Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate central aortic cannulation and arch branch vessel (ABV) cannulation in acute type A aortic dissection repair.MethodsFrom 2015 to April 2020, 298 patients underwent open repair of an acute type A aortic dissection. Patients undergoing femoral cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass (n = 34) were excluded. Patients were then divided based on initial cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass into central aortic cannulation (n = 72) and ABV cannulation (n = 192) groups. ABV sites included cannulation of the axillary, innominate, right/left common carotid, and intrathoracic right subclavian arteries.ResultsThe aortic cannulation group was younger (59 vs 62 years; P = .02), more likely to be men (76% vs 60%; P = .02), and had more peripheral vascular disease (60% vs 37%; P = .0009). ABV dissection was similar between central and ABV cannulation groups (53% vs 60%; P = .51). The aortic cannulation group underwent less aggressive arch replacement, had shorter cardiopulmonary bypass times (200 vs 222 minutes; P = .01), less utilization of antegrade cerebral perfusion (93% vs 98%; P = .04), and received less blood transfusion (0 vs 1 U; P = .001). Postoperative outcomes were similar between aortic and ABV cannulation groups, including stroke (5.6% vs 5.2%; P = 1.0) and operative mortality (4.2% vs 6.3%; P = .77). In addition, postoperative strokes were similar in location (right-brain, left-brain, or bilateral), etiology (embolic vs hemorrhagic), and presence of permanent deficits. Aortic cannulation was not a risk factor for postoperative stroke (odds ratio, 0.94; P = .91) or operative mortality (odds ratio, 0.70; P = .64). Short-term survival was similar between central and ABV cannulation groups.ConclusionsBoth aortic and ABV cannulation were safe and effective cannulation strategies in acute type A aortic dissection repair.

Project description:ObjectiveTotal aortic arch replacement (TAR) necessitates hypothermic circulatory arrest (CA). The frozen elephant trunk technique (FET) additionally requires commercial hybrid grafts. Herein we describe a novel modified FET technique without CA using standard grafts thanks to left axillary artery (LAxA) cannulation in patients with acute type A aortic dissection.MethodsLAxA anastomosis is made first using a homemade debranching graft, and cardiopulmonary bypass is initiated, followed by anastomoses of left common carotid and innominate arteries. The rest of the operation is performed with complete cerebral perfusion. Following replacement of ascending aorta/root, cardiac reperfusion is started using a root cannula which continues throughout the procedure. Distal arch anastomosis is performed clamp-on, allowing lower body perfusion via left subclavian artery. Lower body perfusion is interrupted for 5 to 8 minutes to deploy an endograft to complete a modified FET. Following cannulation of distal arch graft, perfusion of distal aorta is restarted, and all three grafts are incorporated to construct a neo-ascending aorta and arch.ResultsBetween December 2018 and May 2022, 38 patients underwent TAR without operative mortality. Hospital mortality was %15.7, and spinal cord ischemia and stroke were not encountered in surviving patients. The mean lower body CA time was 7.2 ± 2.8 minutes.ConclusionsTAR using standard endografts without CA is possible with LAxA cannulation. To perform a FET, only a short interruption of lower body circulation is sufficient to deploy an endograft, also improving hemostasis of distal anastomosis. Further studies are required with a higher number of patients to evaluate the efficiency of this novel technique.

Project description:ObjectivesOur goal was to investigate whether laboratory signatures on admission could be used to identify risk stratification and different tolerance to hypothermic circulatory arrest in acute type A aortic dissection surgery.MethodsPatients from 10 Chinese hospitals participating in the Additive Anti-inflammatory Action for Aortopathy & Arteriopathy (5A) study were randomly divided into derivation and validation cohorts at a ratio of 7:3 to develop and validate a simple risk score model using preoperative variables associated with in-hospital mortality using multivariable logistic regression. The performance of the model was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. Subgroup analyses were performed to investigate whether the laboratory signature-based risk stratification could differentiate the tolerance to hypothermic circulatory arrest.ResultsThere were 1443 patients and 954 patients in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. Multivariable analysis showed the associations of older age, larger body mass index, lower platelet-neutrophile ratio, higher lymphocyte-monocyte ratio, higher D-dimer, lower fibrinogen and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate with in-hospital death, incorporated to develop a simple risk model (5A laboratory risk score), with an area under the receiver operating characteristic of 0.736 (95% confidence interval 0.700-0.771) and 0.715 (95% CI 0.681-0.750) in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. Patients at low risk were more tolerant to hypothermic circulatory arrest than those at middle to high risk in terms of in-hospital mortality [odds ratio 1.814 (0.222-14.846); odds ratio 1.824 (1.137-2.926) (P = 0.996)].ConclusionsThe 5A laboratory-based risk score model reflecting inflammatory, immune, coagulation and metabolic pathways provided adequate discrimination performances in in-hospital mortality prediction, which contributed to differentiating the tolerance to hypothermic circulatory arrest in acute type A aortic dissection surgery.Clinical Trials. gov number NCT04918108.

