Extended neuromonitoring in aortic arch surgery : A case series.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Aortic arch repair for aortic dissection is still associated with a high mortality rate. Providing adequate means of neuromonitoring to guide cerebral hemodynamics is advantageous, especially during selective anterior cerebral perfusion (SACP).

Objective

We aimed to investigate an easy multimodal neuromonitoring set-up consisting of processed electroencephalography (EEG), near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), and transcranial doppler sonography (TCD).

Material and methods

We collected intraoperative data from six patients undergoing surgery for aortic dissection. In addition to standard hemodynamic monitoring, patients underwent continuous bilateral NIRS, processed EEG with bispectral index (BIS), and intermittent transcranial doppler sonography of the medial cerebral artery (MCA) with a standard B‑mode ultrasound device. Doppler measurements were taken bilaterally before cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), during CPB, and during SACP at regular intervals.

Results

Of the patients four survived without neurological deficits while two suffered fatal outcomes. Of the survivors two suffered from transient postoperative delirium. Multimodal monitoring led to a change in CPB flow or cannula repositioning in three patients. Left-sided mean flow velocities of the MCA decreased during SACP, as did BIS values.

Conclusion

Monitoring consisting of BIS, NIRS, and TCD may have an impact on hemodynamic management in aortic arch operations.

Simplifying aortic arch surgery: open zone 2 arch with single branched thoracic endovascular aortic repair completion.

Project description:Distal aortic complications from acute DeBakey I dissection repair are an important source of late morbidity and mortality. We present an early experience of using a novel single-branched thoracic aortic endograft in conjunction with open techniques to treat acute DeBakey I aortic dissection.The patients in this series include five hyperacute dissections managed with a combined zone 2 partial arch replacement and placement of a zone 2 single subclavian branch endograft.There were no perioperative mortalities, strokes, or spinal cord ischemia in any patients at either stage of the procedure. At follow-up imaging, no patients had anterograde flow into the false lumen. All patients experienced false lumen thrombosis in the stented portion of the aorta.This combination of open repair techniques and the use of a novel branched endograft resulted in excellent early outcomes in this pioneer series. Further investigation of these techniques in a prospective fashion is warranted.

A case report: stent implantation to treat coarctation of persistent 5th aortic arch associated with interrupted 4th aortic arch.

Project description:Persistent 5th aortic arch is a rare cardiac anomaly that is usually surgically corrected during infancy or early childhood if it is associated with coarctation of the aorta. Here, we report an adult with coarctation of the 5th aortic arch who was successfully treated by stent implantation. An asymptomatic 32-year-old woman presented with hypertension and a significant arm-leg difference in pressure. On suspicion of coarctation of the aorta, a chest computed tomography was performed, leading to a diagnosis of an interrupted 4th aortic arch with coarctation of a persistent 5th aortic arch. Percutaneous catheter intervention using a PALMAZ large stent dilated to 12 mm resulted in a minimal peak-to-peak pressure gradient. The patient was discharged home after a 2-day monitoring without hypertension and arm-leg blood pressure difference. She remained normotensive with a patent aortic arch on echocardiography performed 10 months after treatment. As for simple coarctation of the aorta, stent implantation was feasible and effective in an adult patient with coarctation of the 5th aortic arch.

Prosthetic Graft Dilation at the Aortic Arch in the Era of Hybrid Aortic Surgery.

Project description:Objective: This study aims to evaluate the chronological size changes of the prosthetic graft in the aortic arch, which is used as a landing zone for a subsequent stent grafting in hybrid aortic surgery. Materials and Methods: Eighty-five patients who underwent total aortic arch replacement followed by computed tomography follow-up for at least 30 months after the surgery were included in the study. Results: Prosthetic grafts used were Hemashield (Maquet, Rastatt, Germany), J-Graft (Japan Lifeline Inc., Tokyo, Japan) and Triplex (Terumo, Tokyo, Japan). There was an initial increase in diameter compared to package size after implantation (Hemashield, 1.04±0.035 vs. J-Graft, 1.06±0.027 vs. Triplex, 1.04±0.023, p=0.13). Significant difference in graft dilation ratio was observed in Triplex (1.18±0.062) at long-term compared to Hemashield (1.07±0.052, p<0.001) and J-Graft (1.10±0.071, p<0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that age (r=0.002; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.0001-0.0037; p=0.035), knitted-type prosthesis (r=0.089; 95% CI, 0.0610-0.1163; p<0.0001), and prevalence of cerebral vascular disease (r=0.038; 95% CI, 0.0030-0.0732; p=0.034) were independently associated with graft dilation after surgery. Conclusion: Prosthetic graft selection and appropriate sizing of the stent graft should be considered for each individual undergoing hybrid aortic surgery to maintain sufficient oversizing of the stent graft.

Hemodynamic numerical simulation of aortic arch modular inner branched stent-graft in eight early patients from the first-in-human case series.

