Endoscopic Procedures IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy

205
Sigmoidoscopy and laparoscopy are distinct medical procedures that enable physicians to internally inspect different parts of the GI tract. Although they serve different purposes, each is essential for diagnosing and, in some cases, treating various medical conditions.
Sigmoidoscopy
Sigmoidoscopy is a diagnostic procedure that uses a flexible sigmoidoscope equipped with a light source and camera to examine the rectum and sigmoid colon. The procedure involves inserting the tube through the anus...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Aortic Valve Replacement
  • Surgical Outcomes

Background:

  • The Ross procedure, a type of aortic valve replacement, was first performed at Santa Marta Hospital in 1999.
  • After two decades, an evaluation of mid and long-term results is warranted to assess the procedure's efficacy and future role.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the mid and long-term outcomes of the Ross procedure.
  • To assess complications, reoperation rates, and mortality associated with the Ross procedure.
  • To estimate the future applicability of the Ross procedure.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective analysis of 23 Ross procedures performed between March 1999 and June 2016.
  • Data collected included patient demographics, surgical results, complications, reoperation status, and mortality.
  • Mean follow-up duration was 15 years.

Main Results:

  • The primary indications for the Ross procedure were aortic stenosis (36.4%), aortic regurgitation (22.7%), and mixed aortic stenosis/regurgitation (27.3%).
  • Overall mortality was 9%, with no early mortality.
  • 83% of patients were free from reoperation, and 80% of survivors were in NYHA class I functional status.

Conclusions:

  • The Ross procedure has specific indications, and its benefits are significant in selected patient groups.
  • The study demonstrates positive and encouraging outcomes, with a high rate of freedom from reoperation at mid and long-term follow-up.
  • The findings support the continued use of the Ross procedure in appropriate candidates.
