Abstract:
Objective To summarize the clinical efficacy of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) in the treatment of Stanford type B thoracic aortic dissection. Methods The clinical data of 80 patients with Stanford type B aortic dissection who had underwent TEVAR in cardiac surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from January 2017 to December 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, there were 56 males and 24 females. The effect of operation and postoperative complications were observed. The diameters of different aortic levels before and after TEVAR were compared in order to understand the aortic remodeling after TEVAR. Results All 80 patients were operated successfully. A total of 87 stents were implanted, of which 2 stents were placed in 7 patients. Four patients died 30 days after operation, 3 of whom were diagnosed as dissection rupture before operation and underwent emergency TEVAR. The cause of death was massive hemorrhage due to re-rupture of dissection. One patient complicated with massive cerebral infarction before operation died of respiratory failure. Six months after operation, CTA showed that the diameter of the aortic true lumen at the level of the left subclavian artery, the maximum diameter of the tumor and the level of the diaphragm significantly increased: (30.1 ± 3.5) mm vs. (24.4 ± 4.2)mm, (33.4 ± 5.1) mm vs. (24.9 ± 6.2) mm,(26.1±4.9) mm vs. (19.3 ± 3.1) mm; all P values<0.01, and the false lumen significantly decreased: (3.5 ± 1.7) mm vs. (11.2 ± 5.7) mm, (9.1 ± 2.4) mm vs. (18.3 ± 5.9) mm, (6.2 ± 1.3) mm vs. (14.7 ± 5.2) mm, all P values<0.01. There was no significant difference in the overall diameter of aorta before and after operation (P > 0.05). Conclusions The treatment of Stanford type B aortic dissection with TEVAR has significantly good short-term clinical efficacy, which is less traumatic and quick to recover. However, the long-term efficacy remains to be observed.
