Effects of Obesity on Outcomes of Acute Type A Aortic Dissection Repair in Japan.

ABSTRACT: Background: The prevalence of obesity among Japanese acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) patients and its effect on repair outcomes remain to be elucidated. Methods?and?Results: The prevalence of obesity (body mass index [BMI] ?30.0 kg/m²) among 1,059 patients (mean [±SD] age 64.3±12.7 years) who underwent ATAAD repair between 1990 and 2018 was compared with that among the general Japanese population (National Health and Nutrition Survey data). The prevalence of obesity among male patients (17.1% [6/35], 20.0% [18/90], and 14.4% [20/139] for those aged 20-39, 40-49, and 50-59 years, respectively) was significantly higher than that among the age- and sex-matched general population. The 1,059 patients were divided into groups according to weight (normal [BMI <25.0 kg/m²; n=742], overweight [BMI 25.0-29.9 kg/m²; n=248], or obese [BMI ?30.0 kg/m²; n=69]). Comparing the normal weight, overweight, and obese groups revealed significant differences among the 3 groups in median cardiopulmonary bypass time (143, 167, and 183 min, respectively), ventilation >48 h (44.5%, 60.1%, and 78.3%, respectively), and in-hospital mortality (7.0%, 7.3%, and 17.4%, respectively), but not in 30-day survival. Shock, visceral malperfusion, operation time >360 min, obesity, and coronary malperfusion were identified as predictors of in-hospital mortality. Conclusions: The prevalence of obesity is increased among Japanese male patients with ATAAD aged ?59 years. Obesity may increase these patients' operative risk; overweight does not.

Project description:Background Female sex is known to have increased perioperative mortality in cardiac surgery. Studies reporting effects of sex on outcome following surgical repair for acute Type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) have been limited by small cohorts of heterogeneous patient populations and have shown diverging results. This study aimed to compare perioperative characteristics, operative management, and postoperative outcome between sexes in a large and well-defined cohort of patients operated for ATAAD.Methods The Nordic Consortium for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection study included patients with surgical repair of ATAAD at eight Nordic centers between January 2005 and December 2014. Independent predictors of 30-day mortality were identified using multivariable logistic regression.Results Females represented 373 (32%) out of 1,154 patients and were significantly older (65 ± 11 vs. 60 ± 12 years, p < 0.001), had lower body mass index (25.8 ± 5.4 vs. 27.2 ± 4.3 kg/m2, p < 0.001), and had more often a history of hypertension (59% vs. 48%, p = 0.001) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (8% vs. 4%, p = 0.033) compared with males. More females presented with DeBakey class II as compared with males with dissection of the ascending aorta alone (33.4% vs. 23.1%, p = 0.003). Hypothermic cardiac arrest time (28 ± 16 vs. 31 ± 19 minutes, p = 0.026) and operation time (345 ± 133 vs. 374 ± 135 minutes, p < 0.001) were shorter among females. There was no difference between the sexes in unadjusted intraoperative death (9.1% vs. 6.7%, p = 0.17) or 30-day mortality (17.7% vs. 17.4%, p = 0.99). In a multivariable analysis including perioperative factors influencing mortality, no difference was found between females and males in 30-day mortality (odds ratio: 0.92, 95% confidence interval: 0.62-1.38, p = 0.69).Conclusions This study found no association between sex and early mortality following surgery for ATAAD, despite females being older and having more comorbidities, yet also presenting with a less widespread dissection than males.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:The study objective was to evaluate the perioperative and long-term outcomes of aortic root repair and aortic root replacement and provide evidence for root management in acute type A aortic dissection. METHODS:From 1996 to 2017, 491 patients underwent aortic root repair (n = 307) or aortic root replacement (n = 184) (62% bioprosthesis) for acute type A aortic dissection. Indications for aortic root replacement were intimal tear at the aortic root, root measuring 4.5 cm or more, connective tissue disease, or unrepairable aortic valvulopathy. Primary outcomes were in-hospital mortality, long-term survival, and reoperation rate for root pathology. RESULTS:Patients' median age was 61 years and 56 years in the aortic root repair group and aortic root replacement group, respectively. The aortic root replacement group had more renal failure requiring dialysis, previous cardiac intervention or surgery, heart failure, coronary malperfusion syndrome, acute myocardial infarction, and severe aortic insufficiency, as well as concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting, tricuspid valve repair, and longer cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic crossclamp times but similar arch procedures. Perioperative outcomes were similar in the aortic root repair and aortic root replacement groups, including in-hospital mortality (8.5% and 8.2%), new-onset renal failure requiring permanent dialysis, stroke, myocardial infarction, and sepsis. Kaplan-Meier 10-year survival was 62% and 65%, and the 15-year cumulative incidence of reoperation was 11% and 7% in the aortic root repair and aortic root replacement groups, respectively. The primary indication for root reoperation was aortic root aneurysm in the aortic root repair group and bioprosthetic valve deterioration in the aortic root replacement group. CONCLUSIONS:Aortic root repair and aortic root replacement are appropriate surgical options for acute type A aortic dissection repair with favorable short- and long-term outcomes. Aortic root replacement should be performed for patients with acute type A aortic dissection presenting with an intimal tear at the aortic root, root aneurysm 4.5 cm or greater, connective tissue disease, or unrepairable aortic valvulopathy.

