On September 5th, in the Heart Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, the 14 -year -old girl Lele (pseudonym) was on the Internet and was about to be discharged. A week ago, she suffered from severe congenital hypertrophic obstructive myocardial disease and underwent a new minimally invasive myocardium cutting surgery. In the case of the heart, Professor Wei Xiang, who kept jumping in the heart and did not open his chest, lifted his heart obstruction for Lele, accurately "weight loss" for his heart, and helping Lele's heart function to return to normal.

Doctors are communicating with Lele

At the age of 4, Lele was diagnosed with congenital heart disease and dared not exercise violently since he was a child. Due to the high risk of surgery and limited family conditions, it has always been maintained by drugs. This year's review found that Lele has thickened, and the thickest part has reached 39 mm, close to 4 times that of peers, accompanied by severe obstruction. Because Lele climbed up the floor, he had to stop and breathe several times, and there was a panic in the period. If the doctor judged that if it was not treated, the risk of sudden death was high.

The doctor Fang Jing introduced: This kind of hypertrophic myocardial disease suffered by Lele is a congenital heart disease, hidden in the disease, and many people may have no abnormal heart when they are born, but as they get older, the heart is like a hit. Hormones generally "gain weight" quickly. By adolescence or early adults, the heart is more than twice as thick as the same age. It is easy to have chest pain and chest tightness, and sudden risk of sudden death.

For example, according to traditional surgery, doctors need to perform chest surgery and perform under the heart stopping and in vitro circulation. Such wounds and high surgery are high. Dr. Fang Jing analyzed that Lele is young, and her various heart structures are much smaller than adults. In terms of existing technical conditions, it is difficult to accurately cure resection. The expert team comprehensively evaluates that the latest minimally invasive myocardium cutting technology can be selected. After listening, Lele and Mom made up their minds.

Last week, Lele was sent to the operating room, and Professor Wei Xiang, director of the large heart of the hospital, was the main knife. Through a 4 cm incision of the left front chest wall, in the case of constant heart jumping, after the B -ultrasound, accurate navigation, using the heart muscle rotation system to "lose weight" for Lele heart, far exceeding the traditional chest opening surgery, which can be removed from the traditional chest operation surgery. Myocardial weight. After the operation, Lele quickly broke away from the ventilator and got out of bed the next day.

Professor Wei Xiang's team said: Micro -invasive ventricular germction surgery is suitable for almost all types of hypertrophic obstructive myocardiac diseases, which can more precisely remove hypertrophy myocardial muscles, especially in treating children and adolescent hypertrophic obstructive myocardiac diseases.

It is understood that this set of cardiac rotation system contains myocardial rotation and clinical equipment. It was originally created by Professor Wei Xiang, Tongji Hospital, and has obtained 12 patents including national invention patents and American invention patents. In clinical, the success rate of surgery reached 100%, the world's first.

It is reported that a public welfare fund in Guangdong will also raise 20,000 yuan of love for Lele to help the family survive the difficulty.
