[Role of postoperative anticoagulant treatment following femoro-popliteal venous bypass. Interim evaluation of a controlled clinical study].
Eighty-eight patients underwent a classical reversed saphenous vein graft for femoro-popliteal occlusive disease and were enrolled in a controlled clinical trial. During the second postoperative week the patients were allocated randomly into one of two groups: group I consisted of 42 patients who received dicumarol and group II (46 patients) served as a control group without any anticoagulant treatment. The mean follow-up time was 24 months. After 12 months the cumulative patency rate was 82%, after 18 months 76% and after 24 months 76%; for patients receiving dicumarol treatment the respective figures were 92%, 86% and 86% and for those with no treatment 70%, 67% and 67%, the difference being significant. When the bypass operation was performed for limb salvage (clinical stages III and IV) the overall results were worse (12 months: 72%, 18 months: 68%, 24 months: 68%) than in stages II, II-III (12 months: 90%, 18 months: 85%, 24 months: 85%). In limb salvage surgery the positive effects of anticoagulant treatment were significant (with treatment: 12 months 87%, 18 months 86%, 24 months 86%; without treatment: 12 months 58%, 18 months 54%, 24 months 54%).

[Recurrent hemoptysis secondary to an aortobronchial fistula].
Aortobronchial fistula is a rare but serious cause of hemoptysis. It can develop from an aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta in the context of infections or it may appear as a sequel of surgical repair of congenital heart defects. Presenting symptoms include mild bronchial hemorrhages and recurrent chest pain, culminating in a normally fatal massive hemorrhage. Diagnosis by imaging is not always conclusive and clinical suspicion based on medical history is essential. Surgical placement of an endovascular stent graft is the treatment of choice. Post-surgical prognosis is good although there is a risk of recurrence in the case of superinfection. Topics: Aneurysm, False; Anticoagulants; Aorta, Thoracic; Aortic Coarctation; Aortic Diseases; Aortography; Blood Vessel Prosthesis Implantation; Bronchial Fistula; Combined Modality Therapy; Dicumarol; Embolization, Therapeutic; Fistula; Hemoptysis; Humans; Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Male; Middle Aged; Postoperative Complications; Recurrence; Venous Thrombosis | 2005 |
[Subarachnoid hemorrhage in a patient with corrected cyanotic congenital cardiopathy].
A 19-year-old man with congenital cyanotic heart disease experienced subarachnoid bleeding from a ruptured cerebral aneurysm. Immediate rebleeding with disordered hemostasis caused by prophylactic anticoagulation treatment was the cause of death. Medical progress in repairing congenital heart disease or attenuating its effects has increased the life expectancy of such patients. Anesthesiologists who are not specialized in this area may find themselves assuming responsibility for these patients during non-cardiac surgery of greater or lesser extension.

[Treatment of advanced Budd-Chiari syndrome by liver transplantation].
Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) with hepatic vein occlusion is a rare disorder that can effectively be treated in advanced stages with orthotopic liver transplantation. We report on 16 patients who received 18 liver grafts and were followed up for at least 2 years. In 7 patients a hematological disorder was confirmed by bone marrow biopsy. One patient died after 4 months due to cytomegalovirus pneumonia; another patient died after 2 years due to progressive liver failure after portal vein thrombosis. The actuarial 5-year survival rate is 87.5% compared to 85.3% in all other 710 orthotopic liver transplantations performed from September 1988 to December 1995 at our institution. Anticoagulation consisted of intravenous heparin and overlapping continuation with dicoumarin. Three patients received hydroxyurea for thrombocytosis, one patient for 1 week only early after the transplantation. Two postoperative abdominal hemorrhages required laparotomy. Two patients had to be retransplanted, one for thrombosis of the hepatic artery and portal vein after discontinuation of dicoumarin due to GI bleeding and one for hepatic vein thrombosis after insufficient dicoumarin intake. Terminal BCS represents a good indication for orthotopic liver transplantation; however, life-long, closely monitored anticoagulation is essential.

