Unilateral is comparable to bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion in acute type A aortic dissection repair.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To compare the short- and long-term outcomes of unilateral and bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion (uni-ACP and bi-ACP) in acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) repair.

Methods

From 2001 to 2017, 307 patients underwent surgical repair of an ATAAD using uni-ACP (n = 140) and bi-ACP (n = 167). Data were collected through the Department of Cardiac Surgery Data Warehouse, medical record review, and the National Death Index database.

Results

The demographics and preoperative comorbidities were similar between the uni-ACP and bi-ACP groups. Both groups had similar rates of procedures for aortic valve/root, ascending aorta, frozen elephant trunk, and other concomitant procedures. Perioperative outcomes were not significantly different between the 2 groups (30-day mortality: uni-ACP 3.4% vs bi-ACP 7.8%, P = .12) except reoperation for bleeding was significantly lower in uni-ACP (5% vs 12%, P = .03). Between the uni-ACP and bi-ACP groups, overall postoperative stroke rate (6% vs 9%, P = .4) and left brain stroke rate (0.7% vs 3.0%, P = .23) were not significantly different. The odds ratio of uni-ACP versus bi-ACP was 0.87 (P = .80) for postoperative stroke and 0.86 (P = .81) for operative mortality. The mid-term survival was better in the uni-ACP group, P = .027 (5-year: 84% vs 76%). The hazard ratio of all-time mortality for uni-ACP versus bi-ACP was 0.74 (95% confidence interval, 0.33-1.65), P = .46.

Conclusions

In ATAAD, both uni-ACP and bi-ACP are equally effective to protect the brain with low postoperative stroke rates and mortality in hemiarch to zone 3 arch replacement. Uni-ACP is recommended for its simplicity and less manipulation of arch branch vessels.

Unilateral versus bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion during surgical repair for patients with acute type A aortic dissection.

Project description:ObjectivesTo compare unilateral versus bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) techniques on cerebral protection during acute type A aortic dissection repair.MethodsUsing an institutional database, we retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent acute type A aortic dissection repair with selective ACP techniques from October 2008 to December 2019. Primary end point was the detection of neurologic dysfunctions. The secondary end point was mortality. For baseline adjustment, the propensity score matching method was used. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the predictor of neurologic events.ResultsAmong 522 patients (aged 62.0 ± 14.9 years; 45.7% women), unilateral and bilateral ACP techniques were used in 357 (64.7%) and 165 (35.3%) patients, respectively. Transient (19.6% vs 21.2%; P = .65) and permanent (7.0% vs 10.3%; P = .70) neurologic dysfunction rates were not significantly different in patients with unilateral versus bilateral ACP, respectively. Observed mortality rate was higher in the patients with bilateral ACP (hazard ratio, 2.05; 95% CI, 1.33-3.14; P = .001). Propensity-score matching yielded 94 pairs of patients. In matched analysis, bilateral ACP did not significantly lower the risks for transient (odds ratio, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.42-1.81; P = .71) and permanent (odds ratio, 1.42; 95% CI, 0.55-3.85; P = .47) neurologic dysfunction or death (hazard ratio, 1.65; 95% CI, 0.87-3.15; P = .13). In the multivariable analysis, the ACP technique was not significantly associated with perioperative neurologic deficit.ConclusionsDespite additional supply, the patients undergoing bilateral ACP during acute type A aortic dissection repair did not have superior outcomes in neurologic and death events compared with the patients undergoing unilateral ACP.

Aortic arch surgery at 32°C: mild hypothermia and unilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion.

Project description:ObjectivesWith development of antegrade cerebral perfusion, the necessity of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (CA) in aortic arch surgery has been called into question. To minimize the adverse effects of hypothermia, surgeons now perform these procedures closer to normothermia. This study examined postoperative outcomes of hemiarch replacement patients using unilateral selective antegrade cerebral perfusion and mild hypothermic CA.MethodsSingle-centre retrospective review of 66 patients undergoing hemiarch replacement with mild hypothermic CA (32°C) and unilateral selective antegrade cerebral perfusion between 2011 and 2018. Antegrade cerebral perfusion was delivered using right axillary artery cannulation. Postoperative data included death, neurological dysfunction, acute kidney injury and renal failure requiring new dialysis. Additional intraoperative metabolic data and blood transfusions were obtained.ResultsEighty-six percent of patients underwent elective surgery. Mean age was 67 ± 3 years. Lowest mean core body temperature was 32 ± 2°C. Average CA was 17 ± 5 min. No intraoperative or 30-day mortality occurred. Survival was 97% at 1 year, 91% at 3 years and 88% at 5 years. Permanent and temporary neurological dysfunction occurred in 1 (2%) and 2 (3%) patients, respectively. Only 3 (5%) patients suffered postoperative stage 3 acute kidney injury requiring new dialysis. Intraoperative transfusions occurred in 44% of patients and no major metabolic derangements were observed.ConclusionsIn patients undergoing hemiarch surgery, mild hypothermia (32°C) with unilateral selective antegrade cerebral perfusion via right axillary cannulation is associated with low mortality and morbidity, offering adequate neurological and renal protection. These findings require validation in larger, prospective clinical trials.