Project description:PurposeIn this study, we compared the early results between the extensive arch repair with a novel two-branched stent graft (TSG) and the traditional technique.MethodsBetween 2013 July and 2015 March, 63 acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) patients from four cardiac centers with indications for extensive arch repair were included in this study. Finally, 28 patients were involved in the traditional procedure (TP) group (23 males with the age of 49.75 ± 9.26 years) and 35 patients were involved in the TSG group (29 males with the age of 53.82 ± 8.17 years).ResultsThe operation was successful in all patients. The selective cerebral perfusion time, total operation time, and chest drainage within 24 hours after the operation in the TSG group were significantly less than those in the TP group (P ≤0.05). The mean follow-up time was 11.17 ± 1.74 months in the TP group and 11.94 ± 4.29 months in the TSG group. No statistical differences were found in aortic diameter, false lumen diameter, and true lumen diameter at the diaphragmatic level during the follow-up.ConclusionOur technique with a novel TSG simplified the extensive arch repair procedure and was an effective way for the treatment of ATAAD.

Project description:ObjectiveThe study objective was to determine if hemiarch replacement is an adequate arch management strategy for patients with acute type A aortic dissection and arch branch vessel dissection but no cerebral malperfusion.MethodsFrom January 2008 to August 2019, 479 patients underwent open acute type A aortic dissection repair. After excluding those with aggressive arch replacement (n = 168), cerebral malperfusion syndrome (n = 34), and indeterminable arch branch vessel dissection (n = 1), 276 patients with an acute type A aortic dissection without cerebral malperfusion syndrome who underwent hemiarch replacement comprised this study. Patients were then divided into those with arch branch vessel dissection (n = 133) and those with no arch branch vessel dissection (n = 143).ResultsThe median age of the entire cohort was 62 years, with the arch branch vessel dissection group being younger (60 vs 62 years, P = .048). Both groups had similar aortic arch and descending thoracic aortic diameters, with significantly more DeBakey type I dissections (100% vs 80%) in the arch branch vessel dissection group. The arch branch vessel dissection group had more aortic root replacement (36% vs 27%, P = .0035) and longer aortic crossclamp times (153 vs 128 minutes, P = .007). Postoperative outcomes were similar between the arch branch vessel dissection and no arch branch vessel dissection groups, including stroke (10% vs 5%, P = .12) and operative morality (7% vs 5%, P = .51). The arch branch vessel dissection group had a significantly greater cumulative incidence of reoperation (8-year: 19% vs 4%, P = .04) with a hazard ratio of 2.89 (95% confidence interval, 1.01-8.27; P = .048), which was similar between groups among only DeBakey type I dissections (8-year: 19% vs 5%, P = .11). The 8-year survival was similar between the arch branch vessel dissection and no arch branch vessel dissection groups (76% vs 74%, P = .30).ConclusionsHemiarch replacement was adequate for patients with acute type A aortic dissection with arch branch vessel dissection without cerebral malperfusion syndrome, but carried a higher risk of late reoperation.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:To compare perioperative and long-term outcomes in patients undergoing hemiarch and aggressive arch replacement for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). METHODS:From 1996 to 2017, we compared outcomes of hemiarch (n = 322) versus aggressive arch replacements (zones 2 and 3 arch replacement with implantation of 2-4 arch branches, n = 150) in ATAAD. Indications for aggressive arch were arch aneurysm >4 cm or intimal tear in the aortic arch that was not resectable by hemiarch replacement, or dissection of arch branches with malperfusion. RESULTS:Patients in the aggressive arch group were significantly younger (mean age: 57 vs 61 years old) and had significantly longer hypothermic circulatory arrest, cardiopulmonary bypass, and aortic crossclamp times. There were no significant differences in perioperative outcomes between hemiarch and aggressive arch groups, including 30-day mortality (5.3% vs 7.3%, P = .38) and postoperative stroke rate (7% vs 7%, P = .96). Over 15 years, Kaplan-Meier survival was similar between hemiarch and aggressive arch groups (log-rank P = .55, 10-year survival 70% vs 72%). Given death as a competing factor, incidence rates of reoperation over 15 years (2.1% vs 2.0% per year, P = 1) and 10-year cumulative incidence of reoperation (14% vs 12%, P = .89) for arch and distal aorta pathology were similar between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Both hemiarch and aggressive arch replacement are appropriate approaches for select patients with ATAAD. Aggressive arch replacement should be considered for an arch aneurysm >4 cm or an intimal tear at the arch unable to be resected by hemiarch replacement, or dissection of the arch branches with malperfusion.

