Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the valve sparing aortic reimplantation in selected patients with acute type A aortic dissection(AAAD).Methods From October 2012 to March 2014, 65 AAAD patients with entry tear located in the sinus of Valsalva and/or genetic: syndrome underwent emergent operation.Of them, 34 patients had valve sparing aortic reimplantation(David Ⅰ group) , and 31 patients underwent aortic composite replacement(Bentall group).Results No operative mortality was observed in this study.In-hospital mortality(8.8％ vs.9.7％ , P ＞ 0.05) and morbidity (25.4％ vs.27.9％, P ＞0.05) were comparable between two groups.All the patients underwent arch replacement and stented elephant trunk implantation concomitantly.Mean cross-clamp time [(149 ± 23) min v s.(124 ± 21) min, P ＜ 0.05] was longer for David Ⅰ group, while mean cardiopulmonary bypass time[(186 ± 77) min vs.(193 ± 89) min, P ＞0.05] and mean operation time [(341 ± 137) min vs.(378 ± 174) min, P ＞ 0.05] had no significant difference between two groups.The blood transfusion was significantly reduced in David Ⅰ group than that in Bentall group[(1 180 ±490) ml vs.(1 790 ±560) ml, P ＜0.05].The mean follow-up was(17.6 ± 5.4) months(range, 8-26 months).In David Ⅰ group, one patient with genetic syndrome died of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm 18 months postoperatively.Two late deaths occurred in Bentall group due to intracranial hemorrhage after 9 months and ruptured infective pseudoaneurysm after 13 months respectively.In David Ⅰ group, average grade of aortic regurgitation 6 months postoperatively was 0.6 ± 0.4.At the latest visit, no pseudoaneurysm on anastomosis was observed.Besides two patients from Bentall group were in NYHA class Ⅱ , all the other patients presented in NYHA class Ⅰ.Conclusion David Ⅰ aortic root reimplantation can be performed safely and obtain excellent short-term results in selected patients with AAAD.Long-term results need continuing follow-up.
