Study objective: to present the immediate and mid-term results of onestage surgical treatment of patients in the volume of CEE and CABG based on a differentiated approach to patient selection.Materials and methods: in FCCVS n.a. S.G. Suhanov, Perm developed an algorithm for choosing treatment tactics in patients with combined atherosclerotic lesions of the coronary and brachiocephalic arteries. According to this algorithm, for the period from 01.07.2014-01.01.2021, one-stage correction of CABG + CEE was performed in 104 patients. The primary endpoints were all-cause death, acute myocardial infarction (MI), transient ischemic attack (TIA), and stroke. Hospital and midterm results were analyzed. The average follow-up time in the study of mid-long-term results was 40.3 ± 20.4 months.Results: in the study of hospital outcomes, the mortality rate was 0%. There were recorded 3 (2.9%) cases of perioperative stroke and 1 (0.9%) case of myocardial infarction. There were no cases of TIA. The combined endpoint (death, acute MI, stroke, TIA) reached 4 (3.8%) patients. In the study of mid-term results, we were able to contact 96 patients out of 104 operated on (92.3%). The survival rate was 94.8%. 5 (5.2%) people died. There were 2 (2.1%) cases of myocardial infarction, 4 (4.1%) cases of stroke.Conclusions: simultaneous revascularization of the carotid and coronary regions of CABG + CEE is safe and allows adequate elimination of the lesion in both regions.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the most common causes of temporary incapacity, disability and mortality in the adult population of developed countries. Despite a trend in recent years to reduce mortality from cardiovascular disease, the indicator remains high in Russia. One of the main conditions to improve immediate and long-term prognosis of patients after MI, is to conduct a comprehensive cardio-rehabilitation, which is an important component of drug therapy. The article presents the characteristics of drug therapy and its influence on the course of post-MI at 5-year follow-up on the basis of "Register of acute MI". As a result of the frequency, VEN-analysis revealed no significant differences in the main groups of drugs prescribed in different periods after acute MI. At the same time it found that patients with unfavorable course of postinfarction period, significantly more often treated with inadequate doses of b-blockers, who were appointed at hospital discharge and then titrated with the annual and 5-year follow-up. The lower frequency of the appointment of vital medicines (based on VEN-analysis) was detected in patients with unfavorable course of postinfarction period as the baseline, and after a year, and 5 years after MI. Installed features of drug use have an impact on the clinical course of postinfarction period and the development of negative cardiovascular events.

Цель: сравнительный анализ госпитальных и отдаленных результатов открытой симультанной стратегии коронарного шунтирования + каротидной эндартерэктомии (КШ+КЭЭ) и гибридной стратегии чрескожного коронарного вмешательства + каротидной эндартерэктомии (ЧКВ+КЭЭ). Материалы и методы: В данное когортное, сравнительное, ретроспективное, открытое исследование включено 180 пациентов с сочетанным поражением коронарных и внутренних сонных артерий, направлявшихся на симультанное вмешательство или гибридную операцию в период с января 2011г по декабрь 2015г. и имевших сопоставимое поражение коронарного русла. Все исследуемые пациенты были разделены на две группы: группа 1 – КШ+КЭЭ (n=116) и группа 2 − ЧКВ+КЭЭ (n=64). В группе 1 средний период наблюдения составил 50±17 мес, в группе 2 – 53±17 мес. Комбинированная конечная точка включала в себя совокупность таких кардиоваскулярных событий, как: смерть + ИМ + ОНМК/ТИА. При критическом уровне значимости p<0,05 различия считались статистически достоверными. Результаты: в госпитальном периоде значимых различий по частоте осложнений получено не было. В группе 1 выявлено 2 летальных исхода (1,7%), 1 инфаркт миокарда (0,9%), 5 ишемических инсультов (4,3%). В группе 2 среди осложнений получено 3 кровотечения, потребовавших ревизии раны (4,7%) относительно 9 кровотечений группы