Project description:ObjectivesTo investigate the midterm results after zone 0 arch repair with frozen elephant trunks for acute type A aortic dissection.MethodsBetween October 2014 and April 2021, 196 patients underwent zone 0 arch repair with frozen elephant trunks for acute type A aortic dissection. The true lumen area, aortic lumen area, and false lumen status were assessed at four aortic levels, the proximal and distal descending thoracic aorta (level A and level B, respectively), celiac artery branching (level C), and terminal aorta (level D). Aortic remodeling (postoperative area as a percentage of the preoperative area) was classified into 3 groups, positive (true lumen area ≥120% with aortic lumen <120% or true lumen area ≥80% with aortic lumen <80%), minimal (80% ≤ true lumen area and aortic lumen area <120%), and negative remodeling (all other changes).ResultsIn-hospital mortality was 13 (6.6%) patients. The overall survival rate was 85.1% at 5 years. The freedom from distal aortic reintervention was 89.9% at 5 years. The prevalence of completely thrombosed or obliterated false lumen at 2 years was 96.8% at level A, 88.4% at level B, 47.2% at level C, and 27.6% at level D. The prevalence of positive aortic remodeling at 2 years was 84.7% at level A, 75.0% at level B, 29.2% at level C, and 16.7% at level D.ConclusionsZone 0 arch repair with frozen elephant trunks for acute type A aortic dissection can avoid invasive aortic arch resection and facilitate aortic remodeling of the descending thoracic aorta. The FET effect on aortic remodeling is limited at the aortic level below the FET stent end.

Project description:BackgroundAs hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) is being more frequently induced in patients undergoing aortic arch surgery, its safety at different degrees has become a crucial area of study. The aim of this study was to assess the surgical outcomes of mild hypothermic circulatory arrest (MI-HCA) during aortic arch surgery.MethodsAcute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) patients who underwent total arch replacement (TAR) and frozen elephant trunk (FET) surgery between January 2014 and December 2023 were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into two groups according to the minimum nasopharyngeal temperature: the moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest (MHCA) group (20-28 °C) and the MI-HCA group (> 28 °C). The inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was used to balance differences in the baseline characteristics. Perioperative variables were analysed via pairwise comparisons, multivariable logistic regression, and subgroup forest plots to assess the impact of MI-HCA on surgical outcomes.ResultsA total of 447 patients were included in this study, and the mean minimum nasopharyngeal temperature was 24.80 (23.98, 27.30) °C in the MHCA group and 30.10 (29.80, 30.70) °C in the MI-HCA group. The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in the MI-HCA group was lower than that in the MHCA group (52% vs. 78%, p < 0.01). In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, MI-HCA was identified as an independent protective factor for AKI (OR = 0.354, 95% CI 0.177-0.689; p = 0.003). Additionally, compared with MHCA, MI-HCA was not associated with an increased incidence of stroke, spinal cord injury, or in-hospital mortality. After IPTW, the preoperative and intraoperative data of the patients were balanced, and the incidence of AKI in the MI-HCA group was still lower than that in the MHCA group (83.26% vs. 53.61%, p = 0.004). The subgroup forest plot also demonstrated that MI-HCA was a protective factor for postoperative AKI.ConclusionsThe surgical outcomes of MI-HCA in ATAAD patients were satisfactory. Compared with MHCA, MI-HCA provided sufficient protection for distal organs, the brain, and the spinal cord, with a significantly lower incidence of AKI. These results indicate that MI-HCA could be a better approach for ATAAD surgery.
