  • Minimally Invasive Sternal Lowering Operation for the Correction of Pectus Carinatum

    Objective To investigate surgical indications,techniques,safety and clinical outcomes of minimallyinvasive sternal lowering operation for the treatment of pectus carinatum (PC). Methods Clinical data of 40 PC patientswho underwent minimal invasive sternal lowering operation in Xinhua Hospital,School of Medicine,Shanghai Jiao Tong University from July 2009 to August 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 39 male patients and 1 female patientwith their average age of 14.5 (12-22)years. All the patients underwent their surgical correction for the first time,and their chest deformity were characterized by a significant protrusion of the sternum and ribs including 21 symmetric and 19 asymmetric protrusions. Preoperative evaluation included electrocardiogram,CT scan of the chest,echocardiogram and pulmonary function test. Preoperative mean Haller index was 1.91±0.23. Sixteen patients had mild restrictive ventilatory disorder. Allthe patients received minimally invasive sternal lowering operation with a curved Nuss steel bar. Aggravating activities wererestricted within 3 months postoperatively,and the steel bar was removed 2 years later. Results All the operations were completed successfully,and thoracic appearance was significantly improved after correction. All the patients and their relativeswere very satisfied with the corrective outcomes. The operation time was 65-115 (82.0±15.6)minutes and average intraop-erative blood loss was less than 10 ml. Postoperative hospital stay was 3-5 (3.5±0.8) days. Postoperative Haller index was2.39±0.17,which was significantly higher than preoperative Haller index (P<0.01) . Postoperative complications included wound infection in 2 patients,pneumothorax in 1 patient (cured by closed thoracostomy),subcutaneous effusion in 3 patients,and persistent pain (longer than 14 days) in 2 patients. There was no other serious postoperative complication. All the 40 patients were followed up for 3-36 months after discharge. A steel bars was removed ahead of schedule because of wound infection in one patient. Other steel bars were in normal position in 39 patients and there was no displacement of the steel bars or the stabilizers. Eight patients received removal of the steel bars without PC recurrence. Conclusion Juveniles with PC who have good chest wall compliance are the best candidates for minimally invasive sternal lowering operation which is an easy,safe,reliable,minimally invasive and esthetic procedure with satisfactory corrective outcomes.

    ObjectiveTo explore the surgical design and efficacy of novel modified Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum (PE).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 903 patients with PE who were treated by the new kind of steel bar and the novel modified Nuss procedure. There were 716 males and 187 females at mean age of 2-45 (12.1±6.8) years. Preoperative chest CT scans Haller index (HI) was 3.1-15.2 (4.6±1.3), with 38 patients of mild PE (HI<3.2), 302 patients of moderate PE (HI 3.2-3.5), 521 patients of severe PE (HI 3.6-6.0), and 42 patients of extremely severe PE (HI>6.0). The operative time, operative blood loss, hospital stay time as well as postoperative complications were reviewed and analyzed.ResultsAll of the 903 patients successfully completed the surgery. The mean operative time was 20-45 (25.2±2.6) min for primary PE and that for special type of PE (including recurring PE, PE patients after heart disease operation and those corrected by 2 bars) was 48-150 (63.5±28.1) min. Blood loss was less than 10 mL for primary PE and 15-50 (23.5±5.5) mL for special type of PE. Postoperative hospital stay was 3-15 (4.5±1.6) d. A total of 845 patients (93.6%) required 1 steel bar insertion, 58 patients (6.4%) required 2 steel bars. Postoperative evaluation of the surgery outcomes revealed the following: excellent in 805 patients, good in 84 patients, fair in 14 patients and poor in 0. The good quality rate was 98.4%.ConclusionNovel modified Nuss procedure can simplify and optimize the surgical design with good short and mid-term effects.

  • A novel modified Nuss procedure without plate turnover for treatment of adult recurrent pectus excavatum

    ObjectiveTo summarize the experience of treating adult recurrent pectus excavatum without plate turnover.MethodsTwenty-seven patients with recurrent pectus excavatum treated by thoracoscopy-assisted placement without plate turnover from 2010 to 2019 in our hospital were enrolled. There were 23 males and 4 females with the age of 3-29 (12.81±7.79) years at the first operation, and 18-29 (21.74±3.56) years at this operation. Incision of 2-3 cm at bilateral axillary midline of the deepest point of pectus excavatum was made, and an auxiliary incision under xiphoid process was adopted according to the intraoperative situation.ResultsAll patients underwent thoracoscopy-assisted correction of pectus excavatum without bar turnover, and subxiphoid incision was performed in 11 patients. Twenty-five patients had one bar placed, and two patients required two bars. The operation time was 28-45 (33.00±6.44) min. Postoperative Haller index (2.95±0.40) was improved compared with preoperation (4.63±1.03). The postoperative hospital stay was 4-6 (4.00±0.32) day. All patients were followed up for 1-8 years. Complications included poor wound healing in 1 patient, and steel wire fracture and displacement in 1 patient. There was no plate rotation or bar displacement. Fourteen patients removed the bar 29-84 (40.36±13.93) months after the placement. Haller index was improved to 2.43-3.61 (2.86±0.35) during removal of steel plate. Untill June 2020, there was no recurrence of pectus excavatum.ConclusionThe treatment of adult recurrent pectus excavatum without plate turnover is satisfactory, and the protection of intercostal muscle and firm fixation is the key to ensure the success of operation and long-term effects.

