Abstract： Objective To summarize the clinical outcomes of maze procedure using bipolar radiofrequency ablation accompanied with valve replacement for the surgical treatment of permanent atrial fibrillation（AF） and rheumatic valve diseases. Methods A total of 124 patients with permanent AF and rheumatic valves diseases undergoing surgical treatment from March 2006 to October 2010 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were randomly divided into ablation group and control group using coin method with 62 patients in each group. The mean atrial fibrillation duration was（56.1±47.1） months in ablation group, and patients in this group underwent maze procedure using bipolar radiofrequency ablation and valve replacement. The mean atrial fibrillation duration was（43.8±25.6） months in control group, and patients in this group underwent only valve replacement. Demographic characteristics, cardiopulmonary bypass（CPB）time, aortic cross-clamping（ACC）time, mechanical ventilation time, intensive care unit（ICU） length of stay, postoperative complications and follow-up outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results The demographic characteristics of the two groups were not statistically different （P＞0.05）. The CPB time and ACC time between the two groups were not statistically different （P＞ 0.05）. The postoperative hospital stay of ablation group was significantly longer than that of control group （15.8±6.1 d vs. 12.9±3.1d，P=0.001）. No patient needed permanent pacemaker implantation in either group. Postoperative ejection fraction of ablation group was significantly higher than that of control group（59.6%±9.2% vs. 55.5%±5.4%，P＜ 0.01）. The rate of sinus rhythm maintenance at 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months during follow-up in ablation group were 88.5%, 87.5%, 87.1% and 82.4% respectively, 3.3%, 2.2%, 0.0%, and 0.0% in control group respectively, which was statistically different between the two groups（P＜ 0.05）.

Methods: The atria of 40 cases were mapped by three dimensional electroanatomic mapping system. In order to analyse the mechanism of atrial tachycardia and perform the ablation of the earliest excited point in focal atrial tachycardia and isthmus in macroreentry atrial tachycardia. 28 cases ablated by conventional procedure were selected as controlled group. The success rate and fluoroscopic time were compared between the two groups. Results: Focal atrial tachycardia was seen in 38 patients. The sites of origin from right atrium were at the coronary sinus ostium in 8 cases (20%), septal in 10 cases (25%), lateral wall in 8 cases (20%), superior vena cava ostium in 4 cases (10%), posterior wall in 4 cases (10%). One case had 3 types of atrial tachycardia (2.5%). The sites of origin from left atrium were at right pulmonary vein ostium in 1 case (2.5%), left pulmonary vein ostium in 1 case (2.5%), left auricular appendage in 1 case (2.5%). 2 cases were macroreentry atrial tachycardia (5%). Ablation was performed successfully (100%) without any complication. No recurrence was found during a followup of 416 months. Success rate in conventional group was 89.3%(Plt;0.05)。Comparing the CARTO group and conventional group, the fluoroscopic time was shorter, ( 13.8±5.5 ) min vs ( 30.4±12.9 ) min （Plt;0.05).Conclusion: The mechanism of atrial tachycardia can be evaluated quickly and accurately. Ablation can be performed safely and effectively guided by CARTO.
A new cool-tip radiofrequency (RF) ablation therapeutic instrument based on impedance control algorithm is introduced in this paper. The equipment is composed of hardware system and software system. The RF power output and real time data acquisition are completed by the hardware system, while the software is used mainly to finish the control of the ablation range, the core of which is impedance control algorithm, and it also used to complete the display of the real time data in the course of the experiment. The impedance algorithm has solved the problem of impedance increased rapidly during the RF ablation, which has also expanded the scope of ablation. The pig liver experiments showed that the impedance control algorithm had strong adaptability. It also obtained a result of ablation range up to 3.5~4.5 cm single needle. It has the high clinical practical value of one-time inactivation of 3~5 cm tumor.
ObjectiveTo investigate influence of left atrial contraction on lone atrial fibrillation recurrence after minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation. MethodsClinical data of 57 patients with lone atrial fibrillation underwent minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation in Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Xinhua Hospital, Medical School of Shanghai Jiaotong University from September 2010 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the absence of mitral A velocity, patients were divided into Group A (absence of mitral A velocity, 20 patients with their age of 56.32±17.18 years, including 5 females) and Group B (mitral A velocity exists, 37 patients with their age of 60.33±11.22 years, including 17 females). Minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation via thoracoscope were performed in all patients. Preoperative and postoperative left atrial diameter (LAD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and mitral A velocity, as well as clinical and follow-up data were recorded and compared. ResultsPreoperative clinical characters were not statistically different between two groups (P > 0.05). All the patients were followed up for 24.3±8.8 months (range, 12-26 months). Rate of postoperative atrial fibrillation recurrence in group A was significantly higher than that in group B (20.0% vs. 2.7%, P < 0.05). LAD and LVEF of 57 patients at 6 months after surgery were significantly higher than preoperative LAD and LVEF (P < 0.05), but there was no statistic difference between two groups (P > 0.05). ConclusionDamage of left atrial contraction was related to lone atrial fibrillation recurrence after minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation. Absence of mitral A velocity could be a crucial predictor of postoperative lone atrial fibrillation recurrence.
