Multifaceted spiral suture: A hemostatic technique in managing placenta praevia or accrete: A retrospective study.

ABSTRACT: Patients with total placenta previa and past history of cesarean delivery often experience overwhelming hemorrhage during childbirth. In order to control intraoperative and postoperative bleeding, we propose a novel multifaceted spiral suture of the lower uterine segment which directly sutures the bleeding site.To evaluate the efficacy and safety of multifaceted spiral suture, a retrospective study was conducted using data from 33 patients with total placenta praevia and caesarean history.All participants underwent multifaceted spiral suture and no patient experienced uncontrollable bleeding or underwent hysterectomy.The average blood loss of all patients involved was 1327.3 ± 1244.1 mL. Five patients reported blood loss exceeding 3000 mL (15.15%), and the highest reached to 4000 mL. No complications such as fever, pyometra, synechiae, or uterine necrosis were observed. Three cases (3/33, 9.09%) reported hematuria in the first 3 days following surgery and spontaneous resolution were observed within 3 to 7 days following insertion of indwelling catheters. No complaints were received during 6-month follow-up visits.These findings suggest that multifaceted spiral suture is a practical, feasible, and promising technique in potentially minimizing postpartum bleeding and avoiding hysterectomy for patients with placenta praevia or accrete.

A modified suture technique for the treatment of patients with pernicious placenta previa and placenta accreta spectrum: a case series.

Project description:BackgroundPernicious placenta previa complicated by placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) often leads to hysterectomy or even maternal death due to massive bleeding. In recent years, the application of balloons has received increasing attention. It is easier to use and has reasonably good effect. However, for some patients, especially those who still have some placental residue, there might still be active bleeding. To solve this problem, we propose a method of pressure sutures around the balloon to provide a better hemostasis effect.MethodsAn observational study was conducted on patients with pernicious placenta previa and PAS at the Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Beijing, China, between January 2018 and January 2021. During surgery, an intrauterine balloon was used to compress the hemorrhage site, and two or more absorbable sutures were placed around the uterus to apply strong pressure on the balloon. This method is an updated modification of the Lu-suture which uses a Foley catheter balloon and only one suture. The main improvements include choosing different kinds of balloons depending on various conditions and the addition of a suture below the balloon to provide much stronger pressure and prevent the balloon slipping out through the dilated cervix.ResultsA total of 10 women underwent the procedure. The mean estimated intraoperative blood loss was 1,190±548 mL. Post-surgery, the blood loss was less than 200 mL in all patients. The mean blood transfusion [packed red blood cells (pRBC)] required was 2.2±2.6 units. The mean hemostatic time was 8.1±3.4 minutes.ConclusionsThe modified suture technique provided an easy, cheap, and efficient surgical choice for patients with pernicious placenta previa and PAS.

Arthroscopic suture anchor tenodesis: loop-suture technique.

Project description:With advancements in arthroscopic surgery, arthroscopic biceps tenodesis with suture anchor recently has been reported to be a reasonable option for the treatment of biceps pathologies, especially for those that are symptomatic or accompanied by a rotator cuff tear. We introduce our technique of arthroscopic biceps tenodesis with suture anchor that we call the loop-suture technique, which is constructed with 1 loop strand and another sutured strand. This technique can help to improve biceps grip and simultaneously minimize longitudinal splitting of the tendon. In addition, it is relatively simple and can be performed with the use of conventional devices and arthroscopic portals used for rotator cuff repair, without the formation of additional portals or a separate incision for the tenodesis.

Caesarean hysterectomy for placenta praevia/accreta using an approach via the pouch of Douglas.

Project description:UnlabelledPlacenta praevia/accreta is associated with significant maternal morbidity and mortality and is a common cause of obstetric hysterectomy. This paper describes posterior retrograde abdominal hysterectomy, a new surgical technique for caesarean hysterectomy, in 11 women with placenta percreta, increta or accreta There were no intraoperative or postoperative maternal complications, and only one fetus required admission to the neonatal unit, for prematurity. Our technique in placenta praevia/accreta allows easy identification of the vagina and early uterine devascularisation, as well as safe resection of the involved urinary bladder in women with placenta percreta showing bladder penetration. Analytical studies are needed to confirm our findings.Tweetable abstractPosterior retrograde abdominal hysterectomy in women with placenta praevia/accreta may enable safer surgery.

