To retrospectively evaluate the clinical outcomes of pre-operative endovascular coil embolisation (ECE) for chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA). We evaluated surgical patients with CPA between November 2016 and April 2020. Pre-operative ECE for CPA with severe adhesions was selectively performed to reduce intra-operative blood loss. ECE procedures, operative procedures, intra-operative blood loss and complications were evaluated. Twenty-eight patients (21 males and 7 females; median age: 55 years) were included in the study. Of the 28 patients, 8 (28.6%) underwent pre-operative ECE. Technical success rate in pre-operative ECE was 100%. The median time required for ECE procedures was 123 min. The median number of vessels embolised per procedure was 2.5. The median period between embolisation and surgery was 5 days. Major complications were observed in three patients (10.7%). There were no significant differences between patients with and without pre-operative ECE in operative time (284 vs. 365 min, respectively, = 0.7602) and intra-operative blood loss (294 vs. 228 mL, respectively, = 0.8987). Pre-operative ECE for CPA appears to be feasible and safe; however, its role in reducing intra-operative blood loss needs further investigation.
回顾性评估术前血管内弹簧圈栓塞术(ECE)治疗慢性肺曲霉病(CPA)的临床疗效。我们评估了2016年11月至2020年4月期间接受手术治疗的CPA患者。对于粘连严重的CPA患者,选择性地进行术前ECE以减少术中失血。评估了ECE手术、手术过程、术中失血和并发症。28例患者(21例男性和7例女性;中位年龄:55岁)纳入研究。28例患者中,8例(28.6%)接受了术前ECE。术前ECE的技术成功率为100%。ECE手术所需的中位时间为123分钟。每次手术栓塞血管的中位数量为2.5条。栓塞与手术之间的中位间隔时间为5天。3例患者(10.7%)出现了主要并发症。术前接受ECE和未接受ECE的患者在手术时间(分别为284分钟和365分钟,P = 0.7602)和术中失血(分别为294毫升和228毫升,P = 0.8987)方面无显著差异。术前ECE治疗CPA似乎是可行且安全的;然而,其在减少术中失血方面的作用需要进一步研究。
