Delorme-Mignon Pericardial Puncture

Delorme Mignon pericardial puncture is a procedure in which a puncture (puncture) of the pericardium, the serous membrane covering the heart, is performed. This procedure is used to treat various heart conditions such as pericarditis (inflammation of the pericardium), cardiac tamponade (fluid accumulation in the pericardium), and others.

The first to propose this procedure was the French surgeon Eugene Delorme in 1881. He described this technique in his article published in the journal La Revue médicale. Delorme suggested using a special needle that has a blunt end and a sharp point inside the needle to avoid damaging the heart.

In 1904, the French surgeon Andre Mignon improved Delorme's procedure and proposed using a thinner needle and performing the puncture under ultrasound guidance. He also suggested using local anesthesia and monitoring the patient during the procedure.

Delorme Mignon pericardial puncture is one of the most common procedures in cardiology and is used to treat many heart diseases. It allows you to remove fluid from the pericardium, reduce pressure on the heart and improve its function. However, like any other medical procedure, it has its own risks and complications, so before carrying out the procedure, it is necessary to carefully assess the patient's condition and choose the most appropriate treatment method.

Delorme-Mignon pericardial puncture is a surgical method for the treatment of pericardial diseases, aimed at reducing pressure inside the pericardium and improving blood circulation. This technique was developed by French surgeons in the second half of the 19th century and is still used in modern medicine.

According to medical terminology, the pericardium is the membrane that surrounds the heart. It is made up of connective tissue and has a number of important functions, including protecting the heart from
