OBJECTIVES Coronary artery atresia is a rare coronary artery anomaly in children and has a high rate of misdiagnosis. We aimed to summarize the profile and early outcomes after the surgical reconstruction of coronary artery atresia in children. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed in 12 consecutive patients with coronary artery atresia who were admitted to the Department of Paediatric Cardiac Surgery of Fuwai Hospital between October 2016 and September 2020. Ten patients underwent surgical reconstruction of the coronary artery with the pulmonary artery anterior wall, and 8 patients underwent concomitant mitral valvuloplasty. RESULTS There were 6 females and 6 males, with an age of 1.75 years [interquartile range (IQR), 1.0-3.5] and weight of 10.0 kg (IQR, 8.9-14.75). There were 10 cases of left coronary artery atresia and 2 cases of right coronary artery atresia. All the patients were initially misdiagnosed in the outpatient clinic, but further nonselective coronary angiography confirmed the diagnosis of coronary artery atresia. In all 10 patients with mitral regurgitation, echocardiogram of the mitral valve chordae and papillary muscle revealed ischaemic changes. The clamp time was 89.0 min (IQR, 75.0-101.0), the pump time was 126.0 min (IQR, 119.0-132.0) and the intensive care unit stay time was 1.5 days (IQR, 1.0-3.0). No perioperative deaths were noted. After 9.5 months (IQR, 5.5-13.5) of follow-up, 2 patients with fractional shortening that significantly decreased to 14.1% and 14.8% died and 1 patient had moderate pericardial effusion that improved after treatment with oral diuretics. Coronary artery ultrasound and enhanced computed tomography showed a patent main coronary artery in all the patients. CONCLUSIONS Coronary artery atresia in children is often associated with mitral regurgitation, and mitral valve chordae and papillary muscle exhibit ischaemic changes. Coronary artery reconstruction is safe and effective in children with coronary artery atresia.
Background: Free wall rupture is a fatal and emergency complication of acute myocardial infarction. The factors associated with in-hospital mortality from free wall rupture remain unclear. Objectives: To investigate the factors associated with in-hospital mortality from free wall rupture. Methods: We performed a single-center, retrospective study. We enrolled 111 consecutive patients with free wall rupture following acute myocardial infarction who were admitted to Fuwai Hospital from January 2005 to May 2021. The primary endpoint was in-hospital death. Clinical characteristics, laboratory data, and treatment modalities associated with in-hospital mortality were analyzed. Results: Eighty-seven of the 111 study participants died in hospital. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that pericardiocentesis (hazard ratio [HR] 0.296, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.094-0.929, p = 0.037), pericardial effusion at admission (HR 0.083, 95% CI 0.025-0.269, p<0.001), time interval between acute myocardial infarction and free wall rupture (HR 0.670, 95% CI 0.598-0.753, p<0.001), and previous myocardial infarction (HR 0.046, 95% CI 0.010-0.208, p<0.001) were independently associated with in-hospital mortality. Conclusions: Pericardiocentesis, pericardial effusion at admission, the acute myocardial infarction to free wall rupture time, and previous myocardial infarction are associated with a lower rate of in-hospital mortality from free wall rupture after acute myocardial infarction.

Objective:To summarize the surgical treatments of deep sternal wound infection (DSWI) in children aged under 7 years after pediatric cardiac surgery.Methods:From January 2010 to December 2019, a total of 31 866 children underwent cardiac surgery through a median sternal incision.There were 387 neonates.Among them, 0.15%(47/31 866) developed deep incision infection involving sternum.The incidence of DSWI in children of different ages was 2.33%(9/387) for neonates, 0.15%(6/4 018) for children aged 2-6 months, 0.09% for children aged 6-12 months (6/7 010), 0.13% (15/11 511) for children aged 1-3 and 0.12%(11/8 940) for children aged 3-7.Among 47 children, there are 30 boys and 17 girls; their age was (1.98±2.03) years; their weight (10.55±6.24) kg.Complex congenital heart disease accounted for 75% of all cases.There were 9 neonates (19.1%), 21 infants (44.7%) aged under 1 year, 14 infants (29.8%) with wound infection and debridement within 15 days after an initial operation, 11 infants (23.4%) with wound infection and debridement 15 to 30 days after an initial operation and 22 infants (46.8%) over 30 days.Results:The incidence rate of postoperative deep incision infection in newborns was significantly higher than that in children of other ages, and the difference had statistical significance ( P=0). All 47 children had a median sternotomy, and the original surgical incision was opened for drainage and dressing change immediately after the diagnosis of infection. After the wound was clean and granulation was fresh, they were sent to the operating room for debridement surgery. The time from debridement surgery to the last cardiac surgery was (126.89±310.53) d, ranging from 4 to 1997 days. Among them, the children with infection time >30 days who underwent debridement surgery had a high recurrence rate of infection, 50.0% (11/22) required multiple debridement, and only 59.1% (13/22) of the children were able to preserve the sternum. In this study, 29.8% (14/47) of the children required more than two debridement procedures in the hospital; 25.5% (12/47) of the children underwent pectoralis major muscle flap transfer surgery due to severe infection that could not preserve the sternum; and 14.9% (7/47) of the children used closed continuous vacuum aspiration therapy before debridement surgery due to severe exudation of the infection or inability to cooperate with bedside dressing change. Bacteriological culture was performed on the wound secretions of 31 children, of which 18 cultured Gram-positive cocci, mainly Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus, 9 did not detect pathogenic bacteria, and the remaining 4 cultured Gram-negative bacilli. There were no hospital deaths among the children in this study. One child required continuous dressing change after discharge due to sinus formation; one child had cardiac rupture and bleeding during debridement, and the chest was successfully closed after intraoperative compression hemostasis, and the child was recovered and discharged; no serious complications occurred in other children. Conclusions:Higher attention should be paid to treatment, early detection and diagnosis, thorough drainage, early debridement and avoiding other serious complications caused by the expansion of infection range are vital for a successful treatment.

