Abstract

Two patients underwent surgery for iatrogenic vascular injuries at the thoracic outlet. Injuries occurred during mediastinoscopy in one patient (male, aged 60 years) and removal of a Portovac catheter in the other (female, aged 49 years). We performed partial sternotomy in both cases to expose the proximal of a. carotis communis and vena cava superior, respectively. After distal and proximal control of the vessels, the injured vessel was primarily sutured in the first patient, and the tip of the catheter was removed through a venotomy incision in the latter. No postoperative complications occurred in both patients. Partial sternotomy incision provides an appropriate and quick access to the injured vessels and surrounding structures at the thoracic outlet.

Özet

Torasik outlette gelişen iyatrojenik vasküler yaralanma nedeniyle ameliyat edilen iki olgu sunuldu. Yaralanma bir olguda (60 yaşında erkek hasta) mediyastinoskopi işlemi sırasında, diğerinde (49 yaşında kadın hasta) de Portovac kateterin çıkarılması sırasında gelişti. Parsiyel sternotomi yapılarak sırasıyla a. karotis kommunis proksimaline, vena kava süperiora ulaşıldı. Distal ve proksimal kontrol sağlandıktan sonra, ilk olguda arter primer olarak tamir edildi; ikinci olguda da kateterin ucu ven lümeninden çıkartıldı. İki hastada da ameliyat sonrası dönemde sorun görülmedi. Torasik outletteki yaralanmalarda parsiyel sternotomi, yaralanan damarlara ve çevre yapılara hızlı ve iyi bir ulaşım sağlamaktadır.
