Abstract:
Objective To summarize the treatment of 10 aortic coarctation cases ,who receive the surgery from ascending aorta to thoracic descending aorta with the prosthetic graft, discuss the valuable and appliable of this method. Methods Cardiac surgery, Chinese Acdemy of Medical Sciences, Peking Union Medical College Hospital department treated 10 patients who got the aortic coarctation from Jan. 2006 to Dec. 2015 Seven male patients and 3 cases of female patients consist of the sample, aged from 14 to 35 years old, the median age was 27. One cases consolidated aortic valve deformity and aortic root expansion, the others were simple aortic coarctation. Their upper limbs blood pressure was 20 mmHg higher compared with the low limb. Meanwhile, there was no sign of surgery contraindication. Ten cases received this operation under cardiopulmonary bypass situation. And the patient who consolidate aortic valve deformity and aortic root expansion receive the Bentall surgery at the same time. Results There was no death during perioperative time, no spinal cord ischemic and other serious complications. Those patients went back to outpatient department after discharging from hospital 3 to 6 months. The differential pressure between upperlimbs and low limbs were less than 20 mmHg, and the CTA results indicated no aneurysms. Conclusion Using artificial blood vessels to make a graft from the ascending aorta to the descending aorta is an effective method for treatment of thoracic aorta.
