Multiple heart wounds…
The patient was successfully operated on...
Life saved…
Dnipro cardiac surgeons, using our instruments, continue to perform miracles.
About the operation, direct quote from the surgeon:
“Defender M... was transferred to our clinic from the thoracic center.
The injury occurred the day before yesterday, when he and his partner were hit by mortar fire. They made their way to the positions alone, under FPV. The partner, unfortunately, did not make it. On examination, the patient’s condition was not severe, but an extraction of fragments was definitely needed.
Given the extensive damage to the skin on the left side, the “staleness” of the wounds, and the possible need for CABG (wound in the coronary artery area on CT), it was decided to approach the heart through the sternum. The first fragment came out relatively easily; it was located above the anterior interventricular artery (which gave the team a hard time during preparation), but it did not reach the artery 2 mm, became lodged in the pericardium, and was easily retrieved with a search magnet.
We had to struggle a bit longer with the second fragment. Entering the heart from the front, it caught the edge of a diagonal artery, created a tunnel in the myocardium, and stopped 5 cm from the entrance, directly beneath the branch of the a. intermedia. In other words, we had to approach the fragment at a very “oblique” angle so as not to damage the artery and cause a myocardial infarction.
The task was, of course, eased by the fact that in our arsenal we have a whole assortment of magnets with different attachments and clever solutions, provided free of charge and promptly by the Volunteer Defense Headquarters of Kremenchuk upon our first request.
This time we chose the “Edelweiss” magnet for its strongest magnetism and convenient attachment, which practically begged to be used. The tunnel carved by the fragment was incised, the tissues over the fragment were spread apart, and like fishing, the “Edelweiss” instantly caught the dangerous trophy. The integrity of the diagonal artery was restored; the entrance wound and the access hole were sutured with pads without injuring the arteries lying very close by. From the chest entry hole, the same magnet was used to extract two more fragments.
Well, this collaboration with volunteers once again proves that thanks to caring people we can work much more, faster, and more conveniently, which, with God’s help, will help us save even more lives and return joy and hope to Ukrainian families.”
A deep bow to the doctors, from our entire team! Thank you!
