We applied a heart positioner during operations to remove large mediastinal tumors. Fixing and lifting the tumor with this device allowed a good view behind the tumor. Separating the tumor from surrounding structures was easy and safe, with no risk of insult. The device caused no damage to the tumor capsule. This could represent a novel method to remove large mediastinal tumors safely and effectively.
我们在手术中应用心脏定位器来切除大型纵隔肿瘤。使用该设备固定和提起肿瘤，可以很好地观察肿瘤后面的情况。肿瘤与周围结构的分离既容易又安全，不会造成损伤。该设备对肿瘤包膜无任何损伤。这可能代表一种安全有效地切除大型纵隔肿瘤的新方法。
