousness recovery time, tracheal extubation time and stay in ICU time were 178±42 min,105±40 hours and 18±63 hours. The patients were discharged in 80±12 days. Racheal intubation were remained 12 hours in 180 patients after operation, 180 patients had good recovery without any anesthesia complications. Conclusion : Rational use of anesthetics and inotropics to stabilize hemodynamics during operation plays a key role in successful OPCAB.
ObjectiveTo identify the risk factors for hospital mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 145 AMI patients undergoing emergency CABG surgery in Qingdao Municipal Hospital from 2009 to 2019. There were 108 (74.5%) males and 37 (25.5%) females with a mean age of 67.7±11.5 years. According to whether there was in-hospital death after surgery, the patients were divided into a survival group (132 patients) and a death group (13 patients). Preoperative and operative data were analyzed by univariate analysis, followed by multivariate logistic regression analysis, to identify the risk factors for hospital mortality.ResultsOver all, 13 patients died in the hospital after operation, with a mortality rate of 9.0%. In univariate analysis, significant risk factors for hospital mortality were age≥70 years, recent myocardial infarction, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)<30%, left main stenosis/dissection, operation time and simultaneous surgeries (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that LVEF<30% (OR=2.235, 95%CI 1.024-9.411, P=0.014), recent myocardial infarction (OR=4.027, 95%CI 1.934-14.268, P=0.032), operation time (OR=1.039, 95%CI 1.014-1.064, P=0.002) were independent risk factors for hospital mortality after emergency CABG.ConclusionEmergency CABG in patients with AMI has good benefits, but patients with LVEF<30% and recent myocardial infarction have high in-hospital mortality, so the operation time should be shortened as much as possible.
ObjectiveTo summarize the surgical experience of infants with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) and intramural coronary artery (IMCA) in our center, and analyze the early and mid-term outcomes.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 384 infants with TGA undergoing arterial switch operation (ASO) from June 2010 to December 2018 at Fuwai Hospital. According to operative records, 21 (5.5%) infants had IMCA, among whom 20 were males, with a median age of 33 (9-319) d. Coronary transfer using double coronary buttons with unroofed intramural course was performed in all 21 infants.ResultsThere was no statistical difference in the early mortality after ASO between infants with IMCA and infants with normal coronary anatomy (9.5% vs. 3.0%, P=0.15). In the IMCA group, 2 dead patients presented inadequate coronary artery perfusion after first aortic unclamping. In addition, 1 patient underwent extracorporeal membrane pulmonary support for myocardial dysfunction. The follow-up was available for all 19 survivors, with an average follow-up time of 29.0-120.0 (74.8±27.3) months. During the follow-up, all patients had no obvious symptoms, death, reoperation, or coronary complications. One patient developed moderate pulmonary valve regurgitation and another patient developed distal stenosis of the right pulmonary artery.ConclusionFor infants with TGA and IMCA, coronary transfer using double coronary buttons with unroofed intramural course is a safe and reliable technique, with satisfactory early and mid-term outcomes.
Minimally invasive cardiac surgeries are the trend in the future. Among them, robotic cardiac surgery is the latest iteration with several key-hole incision, 3-dimentional visualization, and articulated instrumentation of 7 degree of ergonomic freedom for those complex procedures in the heart. In particular, robotic mitral valve surgery, as well as coronary artery bypass grafting, has evolved over the last decade and become the preferred method at certain specialized centers worldwide because of excellent results. Other cardiac procedures are in various stages of evolution. Stepwise innovation of robotic technology will continue to make robotic operations simpler, more efficient, and less invasive, which will encourage more surgeons to take up this technology and extend the benefits of robotic surgery to a larger patient population.
