Repair of incisional hernia after median sternotomy.
About 19 000 cardiac surgical procedures are carried out annually in the United Kingdom, 4000 being for congenital defects (UK Cardiac Surgical Register: Society of Thoracic and Cardiovacular Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland, 1983). Most of these procedures use the median sternotomy incision for access to the heart and great vessels. Epigastric incisional hernias may occur as a complicatio...
متن کاملManagement of Iatrogenic Pulmonary Artery Injury during Pulmonary Artery Banding
Pulmonary Artery banding (PAB) is limited to selected patients who cannot undergo primary repair due to complex anatomy, associated co-morbidities, as a part of staged univentricular palliation, and for preparing the left ventricle prior to an arterial switch operation. We report a catastrophic iatrogenic complication in which the pulmonary artery was injured during the PAB. We discuss its mult...
متن کاملDelayed Iatrogenic Diaphragmatic Hernia after Left Lower Lobectomy
A 66-year-old patient undergoing regular follow-up at Samsung Medical Center after left lower lobectomy visited the emergency department around 9 months postoperatively because of nausea and vomiting after routine esophagogastroduodenoscopy at a local clinic. Abdominal computed tomography showed the stomach herniating into the left thoracic cavity. We explored the pleural cavity via video-assis...
متن کاملPulmonary artery sarcoma resected via median sternotomy with thoracoscopic assistance
Median sternotomy is frequently selected for the resection of pulmonary artery tumor, and pneumonectomy is performed for complete resection. However, it is difficult to see the inferior pulmonary vein and transect it safely via median sternotomy, so additional thoracotomy is often required and this is highly invasive. In the present case, we employed thoracoscopy (which we routinely use for VAT...
متن کاملEvaluation of Thymic Changes after Median Sternotomy in Children
In patients who undergo median sternotomy to treat congenital heart diseases, a thymectomy is performed to yield better access to the cardiac system. In this study we have used MRI to evaluate the changes in size, shape and location of the thymus after midsternatomy. This case-control study was performed during 2011-2012 in Shiraz, Iran. Eligible participants between 5-17 years of age were divi...
