We describe a novel surgical technique with a median sternotomy closure in high-risk open heart patients. In contrast to conventional sternal closure, in which sternal wires are passed through the intercostal space, the novel technique in sternal closure passes sternal wires transcostally or through costo-chondral joints.
我们描述了一种用于高危开胸心脏手术患者的正中胸骨切开术闭合的新手术技术。与传统的胸骨闭合技术不同,传统技术是通过肋间空间穿过胸骨钢丝,而新的胸骨闭合技术是通过胸骨钢丝经肋软骨关节或穿过肋软骨关节。
