Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the accuracy and application value of the left atrial appendage(LAA) occlusion simulation in dynamic fluid in vitro based on left atrial appendage models. Methods:The preoperative two/three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography(2D/3D-TEE) images of 21 patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous LAA occlusion were retrospectively analyzed. LAA models with different materials (silicone-hydrogel LAA models, silicone LAA models and Tangoplus LAA models) were obtained by 3D printing. After simulation evaluation set models in a dynamic fluid system to simulate the occlusion operation, the type of occluder was predicted, the correlation between them and the final occluder used in the operation was analyzed.According to 2D/3D-TEE monitoring in 21 patients, the compression ratio of occluders was measured and the residual leakage around occluders was observed. With the same type occluder as in surgery, the compression ratio of occluders and residual leakage around the occluders in the three LAA models were observed and compared with intraoperative measurements, the descriptive and correlation analyses were conducted.Results:The simulation score of silicone-hydrogel LAA models was higher than those of silicone LAA models and Tangoplus LAA models. The occluder size in silicone-hydrogel LAA models was more correlated to the size used in the operation( r=0.937, P<0.001) than silicone LAA models ( r=0.918, P<0.001) and Tangoplus LAA models ( r=0.895, P<0.001). With the same size of occluder, there was no significant difference between the compression ratio of the occluder in silicone-hydrogel LAA models and intraoperative ( P=0.908). In 21 patients, 7 cases of residual leakage of occluder were observed during operation, while 4 cases were observed in silicone-hydrogel LAA, 5 cases were observed in silicone LAA models and 5 cases in Tangoplus LAA models. Conclusions:Preoperative simulation system of left atrial appendage occlusion based on silica gel-hydrogel model is helpful for preoperative decision-making, simulation exercise and post-operative evaluation of percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion.
