Abstract:
Objective To summarize the results and methods of left subclavian artery revascularization by stented trunk fenestration for acute Stanford type A aortic dissection.Methods Clinical data of 67 patients (54 male and 13 female,mean age of (50 ± 10) years) underwent surgical treatment of left subclavian artery fenestration for acute Stanford A aortic dissection in Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery,Changhai Hospital,Second Military Medical College between September 2008 and December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.The origin of the left subclavian artery was in the true lumen and no dissection existed near the artery's starting.There were 18 cases of Marfan's syndrome.Preoperative echocardiography showed moderate to severe aortic regurgitation in 10 cases,and mitral regurgitation in 3 cases.Electrocardiogram showed myocardial ischemia in 5 cases.Three patients had acute impaired renal function.All the patients received total arch replacement combined with stented elephant trunk implantation.Left subclavian artery revascularization was performed by stented trunk fenestration as follows:firstly,stented elephant trunk was implanted to completely cover the left subclavian artery,then part of stented trunk's polyester lining was removed which is located at the origin of left subclavian artery.Aortic root procedures included aortic valve replacement in 2 cases,Bentall procedure in 21 cases and aortic valve sparing in 44 cases.Three patients received mitral valve repair and 6 patients received coronary artery bypass grafting.Results The cardiopulmonary bypass time,cross-clamp time,and circulatory arrest time were (179 ± 32) minutes,(112 ± 25) minutes,and (26 ± 10) minutes,respectively.The in-hospital mortality was 7.5％ (5/67):2 patients died of multiple organ failure,1 patient died of acute renal failure and another 2 patients died of severe infection shock.Two patients required reexploration for root bleeding.Transient neurology dysfunction developed in 6 patients.Six patients received tracheotomy and prolonged ventilation due to pulmonary infection.All patients discharged from the hospital were followed up for 1 to 5 years.During long-term follow-up,the survival rate was 100％ and 89.8％ at 1 and 5 years,respectively.CT angiography was performed once per year after discharged.The left subclavian artery perfusion was good.No dissection or anastomosis leakage was identified in any case.Stroke and left limb ischemia did not develope.Conclusion For acute Stanford type A aortic dissection whose origin of the left subclavian artery is in the true lumen and no dissection existed near the artery's starting,the left subclavian artery revascularization by stented trunk fenestration technique during total arch replacement combined with stented elephant trunk implantation is reliable and effective.
