A 7 cm vascular tumor was sealed with a small wound, and the 94-year-old was successfully rescued in the spike

"Well, why is this stomach beating inexplicably?" The ninety-year-old Dunbo discovered this abnormal phenomenon in his body and hurried to inform his family. The family did not dare to be idle, immediately went to the local hospital for treatment, and was quickly diagnosed with abdominal aortic aneurysm, which was very high in mortality once the tumor was large and ruptured. The team of Zhang Yan, director of the Department of Interventional Vascular Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University, successfully transported the blocker to a specific location for tumor sealing through 2 hours of operation, completely solving the risk of tumor rupture and death.

"Abdominal aortic aneurysm, that is, the aortic artery in the stomach blows up like a balloon, expands to a certain extent and will rupture, and the 24-hour survival rate is less than 50%." Zhang Yan reminded that patients with underlying diseases such as hypertension must seek medical treatment as soon as possible once the tumor pulse occurs.

Minimally invasive means of conveying the blocker

Successfully dismantled huge hemangiomas for the ultra-elderly

"The old man is quite old, he is already 94 years old. Should it be treated conservatively or surgically, if it is treated surgically, the surgical trauma is not large, can you tolerate surgery? "This is the most worrying and anxious issue for the families.

After receiving the elderly, Zhang Yan replied after asking about the medical history and carefully reading the information: "Combined with the examination results, the elderly can be diagnosed with abdominal aortic aneurysm, that is, the aorta in the stomach is blown up like a balloon, and it will rupture when it expands to a certain extent, and the 24-hour survival rate is less than 50%. The tumor of the elderly has reached 7 centimeters, which has reached the surgical standard. The risk of rupture of the tumor body in the elderly is high, and once the abdominal aortic aneurysm ruptures, it is nine deaths, and it is difficult to effectively treat it, which is the most worrying point in the conservative treatment process. At present, the general situation of the elderly can be, the preoperative assessment has been perfected and up to standard, and surgical treatment is recommended. ”

At present, there are two surgical methods for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms: surgical bypass and endoluminal treatment, based on the older age of the elderly, the interventional vascular surgery team chose endoluminal treatment. This is a kind of minimally invasive surgery, the delivery of the natural cavity of the human blood vessels, the devices such as the sealer are transported to the vicinity of the hemangioma to open, isolate the hemangioma, avoid its rupture, and thus achieve the purpose of treatment. The surgery is less traumatic, and if the operation is successful, you can be discharged from the hospital on the third or fourth day after the operation. The family of the elderly learned about the treatment and decided to undergo surgery.

The 94-year-old successfully sealed the hemangioma after surgery, and the pulsation in the abdomen disappeared.

After a comprehensive assessment and preoperative discussion, Chief Physician Zhang Yan and Deputy Chief Physician Li Chengzhi, together with the Department of Anesthesiology and ICU, with the active cooperation of the interventional operating room, successfully defused the "bomb" on the patient after 2 hours of hard work, thus turning the ninety-year-old into a safe situation.

Stomach pain may be "fatal"

Unsung abdominal throbbing needs to be vigilant!

Li Chengzhi said that many people think that stomach pain is a common thing, but sometimes stomach pain will also kill people, and this "life-threatening pain" is likely to be a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. Aneurysms can grow in blood vessels throughout the body, with the highest incidence of abdominal aorta and the most likely to be ignored as simple "stomach pain", thus delaying the life-threatening condition.

Once the abdominal aortic aneurysm ruptures, it can be fatal in a few minutes at the earliest, even in today's developed medical technology, the mortality rate is still as high as 50%, it can be said that the aneurysm is a "time bomb" hidden in the body, threatening the life of patients at any time.

Li Chengzhi reminded that the typical symptoms of abdominal aortic aneurysms are pulsatile masses in the abdomen, and when there is unexplained abdominal distension, low back pain and pulsatile masses in the abdomen, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for timely treatment.