КШ+КЭЭ, закончившихся ремедиастинотомией (7,8%), р=0,63. В отдаленном периоде наблюдения значимых различий по частоте неблагоприятных исходов получено не было, однако отмечено возрастание частоты комбинированной конечной точки в группе ЧКВ+КЭЭ против КШ+КЭЭ (15/64 (23,4%) vs 17/116 (14,9%), р = 0,2) за счет рестеноза/тромбоза стента, спровоцировавшего инфаркт миокарда и повторную незапланированную реваскуляризацию миокарда. Заключение: исследование не показало значимых различий результатов открытой и гибридной реваскуляризации миокарда и головного мозга. Однако выявлена тенденция в нарастании числа неблагоприятных кардиоваскулярных событий после ЧКВ+КЭЭ в отдаленном периоде относительно КШ+КЭЭ в виду возрастания числа тромбозов/рестенозов стента. Данная особенность подчеркивает преимущества более агрессивных методов реваскуляризации над интервенционными. Objective: A comparative analysis of the hospital and long-term results of the open strategy - simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting + carotid endarterectomy (CABG+CEE) and the hybrid strategy - percutaneous coronary intervention + carotid endarterectomy (PCI+CEE). Materials and methods: This cohort, comparative, retrospective, open-label study included 180 patients with a comparable lesion of the coronary channel and combined lesions of the coronary and internal carotid arteries going for simultaneous intervention or a hybrid operation from January 2011 to December 2015. All studied patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 - CABG+CEE (n=116); Group 2 - PCI+CEE (n=64). In group 1, the average follow-up period was 50±17 months; in group 2 - 53±17 months. Results: in the in-hospital period, no significant differences in the frequency of complications were obtained. 2 deaths (1.7%), 1 myocardial infarction (0.9%) and 5 ischemic strokes (4.3%) were detected in group 1. There were 3 bleedings cases requiring wound revision (4.7%) in the PCI + CEE group versus 9 in the CABG + CEE group requiring remediastinotomy (7.8%), p=0.63. In the long-term follow-up no significant differences in the frequency of adverse outcomes were obtained, however, an increase in the combined endpoint frequency in the PCI+CEE group as compared to CABG+CEE group was noted (15/64 (23,4%) vs 17/116 (14,9%), р=0,2, due to the stent restenosis/thrombosis which provoked myocardial infarction and repeated unplanned myocardial revascularization. Conclusion: the study showed no significant differences when performing open or hybrid myocardium and brain revascularization. However there is a tendency to increase the number of adverse cardiovascular events in the long-term period after PCI+CEE as compared to CABG+CEE mostly due to stent thromboses/restenoses. This feature emphasizes the advantages of more aggressive methods of revascularization over interventional.

Aim. Analysis of long-term results of eversion carotid endarterectomy in patients with atherosclerotic carotid stenosis.Methods. 272 eversion carotid endarterectomy surgeries was performed from June 2008 to December 2014 in the department of cardiac surgery. Long-term results were studied in 198 (73%) patients, with follow-up term ranging from 6 to 48 months. The method of operation serves as a criterion separating Patients were allocated into two groups by the surgery method: in the first group, eversion endarterectomy was performed by Kieny, in the second - by DeBakey.Results. Reconstructed ipsilateral internal carotid artery was passable during the follow-up period in 100% of cases, as confirmed by ultrasonography. In the late period, the mortality in the first group was 2.3% (myocardial infarction and cancer), compared to 1.5% in the second group (myocardial infarction). Acute ischemic stroke occurred in 0.8% of the first group patients and in 1.5% of the second group patients. Restenosis of 50 to 69% were discovered in 3.7% of cases in first group and in 3% in the second group. Restenosis ≥70% were found in 1.5% in both groups of patients.Conclusion. The obtained data confirm that both methods of eversion carotid endarterectomy are safe and reliable in treatment of carotid arteries atherosclerosis and, thus, preventing stroke.

