Anesthetic Consideration in Case of Large Lymphangioma in Right Atrioventricular Groove: A Case Report

Background Cardiac tumor is a rare disease but it causes various hemodynamic changes depending on location and size. Compression of the right sided heart can lead to impaired venous return and consequent systemic and coronary vascular collapse. Case A 62-year-old male who had cardiac lymphangioma on right atrio-ventricular groove. Upon entering the operating room, he was admitted to the tamponade physiology with tachycardia and hypotension. Opioid based anesthesia was performed to minimize myocardial depression, and myocardial function was continuously monitored through Transesophageal echocardiography and pulmonary artery catheter to safely wean the cardio pulmonary bypass (CPB) machine. Conclusion Anesthesiologists should be able to predict and respond appropriately to physiological hemodynamic changes according to the location and size of cardiac tumor.

Introduction: To observe how vacuum assisted venous drainage (VAVD) may influence the flow in a cardiopulmonary bypass circuit with different size of venous lines and cannulas. Methods: The experimental circuit was assembled to represent the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit routinely used during cardiac surgery. Wall suction was applied directly, modulated and measured into the venous reservoir. The blood flow was measured with a flow-meter positioned on the venous line. The circuit prime volume was replaced with group O date expired re-suspended red cells and Plasmalyte 148 to a hematocrit of 28% to 30%. Results: In an open circuit with gravity siphon venous drain, angled cannulae drain more than straight ones regardless the amount of suction applied to the venous line (16 Fr straight cannula (S) drains 90 ml/min less than a 16 Fr angled (A) with a siphon gravity). The same flow can be obtained with lower cannula size and higher suction (i.e. 12 A with and -30 mmHg). Tables have been created to list how the flow varies according to the size of the cannulas, the size of the venous tubes, and the amount of suction applied to the system. Conclusions: Vacuum assisted venous drainage allows the use of smaller cannulae and venous lines to maintain a good venous return, which is very useful during minimally invasive approaches. The present study should be considered as a preliminary attempt to create a scientific-based starting point for a uniform the use of VAVD.

Popliteal artery thrombosis may present as a complication of an osteochondroma located in the vicinity of the knee joint. This is a case report of a 26-year-old man with symptoms of the right lower extremity ischaemia without a previous history of vascular disease or trauma. Plain radiography, magnetic resonance angiography and Doppler ultrasonography documented the presence of an osteochondrous structure of the proximal tibial metaphysis, which displaced and compressed the popliteal artery, causing its occlusion due to intraluminal thrombosis..The patient was operated and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of osteochondroma.
