Long-term preserved structure of myofibers and vessels of the latissimus dorsi after Dynamic Cardiomyoplasty
Evidences of myofiber abnormalities and replacement with fatty and fibrotic tissue have been described experimentally in electrostimulated latissimus dorsi muscle (LDM) transposed for Dynamic Cardiomyoplasty, and clinically such changes were related to the long-term diminished effectiveness of the procedure in patients. Clinically, just a few reports have been addressing direct inspection of LD...
متن کاملActivity-rest stimulation of latissimus dorsi for cardiomyoplasty: 1-year results in sheep.
BACKGROUND In dynamic cardiomyoplasty electro-stimulation achieves full transformation of the latissimus dorsi (LD); therefore, its slowness limits the systolic support. Daily activity-rest could maintain partial transformation of the LD. METHODS Sheep LD were burst-stimulated either 10 or 24 hours/day. Before and 2, 4, 6, and 12 months after stimulation, LD power output, fatigue resistance, ...
متن کاملLong-term outcome of Dynamic Cardiomyoplasty in France
Dynamic Cardiomyoplasty (DCMP) aims at improving cardiac function in cases of severe heart failure. It consists in anchoring Latissimus Dorsi Muscle (LDM) to failing ventricles. LDM is stimulated in synchrony with ventricular contractions by burst of impulses (6, 31 ms) delivered by a cardiomyostimulator (CM). A retrospective analysis of collective French experience (6 centers) is reported. Sin...
متن کاملLatissimus Dorsi Stimulation in Dynamic Cardiomyoplasty: How Should We Proceed?
Improved understanding of the mechanisms of action in dynamic cardiomyoplasty (DCMP) and continued research in the stimulation of the latissimus dorsi muscle (LDM) contribute to the development of new stimulation strategies aimed at improving DCMP outcomes. Cautious initiation of LDM stimulation sooner after surgery than currently practiced may provide the patient earlier hemodynamic assistance...
متن کاملLong-term results of breast conservation and immediate volume replacement with myocutaneous latissimus dorsi flap
BACKGROUND Published long-term outcomes of oncoplastic breast-conserving surgery are scarce and, specifically, aesthetic outcomes assessed with an objective method have not previously been published. METHODS A cohort of 41 patients treated with a quadrantectomny and immediate reconstruction using a myocutaneous latissimus dorsi flap were analyzed and their aesthetic outcomes were evaluated ob...
