ABSTRACT

@#Objective To investigate the risk factors for postoperative gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) in patients with type A aortic dissection, and further discuss its prevention and treatment. Methods The clinical data of patients with type A aortic dissection admitted to the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from 2017 to 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into a GIB group and a non-GIB group based on the presence of GIB after surgery. The variables with statistical differences between two groups in univariate analysis were included into a multivariate logistic regression model to analyze the risk factors for postoperative GIB in patients with type A aortic dissection. Results There were 18 patients in the GIB group including 12 males and 6 females, aged 60.11±10.63 years, while 511 patients in the non-GIB group including 384 males and 127 females, aged 49.81±12.88 years. In the univariate analysis, there were statistical differences in age, preoperative percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2)<95%, intraoperative circulatory arrest time, postoperative low cardiac output syndrome, ventilator withdrawal time>72 hours, postoperative FiO2≥50%, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) rate, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) rate, infection rate, length of hospital stay and ICU stay, and in-hospital mortality (all P<0.05). In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, preoperative SpO2<95% (OR=10.845, 95%CI 2.038-57.703), ventilator withdrawal time>72 hours (OR=0.004, 95%CI 0.001-0.016), CRRT (OR=6.822, 95%CI 1.778-26.171) were risk factors for postoperative GIB in patients (P≤0.005). In the intra-group analysis of GIB, non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI) accounted for 38.9% (7/18) and was the main disease type for postoperative GIB in patients with type A aortic dissection. Conclusion In addition to patients with entrapment involving the superior mesenteric artery who are prone to postoperative GIB, preoperative SpO2<95%, ventilator withdrawal time>72 hours, and CRRT are independent risk factors for postoperative GIB in patients with type A aortic dissection. NOMI is a major disease category for GIB, and timely diagnosis and aggressive treatment are effective ways to reduce mortality. Awareness of its risk factors and treatment are also ways to reduce its incidence.

ABSTRACT

@#Objective     To explore the efficacy of prone positioning ventilation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) after acute Stanford type A aortic dissection (STAAD) surgery. Methods     From November 2019 to September 2021, patients with ARDS who was placed prone position after STAAD surgery in the Xiamen Cardiovascular Hospital of Xiamen University were collected. Data such as the changes of blood gas, respiratory mechanics and hemodynamic indexes before and after prone positioning, complications and prognosis were collected for statistical analysis. Results    A total of 264 STAAD patients had surgical treatment, of whom 40 patients with postoperative ARDS were placed prone position. There were 37 males and 3 females with an average age of 49.88±11.46 years. The oxygen partial pressure, oxygenation index and peripheral blood oxygen saturation 4 hours and 12 hours after the prone positioning, and 2 hours and 6 hours after the end of the prone positioning were significantly improved compared with those before prone positioning ventilation (P<0.05). The oxygenation index 2 hours after the end of prone positioning which was less than 131.42 mm Hg, indicated that the patient might need ventilation two or more times of prone position. Conclusion     Prone position ventilation for patients with moderate to severe ARDS after STAAD surgery is a safe and effective way to improve the oxygenation.

