Abstract:
Objective To evaluate efficacy,feasibility and safety of the self-made percutaneous catheterized thrombectomy divice in animal model for thrombus removal. Methods Seven dogs were selected,with acute massive pulmonary embolism animal models created by injecting thrombi into the pulmonary arterial trunk via percutaneous femoral vein approach. After half an hours the catheter sheath was inserted into the occluded pulmonary artery through right femoral vein in 5 dogs,left femoral vein in 1 dog and right internal jugular vein in another one. The procedure began to remove the thrombi with simultaneous recording the thrombectomy time and the blood volume drainage. Blood gass was tested before and after embolization together with those of thrombi removement,continuously monitored pulmonary arterial pressure and intermittently performed angiography. The mean time form vascular recanalization to euthanasia was 2 hours,and then the lung specimens were resected for histological examination. Results One animal died of pulmonary arterial penetration during thrombi removal,but others were all alive by the end of the test. Mean time of removing thrombi was 2.4 minutes with mean volume blood drainage of 84 ml. Angiograms showed the approximately complete patency of the pulmonary arterial trunk after reopenning of occlusion but still with remnont thrombi within distal branches and arterial pressure with blood gas returned to normal level. Pathology revealed the recanalization of pulmonary arterial trunk but with thromi still staying in the distal branches,and effusion around the arteries. Conclusions The self-made percutaneous catheterized thrombectomy device is effective,feasible and comparatively safe in the treatment of acute massive pulmonary embolism in this primary test.
