Abstract:
Objective To summarize the treatment experience and strategies of patients with acute type A aortic dissection involving coronary arteries in order to improve the efficacy of such patients.Methods Between March 2013 and April 2016,we recruited 37 patients with coronary involvement caused by acute type A aortic dissection,26 men,11 women;mean age (49.7 ± 10.4) years.All procedures were done on an emergency basis within 24 hours after the patient's arrival.Results Acute type A aortic dissection with coronary involvement is a more complex operation associated with high in-hospital mortality(18.9%,7/37) and low short-term survival(64.9%,13/37).There were 9 patients underwent coronary artery bypass graft after completion of the root procedure because of ventricular wall motion abnormality(7 patients) and new ST-segment elevation (2 patients) during weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass.Four of them were survival during follow-up due to the success from rescue coronary artery bypass graft.Conclusion Acute type A aortic dissection with coronary involvement is associated with high in-hospital mortality and low short-term survival.If patients suffered abnormal ventricular wall motion or new ST-segment elevation during weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass,rescue coronary artery bypass graft is essential to salvage these critically ill patients.
