- The Nuss procedure made safer: an effective and simple sternal elevation manoeuvre(2012) TEDDE, Miguel L.; CAMPOS, Jose Ribas Milanez de; WIHLM, Jean-Marie; JATENE, Fabio BiscegleThe Nuss procedure requires the creation of a substernal tunnel for bar positioning. This is a manoeuvre that can be dangerous, and cardiac perforation has occurred in a few cases. Our purpose was to describe two technical modifications that enable the prevention of these fatal complications. A series of 25 patients with pectus excavatum were treated with a modification of the Nuss procedure that included the entrance in the left haemithorax first, and the use of the retractor to lift the sternum, with the consequent lowering displacement of the heart. These modified techniques have certain advantages: (i) the narrow anterior mediastinum between the sternum and the pericardial sac is expanded by pulling up the sternum; (ii) the thoracoscopic visualization of the tip of the introducer during tunnel creation is improved; (iii) the rubbing of the introducer against the pericardium is minimized; (iv) the exit path of the introducer can be guided by the surgeon's finger and (v) haemostasis and integrity of the pericardial sac can be more easily confirmed. We observed that with these manoeuvres, the risk of pericardial sac and cardiac injury can be markedly reduced.
- Diaphragmatic pacing stimulation in spinal cord injury: anesthetic and perioperative management(2012) TEDDE, Miguel L.; VASCONCELOS FILHO, Paulo; HAJJAR, Ludhmila Abrahao; ALMEIDA, Juliano Pinheiro de; FLORA, Gustavo Fagundes; OKUMURA, Erica Mie; OSAWA, Eduardo A.; FUKUSHIMA, Julia Tizue; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; GALAS, Filomena Regina Barbosa Gomes; JATENE, Fabio Biscegli; AULER JR., Jose Otavio CostaOBJECTIVE: The standard therapy for patients with high-level spinal cord injury is long-term mechanical ventilation through a tracheostomy. However, in some cases, this approach results in death or disability. The aim of this study is to highlight the anesthetics and perioperative aspects of patients undergoing insertion of a diaphragmatic pacemaker. METHODS: Five patients with quadriplegia following high cervical traumatic spinal cord injury and ventilator-dependent chronic respiratory failure were implanted with a laparoscopic diaphragmatic pacemaker after preoperative assessments of their phrenic nerve function and diaphragm contractility through transcutaneous nerve stimulation. ClinicalTrials.gov:NCT01385384. RESULTS: The diaphragmatic pacemaker placement was successful in all of the patients. Two patients presented with capnothorax during the perioperative period, which resolved without consequences. After six months, three patients achieved continuous use of the diaphragm pacing system, and one patient could be removed from mechanical ventilation for more than 4 hours per day. CONCLUSIONS: The implantation of a diaphragmatic phrenic system is a new and safe technique with potential to improve the quality of life of patients who are dependent on mechanical ventilation because of spinal cord injuries. Appropriate indication and adequate perioperative care are fundamental to achieving better results.
- Electric Ventilation: indications for and technical aspects of diaphragm pacing stimulation surgical implantation(2012) TEDDE, Miguel Lia; ONDERS, Raymond P.; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; LAGE, Silvia Gelas; BALLESTER, Gerson; BROTTO, Mario Wilson Iervolino; OKUMURA, Erica Mie; JATENE, Fabio BiscegliObjective: Patients with high cervical spinal cord injury are usually dependent on mechanical ventilation support, which, albeit life saving, is associated with complications and decreased life expectancy because of respiratory infections. Diaphragm pacing stimulation (DPS), sometimes referred to as electric ventilation, induces inhalation by stimulating the inspiratory muscles. Our objective was to highlight the indications for and some aspects of the surgical technique employed in the laparoscopic insertion of the DPS electrodes, as well as to describe five cases of tetraplegic patients submitted to the technique. Methods: Patient selection involved transcutaneous phrenic nerve studies in order to determine whether the phrenic nerves were preserved. The surgical approach was traditional laparoscopy, with four ports. The initial step was electrical mapping in order to locate the ""motor points"" (the points at which stimulation would cause maximal contraction of the diaphragm). If the diaphragm mapping was successful, four electrodes were implanted into the abdominal surface of the diaphragm, two on each side, to stimulate the branches of the phrenic nerve. Results: Of the five patients, three could breathe using DPS alone for more than 24 h, one could do so for more than 6 h, and one could not do so at all. Conclusions: Although a longer follow-up period is needed in order to reach definitive conclusions, the initial results have been promising. At this writing, most of our patients have been able to remain ventilator-free for long periods of time.