Vertical Continuous Meniscal Suture Technique.

Project description:Meniscal injuries are common in the population, representing the major cause of functional impairment in the knee. Vertical longitudinal injuries of the meniscus can be stable or unstable. When extensive, they are commonly unstable and can lead to clinical signs of significant functional disability. Vertical longitudinal injuries have the best prognosis for repair, especially when occurring in the meniscal periphery, called the red-red zone. A recently developed type of meniscal suture device called Meniscus 4 A-II enables the surgeon to perform a meniscal suture from the inside-out continuously, reducing surgical time. Because it allows the surgeon to use a single and inexpensive device to repair the entire injury, costs are significantly reduced. Here, an approach to carry out continuous meniscal repair with vertical sutures is described. This technique warrants excellent stability to the meniscal repair, increasing the chances of a successful outcome. We believe that the popularization of the repair technique from the inside out using the Meniscus 4-All device will help many surgeons around the world save menisci that otherwise would have a great chance of being excised, since it is a cheap, reproducible, and easy-to-handle device.

Hybrid suture technique vs simple suture technique for antero-inferior labral tears: Two years' clinical outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundWe previously reported a hybrid suture technique, wherein mattress and simple suturing are used to create Mason-Allen configuration, with low recurrence rates. This comparative study looking at the two years' clinical outcomes of arthroscopic anterior labral repair using the hybrid suture technique versus simple suture technique.MethodsWe identified 103 patients who underwent arthroscopic anterior labral repair from 2010 to 2015 with 2-year follow-up. The patients were categorized into two groups: hybrid suture technique (65 patients) and simple suture technique (38 patients). Clinical outcomes measures included UCLA shoulder score, Constant Shoulder Score, Numerical Pain Rating Scale, and Oxford Instability score.ResultsMean age of the patients was 27.02 ± 9.76 years (17-63), with 91 males and 12 females. At 24 months, both groups showed significant improvement in post-operative clinical scores compared to pre-operation. The patients in hybrid sutures technique demonstrated significant improvement in Constant Shoulder Score, UCLA shoulder score and Oxford Instability score compared to simple suture group at 3 months follow up. (121.98 ± 21.05 vs 109.32 ± 21.15, p < 0.05; 65.5 ± 19 vs 57.4 ± 17.6, p < 0.05; 27.3 ± 5.7 vs 23.7 ± 5.0, p < 0.05; 29.3 ± 8.9 vs 33.4 ± 8.2, p < 0.05). The postoperative recurrence rate was comparable between both groups (hybrid suture group 7.81% vs simple suture group 7.84%).ConclusionsArthroscopic anterior labral repair with hybrid suture technique offers significant early improvements in clinical scores and low recurrence rate compared to simple suture technique at 2-year follow-up.Level of evidenceLevel III; Retrospective Cohort Design; Treatment study.

Tension band wiring versus suture anchor technique in patellar inferior pole fracture: Novel double row suture anchor technique.

Project description:IntroductionPatellar inferior pole fractures are challenging to obtain sufficient fixation. The purpose of this retrospective, case-controlled study was to compare the clinical and radiological outcomes between tension band wiring (TBW) and our novel double-row suture anchor (SA) technique in patellar inferior pole fractures.Materials and methodsThis retrospective study included patients who underwent TBW or SA fixation for patellar inferior pole fractures from 2015 to 2019. A total of 63 patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical procedure: the TBW group (n = 35) and the SA fixation group (n = 28). The visual analog scale score, range of motion of the knee, Lysholm score, Kujala patellofemoral score, and patient satisfaction score were evaluated for clinical and functional outcomes. Radiological outcomes included the time to radiological union, loss of reduction, and the Insall-Salvati (IS) ratio.ResultsSignificant improvements in clinical outcomes were observed in both groups with no significant differences. Bone union was achieved in all patients, and there was no significant difference in the time to radiological union and the IS ratio between the two groups. All patients in the TBW group underwent additional surgeries for implant removal. However, none of the patients in the SA group underwent implant removal or experienced skin irritation.ConclusionOur novel double-row SA technique could provide comparable fixation strength and good clinical outcomes, with fewer complications in patellar inferior pole fractures. This novel SA technique is a satisfactory alternative treatment for patellar inferior pole fractures.