Novel brain computed tomography perfusion for cerebral malperfusion secondary to acute type A aortic dissection.

Project description:ObjectivesThe management of acute type A aortic dissection with malperfusion syndrome remains challenging. To evaluate preoperative condition, symptoms might be subjective and objective evaluation of cerebral artery has not yet been established. For quantitative evaluation, this study focused on brain computed tomography perfusion (CTP), which has been recommended by several guidelines of acute ischaemic stroke.MethodsIn the last 2 years, 147 patients hospitalized due to acute type A aortic dissection were retrospectively reviewed. Among the 23 (16%) patients with cerebral malperfusion, 14 who underwent brain CTP (6 preoperative and 8 postoperative) were enrolled. CTP parameters, including regional blood flow and time to maximum, were automatically computed using RApid processing of Perfusion and Diffusion software. The median duration from the onset to hospital arrival was 129 (31-659) min.ResultsAmong the 6 patients who underwent preoperative CTP, 4 with salvageable ischaemic lesion (penumbra: 8-735 ml) without massive irreversible ischaemic lesion (ischaemic core: 0-31 ml) achieved acceptable neurological outcomes after emergency aortic replacement regardless of preoperative neurological severity. In contrast, 2 patients with an ischaemic core of >50 ml (73, 51 ml) fell into a vegetative state or neurological death due to intracranial haemorrhage. CTP parameters guided postoperative blood pressure augmentation without additional supra-aortic vessel intervention in the 8 patients who underwent postoperative CTP, among whom 6 achieved normal neurological function regardless of common carotid true lumen stenosis severity.ConclusionsCTP was able to detect irreversible ischaemic core, guide critical decisions in preoperative patients and aid in determining the blood pressure augmentation for postoperative management focusing on residual brain ischaemia.

A new cannula for antegrade selective cerebral perfusion.

Project description:ObjectiveOur aim was to perform antegrade selective cerebral perfusion with a different surgical technique using a new type of cannula.MethodsThis cannula has been designed to be introduced in the supra-aortic vessels directly using a standard guidewire technique (Seldinger technique). The cannula can also be inserted from the ostia of a vessel if preferred. Furthermore, this device can be introduced before the institution of hypothermic circulatory arrest and opening the aortic arch.ResultsWe have performed operations on 5 patients so far using this cannula. No stroke or spinal cord injuries were detected. At the moment, both intraoperatively and at computed tomography scan follow-up, no significant stenosis of the cannulation sites were noted. Follow-up at 2 years found that patients are alive and free from new major neurological events.ConclusionsTransarterial introduction using the Seldinger technique of our cannula (AV Flow; MedEurope Srl, Bologna, Italy) represents an alternative to the current well-established techniques. The major advantages we describe are complete cerebral protection throughout the hypothermic circulatory arrest and easier arch vessels reimplantation or hemiarch operations.

Axillary versus innominate artery cannulation for antegrade cerebral perfusion in aortic surgery: design of the Aortic Surgery Cerebral Protection Evaluation (ACE) CardioLink-3 randomised trial.

Project description:IntroductionNeurological injury remains the major cause of morbidity and mortality following open aortic arch repair. Systemic hypothermia along with antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) is the accepted cerebral protection approach, with axillary artery cannulation being the most common technique used to establish ACP. More recently, innominate artery cannulation has been shown to be a safe and efficacious method for establishing ACP. Inasmuch as there is a lack of high-quality data comparing axillary and innominate artery ACP, we have designed a randomised, multi-centre clinical trial to compare both cerebral perfusion strategies with regards to brain morphological injury using diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI).Methods and analysis110 patients undergoing elective aortic surgery with repair of the proximal arch requiring an open distal anastamosis will be randomised to either the innominate artery or the axillary artery cannulation strategy for establishing unilateral ACP during systemic circulatory arrest with moderate levels of hypothermia. The primary safety endpoint of this trial is the proportion of patients with new radiologically significant ischaemic lesions found on postoperative DW-MRI compared with preoperative DW-MRI. The primary efficacy endpoint of this trial is the difference in total operative time between the innominate artery and the axillary artery cannulation group.Ethics and disseminationThe study protocol and consent forms have been approved by the participating local research ethics boards. Publication of the study results is anticipated in 2018 or 2019. If this study shows that the innominate artery cannulation technique is non-inferior to the axillary artery cannulation technique with regards to brain morphological injury, it will establish the innominate artery cannulation technique as a safe and potentially more efficient method of antegrade cerebral perfusion in aortic surgery.Trial registration numberNCT02554032.

