Abstract
Significant valvular or coronary artery disease may co-exist in patients presenting with symptomatic cholelithiasis. Isolated laparoscopic cholecystectomy in these cases is often associated with cardiac complications. Addressing the cardiac condition first may result in flaring up of cholecystitis during postoperative recovery and is associated with adverse outcomes. Open-heart surgery followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy during a single operative setting is an option in these situations. The aim of our study is to review the published articles for this strategy and to share our initial experience with two such patients. PubMed, OVID Medline, and Cochrane library database were used, and we searched these databases using Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms and keywords from the inception date until August 1, 2023, and did not restrict our search to any language, study type, sample size, or publication date. All the publications reporting concomitant laparoscopic cholecystectomy and open-heart surgery were identified and a systematic review was carried out. Our first case underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The second patient underwent a double valve replacement and laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Both the patients made an uneventful recovery, and are alive and doing well. Concomitant open-heart surgery and laparoscopic cholecystectomy in certain situations may be necessary and can be performed safely.

Use of Thromboelastography and Rotational Thromboelastometry in Otolaryngology: A Narrative Review. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11041119. [PMID: 35207392 PMCID: PMC8876674 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11041119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2022] [Revised: 02/09/2022] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
In the field of otolaryngology—head and neck surgery (ENT), coagulopathies present unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. In both hyper- and hypocoagulable patients, management of coagulopathies requires intricate attention to the nature of hemostatic competence. Common coagulation tests (CCTs) offer only a snapshot of hemostatic competence and do not provide a clear insight into the patient’s real-time hemostatic condition. Viscoelastic tests (VETs) offer a holistic and concurrent picture of the coagulation process. Although VETs have found prominent utilization in hepatic transplants, obstetrics, and emergent surgical settings, they have not been fully adopted in the realm of otolaryngology. The objective of this manuscript is to provide an overview of the literature evaluating the current utilization and possible future uses of VETs in the field of otolaryngology. The authors performed a comprehensive literature search of the utilization of VETs in otolaryngology and identified applicable studies that included descriptions of viscoelastic testing. Twenty-five studies were identified in this search, spanning topics from head and neck oncology, microvascular free flap reconstruction, obstructive sleep apnea, adenotonsillectomy, facial trauma, and epistaxis. The applicability of VETs has been demonstrated in head and neck oncology and microvascular free flap management, although their pervasiveness in practice is limited. Underutilization of VETs in the field of otolaryngology may be due to a lack of familiarity of the tests amongst practitioners. Instead, most otolaryngologists continue to rely on CCTs, including PT, PTT, INR, CBC, fibrinogen levels, and thrombin time. Learning to perform, interpret, and skillfully employ VETs in clinical and operative practice can greatly improve the management of coagulopathic patients who are at increased risk of bleeding or thrombosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the possibility and feasibility of one-stage cardiac and non-cardiac surgery. METHODS From July 1999 to August 2018, one hundred and eleven patients suffering from cardiac and non-cardiac diseases were treated by one-stage cardiac and non-cardiac operation in Department of Cardiac Surgery and Thoracic Surgery, General Surgery, Urinary Surgery, and Gynecology, Peking University First Hospital. There were 83 males (74.8%) and 28 females (25.2%), aged 41 to 84 years [mean age: (64.64±8.97) years]. The components of the cardiac disease included coronary heart disease, valvular heart disease, cardiac tumors, chronic constrictive pericarditis and congenital heart disease. The components of the non-cardiac diseases included lung benign and malignant diseases, thymoma and thymic cyst, breast cancer, chest wall giant hemangioma, digestive tract benign and malignant diseases, urinary system carcinoma and gynecological diseases. RESULTS Two patients died after operations in hospital; thus, the hospital mortality rate was 1.8%. One patient died of multiple organ failure on the 153th days after emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) combined with radical resection of bladder cancer. The other of pericardium stripping with lung cancer operation died of the multiple organ failure on the tenth day after surgery. The remaining 109 patients recovered and were discharged. There were 13 cases of complications during the days in hospital. The total operative morbidity was 11.7%: postoperative hemorrhage in 2 cases (1.8%), pulmonary infection and hypoxemia in 3 cases (2.7%), hemorrhage of upper digestive tract in 1 case (0.9%), incisional infection in 3 cases (2.7%), subphrenic abscess in 1 case (0.9%), and postoperative acute renal failure and hemofiltration in 3 case (2.7%). Of the 109 patients discharged, 108 patients were followed up. All the patients survived for 6 months, and 21 patients died due to tumor recurrence or metastasis within 1 to 5 years of follow-up, but no cardiogenic death. During the follow-up period, 1 patient developed cardiac dysfunction, 1 patient underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), 1 patient had cerebral hemorrhage due to excessive postoperative anticoagulation, and 1 patient suffered from incisional hernia. CONCLUSION One-stage surgeries in patients suffering from both cardiac and non-cardiac benign or malignant diseases are safe and possible with satisfactory short-term and long-term survival.

