722 patients who returned to the intensive care unit( ICU) after completing the cardiac surgery and closing the median sternotomy from Jan 2010 to Feb 2021 at our hospital were divided into 3 groups according to the different sternal closures. Sternum was fixed with 6 wires alone in group A (n=333), with 2 absorbable plates and 6 wires in group B( n=259) or with 3 titanium plates with 20 screws and 4 wires in group C (n=130). Background characteristics were not different between the 3 groups. Total number of 3 complications (postsurgical bleeding, mediastinitis and delayed cardiac tamponade) was significantly less in group B and C than group A. Among them postsurgical bleeding needed hemostasis surgery was significantly less in group C than in group A. Surgical nor hospital mortality were not significantly different in 3 groups. Postsurgical complications were significantly less when the sternum closure was fixed with plates( absorbable, not absorbable). |