ObjectiveTo analyze the long-term efficacy and its influencing factors in the treatment of the permanent atrial fibrillation(AF) using monopolar radiofrequency ablation during concomitant cardiac valve replacement surgery with rheumatic heart disease. MethodsClinical data of the 116 patients with rheumatic heart disease and permanent AF who underwent modified maze procedure using monopolar radiofrequency ablation and concomitant cardiac valve replacement in the affiliated hospital of Qingdao university from October 2004 to December 2010 were collected and retrospectively analyzed, including 43 males and 73 females with their age of 50.5±7.5 years. Electrocardiogram (ECG) with 12-lead and echocardiography data, as well as the related complications, cardiac function and life quality were collected at the time of the immediately after the operation, discharge from hospital, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year postoperatively and every year after the operation. Patients were divided into eliminating group of AF (including sinus rhythm and nodal rhythm) and AF group according to the results of the ECG at the time of the ending follow-up. In the eliminating group of AF, there were 52 patients (16 males, 36 females) with their age of 48.4±7.3 years, and in the AF group, there were 50 patients (22 males, 28 females) with their age of 51.9±7.1 years. Analyzed the difference of the related factors between the two groups using statistical methods and tried to find the factors affecting the long-term clinical efficacy of the operation. ResultsThree patients died in hospital (one died of the hemolysis, acute renal insufficiency and hyperkalemia. One died of the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome caused by the acute renal insufficiency. And the other one died of the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome caused by the repetitive ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation on the day of the automatic discharge). Three patients died during the follow-up (one died after the reoperation because of the perivalvular leakage in other hospital, and the causes of death in the two others could not be catched). One patient occurred cerebral embolism, and the other one occurred cerebral hemorrhage in the af group during the follow-up. There was statistical significance between two group at the aspects of age, preoperative AF duration, preoperative left atrium diameter, time of the cardiopulmonary bypass and time of the cross-clamp ascending aorta. In multivariate analysis, age and preoperative left atrium diameter are risk factors affecting the long-term efficacy. ConclusionThe treatment of the permanent atrial fibrillation using monopolar radiofrequency ablation concomitant cardiac valve replacement with rheumatic heart disease is effective and has good long-term efficacy. The factors of affecting the long-term clinical efficacy are the patient's age and the diameter of left atrium.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of bipolar radiofrequency ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation (AF) during the open-heart surgery. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 137 heart disease patients combined with AF (21 patients combined with left atrial thrombus) who underwent one-stage operation of open-heart surgery and bipolar radiofrequency ablation from May 2009 to June 2014. There were 61 males and 76 females at age of 35-73(48.3±11.6)years. The patients received amiodarone treatment for 6 months after surgery and regular follow-up. The sinus rhythm conversion rate, cardiac function before and after operation, survival rate after operation, the incidence of thromboembolism and other complications were recorded. ResultsThe average cardiopulmonary bypass time during operation was 122±38 min, the average aortic crossclamp time was 78±22 min, and the average radiofrequency ablation time was 20±4 min. The atrial fibrillation was successfully ablated in 130 patients on the same day of surgery with conversion rate of 94.9%. The atrial fibrillation was converted to sinus rhythm in 114 patients, and converted to junctional cardiac arrhythmia in 16 patients. Two patients died during the perioperative period with death rate of 1.5% in hospital. The conversion rate was 81.5% (110/135), 88.1% (111/126), 83.1% (74/89), and 83.0% (39/47) respectively at one month, six months, one year, and two years after surgery, respectively. The survival rate was 96.6% (86/89) and 93.6% (44/47) at one year and two years after surgery. No thromboembolism occurred during the long-term follow-up period. ConclusionBipolar radiofrequency ablation procedure selectively performed during open-heart surgery can cure atrial fibrillation, only increases cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic crossclamp time slightly. The short- and mid-term efficacy is satisfactory with high conversion rate of sinus rhythm. The long-term effect still needs further observation.
