The study lasted for 15 years between September 2003 and August 2018. The main cause of injury is road traffic accident with a rate of 48.8%(21/43); and steering wheel injury accounted for 71.4%(15/21). Preoperative diagnosis was based on computer scaning, echocardiography in 26 cases. In remaining 17, initial judgement of cardiac wound was done because of obvious cardiac tamponade, or massive hemothorax with shock; and was proved during emergent thoracotomy. Surgical intervention was started within one hour in cases of 27.9%(12/43). Main procedures included pericardial decompression, clear off hemopericardium, and cardiorrhaphy in 36 cases; relief of pericardial herniation with strangulation of the heart in 3 cases, and repair of diaphragmatic hernia involving pericardium in 4 cases. Of all 43 cases, 7 cases underwent Emergent Department Thoracotomy(EDT) with a resuscitative rate of 42.9%(3/7). \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000Overall mortality rate was 32.6%(14/43); 4 cases died at EDT, 5 cases intraoperatively, and 5 cases postoperatively. The cause of deaths was directly related to BCI in 9 cases(associated with transected aorta in 1 case); and associated injuries in 5 cases including liver trauma(3 cases), brain trauma(1 case), and cervical spinal trauma(1 case). In 4 of 29 survivors, intracardiac injury was proved by echocardiography postoperatively, including mitral valve in 2 cases, tricuspid in 1 case, and ventricular septum in 1 case. Of these 4 cases 2 received valvuloplasty 2 weeks and 3 months after initial operation respectively; and other 2 restored spontaneously which were ensured by echocardiography. Postoperative complications included atelectasis in 3 and infectious endocarditis in 1 respectively. They were cured . All survivors were followed up from 6 to 36 months, with a normal cardiac function and healthy condition. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Conclusion \u0000Early diagnosis and emergent thoracotomy in time are essential to improve survival rate. Preoperative massive transfusion and pericardiocentesis are not advocated. If it is necessary, EDT should be exercised decidedly. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Key words: \u0000Wounds Blunt cardiac injury Cardiac tamponade Emergent thoracotomy","PeriodicalId":10181,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovaescular Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73790774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There were 10 male and 20 female patients, aging from 15 to 65 years with a mean age of(45.67±12.25) years. Of these, 8 were performed through right RT and 22 through PS. SPSS 23.0 was used to analysis gender, age, left ventricle ejection fraction, New York Heart Association class, perioperative complications, total operative duration, cardiopulmonary bypass duration, aortic cross clamp time, ICU monitoring time and postoperative hospital stay of the two groups. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000Both groups successfully completed minimally invasive double-valve replacement surgery, without middle-opening thoracic surgery.

They were divided into two groups according to the approach of obtaining histopathological tissuefor diagnosis.49 cases in the experimental group were obtained by EBUS-TBNA, 92 cases in the control group were done by video assisted thoracic surgery (40 cases, 43.5%), mediastinoscopy (1 case, 1.1%), and open procedure (51 case, 55.4%). Survival outcome, time of waiting for the treatment and lengthof stay were analyzed. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000There were109 males, 32 females, the range of age is from 16 to 79 years old[(56.21±11.48)years]. 62 lesions located in the upper lobe, 12 in the middle lobe, 56 in the lower lobe, 11 in the middle-lower/-upper lobes. Considering the T stage, there are 7 cases of T1, 61 cases of T2, 45 cases of T3, and 26cases of T4, 2 patients with Tx stage.Compared with conventional approach, EBUS-TBNA saved 10.78 days from admission to the time of receiving treatment [(4.62±0.66)days vs. (15.40±1.61)days, P<0.05], and saved 18.13 days of length of stay [(5.30±0.76)days vs. (23.43±2.44)days, P<0.05]. 5-year survival rate was 31.0% for traditional group and 27.5% for EBUS-TBNA group, there was no significant difference between two groups(P=0.308). \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Conclusion \u0000EBUS-TBNA couldsave the waiting days from admission to the time of receiving treatment, and also shorten the total length of stay. EBUS-TBNA was more efficient than conventional approaches (VATS, mediastinoscopy or open procedure) for diagnosing non-central small cell lung cancer with enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Key words: \u0000Small cell lung cancer; Diagnosis, fenl; EBUS-TBNA","PeriodicalId":10181,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovaescular Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79368765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