Objective To investigate the relationship between miR-3187-5p in peripheral blood and pericardial drainage after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF). Methods Patients who underwent CABG in the Heart Center of Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital from March to May 2022 were enrolled. Peripheral blood and pericardial drainage were collected at 0 h after surgery (immediate time for patients to return to ICU from operating room) to detect miR-3187-5p, and perioperative confounding factors were also collected. The miR-3187-5p was measured by quantitative real-time PCR and its regulated target genes were analyzed by bioinformatics. Results A total of 15 patients were enrolled, including 9 males and 6 females with an average age of 65.6±8.2 years. The incidence rate of POAF was 40.0%. miR-3187-5p in pericardial drainage at 0 h after surgery was an independent predictor for POAF. A total of 1 642 target genes of miR-3187-5p were predicted. GO function enrichment analysis and KEGG signal pathway enrichment analysis showed that target genes of miR-3187-5p were enriched in TGF-β, MAPK, Wnt and other classical collagen metabolic signal pathways, which might activate collagen metabolism by negatively regulating SMAD6 and other inhibitors of the pathways. Conclusion This study is the first to find that miR-3187-5p in pericardial drainage at 0 h after surgery is a potential, novel, and predictive factor for POAF, which may be related to the regulation of myocardial fibrosis signal pathways like TGF-β, MAPK and Wnt pathways, promoting the early collagen metabolism imbalance after CABG, increasing the collagen deposition in the atrium, and then promoting the early structural reconstruction after CABG and leading to the occurrence of POAF. The result provides a research basis for the accurate prediction and prevention of clinical POAF.
Objective To investigate the mastery of the management knowledge of patients with atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting by cardiac surgeons in Beijing tertiary hospitals, and the practice status and obstacles of following the guidelines for postoperative atrial fibrillation. Methods A convenient sampling method was used to select cardiac surgeons from four tertiary hospitals in Beijing, and a self-designed questionnaire on the management of postoperative atrial fibrillation patients was used. Results A total of 227 valid questionnaires were collected. Only 47.9% of doctors and 12.8% of nurses passed in knowledge, and 31.3% of doctors and 28.5% of nurses passed in behavior. Among them, risk factor assessment, preventive medication, stroke and bleeding risk assessment were the weakest. "Lack of departmental requirements" was identified as a common barrier to healthcare workers' adherence to guidelines. Job title and participation in training were common influencing factors that affected the knowledge and behavior of healthcare workers, and knowledge level was an important factor affecting healthcare worker behavior. Conclusion In order to improve the effect of CABG surgery and improve the quality of postoperative patient management, hospitals should further strengthen the knowledge and skills training of medical staff on the management guidelines of postoperative atrial fibrillation with CABG, formulate relevant systems to ensure the clinical implementation of guidelines.
ObjectiveTo explore the outcomes achieved by using left internal mammary artery (LIMA) to radial artery (RA) or saphenous vein (SV) Y-composite grafts in minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCAB) for patients with multiple vessel disease. MethodsFrom January 2009 through May 2015, 56 patients (36 males and 20 females) with multiple vessel disease underwent MIDCAB with LIMA-RA or LIMA-SV Y-composite grafts without cardiopulmonary bypass in our hospital. MIDCAB was performed through a left anterior minithoracotomy. Thirty four patients used LIMA-RA grafts, and twenty two patients used LIMA-SV grafts. ResultsAll patients success-fully underwent MIDCAB with LIMA-SV or LIMA-RA Y-composite grafts. No patient required to convert to sternotomy during the surgery. Revascularization was performed for 2 target vessels in 12 patients, 3 target vessels in 41 patients and 4 target vessels in 3 patients. Mean postoperative ventilation time was 27.14±31.35 h. Mean ICU time was 3.16±2.53 d, and mean postoperative inhosptial time was 11.89±3.91 d. Thirty-day mortality was 1.79% (1/56). At a follow-up of 1 to 77 months, no patients received revascularization. The overall survival at 2 years postoperatively was 94.4%±5.4% in the LIMA-RA group and 86.8%±9.2% in the LIMA-SV group (P=0.299). The patency rate of LIMA was 100.0%. The overall patency rate of RA or SV grafts at 2 years postoperatively was 90.3%±5.3% or 86.7%±6.3% with no statistical difference (P=0.265). ConclusionMIDCAB with LIMA-RA or LIMA-SV Y-composite grafts is a safe and an effective procedure with favorable early and mid-term outcomes for patients with multiple vessel disease. LIMA-SV composite graft can be used as an alternative graft for patient whose RA is not possible or advisable.