  • Short-term outcomes between small thoracotomy and thoracoscopic approach for pediatric lobectomy: A case control study

    Objective To compare the short-term outcomes of small thoracotomy and thoracoscopic approach for pediatric lobectomy. Methods From June 2011 to June 2016, 42 patients with lung diseases undertook lobectomy in Xinhua Hospital. There were 24 males and 18 females with an average age of 7.13±5.00 years, ranging from 4 months to 16 years. According to different operation methods, they were divided into a thoracoscopy group (n=22) and a small incision group (n=20). Duration of operation, intraoperative blood loss, duration of postoperative drainage, and postoperative hospital stay and complications between the two groups were recorded and compared. Results There was no significant difference in the age, body weight between the two groups (8.44±4.99 yearsvs. 5.68±4.69 years,t=1.84,P=0.07; 34.18±16.52 kgvs. 25.03±18.06 kg,t=1.72,P=0.09). Two patients (9%) undergoing thoracoscopy required conversion to small thoracotomy. Perioperative outcomes, including operation time (151.64±74.59 minvs. 136.40±50.36 min,t=0.77,P=0.45), intraoperative blood loss (43.41±45.91 mlvs. 79.50±131.00 ml,t=–1.21,P=0.23), drainage duration (5.00±1.79 dvs. 4.90±2.36 d,t=0.23,P=0.82), length of hospital stay (8.41±3.11 dvs. 8.65±2.66 d,t=–0.27,P=0.79) showed no significant differences between the two groups. One patient suffered pneumonia in thoracoscopy group after operation and the rest patients recovered well without severe complications such as atelectasis, active bleeding and bronchopleural fistula. Conclusion Lobectomy via small thoracotomy and thoracoscopic approach is effective and safe for pediatric patients with equivalent short-term outcomes. While thoracoscopic surgery with relatively small incision achieves good cosmetic outcome.

  • Single utility port video-assisted thoracoscopic anatomic segmentectomy for lung diseases: 155 cases report

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility and safety of single utility port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) anatomic segmentectomy for lung diseases. MethodsWe performed a retrospective review of 155 patients undergoing single utility port VATS anatomic segmentectomy from January 2015 to December 2016. There were 62 males and 93 females with a mean age of 53 (24–82) years. Two ports were used. The camera was through the port for observation which was about 1.5 cm in length and located at the 7th or 6th intercostal space. The instruments were through port for operation that was about 3–4 cm in length and located at the 4th or 3th intercostal space. Pulmonary segment vessel and segmental bronchi were cut and stitched by Hemolock or linear cut stapler. Different segments were separated by linear cut stapler. Perioperative data were collected and analyzed. ResultsOne patient was performed suture under the auxiliary operating hole (three holes) because of pulmonary artery bleeding. The remaining 154 patients underwent single utility port VATS anatomic segmentectomy successfully. No conversion to open procedure or lobectomy was found and there was no perioperative mortality. The median operative time was 102 (65–150) min and the median blood loss in operation was 118 (50–300) ml. The thoracic drainage time was 3.8 (2–7) d and the median hospital stay after operation was 5.6 (3–9) d . Major morbidity occurred in 8 patients (5.2%) including hemoptysis (in 2 patients), pneumonia (in 2 patients), aerodermectasia (in 1 patient), pleural effussion (in 1 patient) and local atelectasis (in 1 patient). All of them above healed after symptomatic treatment. Patholocal examination showed there were 139 patients of primary lung carcinoma (pathologically staged as Tis-T1bN0M0), 9 patients of benign diseases and 7 patients of metastasis tumor. ConclusionSingle utility port VATS anatomic segmentectomy procedure is safe and feasible. It can be utilized as an option for those with non-small cell lung cancer staged Ⅰa and those unable to tolerate pulmonary lobectomy.

    ObjectiveTo share the clinical experience of thoracoscopic unidirectional posterolateral basal segmentectomy via inferior pulmonary ligament.MethodsAll the patients were in the healthy lateral position, with endoscopy holes in the 8th intercostal space of the middle axillary line and 2-3 cm operation holes in the 5th intercostal space of the front axillary line. Anatomical segmentectomy of the posterolateral basal vein, bronchus and artery was performed through the inferior pulmonary ligament upward in turn. The clinical data of this group were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsFrom December 2015 to October 2018, 32 patients underwent thoracoscopic unidirectional posterolateral basal segmentectomy, including 8 males and 24 females, aged 13-71 (52.6±13.7) years. All patients successfully completed the operation, including 9 patients of left lower pulmonary posterolateral basal segmentectomy, 23 patients of right lower pulmonary posterolateral basal segmentectomy. The operation time was 80-295 (133.4 ±40.5) minutes, intraoperative bleeding volume was 20-300 (52.6±33.8) mL, drainage time was 2-14 (4.2±2.3) days, hospitalization time was 4-15 (6.9 ±2.4) days. No death occurred during hospitalization. Postoperative complications included atelectasis in 1 patient and persistent pulmonary leakage over 3 days (4 or 6 days respectively) in 2 patients , chylothorax in 1 patient. All of them recovered smoothly after non-operative treatments. Postoperative pathology showed that 29 patients of primary adenocarcinoma or atypical adenomatoid hyperplasia, including 5 patients of adenocarcinoma in situ, 9 patients of micro-invasive adenocarcinoma, 12 patients of invasive adenocarcinoma, 3 patients of atypical adenomatoid hyperplasia. One patient was of intestinal metastatic adenocarcinoma, 1 patient of inflammatory lesion and 1 patient of bronchiectasis. 3-21(9.6±4.6) lymph nodes were resected in the patients with primary pulmonary malignant tumors. And no metastasis was found.ConclusionThe operation of thoracoscopic unidirectional posterolateral basal segmentectomy via inferior pulmonary ligament is easy. There is no need to open intersegmental tissue. It can protect lung tissue better. The operative method is worthy of clinical promotion.
