Abstract:
Objective This retrospective study is to analyze and summarize the clinical features and therapeutic experience of the isolated abdominal aortic dissection(IAAD). Methods Totally 17 patients of IAAD, who were admitted to our hospital from January 2009 to January 2016, were included in this retrospective analysis. Five patients with obvious pain or abdominal aorta diameter of 30 mm accompanied with sub-renal anchorage area of 15 mm, underwent endovascular repair. In these 5 patients, 4 cases were subjected to bifurcated stent graft endovascular repair and 1 case received the aorta uni-iliac endovascular repair combined with femoral-femoral artery bypass treatment. Moreover, 2 patients with sub-renal anchorage area of less than 15 mm were subjected to surgical treatment. In these 2 patients, 1 case with obvious pain and abdominal aorta diameter of 30 mm underwent the abdominal aorta-right iliac artery bypass combined with femoral-femoral artery bypass, while the other case with abdominal aorta diameter of 30 mm but no pain received the abdominal aorta-bilateral iliac artery bypass. Furthermore, 8 patients with no obvious pain and abdominal aorta diameter of less than 30 mm received conservative medical treatment. In addition, there were 2 patients with obvious pain and abdominal aorta diameter of 30 mm suffering from sudden death during the surgical preparation. Important complications of these patients during hospitalization and follow-up period were recorded, analyzed, and compared. Results For the 5 patients undergoing endovascular repair, the averaged hospitalization duration was(15.4 ± 2.9)d, one of whom died during hospitalization. There were 3 cases with follow-up period of ≥ 12 months, and 1 case reported left iliac branch occlusion. For the 2 patients subjected to surgical treatment, the follow-up period was less than 12 months, and no serious complications occurred during hospitalization or follow-up period. For the 8 patients receiving conservative medical treatment, the averaged hospitalization duration was(11.1±5.2)d. There were 4 cases with follow-up period of ≥ 12 months, and no serious complications occurred during hospitalization or follow-up period. Conclusions Endo or open surgical treatment is recommended for patients with isolated abdominal aortic dissection with obvious pain or abdominal aortic diameter of 30 mm. For the patients with no pain and abdominal aortic diameter of less than 30 mm, conservative medical treatment is recommended.