Project description:BackgroundThe modular inner branched stent-graft (MIBSG) (WeFlow-Arch™) is an emerging device for challenging aortic arch pathologies. Hemodynamic numerical simulation is conducive to predicting long-term outcomes as well as optimizing the stent-graft design.ObjectiveThis study aims to analyze the hemodynamic characteristics of the MIBSG devices based on numerical simulation analyses.MethodsFrom June 2019 to June 2021, MIBSGs were utilized in eight cases. Numerical simulation analyses of branch perfusion and indicators including the time-averaged wall shear stress, oscillatory shear index, and relative residence time were performed.ResultsLesions involved Zone 1 (n = 2), Zone 2 (n = 4), and Zone 3 (n = 2). Branched stent-grafts were deployed in the innominate artery and left common carotid artery (n = 5) or in the innominate artery and left subclavian artery (n = 3). The hemodynamic change in common was increased perfusion in the descending aorta and left common carotid artery. Half of the patients had increased cerebral perfusion of 8.7% at most, and the other half of the patients showed a reduction of 5.3% or less. Case 3 was considered to have acquired the greatest improvement in hemodynamic features.ConclusionThe MIBSG showed improved hemodynamic features in most cases. The design of the MIBSG could be partly modified to acquire better hemodynamic performance.

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.

Perioperative cerebral perfusion in aortic arch surgery: a potential link with neurological outcome.

Project description:ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to examine whether perioperative changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) relate to postoperative neurological deficits in patients undergoing aortic arch surgery involving antegrade selective cerebral perfusion (ASCP).MethodsWe retrospectively analysed data from patients who underwent aortic arch surgery involving ASCP and perioperative transcranial Doppler assessments. Linear mixed-model analyses were performed to examine perioperative changes in mean bilateral blood velocity in the middle cerebral arteries, reflecting changes in CBF, and their relation with neurological deficits, i.e. ischaemic stroke and/or delirium. Logistic regression analyses were performed to explore possible risk factors for postoperative neurological deficits.ResultsIn our study population (N = 102), intraoperative blood velocities were lower compared to preoperative levels, and lowest during ASCP. Thirty-six (35%) patients with postoperative neurological deficits (ischaemic stroke, n = 9; delirium, n = 25; both, n = 2) had lower blood velocity during ASCP compared to patients without (25.4 vs 37.0 cm/s; P = 0.002). Logistic regression analyses revealed lower blood velocity during ASCP as an independent risk factor for postoperative neurological deficits (odds ratio = 0.959; 95% confidence interval: 0.923, 0.997; P = 0.037).ConclusionsLower intraoperative CBF during ASCP seems independently related to postoperative neurological deficits in patients undergoing aortic arch surgery. Because CBF is a modifiable factor during ASCP, our observation has significant potential to improve clinical management and prevent neurological deficits.

Persistent fifth aortic arch associated with aortic coarctation: a case of surgical correction without artificial material.

Project description:BackgroundPersistent fifth aortic arch (PFAA) is a rare anomaly often associated with aortic coarctation or interruption, and various surgical techniques for this anomaly have been reported. Herein, we show a case of an infant with PFAA and severe aortic coarctation.Case presentationA 41-day-old female infant was admitted for sustained fever. Initially, the patient was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis, and echocardiography showed PFAA with severe aortic coarctation. Because the patient presented progressive oliguria and metabolic acidosis, she was transferred for emergency cardiac surgical intervention. The aortic arch was reconstructed using end-to-side anastomosis between the fifth aortic arch and the descending aorta without any artificial conduit or patching material.ConclusionsPFAA with aortic coarctation can be repaired by various surgical methods. Among them, our surgical approach is easy and effective, has growth potential, and an additional surgery is not needed.

Surgeon-modified fenestrated endograft for urgent an aortic arch aneurysm: case report

Project description:We report the case of an endovascular repair of an aortic arch aneurysm by a surgeon-modified fenestrated endograft with a single fenestration in a high-risk patient unfit for open surgery. A patient of 84 years, chronic ischemic cardiopathic, suffering from prostate adenocarcinoma in chemotherapy treatment, came to our hospital for post-traumatic fracture of the right femur. During the hospitalization, the patient exhibited dysphonia and respiratory disorders for several days, therefore, the patient performed Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) that found the presence of voluminous aneurysm of the aortic arch with a maximum diameter of about 74 mm. The patient was treated with a hybrid-staged procedure; in the first instance, with a carotid-carotid-succlavium bypass to preserve the cerebral and upper limb vascularization and then, the procedure was completed by implanting the surgeon-modified fenestrated endograft with stent delivery to the patient with a fenestration on the anonymous trunk. This surgeon-modified fenestrated endograft was created by modifying a standard endograft by a single fenestration following the three-dimensional reconstructions of the CTA images. The procedure was successfully completed and postoperative course was uneventful. Computed Tomography Angiography demonstrated the exclusion of the aneurysm, patency of the implanted endograft modules, and absence of signs of endoleaks and / or cerebral or medullary ischemic complications.
