Avoidance of sternotomy while preserving complete revascularization remains challenging in multivessel coronary disease. Technical issues and in-hospital outcomes of total coronary revascularization v...
From November 2019 to September 2021, coronary artery bypass grafting via left anterior minithoracotomy on cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic cardiac arrest was performed in 102 patients (92 male...
Left internal thoracic artery (...
This novel surgical technique allows complete coronary revascularization in the broad majority of multivessel disease patients without sternotomy. TCRAT can be introduced into clinical routine safely....
Resuscitative thoracotomy (RT) is a salvage procedure following traumatic cardiac arrest. We aim to evaluate RT trends and outcomes in adults with cardiac arrest following penetrating trauma to determ...
We reviewed the National Trauma Data Bank (2017-2021) for adults (≥16 years old) with penetrating trauma and prehospital cardiac arrest, stratified by the performance of a RT. We performed multivariab...
13,115 patients met our inclusion criteria. RT occurred in 12.7% (n = 1,664) of patients. Rates of RT trended up over the study period. Crude mortality was similar in RT and Non-RT patients (95.6% vs....
Despite up-trending rates, a resuscitative thoracotomy may not improve mortality in adults with penetrating, traumatic cardiac arrest. University teaching hospitals are nearly twice as likely to perfo...
Deep sternal wound infection is a rare but feared complication of median thoracotomies and is usually caused by microorganisms from the patient's skin or mucous membranes, the external environment, or...
We retrospectively evaluated the patients with deep sternal wound infections at our institution between March 2018 and December 2021. The inclusion criteria were the presence of deep sternal wound inf...
In 20 patients (23%) the infection was caused by S. epidermidis, in 17 patients (19.54%) by S. aureus, in 3 patients (3.45%) by Enterococcus spp., in 14 patients (16.09%) by gram-negative bacteria, wh...
Methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis was found in 25 cases (28,74%), while methicillin-resistant S. aureus was isolated in only three cases (3,45%). The average hospital stay for monomicrobial infecti...
S. epidermidis and S. aureus remain the main pathogen in deep sternal wound infections. The number of wound swabs and tissue biopsies correlates with accurate pathogen isolation. With radical surgical...
Intercostal nerve cryoablation (INC) has shown promise as an adjunct method for analgesia in adults undergoing thoracotomy, but has yet to be widely used in children for this indication. We hypothesiz...
A retrospective review was performed of children who underwent thoracotomy for cancer diagnosis at a freestanding children's hospital from 2018 to 2023. Patient characteristics, intraoperative data, a...
Twenty-six patients underwent 38 procedures at a median age of 16 years (range 5-21 years). INC was performed in 23 cases over a median of five intercostal levels (range 2-7). Total oral morphine equi...
INC is a feasible and safe adjunct for children undergoing thoracotomy for cancer. INC is associated with reduced postoperative opioid utilization with respect to both inpatient use and outpatient pre...
Osteomyelitis of the sternum may arise either as a primary condition or secondary to median thoracotomy after cardiac surgery, with the latter being decidedly more frequent. Deep sternal wound infecti...
Our work group developed a surgical technique to remove the complete infected sternal bone in deep sternal wound infections. We therefore prospectively examined the en bloc resected sternal specimens....
Forty-seven sternums could be investigated. The median age of the patients in the cohort was 66 (45-81) years and there were 10 females and 37 males. Two methods were developed to examine the histolog...
Our study proved that the deep sternal wound infection may cause a ubiquitous inflammation of the sternal bone. The harvest of the left mammary artery may worsen the extent and intensity of infection....
Conversion to open is a potentially serious intraoperative event associated with minimally invasive pulmonary lobectomy. However, the impact of institutional expertise on conversion to open has not be...
All adults who underwent minimally invasive pulmonary lobectomy were identified from the 2017 to 2019 Nationwide Readmissions Database. Annual institutional caseloads of open and minimally invasive lo...
Of an estimated 52,886 patients who met study criteria, 4.9% required conversion to open. Compared to others, conversion to open patients were slightly younger (66 vs 67 years) and more commonly male ...
The present study found institutional minimally invasive pulmonary lobectomy caseload to be associated with decreased rates of conversion to thoracotomy, emphasizing the relevance of minimally invasiv...
Clamshell thoracotomy (CST) is an emergency procedure performed during traumatic cardiac arrest. Emergency physicians and surgeons are expected to perform this procedure in the Emergency Department. H...
The model was produced from inexpensive, commercially available materials as well as ADAMgel; a custom, recyclable, inexpensive tissue analogue. The model was tested across 19 physicians, mostly consu...
Participants had varied prior knowledge and experience before testing the model. Results showed that 89.47% (n = 17) of trainees felt the model was a reasonable substitute for practice and 100% (n = 1...
The model proved a successful teaching tool, improving physicians' knowledge and confidence with performing CST. This high fidelity, low cost model demonstrated that a high standard simulation teachin...
To determine whether the rate of progression of scoliosis is higher following thoracotomies and sternotomies in children....
We undertook a retrospective review of 1744 patients from a tertiary paediatric referral unit who had sternotomies or thoracotomies from 2005 to 2010 to identify those with scoliosis and to determine ...
1419/1744 (81.4%) patients (55% M, 45% F) had post-op chest X-rays. 25% had a thoracotomy, and 75% had a sternotomy. 5.8% had scoliosis at their most recent chest X-ray (mean Cobb angle 20° (range 11-...
Thoracotomies and sternotomies do not appear to increase the rate of progression of scoliosis in these patients....
III. Radiographs illustrating scoliosis progression....
Resuscitative thoracotomy (RT) is a high-acuity low occurrence (HALO) procedure with which general surgical resident (GSR) experience and confidence are unknown. We sought to identify and describe thi...
An online regional needs assessment survey was conducted for an RT curriculum for GSRs. The survey was developed by a group of trauma stakeholders and revised after being piloted on a small, represent...
The survey response rate was 43%, reflecting the viewpoints of GSRs at 8 major training centers across the Northeast. Only 13% of respondents were interested in pursuing a career in Trauma and Critica...
This needs assessment demonstrates a lack of experience and confidence with RT, a strong learner interest in an RT curriculum, and a desire for experiential learning methods. Learning objectives are d...
Minimally invasive sutureless aortic valve replacement with the Perceval bioprosthetic heart valve (MISUAVR) is commonly performed through a right anterior thoracotomy (AT). However, a lateral thoraco...
