Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of video- assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy in patients with isolated pulmonary arteriovenous fistula (PAVF). Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 10 patients with PAVF in the department of thoracic surgery of the first affiliated hospital of Nanjing Medical University between January 2010 and December 2016. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) and three-dimensional reconstruction were performed before operation, and all patients accepted video-assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy. Results The diagnosis of PAVF was identified by CTA, with maximum diameter of tumor of 3.0- 5.0 cm. No perioperative mortality or postoperative complications were observed including bleeding, hemoptysis, serious air leakage, and bronchopleural fistula. The lesions were completely removed in all 10 patients, and no patients converted to open surgery intraoperatively. Blood gas analysis showed that oxygen partial pressure before operation, in the first day after operation and the third month after operation was (62.5 ± 6.7), (70.2 ± 4.8) and (75.4 ± 4.8) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133kPa) respectively; which was significantly increased successively (P<0.05). After a follow-up time of 3-30 months, no recurrences were observed. Conclusions Video- assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy guided by preoperative CTA and three-dimensional reconstruction is a very effective method for the treatment of isolated PAVF.
