A few things to know about cardiac surgery

A few points about heart transplantation: 1, the operation itself is not difficult, and it is performed in a fixed order; 2, the removal of the autologous heart needs to pay attention to the preservation of the left atrial wall, choosing a joint left and right atrial incision route to cut open the right atrium and the atrial septum, removing the atrial septum along the atrial sulcus, and after cutting open the right side, cutting open the atrial sulcus along the atrioventricular sulcus, preserving the left atrial wall more appropriately; 3, the location of the donor heart is the focus: the left auricle corresponds, the superior and inferior vena cava The aorta and pulmonary artery are well aligned to prevent distortion; 4. Some tips: when suturing the beginning of the left atrial wall, place the donor heart on the left side of the autologous left atrial wall, so that no additional assistant is needed to place the heart and suturing is easy; trim the pulmonary artery very short to avoid anastomotic folding; before vascular anastomosis, suspend the vessel with a traction line to make suturing easier.