Abstract
Perioperative cardiovascular complications are important causes of morbidity and mortality associated with non-cardiac surgery, particularly in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Although preoperative cardiac risk assessment can facilitate the identification of vulnerable patients and implementation of adequate preventive measures, excessive evaluation might lead to undue resource utilization and surgical delay. Owing to conflicting data, there remains some uncertainty regarding the most beneficial perioperative strategy for patients with CAD. Antithrombotic agents are the cornerstone of secondary prevention of ischaemic events but substantially increase the risk of bleeding. Given that 5-25% of patients undergoing coronary stent implantation require non-cardiac surgery within 2 years, surgery is the most common reason for premature cessation of dual antiplatelet therapy. Perioperative management of antiplatelet therapy, which necessitates concomitant evaluation of the individual thrombotic and bleeding risks related to both clinical and procedural factors, poses a recurring dilemma in clinical practice. Current guidelines do not provide detailed recommendations on this topic, and the optimal approach in these patients is yet to be determined. This Review summarizes the current data guiding preoperative risk stratification as well as periprocedural management of patients with CAD undergoing non-cardiac surgery, including those treated with stents.

Abstract
Percutaneous cardiovascular interventions have changed dramatically in recent years, and the impetus given by the rapid implementation of novel techniques and devices have been mirrored by a refinement of antithrombotic strategies for secondary prevention, which have been supported by a significant burden of evidence from clinical studies. In the current manuscript, we aim to provide a comprehensive, yet pragmatic, revision of the current available evidence regarding antithrombotic strategies in the domain of percutaneous cardiovascular interventions. We revise the evidence regarding antithrombotic therapy for secondary prevention in coronary artery disease and stent implantation, the complex interrelation between antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with concomitant atrial fibrillation, and finally focus on the novel developments in the secondary prevention after structural heart disease intervention. A special focus on treatment individualization is included to emphasize risk and benefits of each therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The outcomes of patients on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) post-coronary stenting following emergency noncardiac surgery remain unclear. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included patients on DAPT post-coronary stenting who underwent emergency noncardiac surgery within 24 hours of diagnosis from April 2007 to March 2018 where DAPT was discontinued within <5 days for aspirin and 7 days for P2Y12 inhibitors. Our primary outcome was 180-day mortality in these patients. We investigated factors associated with bleeding within 180 days after surgery as our secondary outcome and exploratorily examined factors affecting 180-day mortality. RESULTS Of 62,528 patients who underwent any surgery under general anaesthesia during the 11-year study period, 133 patients (0.22% of all and 1.41% of emergency surgical patients) were analysed. Among the eligible patients, 180-day mortality was 9.8% (13/133). Eighteen patients (13.5%) developed bleeding within 180 days after surgery, which was the most common post-operative complication. Restarting antiplatelet agents <2 days post-operatively (OR, 4.51; 95% CI, 1.56-13.0; P = 0.005) and stent implantation at bifurcation lesions before surgery (OR, 3.28; 95% CI, 1.07-10.1; P = 0.04) were associated with post-operative bleeding. Patients on haemodialysis had the worse prognosis (hazard ratio, 5.73; 95% CI, 1.87-17.5; P = 0.002) in terms of 180-day mortality. CONCLUSION The 180-day mortality following emergency noncardiac surgery was approximately 10% in patients on DAPT post-coronary stenting. Restarting antiplatelet agents earlier than 2 days post-operatively and coronary stenting at bifurcation lesions were associated with bleeding within 180 days after surgery.