A simple method to establish antegrade cerebral perfusion during hemiarch reconstruction.

Project description:ObjectiveWe describe a novel and safe technique using a 12F-14F pediatric arterial cannula to establish unilateral, selective, antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) during open hemiarch reconstruction.MethodsBetween January 2015 and September 2018, 42 patients underwent elective aortic aneurysm repair requiring an open distal anastomosis and at least a hemiarch replacement via hypothermic circulatory arrest by 2 surgeons. All distal reconstructions were performed at moderate hypothermia (22°C-26°C) with direct cannulation of the innominate artery (IA) using a pediatric arterial cannula to allow ACP at 10-15 mL/kg/min. Data were collected by retrospective chart review.ResultsThirty-one of the 42 patients (74%) were male. The mean patient age was 65 ± 13 years, and the mean body surface area was 2.1 ± 0.3 m2. Proximal repairs included a modified Bentall with a valve-graft composite (n = 17), valve-sparing root replacement (n = 2), and aortic valve replacement (n = 15). Perioperative mortality was 2% (n = 1), and the incidence of stroke was 0%. The mean lowest core body temperature reached during circulatory arrest was 23.8 ± 2.7°C with a mean ACP time of 21.8 ± 3.6 minutes. The mean aortic cross-clamp and cardiopulmonary bypass times were 160.6 ± 55.5 minutes and 204.7 ± 57.5 minutes, respectively. There were no cases of IA injury.ConclusionsDirect IA cannulation with a pediatric arterial cannula is a safe and efficient method to allow ACP in aortic surgery requiring hypothermic circulatory arrest and may circumvent the potential complications of axillary cannulation.

Complex aortic arch repair in a patient with Takayasu's disease presenting with acute aortic dissection type Stanford A and complete collateral perfusion of the brain.

Project description:We describe a rare case of a 46-year old woman suffering from Takayasu's disease. She had undergone aorto-biaxillary bypass and aorto-cerebral bypass surgery in 1985 for occlusive arterial disease and developed a large ascending pseudoaneurysm of the aorto-biaxillary bypass. The aorto-cerebral bypass and right axillary bypass were occluded. Native supra-aortic arteries were found to be proximally occluded and arterial blood supply to the brain was maintained by a dense arterial collateral network. The patient did not show neurological deficits and was able to work using both arms without restrictions. She refused early surgery but suffered from acute aortic dissection type Stanford A shortly after. Supracommissural ascending aortic and aortic arch repair under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest with no additional bypass to the head vessels was performed. This case demonstrates the significance of aortic complications in Takayasu's disease and the effectiveness of collateral brain perfusion in selected patients.

Fate of descending aorta after acute type A aortic dissection repair.

Project description:BackgroundReports on the residual descending aortic dissection (AD) after acute type A AD (TAAD) repair has been limited. Therefore, we evaluated the fate of descending aorta in patients who underwent acute TAAD repair.MethodsWe reviewed 299 patients (mean: 60.4 years, 51.5% male) patients who received acute TAAD repair between 2009 and 2018, except genetic aortopathy and concomitant surgeries for the descending aorta. Subjects are categorized into classic TAAD (Classic, n=226), retrograde extension of TAAD from the intimal tear in the descending aorta (Retro, n=31), and intramural hematoma (IMH, n=42) types of AD. Interested outcome was expansion rate of descending aorta. Secondary outcome was descending aorta events including surgical repair, interventions, and aortic rupture. To reduce selection bias, baseline variables were adjusted. Multivariable risk analyses were performed to find risk factors of the study outcomes.ResultsIn crude analysis, descending aorta in Retro [beta, 2.260; standard error (SE), 0.559] and Classic (beta, 1.542; SE, 0.233) groups expanded faster than IMH (beta, 0.443; SE, 0.491) group. Unadjusted risk of aortic event was significantly higher in the Retro group compared with the IMH [hazard ratio (HR) =4.80; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.56-14.7] and Classic (HR =2.36; 95% CI: 1.24-4.49) groups. Baseline adjustment did not alter these findings. In multivariable analyses, the presence of intimal tear in the upper thoracic descending aorta (above 7th thoracic vertebra) was significantly associated with the aortic expansion (beta, 2.06; SE, 0.61) and events (HR =8.74; 95% CI: 4.34-17.6).ConclusionsThe descending aorta growth was faster in Retro and Classic than IMH and related with the tear location. Careful assessment on the descending is warranted.