- Punção aspirativa guiada por ultrassom endobrônquico no diagnóstico e estadiamento de linfadenopatia mediastinal: experiência inicial no Brasil(2012) TEDDE, Miguel Lia; FIGUEIREDO, Viviane Rossi; TERRA, Ricardo Mingarini; MINAMOTO, Helio; JATENE, Fabio BiscegliObjective: Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is a new method for the diagnosis and staging of mediastinal lymph nodes. The objective of this study was to evaluate the preliminary results obtained with EBUS-TBNA in the diagnosis of lesions and mediastinal lymph node staging. Methods: We evaluated patients with tumors or mediastinal adenopathy, diagnosed with or suspected of having lung cancer. The procedures were performed with the patients under sedation or under general anesthesia. Material was collected by EBUS-TBNA, after which it was prepared on slides, fixed in either absolute alcohol (for cytology) or formalin (for cell-block analysis). Results: We included 50 patients (30 males). The mean age was 58.3 +/- 13.5 years. We performed 201 biopsies of 81 lymph nodes or mediastinal masses (mean of 2.5 punctures/biopsy). The quantity of material was considered sufficient for cytology in 37 patients (74%), 21 (57%) of whom were thus diagnosed with malignancy. Of the remaining 16 patients, 1 was diagnosed with tuberculosis, 6 entered clinical follow-up, and 9 underwent further investigation (2 diagnosed with neoplasm-false-negative results). The yield was higher when the procedure was performed for diagnostic purposes, as well as being higher in patients with lesions in multiple stations and in biopsies involving the subcarinal lymph node station. One patient had endobronchial bleeding, which was resolved with local measures. There were no deaths among the patients evaluated. Conclusions: This preliminary experience shows that EBUS-TBNA is a safe procedure. Our diagnostic yield, although lower than that reported in the literature, was consistent with the learning curve for the method.
- Decannulation in Tracheal Stenosis Deemed Inoperable Is Possible After Long-Term Airway Stenting(2013) TERRA, Ricardo Mingarini; BIBAS, Benoit Jacques; MINAMOTO, Helio; WAISBERG, Daniel Reis; TAMAGNO, Mauro Federico Luis; TEDDE, Miguel Lia; PEGO-FERNANDES, Paulo Manuel; JATENE, Fabio BiscegliBackground. Decannulation is the ultimate therapeutic goal for patients who undergo stenting because of inoperable benign tracheal stenosis. In this study, our objectives were to evaluate whether long-term airway stenting allows decannulation in patients with benign tracheal stenosis who were deemed inoperable and to identify possible predictive factors for successful decannulation (SD). Methods. Retrospective cohort study including all patients with inoperable benign tracheal stenosis who underwent tracheal stenting in our tertiary-care university-based institution from 1998 to 2008. For benign stenosis, we use only silicone stents (T tubes, Dumon stents, and Y stents). The main outcome was SD, which was defined as removal of the tracheal stent followed by absence of respiratory symptoms and no requirement for new dilation procedures for at least 6 months. A Kaplan-Meier curve was built to evaluate SD in 5 years, and we used a Cox model to evaluate predictors for a SD. Results. Ninety-two patients were included, and during the study period 21 were decannulated. However, 2 of them had to undergo new airway procedures and were considered to represent failure. Therefore, 19 patients were successfully decannulated. According to the Kaplan-Meier estimate, the SD rate in 5 years was 27.5%. The mean follow-up time after SD was 34.3 +/- 33.9 months (range, 6 to 108 months). Cox regression showed only 1 significant factor: tracheostomy before stent insertion caused a threefold increase in the likelihood of the patient remaining with a tracheal stent (p = 0.048). Conclusions. Tracheal stenting may be considered a curative therapeutic approach in as many as 27.5% of patients with inoperable benign tracheal stenosis.