Objective To compare the effect of monopolar and bipolar radiofrequency ablation in patients with atrial fibrillation and concomitant rheumatic heart disease. Methods The clinical data of 261 patients who underwent valve replacement and radiofrequency Maze Ⅲ procedure in Shanghai First People's Hospital from 2010 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the radiofrequency ablation system, patients were assigned to a monopolar radiofrequency ablation group (n=209, 129 males, 80 females, aged 59.6±9.7 years) and a bipolar radiofrequency ablation group (n=52, 36 males, 16 females, aged 58.6±11.2 years). After procedures, clinical factors such as patients' basic information, perioperative complication and mortality, the elimination rate of atrial fibrillation were measured. Results There was no statistic difference in perioperative morbidity and mortality between two groups. The ablation time of the monopolar radiofrequency ablation group was longer than that of the bipolar group (29.7±3.3 minvs. 22.3±7.8 min,P=0.035). Postoperative diameter of left atrium was reduced in both groups. Compared with the monopolar radiofrequency ablation group, bipolar group had a better elimination rate of atrial fibrillation at three months and one year follow-up (82.0%vs. 66.3%,P=0.037; 80.0%vs. 59.6%,P=0.008). Conclusion Valve replacement combined with radiofrequency Maze Ⅲ procedure is safe and efficient. Compared with monopolar radiofrequency ablation, bipolar radiofrequency ablation has advantage on elimination rate of atrial fibrillation, ablation time and cardiopulmonary bypass time.
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and clinical significance of bipolar radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of left ventricular aneurysm with ventricular arrhythmias guided by CARTO mapping system. Methods From September 2009 to December 2015, 56 patients with ventricular aneurysm following myocardial infarction were enrolled. All patients suffered different levels of angina pectoris symptoms evaluated by Holter (the frequencies of ventricular arrhythmias more than 3 000 per day). They were divided into two groups according to random ballot and preoperative communication with patients' family members: a bipolar radiofrequency ablation group (n=28, 20 males, 8 females, mean age of 61.21±1.28 years) receiving off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG), ventricular aneurysm surgery combined with bipolar radiofrequency ablation, and a non-bipolar radiofrequency ablation group (n=28, 22 males, 6 females, mean age of 57.46±1.30 years) receiving OPCABG and single ventricular aneurysm surgery. The grade of cardiac function and ventricular arrhythmia was compared between the two groups during pre-operation, discharge and follow-up. Results All patients were discharged successfully. There was no in-hospital death in both two groups. One patient in the non-radiofrequency group had cerebral infarction. All patients were re-checked with Holter before discharge and the frequency of ventricular arrhythmias significantly decreased compared to that of pre-operation in both groups, and was more significant in bipolar radiofrequency ablation group (1 197.00±248.20 times/24 h vs. 1 961.00±232.90 times/24 h, P<0.05). There was significant difference in duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay between the two groups (P<0.05). The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) and left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD) significantly improved (P<0.05) after operation in both groups. Conclusion The clinical efficacy of bipolar radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of ventricular aneurysm with ventricular arrhythmia guided by CARTO mapping is safe and effective, but its long-term outcomes still need further follow-up.
Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of different surgical methods in the treatment of early-stage gallbladder carcinoma (GBC). Methods The clinical data of 43 patients with early-stage GBC who received treatment in Peking University People’s Hospital from Jan. 2010 to Dec. 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the surgical methods, the patients were divided into laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC)+lymph node dissection (LND)+radiofrequency ablation (RA) group, open cholecystectomy (OC)+LND+RA group, and OC+LND+liver resection (LA) group. Operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, surgical complications, and long-term survival were compared among the 3 groups. Results All the 43 patients performed successful surgery without perioperative death. ① Operation duration and postoperative hospital stay. The differences of operation duration and postoperative hospital stay among the 3 groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with the LC+LND+RA group, operation duration and postoperative hospital stay of the OC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+LR group were longer (P<0.017), but there was no statistically significant difference between the OC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+LR group (P>0.017). ② Intraoperative blood loss. The difference of intraoperative blood loss among the 3 groups was statistically significant (P<0.001). Compared with the OC+LND+LR group, the intraoperative blood loss was lower in the LC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+RA group (P<0.017), but there was no significant difference between the LC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+RA group (P=0.172). ③ Postoperative complications. There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications among the 3 groups (P=0.326). ④ Long-term survival. There was no significant difference in survival curves among the 3 groups (P=0.057). Conclusions The method of cholecystectomy combined with LND and RA of gallbladder bed can achieve the radical effect on early-stage GBC (Tis–T2). Laparoscopic surgery, in particular, has shorter operation duration and faster recovery.
