inferior vena cava repair using serosal patch of small bowel: an experimental study
نویسندگان
چکیده
objective: to evaluate the feasibility and results of using serosal patch of small bowel for repair and replacement of inferior vena cava (ivc) after resection of a part of infra-renal ivc in an animal model, as it may be encountered in extensive tumors of retroperitoneal and trauma patients. methods: five healthy sheep of both sexes were prepared. after general anesthesia and laparotomy, a defect with 1 cm width and 4cm length was made on anterior aspect of infra-renal ivc, and then an adjacent loop of small bowel was brought and sutured continuously to cover the defect of ivc as a patch graft. the observation period was two months. results: three of five ivcs were macroscopically patent without stenosis and thrombosis. pathologic assay revealed complete endothelialization of serosal surface of the patch of small bowel loop. one of ivcs was completely occluded in gross evaluation and fibrous formation in pathologist review. the sheep had no sign of venous hypertension and edema of limbs. one sheep died at the night of first operation due to internal bleeding. conclusion: serosal patch of small bowel is an accessible and feasible alternative in repair and reconstruction of ivc especially when there is restriction for use of prosthetic material in a contaminated space of abdomen.

متن کاملCompression of the Inferior Vena Cava in Bowel Obstruction
INTRODUCTION We investigated whether (a) the inferior vena cava (IVC) is compressed in bowel obstruction and (b) some tracts are more compressed than others. METHODS Two groups of abdominal computed tomography (CT) examinations were collected retrospectively. Group O (N = 69) scans were positive for bowel obstruction, group C (N = 50) scans were negative for diseases. IVC anteroposterior and ...
متن کاملDouble inferior vena cava.
Venous anomalies involving the inferior vena cava are very rare. The case of a 74-year-old man with coronary artery disease is presented. Interestingly, a double inferior vena cava was incidentally discovered during coronary artery bypass grafting. Persistence of the left hepatic segment vein appeared as a left inferior vena cava-a very rare condition.
متن کاملInferior vena cava filters.
Venous thromboembolism is common. Most pulmonary emboli arise as thromboses in the deep veins of the lower extremities and may result in serious complications. Inferior vena cava filters (IVCF) are intended to prevent the passage of deep vein thrombosis to the pulmonary arteries. Accepted indications for IVCF placement include the presence of acute venous thromboembolism with inability to admin...
متن کاملInferior Vena Cava Thrombosis.
Thrombosis of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is an under-recognized entity that is associated with significant short- and long-term morbidity and mortality. In absence of a congenital anomaly, the most common cause of IVC thrombosis is the presence of an unretrieved IVC filter. Due to the substantial increase in the number of IVC filters placed in the United States and the very low filter retriev...
