ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of a diagnostic strategy combining D-dimer and aortic dissection detection risk score (ADDRS) for patients with acute aortic dissection (AAD). Methods The clinical data of 750 patients with suspected AAD in emergency department of Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University from January 2016 to January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, including medical history, gender, age, chief complaint, physical examination, diagnostic imaging data and D-dimer levels on admission. ADDRS = 0 was defined as low risk group, ADDRS = 1 as medium risk group, ADDRS≤1 as non-high risk group,whereas ADDRS > 1 as high risk group. The clinical characteristics of AAD and non-AAD patients, ADDRS, D-dimer, and the diagnostic ability of D-dimer (the cutoff value of 500 μg/L) for AAD in different risk groups were observed. Results AAD was diagnosed in 79 of 750 (10.53%) patients. Of the 256 (34.13%) patients in low risk group, 5 patients were diagnosed with AAD. The medium risk group had 337 (44.93%) patients, including 44 cases with AAD. The high risk group had 157 (20.93%) patients, including 30 cases with AAD. In AAD patients, the proportion of male and hypertension, the incidence of ADDRS risk markers (including abrupt onset of pain, severe pain intensity, ripping or tearing pain, pulse deficit or systolic blood pressure differential of upper limb, focal neurological deficit, recent aortic manipulation, known thoracic aortic aneurysm) and the D-dimer levels in AAD group were significantly higher than those of non-AAD patients [male: 82.28% (65/79) vs. 59.76% (401/671), hypertension: 81.01% (64/79) vs. 41.43% (278/671), abrupt onset of pain: 78.48% (62/79) vs. 39.94% (268/671), severe pain intensity: 78.48% (62/79) vs. 50.52% (339/671), ripping or tearing pain: 32.91% (26/79) vs. 0.75% (5/671), pulse deficit or systolic blood pressure differential of upper limb: 15.19% (12/79) vs. 0.15% (1/671), focal neurological deficit: 7.59% (6/79) vs. 1.64% (11/671), recent aortic manipulation: 6.33% (5/79) vs. 0.30% (2/671), known thoracic aortic aneurysm: 15.19% (12/79) vs. 0.30% (2/671), D-dimer (μg/L): 1 160 (588, 3 340) vs 135 (56, 478), all P < 0.05], the proportion of diabetics was significantly lower than that of non-AAD patients [7.59% (6/79) vs. 18.78% (126/671), P < 0.05]. The positive predictive values of D-dimer for AAD diagnosis in the low risk group and the non-high-risk groups (including low and medium risk groups) were lower than that in the high risk group (8.62%, 26.32% vs. 40.91%), the negative predictive values of D-dimer were higher in the low risk group and non-high-risk groups than that in the high risk group (100.00%, 99.05% vs. 96.70%), missed diagnosis rates were higher than that in high risk group (0, 0.95%, vs. 3.30%). Conclusion In the high risk group, D-dimer≥500 μg/L is helpful for diagnosis of AAD; and in low risk group or non-high-risk group, D-dimer < 500 μg/L can efficiently and accurately exclude AAD.

ABSTRACT

Objective To preliminary evaluate the mid-term clinical effect of endovascular repair in treating spontaneous extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection,and to observe the patency of stent.Methods The clinical data and imaging materials of 6 patients with spontaneous extracranial ICA dissection,who were treated with endovascular repair during the period from March 2012 to December 2012,were retrospectively analyzed.The U.S.National Institute of Heahh Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores were determined before and after endovascular repair,and the postoperative stent patency condition was assessed,the results were analyzed.Results A total of 6 patients,including 4 males and 2 females with a median age of 50 years old (40.75-54.75 years old),received endovascular repair therapy.The median interval from the onset of disease to accept endovascular treatment was 10 days (one week-3 months).After the implantation of stent,the blood flow in the true lumen returned to normal immediately,although part of the false lumen was still filled with contrast agent.Embolism of retinal artery occurred in one patient during the operation,no death occurred.The median follow-up time was 54.4 months (49.7-57.9 months).The NIHSS score determined at the last follow-up visit was not significantly different from the preoperative one (P=0.102).Imaging reexamination revealed that the false lumen at the ICA stent segment disappeared in all 6 patients,and no obvious in-stent stenotic changes were observed.Conclusion Endovascular therapy of selected symptomatic extracranial carotid artery dissection with bare stents can effectively prevent the recurrence of clinical symptoms and promote ICA remodeling with excellent mid-term patency.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the feasibility and preventive effect of benign esophageal restenosis by binding 125I seeds to upper esophageal stent through animal experiments.Methods Eight 125I seeds were evenly bound to upper normal esophageal stents for the animal experiments.A total of 32 beagle dogs were randomly assigned to 2 groups:experimental group,implanted with esophageal stents with eight 125I seeds (33.3 MBq),and the control (stents without 125I seeds).Four dogs of each group were killed at the 1 st,2nd,4th,and 8th week after imaging studies.The tissue of 2 cm upper stent underwent pathology analysis.Results All the novel stents were successfully implanted.No radioactive leak was detected by ECT.The lumen diameter of the top stent showed the tract gradually narrowed and at the 4th and 8th weeks,the experiment group narrowed more seriously compared with the control group and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).PCNA,ot-SMA mean optical density were significantly different in the 4th week.Both hydroxyproline and total amino acid increased progressively,with significant difference at the 4th and 8th weeks.The macroscopic and optical findings of the trachea and major vessels were basically the same in both groups.Conclusion The novel stent is feasible and safe for preventing benign esophageal restenosis and preventing benign esophageal stent restenosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish and observe the canine model with esophageal stent implantation for further study of the benign stenosis caused by proliferation.Methods According to orthogonal design,different combinations of two stents and six polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) patches were confirmed.Stent was designed as cylinder with mushroom shape on both ends.Beagle dogs (weight 10-12 kg) were adopted and cervical segment of esophagus were dissected.After PTFE patch was encircled around the esophagus,stent was delivered under fluoroscopy.The main body of the stent was located in accordance with the patch.Eating condition and position of the stent were followed on week 1,2,4,6 and 8.Gross specimen was harvested at the end point,and the degree of tissue hyperplasia was evaluated.Each animal model was given a mark according to the eating condition and tissue hyperplasia.Results Eight combinations of stent and patch were provided with orthogonal design.Three models failed for the following reasons:unable to eat in one dog,stent disgorged out in another,and the third died from esophageal necrosis between stent and patch.Four models had obvious tissue hyperplasia on the segment of stent,and weight loss or stent dislocation were observed in each model.One model developed appropriate tissue hyperplasia with normal diet,and stent dislocation was not found during the follow-up.Significant difference was confirmed among 8 models (F =14.7000,P =0.031).Conclusion Animal model with appropriate tissue hyperplasia could be established with following elements:beagle dogs weight from 10 kg to 12 kg; stent 50 mm in length,20 mm in diameter,with top mushroom 10 mm in length,30 mm in diameter,and end mushroom 10 mm in length,25 mm in diameter; PTFE patch 60 mm in length,15 mm in width.
