Taiwan ballroom dancing queen Serena Liu Chen has died at the age of 44 on Sunday night (March 22)
- 4 years ago
The death of the national standard queen Liu Zhen is unsatisfactory. She recently underwent traditional surgery for severe aortic stenosis, but her heart recovery was poor after surgery, and cerebral embolism and bleeding occurred in succession. Medical professionals regret to say that this operation is already a routine operation, but the medical technology has not progressed to zero risk. "Even if the chance of serious complications is only 1%, which patient falls on, this patient is all 100% ".
Huang Jianlong, the attending physician of the Cardiology Medical Center of Zhenxing Hospital, said that the four heart valves in the human body include aortic valve, mitral valve, pulmonary valve and tricuspid valve, which can help control the direction of blood flow throughout the body. The causes of valve stenosis can be roughly divided into two types: older and younger types. Elderly patients may have chronic inflammation due to infection and damage the valve as a result of younger age. .
Younger patients may have congenital valvular abnormalities. Most people have three aortic valves. A few people may have congenital bivalvular deformity and the valve is not easy to open. Ms. Liu Zhen is likely to be a patient with this type of congenital bilobular valve, which will cause the disease to worsen with age.
Patients who are known to have congenital heart disease should return to the hospital every six months to one year for echocardiography. Elderly people who have mild to moderate aortic stenosis should also follow up every six months to one year. Severe Patients must receive direct surgical treatment.
Huang Jianlong said that the most effective treatment for aortic valve stenosis is surgical replacement of the aortic valve, which is divided into traditional surgery and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI), both of which have a success rate of more than 95%, causing serious complications The risk of stroke (such as stroke, myocardial infarction, and acute heart failure) is between 1% and 3%. Clinical recommendations will be made based on the patient's age and physical condition.
Traditional surgery requires sawing the sternum to replace the aortic valve. The surgical wound is large and the postoperative recovery time is long. TAVI uses a catheter to place a valve stent into the aortic valve site, expanding the original diseased valve outward, allowing the implanted valve to replace the original valve and return to normal operation. The invasiveness is low and the postoperative recovery time is fast. The only thing that cannot be guaranteed is how long the valve will be replaced by this operation. "
Huang Jianlong said that the first TAVI operation in the world was performed by France in 2010 and was first introduced in China since 2012. Therefore, the follow-up health status of patients undergoing this minimally invasive surgery has only been observed for less than a decade. https://a-s-ii-a.tumblr.com/post/613771931261517824
