Objetivo

Cuantificar el fracaso primario del injerto (FPI) y su influencia en la mortalidad inmediata en el trasplante unipulmonar (TUP)

Pacientes Y Método

Analizamos 35 TUP, realizados con técnica similar. Se considera FPI un cociente PaO2/FiO2 inferior a 200mmHg durante las primeras 72 h o ventilación asistida superior a 5 días atribuible a disfunción pulmonar primaria. Definimos mortalidad perioperatoria la acontecida en los primeros 30 días y mortalidad temprana en los primeros 90 días

Resultados

Se estudió a 25 varones y 10 mujeres; 22 fibrosis pulmonares y 13 enfisemas, con edad media de 53,26 ± 10,77 años. Realizamos 20 TUP derechos y 15 izquierdos. Veintinueve donantes fueron varones y seis mujeres, con edad media de 29,31 ± 12,33 años. Veintiséis fallecieron por traumatismo craneoencefálico, ocho por accidente cerebrovascular, y uno por tumor cerebral. El tiempo medio de intubación fue de 1,69 ± 1,35 días. La PaO2 media fue de 470,71 ± 70,82mmHg. El tiempo medio de isquemia fue de 201,77 ± 62,64 min. Cuatro pacientes (11,42%) desarrollaron FPI, y tres fallecieron en el perioperatorio. Otros 2 pacientes fallecieron de forma temprana. La supervivencia fue del 91,4% al mes y del 85,5% a los 3 meses. La causa de muerte del donante fue la única variable que condicionó la aparición de FPI

Conclusión

Objetivamos una baja incidencia de FPI y mortalidad perioperatoria y temprana, con supervivencias al mes y a los 3 meses similares a las admitidas internacionalmente

Objective

To quantify primary graft failure (PGF) and its impact on perioperative and early mortality in singlelung transplant (SLT)

Method

We analyzed 35 SLT procedures performed using similar techniques. PGF was defined as a PaO2/FiO2 coefficient lower than 200mmHg during the first 72 hours or ventilation assistance lasting longer than 5 days attributable to primary lung dysfunction. We defined perioperative mortality as occurring within 30 days of surgery and early mortality within 90 days

Results

Twenty-five men and 10 women received lungs, 22 for pulmonary fibrosis and 13 for emphysema; the mean age was 53.26 ± 10.77 years. Twenty right SLTs were performed and 15 left SLTs. Twenty-nine donors were men and 6 were women, with a mean age of 29.31 ± 12.33 years. Twenty-six died from cranial trauma, 8 from stroke and 1 from a brain tumor. The mean time of intubation was 1.69 ± 1.35 days. The mean PaO2 was 470.71 ± 70.82mmHg. The mean time of ischemia was 201.77 ± 62.64 minutes. Four patients (11.42%) developed PGF and 3 died during the perioperative period. Two additional patients died within the early postoperative period. Survival was 91.4% at one month and 85.5% at three months. The cause of donor death was the only variable that influenced the development of PGF

Conclusion

We observed a low incidence of PGF and of perioperative and early mortality, with one –and three– month survival rates similar to those reported internationally