ABSTRACT

Objectives To analyze the risk factors and their predictive value for postoperative hypoxemia in Type-A aortic dissection(TAAD).Methods A single-center retrospective study was conducted among 146 consecutive patients diagnosed as TAAD and undergone aortic arch surgery from January 2018 to June 2021 in Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University.According to the lowest postoperative PaO2/FiO2 ratio within 24 hours,the patients were classified into two groups:hypoxemia group(PaO2/FiO2≤200 mmHg)and non-hypoxemia group(PaO2/FiO2>200 mmHg).The difference of preoperative oxygen index,duration of mechanical ventilation and mortality in hospital were analyzed between the two groups.The independent risk factors for postoperative hypoxemia were evaluated by multivariate logistic regression and the predictive value was analyzed by receiver operator character(ROC)curves.Results For TAAD patients,the incidence of postoperative hypoxemia was 45.9%.Compared to non-hypoxemia group,hypoxemia group exhibited longer duration of mechanical ventilation(P<0.001)and longer intensive care unit(ICU)length of stay(P<0.05).Moreover,patients with hypoxemia presented higher mortality during hospital(P=0.011).Multivariate regression analysis identified BMI as independent risk factor(OR=1.701,P<0.001)and preoperation PaO2/FiO2 ratio as protective factors for postoperative hypoxemia in patients with TAAD(OR=0.987,P=0.004).Area under the ROC curve of BMI was 0.848,the optimal cut-off point of BMI was 25.8 kg/m2.Area under the ROC curve of pre-operation PaO2/FiO2 ratio was 0.808,the optimal cut-off point of preoperation PaO2/FiO2 ratio was 265 mmHg.Conclusions BMI higher than 25.8 kg/m2 is an independent risk factor and preoperation PaO2/FiO2 ratio higher than 265 mmHg is a protective factor for postoperative hypoxemia in patients with TAAD.Subjects with hypoxemia had longer duration of mechanical ventilation,ICU stay and higher mortality.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To summarize treatment strategies and outcomes of patient suffer from acute Stanford type A aortic dissection(ATAAD) with mesenteric malperfusion.Methods:We collected 13 patients with mesenteric malperfusion among 321 ATAAD patients underwent surgery at Nanjing First Hospital during January 2019 to September 2022. Characteristics of these patients were recorded. We analyzed their early and late clinical outcomes.Results:Two patients underwent revascularization-first strategy in hybrid operation room had no in-hospital mortality or complication related to mesenteric ischemia. There were 11 patients with central repair-first strategy. Eight patients appeared mesenteric complications and 2 of them needed extra gastrointestinal surgery. Six in-hospital mortality were recorded in central repair-first patients.Conclusion:We recommended revascularization-first strategy with followed central repair in hybrid operation room for patients suffered from ATAAD with mesenteric malperfusion. Those who underwent central repair-first strategy because of coronary artery or cerebral malperfusion and unstable hemodynamic needed percutaneous angiography of mesenteric artery.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To systematically compare the safety and reliability of remodeling and reimplantation in aortic root valve preservation surgery for acute Stanford type A aortic dissection.Methods:We searched the databases of CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, CBM, Pubmed, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials ( CENTRAL ) to find the clinical controlled research literature on acute type A aortic dissection remodeling and replantation. The relevant outcome indicators were analyzed by Review Manager 5.3 combined with Stata15.0 statistical software.Results:Seven studies involving 356 patients were included. Remodeling surgery versus replantation surgery. There was a higher incidence of postoperative grade Ⅱ or Ⅲ aortic regurgitation( OR=5.56, 95% CI: 1.89-16.41, P<0.05 ), higher 5-year reoperation rate ( OR=7.50, 95% CI: 2.11-26.65, P<0.05 ), shorter cardiopulmonary bypass time ( MD=-20.81, 95% CI: -35.08-6.54, P< 0.05 ), and longer aortic occlusion time ( MD=35.23, 95% CI: 21.21-49.26, P<0.05 ). The 30-day/in-hospital mortality( OR=1.09, 95% CI: 0.56-2.13, P>0.05) , postoperateive secondary thoracotomy for hemostasis( OR=2.91, 95% CI: 0.34-24.99, P>0.05), the rate of reoperation 1 year after surgery( OR=1.22, 95% CI: 0.20-7.56, P> 0.05) and 5-year mortality( OR=7.50, 95% CI: 2.11-26.65, P>0.05), were no significant difference between remodeling surgery group and replantation surgery group. Conclusion:Compared with replantation surgery, remodeling surgery in patients with acute type A aortic dissection has a higher incidence of grade Ⅱ or Ⅲ aortic insufficiency, a higher rate of reoperation 5 years after surgery, a shorter duration of cardiopulmonary bypass, and a longer duration of aortic occlusion. There were no statistically significant differences in postoperative hospitalization/30-day mortality, postoperative secondary thoracotomy, reoperation rate 1 year after surgery, and late mortality using remodeling and replantation techniques, which could be selected according to the actual situation of the aortic root and the experience of the surgeon.