Project description:Background The treatment of chronic type B aortic dissection by thoracic endovascular aortic repair has some challenges, and its long-term outcomes remain unclear. This study aimed to analyze the 5-year clinical outcomes of thoracic endovascular aortic repair of chronic type B aortic dissection, compare the differences between patients with and without adverse aortic events (AAEs), and identify risk factors for AAEs. Methods and Results Patients who underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair of chronic type B aortic dissection from January 2009 to June 2017 were retrospectively enrolled. The primary end points were AAEs, including aorta-related death, procedural complications, and disease progression requiring reintervention. Clinical outcomes were described at the 5-year follow-up visit. The secondary end point was the comparison of the results between patients with and without AAEs. Univariable and multivariable logistic analyses were used to identify potential risk factors for AAEs. A total of 214 patients were enrolled. AAEs occurred in 46 (21.5%) patients. Compared with patients without AAEs, those with AAEs had higher rates of residual type A aortic dissection (26.1% versus 4.2%, P<0.001) and aortic diameter ≥5.5 cm (69.6% versus 11.3%, P<0.001), and a lower rate of complete false lumen thrombosis (23.9% versus 89.9%, P<0.001). Meanwhile, the median interval from symptom onset to intervention was longer in patients with AAEs (26 months versus 12 months, P=0.004). Partial or no false lumen thrombosis (adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 14.71 [95% CI, 5.67-38.14; P<0.001]) and aortic diameter ≥5.5 cm (AOR, 10.16 [95% CI, 3.86-26.73; P<0.001]) were identified as independent risk factors for AAEs. Conclusions While thoracic endovascular aortic repair of chronic type B aortic dissection might be challenging in some cases, its long-term outcomes appeared promising as this treatment was effective in preventing catastrophic aortic events. Patients with AAEs showed higher rates of residual type A aortic dissection and aortic diameter ≥5.5 cm, a lower rate of complete false lumen thrombosis, and a longer median interval from symptom onset to intervention. Failure of complete false lumen thrombosis and an aortic diameter ≥5.5 cm were predictors of AAEs.

Project description:ObjectiveThe study objective was to assess the radiological properties of acute type A aortic dissection-related neurological injuries and identify predictors of neurological injury.MethodsOur single-center, retrospective, observational study included all patients who underwent acute type A aortic dissection repair between January 1998 and December 2021. Multivariable analyses and Cox regression were performed to identify predictors of embolic lesions, watershed lesions, neurological injury, 30-day mortality, and late mortality.ResultsA total of 538 patients were included. Of these, 120 patients (22.3%) experienced postoperative neurological injury; 74 patients (13.8%) had postoperative stroke, and 36 patients (6.8%) had postoperative coma. The 30-day mortality was 22.7% in the neurological injury group versus 5.8% in the no neurological injury group (P < .001). We identified several independent predictors of neurological injury. Cerebral malperfusion (odds ratio, 2.77; 95% confidence interval, 1.53-5.00), systemic hypotensive shock (odds ratio, 1.97; 95% confidence interval, 1.13-3.43), and aortic arch replacement (odds ratio, 3.08; 95% confidence interval, 1.17-8.08) predicted embolic lesions. Diabetes mellitus (odds ratio, 5.35; 95% confidence interval, 1.85-15.42), previous cardiac surgery (odds ratio, 8.62; 95% confidence interval, 1.47-50.43), duration of hypothermic circulatory arrest (odds ratio, 1.05; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.08), cardiopulmonary bypass time (odds ratio, 1.01; 95% confidence interval, 1.00-1.01), ascending aortic/arch cannulation (odds ratio, 5.68; 95% confidence interval, 1.88-17.12), and left ventricular cannulation (odds ratio, 17.81; 95% confidence interval, 1.69-188.01) predicted watershed lesions. Retrograde cerebral perfusion (odds ratio, 0.28; 95% confidence interval, 0.01-0.84) had a protective effect against watershed lesions.ConclusionsIn this study, we demonstrated that the radiological features of neurological injury may be as important as clinical characteristics in understanding the pathophysiology and causality behind neurological injury related to acute type A aortic dissection repair.