Abstract
Essentials An increasing number of patients requiring surgery receive antiplatelet therapy (APT). We analyzed 181 patients receiving presurgery platelet transfusions to reverse APT. No coronary thrombosis occurred after platelet transfusion. This justifies a prospective trial to test preoperative platelet transfusions to reverse APT. SUMMARY Background Patients receiving antiplatelet therapy (APT) have an increased risk of perioperative bleeding and cardiac adverse events (CAE). Preoperative platelet transfusions may reduce the bleeding risk but may also increase the risk of CAE, particularly coronary thrombosis in patients after recent stent implantation. Objectives To analyze the incidence of perioperative CAE and bleeding in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery using a standardized management of transfusing two platelet concentrates preoperatively and restart of APT within 24-72 h after surgery. Methods A cohort of consecutive patients on APT treated with two platelet concentrates before non-cardiac surgery between January 2012 and December 2014 was retrospectively identified. Patients were stratified by the risk of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE). The primary objective was the incidence of CAE (myocardial infarction, acute heart failure and cardiac troponine T increase). Secondary objectives were incidences of other thromboembolic events, bleedings, transfusions and mortality. Results Among 181 patients, 88 received aspirin, 21 clopidogrel and 72 dual APT. MACCE risk was high in 63, moderate in 103 and low in 15 patients; 67 had cardiac stents. Ten patients (5.5%; 95% CI, 3.0-9.9%) developed a CAE (three myocardial infarctions, four cardiac failures and three troponin T increases). None was caused by coronary thrombosis. Surgery-related bleeding occurred in 22 patients (12.2%; 95% CI, 8.2-17.7%), making 12 re-interventions necessary (6.6%; 95% CI, 3.8-11.2%). Conclusion Preoperative platelet transfusions and early restart of APT allowed urgent surgery and did not cause coronary thromboses, but non-thrombotic CAEs and re-bleeding occurred. Randomized trials are warranted to test platelet transfusion against other management strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the possibility and feasibility of simultaneous cardiac and noncardiac surgery. METHODS From August 2000 to March 2015, 64 patients suffering from cardiac and noncardiac diseases have been treated by simultaneous surgeries. RESULTS Two patients died after operations in hospital; thus, the hospital mortality rate was 3.1%. One patient with coronary heart disease, acute myocardial infarction, and a recurrence of bladder cancer accepted emergency simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), bladder cystectomy, and ureterostomy. He died of acute cerebral infarction complicated with multiple organ failure on the 153rd day after operation. The other patient with chronic constrictive pericarditis and right lung cancer underwent pericardial stripping and right lung lower lobectomy, which resulted in multiple organ failure, and the patient died on the tenth day postoperatively. The remaining 62 patients recovered and were discharged. The total operative morbidity was 17.2%: postoperative hemorrhage (n, % [1, 1.6%]), pulmonary infection and hypoxemia (2, 3.1%), hemorrhage of upper digestive tract (1, 1.6%), incisional infection (3, 4.7%), subphrenic abscess (1, 1.6%), and postoperative acute renal failure and hemofiltration (3, 4.7%). Of the 62 patients discharged, 61 patients were followed up. Eleven patients died with 10 months to 10 years during the follow-up. The mean survival time is 116.2±12.4 months. The cumulative survival rate is 50.8%. CONCLUSION Simultaneous surgeries in patients suffering from both cardiac and noncardiac benign or malignant diseases are safe and possible with satisfactory short-term and long-term survival.

Abstract
Despite a technically perfect procedure, surgical stress can determine the success or failure of an operation. Surgical trauma is often referred to as the "neglected step-child" of global health in terms of patient numbers, mortality, morbidity, and costs. A staggering 234 million major surgeries are performed every year, and depending upon country and institution, up to 4% of patients will die before leaving hospital, up to 15% will have serious post-operative morbidity, and 5-15% will be readmitted within 30 days. These percentages equate to around 1000 deaths and 4000 major complications every hour, and it has been estimated that 50% may be preventable. New frontline drugs are urgently required to make major surgery safer for the patient and more predictable for the surgeon. We review the basic physiology of the stress response from neuroendocrine to genomic systems, and discuss the paucity of clinical data supporting the use of statins, beta-adrenergic blockers and calcium-channel blockers. Since cardiac-related complications are the most common, particularly in the elderly, a key strategy would be to improve ventricular-arterial coupling to safeguard the endothelium and maintain tissue oxygenation. Reduced O2 supply is associated with glycocalyx shedding, decreased endothelial barrier function, fluid leakage, inflammation, and coagulopathy. A healthy endothelium may prevent these "secondary hit" complications, including possibly immunosuppression. Thus, the four pillars of whole body resynchronization during surgical trauma, and targets for new therapies, are: (1) the CNS, (2) the heart, (3) arterial supply and venous return functions, and (4) the endothelium. This is termed the Central-Cardio-Vascular-Endothelium (CCVE) coupling hypothesis. Since similar sterile injury cascades exist in critical illness, accidental trauma, hemorrhage, cardiac arrest, infection and burns, new drugs that improve CCVE coupling may find wide utility in civilian and military medicine.
