Abstract:
To explore the pathogenesis and treatment of fever, leukocytosis and thrombocytopenia after endovascular graft exclusion for aortic aneurysm or aortic dissection, 67 patients with infrarenal aortic aneurysm (38) and thoracic aortic dissection (29),were studied,and then received successful endovascular graft exclusion with Dacron covered stent grafts. Sepsis syndrome evaluation (physical examination, analysis of peripheral blood WBC, platelet and urine, chest radiograph, urine and blood cultures) was performed for all patients with postoperative temperature(T) higher than 38 5℃. Fever, leukocytosis and thrombocytopenia in peripheral blood were found in most patients, whose T, WBC and platelet returned to normal between 1 and 2 weeks. Sepsis evaluations failed to identify any source of infection in all patients. These results showed that fever and leukocytosis after endovascular stent graft repair for aortic aneurysm are resulted from systemic inflammatory response syndrome.
