    Fatores de risco pré-operatórios para mediastinite após cirurgia cardíaca: análise de 2768 paciente
    (2012) TIVERON, Marcos Gradim; FIORELLI, Alfredo Inacio; MOTA, Eduardo Moeller; MEJIA, Omar Asdrubal Vilca; BRANDAO, Carlos Manuel de Almeida; DALLAN, Luis A. O.; POMERANTZEFF, Pablo A. M.; STOLF, Noedir A. G.
    Background: Longitudinal median sternotomy is the most common surgical approach for access to heart disease treatment. The deep wound infections in postoperative period of cardiovascular surgery are a serious complication requiring high costs during treatment. Different studies have indicated some risk factors for the development of mediastinitis and preoperative variables are currently under investigation. Objective: The aim of this study is to identify the preoperative risk factors for postoperative development of mediastinitis in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting and valve replacement. Methods: This observational study represents a cohort of 2768 consecutive operated patients. The period considered for analysis was from May 2007 to May 2009 and there were no exclusion criteria. Analysis was performed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression model of 38 preoperative variables. Results: Thirty-five (1.3%) patients developed mediastinitis and 19 (0.7%) associated with osteomyelitis. The patient age average was 59.9 +/- 13.5 years and the EuroSCORE of 4.5 +/- 3.6. Hospital mortality was 42.8%. The multivariate analysis identified three variables as independent predictors of postoperative mediastinitis: intra-aortic balloon pump (OR 5.41, 95% CI [1.83 -16.01], P = 0.002), hemodialysis (OR 4.87, 95% CI [1.41 to 16.861, P = 0.012) and extracardiac vascular intervention (OR 4.39,95% CI [1.64 to 11.761,P = 0.003). Conclusion: This study showed that necessity of preoperative hemodynamic support with intra-aortic balloon, hemodialysis, and extracardiac vascular intervention were risk factors for development of mediastinitis after cardiac surgery.

    Experiência inicial com a técnica de Pomerantzeff para redução do tamanho do átrio esquerdo gigante
    (2012) SOUSA, Jocerlano Santos de; POMERANTZEFF, Pablo Maria Alberto; BRANDAO, Carlos Manuel de Almeida; GONCALVES, Lisandro Azeredo; TIVERON, Marcos Gradim; VIEIRA, Marcelo Luiz Campos; TARASOUTCHI, Flavio; STOLF, Noedir Antonio Groppo
    Introduction: The most common indication for surgical correction of giant left atrium is associated with mitral valve insufficiency with or without atrial fibrillation. Several techniques for this purpose are already described with varying results. Objective: To present the initial experience with the tangential triangular resection technique (Pomerantzeff). Methods: From 2002 to 2010, four patients underwent mitral valve operation with reduction of left atrial volume by the technique of triangular resection tangential in our service. Three patients were female. The age ranged from 21 to 51 years old. The four patients presented with atrial fibrillation. Ejection fraction of left ventricle preoperatively ranged from 38% to 62%. The left atrial diameter ranged from 78mm to 140mm. After treatment of mitral dysfunction, the left atrium was reduced by resecting triangular tangential posterior wall between the pulmonary veins to avoid anatomic distortion of the mitral valve or pulmonary veins, reducing tension in the suture line. Results: Average hospital stay was 21.5 +/- 6.5 days. The mean cardiopulmonary bypass time was 130 +/- 30 minutes. There was no surgical bleeding or mortality in the postoperative period. All patients had sinus rhythm restored in the output of cardiopulmonary bypass, maintaining this rate postoperatively. The average diameter of the left atrium was reduced by 50.5% +/- 19.5%. The left ventricular ejection fraction improved in all patients. Conclusion: Initial results with this technique have shown effective reduction of the left atrium.