Continuous Meniscal Suture Technique of the Knee.

Project description:The menisci are fibroelastic structures interposed between the articular surfaces of the femur and tibia. They absorb impact and transmit load. Meniscal injury may compromise function and cause rapid joint degeneration, leading to the development of secondary osteoarthritis. Surgical treatment of meniscal injury is usually performed by arthroscopy, and meniscectomy or meniscal suture may be associated with such treatment. Meniscal suture should be considered when the injury compromises the proper functioning of the meniscus to recover its anatomy and function. Different meniscal suture techniques exist; the most widely used are the inside-out, outside-in, and all-inside techniques. The gold-standard repair technique is the inside-out technique. A drawback of this technique is the need to alternate between intra- and extra-articular structures for every stitch, which makes it even more laborious. We describe the continuous meniscal suture technique, also called "meniscal stitching," for a medial meniscal bucket-handle injury. This technique is performed from the inside out and allows the surgeon to perform multiple stitches with the same thread quickly and effectively. This surgical technique is performed using a single meniscal suture device that was developed by our group, called the "Meniscus 4 A-II" device.

Needle Adjustment Free (NAF) running suture technique (PAN suture) in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.

Project description:BackgroundIt is proposed a new running suture technique called Needle Adjustment Free (NAF) technique, or PAN suture. The efficiency and the safety were evaluated in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.MethodsThis new running suture technique avoids the Needle Adjustment method used in traditional techniques. The new continuous suture technique (11 patients) was compared with the traditional continuous suture method (33 patients) used in both transperitoneal and retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) in terms of suture time (ST), warm ischemia time (WIT), blood loss (BL), open conversion rate and post-op discharge time, post-op bleeding, post-op DVT, ΔGFR (affected side, 3 months post-op). Differences were considered significant when P < 0.05.ResultsST in the PAN suture group was 30.37 ± 16.39 min, which was significant shorter (P = 0.0011) than in the traditional technique group which was 13.68 ± 3.33 min. WIT in the traditional technique group was 28.73 ± 7.89 min, while in the PAN suture group was 20.64 ± 5.04 min, P = 0.0028. The BL in entirety in the traditional technique group was 141.56 ± 155.23 mL, and in the PAN suture group was 43.18 ± 31.17 mL (P = 0.0017). BL in patients without massive bleeding in the traditional technique group was significantly greater than in the PAN suture group at 101.03 ± 68.73 mL versus 43.18 ± 31.17 mL (P = 0.0008). The open conversion rate was 0 % in both groups. There was no significant difference between the two groups in postoperative discharge time, post-op bleeding, post-op DVT, ΔGFR (affected side, 3 months post-op).ConclusionsThe NAF running suture technique, or PAN suture, leading to less ST, WIT and BL, which was shown to be more effective and safer than the traditional technique used for LPN. A further expanded research with larger sample size is needed.

Effectiveness of fibrin sealant as a hemostatic technique in accelerating endoscopic submucosal dissection-induced ulcer healing and preventing stricture in the esophagus: A retrospective study.

Project description:The aim of the present retrospective study was to evaluate the effectiveness of conservative electrocoagulation followed by porcine fibrin sealant (FS) as a protective hemostatic technique for wounded microvessels in promoting the healing of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD)-induced ulcer, and preventing esophageal strictures that follow ESD. A total of 203 patients with early esophageal cancer or precancerous lesions were retrospectively analyzed. The 1-month ulcer healing and stricture rates were compared between the two groups (combined hemostats and electrocautery groups). The 1-month complete healing rate was 77.0% in the combined hemostats group and 52.6% in the electrocautery group (P=0.003). The use of FS and a smaller resected range (<3/4 circumference) was associated with a better 1-month healing rate. For patients with a ?3/4 circumference mucosal defect, the esophageal stricture rate was 31.6% (6/19) in the combined hemostats group and 25.0% (2/8) in the electrocautery group. There was no difference in the stricture rate (P=0.737) and dilation time (P=0.733) between the two groups. In conclusion, the application of conservative electrocoagulation followed by porcine FS as a wound-protection technique promoted ESD-induced ulcer healing in the esophagus. However, this combined hemostatic technique was not superior to the conventional hemostatic method in preventing post-ESD stricture in patients with large esophageal mucosal defects.