To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of external suspension with absorbable poly-l-lactic acid material shaping microplates for infants with severe bronchomalacia and congenital heart disease. From November 2017 to January 2019, 11 continual patients with severe bronchomalacia and congenital heart disease underwent bronchial membrane external suspension together with cardiovascular surgery. An absorbable plate made with poly-l-lactic acid material was used as the shaping fixation material in all patients. Data included the details of the operation, and clinical results were collected. The mean age was 1.2 ± 1.0 years, and the mean weight was 7.7 ± 2.9 kg. The patients with cardiac malformations were operated on under low-temperature cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) through median sternotomy. There were no in-hospital deaths. The CPB time, mechanical ventilation time, and length of intensive care unit stay were 123.9 ± 36.9 min, 20.7 ± 19.4 h, and 71.6 ± 54.9 h, respectively. Two patients underwent surgery through a left posterolateral incision without CPB. One was a double aortic arch repair, and the other was only bronchial membrane external suspension with prior IAA repair. No patients needed ECMO support. The mean follow-up time was 12.1 ± 5.6 months, and no patients were lost to follow-up. No cases of late death were noted, and no patients needed reoperation. According to the CT scans, no patients had bronchial restenosis. External bronchial membrane suspension with an absorbable poly-l-lactic acid material shaping plate, which had better histocompatibility, for infants with severe bronchomalacia and congenital heart disease was a safe and feasible procedure.

Objective Analyze the results of distal aortic reoperation in Marfan syndrome patients after proximal aortic surgery.Methods Between January 2000 and January 2010, 28 Marfan patients underwent surgical repair of distal aortic disease after aortic root surgery at our institution.There were 20 males and 8 females.Age ranged from 23 to 52 years [ mean (38.5 ± 8.7) years ].First time operations were Bentall procedure in 24, David procedure in 4.There were 8 cases of Stanford A dissection and 20 cases of aortic root aneurysm.The second time operations included 1 partial aortic arch replacement, 2 total arch replacements, 7 total arch replacements combined with stent elephant trunk, 6 descending thoracic aorta replacements,10 thoracoabdominal aorta replacements and 2 total aorta replacements.The interval between the lst and 2nd operation was 1 to 12 years [mean (6.43 ±3.07) years].The surgical technique used for distal procedures was dependent on the pathology of the aorta.Median repeat sternotomy was used for surgical exposure in 10 patients, who required an arch/proximal descending aortic procedure.Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was established through the right axillary perfusion and right femoral venous drainage in all of these patients.16 patients were operated on through a left-sided incision, namely, a posterolateral thoracotomy, or a thoracoabdominal incision, depending on the distal extent of aortic replacement.For such patients, the left femoral vessels were cannulated for CPB in 14 patients and the rest 2 patients were operated on without CPB.Two patients with total aorta replacement were operated on through a median sternotomy combined with thoracoabdominal incision.22 patients underwent deep hypothermic circulatory arrest because of the replacement of anrtic arch or the extensive aneurismal arch.Reconstruction of intercostal arteries (T8-L1) was performed in 16 patients for the protection of spinal cord.Results Two patients (7.1%) died postoperatively.Neurological morbidity included 1 patient with stroke, 1 paraplegia and 2 temporary paraparesis Three patients required temporary tracheotomy for prolonged weaning form the respirator.All patients were followed up for 10-118 months [mean (40.8 ±29.5) months].Two patients died during follow-up.The survival rate was (94.5 ± 1.3)%,(90.6 ± 1.4) % at 1-and 5-year, respectively.Conclusion Distal aortic reoperation in Marfan patients can be performed with good short-and long-term results.Complete aortic arch replacement with elephant trunk technique, if safely performed,should be considered for Marfan patients presenting with type A dissection.
室间隔穿孔是急性心肌梗死后严重并发症之一,约占急性心肌梗死患者的1%~2%。内科保守治疗效果差,一旦穿孔发生后往往迅速发生心力衰竭、心源性休克而致死亡。手术治疗是公认有效的治疗方法,但手术风险仍尚高,早期死亡率高,近期出现介入治疗的探索。