Aim. This study provides an analysis of the results of eversion carotid endarterectomy (CEE) with transposition of the internal carotid artery (ICA) over the hypoglossal nerve, according to A.N. Kazantsev. Materials and Methods. The given prospective open study covering the period from January 2017 to May 2020 involved 311 patients who underwent eversion CEE with transposition of ICA over the hypoglossal nerve, according to A.N. Kazantsev. Transposition was performed in the following way: after standard isolation of the carotid arteries, their compression, arteriosection, and removal of atherosclerotic plaque, ICA was extracted in the area above the hypoglossal nerve and was implanted to the same position. The condition of the patient was controlled on repeated visits to the clinic every six months. Hemodynamics in the reconstruction zone were studied using multispiral computed tomography with angiography of carotid bifurcation with 0.6 mm steps and processing the obtained results in Sim Vascular and Open Foam programs in DICON format. The follow-up period was 18.37.1 months. In case of development of restenosis, reCEE was performed with patch plasty of the reconstruction zone. For histologic examination, the restenosis area was stained by the van Gieson method. Results. In the hospital follow-up period, one case of myocardial infarction was noted that developed due to the stents thrombosis in the anterior descending artery deployed two years before. When studying the hemodynamic properties of carotid bifurcation in the postoperative period using computer modeling, in all cases, no changes or obstacles to blood flow were formed in the ICA in the area above the hypoglossal nerve. In the long-term follow-up period, two cases of lethal outcome were recorded connected with the onset of an oncological disease. In one case, due to recurrence of the pulmonary artery thromboembolism. In two cases, the cause of myocardial infarction was thrombosis/occlusion of venous anastomoses (in one patient to the circumflex artery, in the other to the right coronary artery). In four cases, repeated acute cerebrovascular accidents developed due to restenosis after CEE. In cases of significant restenosis (n=8), reCEE was performed with plasty of the reconstruction zone with a patch. The average restenosis period was 8.23.6 months. No cardiovascular complications and cases of hypoglossal nerve traumatization were identified. Intraoperatively, it was confirmed that restenosis was formed in the bifurcation zone, in front of the perimeter of the primary arteriosection. According to the results of histological examination, the main cause of all restenoses was hyperplasia of the neointima. Conclusion. The eversion CEE with the transposition of the ICA, according to A.N.Kazantsev, creates conditions for additional maneuvers in case of restenosis and implementation of reCEE. The ICAs placement over the hypoglossal nerve during primary CEE allows more confident isolation of carotid artery bifurcation from scar tissues with a zero risk of damage to the hypoglossal nerve. Such a course of the operation makes it possible to apply a clamp on the ICA and perform arteriotomy in any location without the threat of injury to the nerve structures.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Anterior communicating artery (A-comm) aneurysm is one of the most common intracranial aneurysms. Treatments include neurosurgical clipping or endovascular embolization. OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively examine the long-term results of Neuroform stent-assisted coil embolization of incidental A-comms, with a focus on stent-associated stenosis, long-term angiographic aneurysm occlusion outcome, delayed stent-related thromboembolus, subsequent subarachnoid hemorrhage from the treated aneurysm, and procedural complications. METHODS: Between January 7, 2003 and June 16, 2009, 44 Neuroform stents were placed as an adjunct to embolization of A-comms. Patient charts were reviewed retrospectively. Angiographic follow-up of at least 3 months (up to 6.5 years, mean 65 weeks) was available for 33 patients. Aneurysm occlusion success was determined using the Raymond classification for aneurysm remnants. RESULTS: Referencing the last angiogram in the follow-up course, complete occlusion, dog-ear residual, residual neck, and residual aneurysm were found in 24, 2, 3, and 4 patients, respectively. Stenosis (45% and asymptomatic) of the artery where the stent had been placed was found in 1 patient. One patient had delayed transient ischemic attack after dual antiplatelet therapy was stopped prematurely. Retreatment based on the presence of residual aneurysm was performed or recommended in 2 patients. In 2 patients with residual or recurrent aneurysm filling, their age or clinical condition did not warrant retreatment. CONCLUSION: Neuroform stent-assisted embolization provides long-term control of A-comms with a low incidence of aneurysm growth after treatment. The need for retreatment is uncommon, and retreatment is safe if performed. Subsequent bleeding from treated aneurysms was not observed in this study.

