ていた。[Prior Art] Atrial septal defect is a congenital defect in the atrial septum, which is the dividing wall between the right atrium and the left atrium. It is a disease that causes a decline in heart function, pulmonary hypertension, and lung infections. It is the most common congenital heart disease, and if the defect is not closed surgically during elementary or junior high school age, it will cause irreversible damage to the heart and lung system, which is why cardiac surgery is so important. It has become a major target. Conventionally, in order to surgically close this defect hole, the method was to make an incision in the thorax and the heart, and to stitch the defect hole under the use of an artificial heart-lung machine or to sew a special patch.

In contrast to the balloon for closing the atrial septal defect hole 23 in the first embodiment, the left atrium 20, the atrial septum 19, and the right atrium 18 each formed independent chambers via a septum. Therefore, the balloon for closing the atrial septal defect hole 23 in this example was used to close the left atrium 20.
The balloon, the atrial septum 19, and the right atrium 18 are integrally formed with internal communication, and each balloon has a structure that maintains different expansion rates against pressure. That is, by changing the material or thickness of each balloon, the elongation rate in response to pressure can be changed.For example, the 20th part of the left atrium is 100mmH2O , the 19th part of the atrial septum is 200mmH2O , and the 18th part of the right atrium is 300mmH2O.
The predetermined shapes and dimensions can be maintained by the pressure of H 2 O.

是正される。 When inserting into the atrial septal defect hole 23, each balloon portion and the communicating tube 4 integrated therewith are first inserted through the superficial jugular vein incision 15 using substantially the same method as in the first embodiment. After confirming that the balloon A1 has reached the left atrium 20, a liquid or gaseous inflation material is injected through the thin tube 5 inserted into the communication tube 4. Since the insides of balloon 1, balloon B2, and balloon 3 are communicated with each other, each balloon is filled with the injected inflation material. Furthermore, continue to inject the expansion material and increase the pressure to 100mmH 2 O.
13, the balloon 1 in the left atrium 20 first inflates and maintains a predetermined shape. Next, the connecting tube 4 is pulled to bring the balloon 1 into close contact with the atrial septum 19, and the injection of the inflation material is continued to increase the pressure to 200 mmH2O . Accordingly, the balloon 2 is inflated to a predetermined size as shown in FIG. 14, and the atrial septal defect hole 23 is closed. Furthermore, when the pressure of the injected expansion material is increased to 300 mmH 2 O while being careful not to loosen the tension on the connecting tube 4, the balloon 3 inflates within the right atrium 18 as shown in FIG. 15 and reaches a predetermined shape. Then, as in the first embodiment, the ends of the thin tube 5 and the communicating tube 4 are closed, and after the ends are sufficiently fixed to the incised vein with surgical thread, the skin incision is sutured. As a result, the atrial septal defect hole 23 is connected to the balloon 1 on the left atrium 20 side, the balloon 2 in the atrial septal defect hole 23, and the right atrium 18.
It is closed by being sandwiched in an H shape by the side balloons 3, and the backflow of blood from the left atrium 20 to the right atrium 18 is corrected.

れた効果を奏するものである。[Effects of the Invention] As explained in the above embodiments, the present invention has the following effects:
When treating atrial septal defect, which is the most commonly seen congenital heart disease, the conventional practice is to make an incision in the chest area and the heart, and use a heart-lung machine to close the defect hole or use a special patch. In contrast to the method of suturing up the atrial septal defect, we insert a balloon-like or thin membrane-like material that can be expanded and contracted by injecting and expelling an inflatable material through a small incision in the jugular vein. In addition to accurately inserting and closing the hole, the defect hole closing structure can also be easily replaced as the patient grows. Therefore, in addition to simplifying the sophisticated techniques and equipment required to perform conventional surgeries, it also greatly reduces the surgical invasion of the living body and the anxiety caused to the patient and his or her family. This has an excellent effect that can sufficiently eliminate problems such as psychological effects caused by subsequent scars.
