Abstract:
Objective:To summarize the experience of reoperation for 23 cases of cardiac myxoma recurrence.Methods:From January 2002 to December 2018, 1106 patients with cardiac myxoma underwent surgical treatment. Among them, 23 patients underwent reoperation after recurrence. 10 males and 13 females with an average age of (50.5±10.8) years old. There were 22 patients with secondary operation and 1 patient with four operations. 3 cases with mitral insufficiency and 1 case with tricuspid insufficiency. There were 20 patients with NYHA Ⅰ-Ⅱ and 3 patients with Ⅲ-Ⅳ. A total of 1 083 patients with cardiac myxoma undergoing primary operation were selected as the control group. The operation time, cardiopulmonary bypass time, aortic clamping time, ICU monitoring time, ventilator assisted breathing time, postoperative hospital stay, in-hospital mortality and cardiac ejection fraction at discharge were compared between the two groups.Results:8 cases (34.8%) had the first onset in the left atrial septum, and 15 cases (65.2%) in other parts. Recurrence site: left atrium in 17 cases(73.9%), left ventricle in 2 cases (8.7%), right atrium in 3 cases (13.0%), right ventricle in 1 case (4.3%). Reoperation accounted for 2.1% of cardiac myxoma surgery in the same period. The median recurrence time of 13 patients was 24 months. During the same period, mitral valve replacement was performed in 2 cases, mitral valvuloplasty in 1 case and tricuspid valve plasty in 1 case. The average operation time was (3.9±2.8) h, cardiopulmonary bypass time was (107.6±33.8) min, aortic clamping time was (64.9±23.8) min, ICU monitoring time was (20.1±16.0) h, ventilator assisted breathing time was (16.9±8.5) h, cardiac ejection fraction at discharge was 0.51±0.10, postoperative hospital stay was (8.3±1.5) days. The median follow-up time was 5 (1-18) years. One case (4.3%) died of all causes. There was no significant difference in ICU monitoring time, ventilator assisted breathing time, discharge cardiac ejection fraction, postoperative hospital stay and hospital mortality between reoperation patients and one operation ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Atypical cardiac myxoma has a high recurrence tendency after operation. Regular follow-up after the first operation of cardiac myxoma is a necessary means to early detect recurrence and avoid complications. Reoperation after recurrence can still achieve satisfactory results.