Preliminary experience with aspirin for anticoagulation in children with prosthetic cardiac valves.
Twenty-four children (ages 1 to 18 years, mean 12.2 years) underwent 27 operations for aortic, mitral, or combined aortic and mitral valve replacement. There was 1 operative death. Of the 23 operative survivors (12 aortic, 8 mitral, 3 combined valve replacement), only 5 were given warfarin for long-term anticoagulation. The remaining 18 (10 aortic, 8 mitral valve replacement) were given aspirin (plus dipyridamole in 5). Twelve of the 18 had at least one mechanical valve (11 Björk-Shiley and Beall valves; 1 Björk-Shiley valve was replaced with a Beall disc valve as the child grew). These 18 patients were followed for 1 to 59 months (mean, 20.4 months). There was no thrombotic, embolic, or bleeding complications. There were 2 late deaths (one cardiac). Review of the available literature indicates that in children with prosthetic cardiac valves, aspirin (with or without dipyridamole) provides adequate protection against thromboemboli and avoids the hemorrhagic complications associated with warfarin.

Quinton-Scribner arteriovenous shunts for hemodialysis. A review of 6.5 years' experience.
Quinton-Scribner shunts have been used as a reliable access to the blood-stream in 56 patients treated with intermittent hemodialysis in the years 1965-71. The mean age of 29 men and 27 women was 39 years. Two hundred and thirty-two cannulae showed a mean survival time of 11.2 months for 103 arterial cannulae and 9.0 months for 129 venous cannulae. 700 shunt clotting episodes occurred during 1157 patient months, i.e. 0.6 clotting episode/month. In 350 episodes where saline flushing could not remove the clot, the effect of treatment with streptokinase was considered evident in 79.7%. Shunt cannula infection was a common complication while aseptic cutaneous necrosis and bleeding from the cannulated vessel were seen less frequently. Both severe and less harmful bleeding episodes were seen as a complication of dicumarol therapy. The number of complications to streptokinase treatments was low. The advantages and disadvantages of the Quinton-Scribner shunt for hemodialysis are discussed.

Analysis of factors affecting limb salvage and mortality after embolectomy.
A series of 108 arterial embolectomies in 91 patients performed during 1960-64 and 1970-74 is presented. The Fogarty catheter was introduced in our clinic between these periods. Early mortality was 56 and 29%, respectively. Limb salvage rate according to our definition was 38 and 53%, respectively. We found a significantly higher mortality when embolies were located proximal to the profunda femoral artery compared to more distally located embolies. Amputation frequency was 4% after embolectomies performed within 12 hours, but 27% with longer duration of symptoms. Limb salvage rate was significantly higher in patients treated with anticoagulation. In conclusion it is stressed that local surgical therapy should be combined with adequate measures against cardiac failure and other systemic complications. This therapeutic principle is particularly important in cases with proximal embolies.

Management of thrombo-embolism after aortic valve replacement with the Björk-Shiley tilting disc valve. Medicamental prevention with dicumarol in comparison with dipyridamole - acetylsalicylic acid. Surgical treatment of prosthetic thrombosis.
Dicumarol anticoagulation poved very effective in the prevention of thromboembolic complications after aortic valve replacement with the Björk-Shiley tilting disc valve. We have, however, encountered six late deaths because of massive cerebral hemorrhage, which represent 3% of the patients who were maintained on dicumarol medication at that time. This unacceptable mortality prompted us to introduce two programmes, one without anticoagulation and another one with dipyridamole-acetylsalicylic acid. Furthermore, dicumarol was terminated in patients with haemorrhagic episodes, instable anticoagulation, pregnancy, and in those reguiring surgery. The results were disappointing, however, and the majority of the patients involved were therefore put on dicumarol medication. Eleven of the 64 consecutive patients taking dipyridamole - acetylsalicylic acid had thrombo-embolic episodes during a mean follow-up period of 9 months...
