Zusammenfassung

Katheterbasierte Techniken zur Behandlung struktureller Herzerkrankungen wie die kathetergestützte Aortenklappenimplantation (TAVI) oder die MitraClip-Prozedur nehmen seit Jahren zu. Vor allem im Bereich der TAVI-Prozedur ist die Herzchirurgie nach wie vor stark im Sinne des Heart-Team-Gedankens eingebunden. Um hier ein guter Partner zu sein, ist es notwendig, über eine breite Basis an Grundkenntnissen und -fertigkeiten zu verfügen. Diese reicht von der Kenntnis der aktuellen Literatur bis hin zu Grundfertigkeiten im Umgang mit Kathetern und Drähten. Die Aneignung dieser Grundfertigkeiten ist aktuell kein fester Bestandteil der kardiochirurgischen Ausbildung und daher jedem im Heart-Team tätigen Herzchirurgen selbst überlassen. Der vorliegende Beitrag bietet einen Überblick für den interessierten herzchirurgischen Kollegen darüber, wo und wie er sich in katheterbasierten Techniken fortbilden kann. Außerdem soll die Diskussion angeregt werden, ob es sinnvoll wäre, einen Teil des herzchirurgischen Curriculums den katheterbasierten Techniken zu widmen bzw. eine Spezialbezeichnung „interventioneller Herzchirurg“ zu etablieren.

Abstract

Catheter-based techniques for the treatment of structural heart diseases, such as transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or the MitraClip procedure have been increasing in numbers for years. Especially during TAVI procedures, cardiac surgeons are still strongly involved in the sense of the concept of a heart team. In order to be a good partner in the team, it is essential to have a broad basic knowledge and set of skills. This includes not only a good overview of the current literature but also basic skills in handling catheters and wires. Acquisition of these skills is not part of the current cardiac surgical training and is therefore the personal responsibility of each individual surgeon involved in a heart team. This article provides an overview for cardiac surgeons interested in transcatheter techniques as to how and where to acquire these skills. Additionally, it aims to provoke discussion on whether the training of catheter-based techniques should be part of the training curriculum in cardiac surgery or if it is necessary to establish a special discipline of “interventional cardiac surgeon”.