- Objective evaluation of patients with palmar hyperhidrosis submitted to two levels of sympathectomy: T3 and T4(2011) ISHY, Augusto; CAMPOS, Jose Ribas Milanez de; WOLOSKER, Nelson; KAUFFMAN, Paulo; TEDDE, Miguel Lia; CHIAVONI, Camila Ribeiro; JATENE, Fabio BiscegliThis study compares the results obtained of video-assisted sympathectomy performed on two distinct ganglion levels (third vs. fourth thoracic ganglion) in the treatment of palmar hyperhidrosis (PH), through a blind randomized clinical trial. All participants were randomized into two groups of 20 patients (G3 and G4) and underwent the operation, and were followed for 12 months. We used an objective method for measuring sweat, checking the transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and evaluated the quality-of-life (QoL) before and after the operation. All patients (n=40) ceased suffering from PH after surgery, with statistical difference when we compared the values of TEWL palmar preoperatively with their respective values at one week, one month, six months and 12 months. The main side effect observed was compensatory hyperhidrosis (CH), which was most frequent in G3 after 12 months of follow-up. There was an improvement in QoL since the first evaluation of the postoperative period with no difference between groups. Both techniques were effective in the treatment of PH, generating objective reduction of TEWL regardless of the ganglion operated. Sympathectomy G3 had a higher incidence of CH, yet the improvement in QoL was similar in both groups.
- The search for stability: bar displacement in three series of pectus excavatum patients treated with the Nuss technique(2011) TEDDE, Miguel Lia; CAMPOS, Jose Ribas Milanez de; DAS-NEVES-PEREIRA, Joao-Carlos; ABRAO, Fernando Conrado; JATENE, Fabio BiscegliOBJECTIVES: To compare bar displacement and complication rates in three retrospective series of patients operated on by the same surgical team. METHOD: A retrospective medical chart analysis of the three patient series was performed. In the first series, the original, unmodified Nuss technique was performed. In the second, we used the ""third point fixation"" technique, and in the last series, the correction was performed with modifications to the stabilizer and stabilizer position. RESULTS: There were no deaths in any of the series. Minor complications occurred in six (4.9%) patients: pneumothorax with spontaneous resolution (2), suture site infection (2), and bar displacement without the reoperation need (2). Major complications were observed in eight (6.5%) patients: pleural effusion requiring drainage (1), foreign body reaction to the bar (1), pneumonia and shock septic (1), cardiac perforation (1), skin erosion/seroma (1), and displacement that necessitated a second operation to remove the bar within the 30 days of implantation (3). All major complications occurred in the first and second series. CONCLUSION: The elimination of fixation wires, the use of shorter bars and redesigned stabilizers placed in a more medial position results in a better outcome for pectus excavatum patients treated with the Nuss technique. With bar displacement and instability no longer significant postoperative risks, the Nuss technique should be considered among the available options for the surgical correction of pectus excavatum in pediatric patients.
- General thoracic surgery workforce: training, migration and practice profile in Brazil(2015) TEDDE, Miguel Lia; PETRERE JR., Oleno; PINTO FILHO, Darcy Ribeiro; PEREIRA, Sergio Tadeu L. Fortunato; MONTEIRO, Rosangela; SASSAKI, Ana Maria; TOGORO, Silvia Yukari; TRINDADE, Evelinda; SAAD JR., Roberto; JATENE, Fabio BiscegliOBJECTIVES: This study is aimed at drawing the profile of the Brazilian general thoracic surgeon. This experience has been fruitful in other areas, helping attract manpower and to better serve the interests of other Societies. This is the first survey of this kind in Brazil and in Latin America. METHODS: An electronic invitation was sent to the members of the Brazilian Society of Thoracic Surgery to answer a web-based questionnaire and physicians potentially practising thoracic surgery, with 82 questions including demographic data, medical education, training in general and thoracic surgery, continued professional education, practice profile, research activities and certifications, participation in medical societies, income/compensation and career satisfaction. Quantitative and qualitative analyses are presented. RESULTS: The estimated level of participation was 82% (468). The mean age of the active general thoracic surgeon is 43.2 (range 45.3 +/- 11.4) years. Women comprised 8% (37) of respondents, and 60% (277) of the participants had graduated from public medical schools. Four states nationwide trained 88% (391) of the thoracic surgeons. Only 32% (149) of the surgeons work exclusively with thoracic surgery. The public health system is the main provider of income for thoracic surgeons. Only 11 of 27 states have an adequate, although poorly distributed, number of thoracic surgeons. CONCLUSIONS: Although Brazil has a reasonable number of general thoracic surgeons, inequalities in their distribution through the country arise as one of the most concerning problems of the speciality. The results of this study show that leadership actions and consistent government policies are required to improve work conditions and provide efficient workforce planning.
