The first case in Hubei!The consumables implanted in the heart will be degraded into gas and water in the 11 -year -old boy

Wuhan Evening News September 26 (Correspondent Li Yan) The traditional metal blocking device will be permanently left in the body, which may become a new hidden danger of patients with congenital heart disease. Recently, the Central South Hospital of Wuhan University completed the first biological can be enclosed in Hubei Province. An 11 -year -old boy from Gansu from Gansu became the first beneficiary patient. On September 26, he was discharged from the hospital. About one year later, the blocking device in his body was completely absorbed by the human body, and water and carbon dioxide were drained from the body.

Xiao Wang and medical care.

The 11 -year -old boy Xiao Wang's house lived in Zhangye, Gansu. In May this year, his family found that he was panting a little bit. Occasionally, he went to the local hospital for ultrasound examination and was diagnosed with room septum defects. This is a common congenital heart disease. If it is not treated in time, it will lead to expansion of the heart and endanger heart failure. After the age of 3, the room septum defect is difficult to close naturally and require surgery. After many inquiries, Xiao Wang's father finally chose to come to Wuhan University Central South Hospital for intervention surgery.

At the end of August, the father and son came to Wuhan by high -speed rail and lived in the cardiovascular disease hospital of Central South Hospital. After surgery, Xiao Wang's room septal defect exceeded 1 cm. As the age increased weight, the heart load would become more and more and more and more. Large, you must surgery as soon as possible. Combined with Xiao Wang's physical examination and systemic situation, Professor Zhang Gangcheng, director of the Structure Heart Disease Center, decided to repair the lack of congenital houses by ducting minimally involved surgery.

"We use organisms to absorb blocks, and we can start to slowly degrade after a few months, which can not only avoid metal residues in the body, but also reduce the risk of potential cardiac structure abrasion and metal nickel allergy." Before surgery Wang's father introduced the advantages of biological can be cut off, and received the support of his family members.

in surgery.

On September 23, Professor Zhang Gangcheng's team performed a room disadvantage of room septum and closed -type blocking. The minimally invasive surgery of 20 minutes was very successful. The "loophole" of the heart was completely blocked. Essence He has also become the first patient to undergo the surgery of the "Cover Cover" surgery. "'Gray often' thanks to the doctor and nurses of Central South Hospital. Your care and help has been successfully completed the operation ..." Before the recovery of the hospital on September 26, Xiao Wang wrote a thank you letter to the medical staff.

Professor Zhang Gangcheng said that the biochem can be degraded slowly after a few months in the body, and there is no residue to generate water and carbon dioxide discharge from the body, which will not adversely affect the human body. Before completely degraded, the endometrium tissue can automatically make up the house completely and achieve the purpose of cure the lack of "intervention and implantation".