Objective – to determine the effectiveness of endovascular revascularization of the carotid pool (carotid stenting) in patients with combined atherosclerotic lesions of the cerebral and coronary arteries, which showed coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Materials and methods. 40 patients with combined atherosclerotic lesions of the cerebral and coronary arteries were included in the study. All patients for 14 days before CABG were stented carotid artery. The number of complications and the treatments results were determined. Survival functions were determined to evaluate long-term treatment outcomes over a 10-year follow-up period. Results. 32.5 % of patients had complications after carotid pool revascularization: angina pectoris – 12.5 %, acute myocardial infarction – 2.5 %, transient ischemic attack – 12.5 %, ischemic stroke – 2.5 %, arterial hypotension – 2.5 %. 98.2 % of patients observed positive results of treatment for neurological status. After revascularization of the coronary pool, 45 % of patients had complications: angina – 27.5 %, cardiac arrhythmia – 27.5 %, acute myocardial infarction – 2.5 %, transient ischemic attack – 7.5 %, ischemic stroke – 7.5 %. 83.5 % of patients received positive results of treatment. The 10-year survival rate after surgery was 19 % [34 %; 7 %]. Decrease in survival function was observed uniformly throughout the observation period: 3-year survival – 83 % [92 %; 67 %], 5-year survival – 56 % [70 %; 39 %].Conclusions. Positive results of treatment in patients with combined atherosclerotic lesions of the cerebral and coronary arteries, which performed stenting of the carotid arteries before CABG, are observed in 98.5 % of patients. Carotid artery stenting before CABG is an effective method of preventing cerebral complications in the early postoperative and distant periods. Long-term results of treatment are accompanied by low rates of 5-year and 10-year survival after revascularization of the carotid and coronary pools.

Background: To evaluate safety, short and long-term graft patency, clinical success rates, and factors associated with patency, limb salvage and mortality after surgical reconstruction in patients younger than 50 years of age who had undergone unilateral iliac artery bypass surgery. Patients and methods: From January 2000 to January 2010, 65 consecutive reconstructive vascular operations were performed in 22 women and 43 men of age < 50 years with unilateral iliac atherosclerotic lesions and claudication or chronic limb ischemia. All patients were followed at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery and every 6 months thereafter. Results: There was in-hospital vascular graft thrombosis in four (6.1 %) patients. No in-hospital deaths occurred. Median follow-up was 49.6 ± 33 months. Primary patency rates at 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year were 92.2 %, 85.6 %, 73.6 %, and 56.5 %, respectively. Seven patients passed away during follow-up of which four patients due to coronary artery disease, two patients due to cerebrovascular disease and one patient due to malignancy. Limb salvage rate after 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year follow-up was 100 %, 100 %, 96.3 %, and 91.2 %, respectively. Cox regression analysis including age, sex, risk factors for vascular disease, indication for treatment, preoperative ABI, lesion length, graft diameter and type of pre-procedural lesion (stenosis/occlusion), showed that only age (beta - 0.281, expected beta 0.755, p = 0.007) and presence of diabetes mellitus during index surgery (beta - 1.292, expected beta 0.275, p = 0.026) were found to be significant predictors of diminishing graft patency during the follow-up. Presence of diabetes mellitus during index surgery (beta - 1.246, expected beta 0.291, p = 0.034) was the only variable predicting mortality. Conclusions: Surgical treatment for unilateral iliac lesions in patients with premature atherosclerosis is a safe procedure with a low operative risk and acceptable long-term results. Diabetes mellitus and age at index surgery are predictive for low graft patency. Presence of diabetes is associated with decreased long-term survival.

Objective: Approximately one out of five patients with Graves' disease (GD) undergoes a thyroidectomy after a mean period of 18 months of medical treatment. This retrospective and non-randomized study from a teaching hospital compares short- and long-term results of total (TT) and subtotal thyroidectomies (ST) for this disease. Methods: From 1987 to 1997, 94 patients were operated for GD. Thirty-three patients underwent a TT (mostly since 1993) and 61 a ST (keeping 4 to 8 grams of thyroid tissue - mean 6 g). All patients had received propylthiouracil and/or neo-mercazole and were in a euthyroid state at the time of surgery; they also took potassium iodide (lugol) for ten days before surgery. Results: There were no deaths. Transient hypocalcemia (< 3 months) occurred in 32 patients (15 TT and 17 ST) and persistent hypocalcemia in 8 having had TT. Two patients developed transient recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy after ST (< 3 months). After a median follow-up period of seven years (1-15) with five patients lost to follow-up, 41 patients having had a ST are in a hypothyroid state (73%), thirteen are euthyroid (23%), and two suffered recurrent hyperthyroidism, requiring completion of thyroidectomy. All 33 patients having had TT - with follow-ups averaging two years (0.5-8) - are receiving thyroxin substitution. Conclusions: There were no instances of persistent recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy in either group, but persistent hypoparathyroidism occurred more frequently after TT. Long after ST, hypothyroidism developed in nearly three of four cases, whereas euthyroidy was maintained in only one-fourth; recurrent hyperthyroidy was rare.