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for retrograde type A dissection (RTAD) associated with thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) which provided the basis for clinical risk stratification and treatment decision.Methods:The clinical data of 1 688 patients with thoracic aortic disease who underwent TEVAR in our center from January 2004 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The pathological classification included aortic dissection (1 592 cases) and other thoracic aortic diseases (96 cases). Univariate analysis and categorical multiple logistic regression analysis were used to explore the risk factors for the development of RTAD during or after TEVAR.Results:A total of 18 cases of RTAD were found, with an overall incidence of 1.1% (18/1 688), all of which occurred in aortic dissection group. After adjusting for confounding factors, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the incidence of RTAD was significantly decreased(OR=0.27,95%CI 0.07-0.96, P=0.043) when the oversize of stentgraft was 11%-20%, the oversize of stentgraft was ≤10% as the control group, and the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05). The ascending aorta diameter was <40 mm as the control group, and there was no significant difference in the incidence of RTAD between the ≥40 mm group and the control group(OR=2.71,95%CI 0.94-7.84, P=0.065). Conclusions:Aortic dissection is more likely to develop RTAD than other thoracic aortic diseases. A proper stentgraft oversizing ratio could reduce the probability of RTAD. That is to say that a too low stentgraft oversizing ratio is not recommended.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the correlation between intraoperative regional cerebral oxygen saturation(rScO 2) and nerve damage markers with postoperative neurological dysfunction(PND) in patients undergoing acute Stanford type A aortic dissection surgery. Methods:A total of 57 patients undergoing acute Stanford type A aortic dissection surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) in the operating room of Henan Provincial Hospital from July 2020 to May 2021 were enrolled, regardless of gender, aged 35-64 years old, weighed 58.0-90.0 kg and with American Association of Anesthesiologists(ASA) classification status with Ⅱ-Ⅲ. A near infrared spectrometer(NIRS) was used to continuously monitor the bilateral rScO 2 of the patients during the surgery. Central venous blood was drawn 10 min before induction of anesthesia(T0), 10 min after induction of anesthesia(T1), immediately after CPB started(T2), when CPB ended(T3), at the end of the operation(T4), and when exiting ICU(T5), 1 day(T6), 2 days(T7) and 3 days(T8) after operation, and the levels of nerve injury marker S100 calcium binding protein(S100β protein) and neuron-specific enolase(NSE) in serum were measured. Follow up was performed on postoperative 3 to evaluate the occurrence of PND.The value of intraoperative rScO 2 and the concentrations serum S100β protein and NSE were compared between the PND group and the NND(NPND) group. The changes of intraoperative rScO 2 value, the concentrations of serum S100β protein and NSE between the PND group and NPND group were compared. The risk factors of PND and its correlation with the intraoperative rScO 2 value, and the concentrations of serum S100β protein and NSE were analyzed. The prognostic indicators of the two groups of patients were statistically analyzed. Results:Three patients were excluded from the study. A total of 12 patients(22.2%) developed PND(PND group), and 42 patients(77.8%) did not develop PND(NPND group) on postoperative 3 day. Compared with the NPND group, the minimum mean arterial pressure and the minimum rScO 2 during CPB were significantly decreased( P<0.05), the maximum da-rScO 2 during CPB was significantly increased( P<0.05), and duration of da-rScO 2>0.50, duration of da-rScO 2>0.40, duration of rScO 2 reduction >25%, rScO 2<0.50, rScO 2<0.40, during CPB were significantly prolonged( P<0.05) in the PND group. The levels of serum S100β and NSE in the PND group were significantly increased, compared with the NPND group at T2-8, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that the reduction of rScO 2 more than 25%( P=0.033), during of rScO 2<0.40( P=0.007) and duration of da-rScO 2>0.50( P=0.001) during CPB were risk factors of PND. Conclusion:Compared with the NPND group, the postoperative mechanical ventilation time, duration of ICU stay, postoperative hospital stay and PND recovery time were significantly prolonged( P<0.05), and the medical expenses were increased significantly( P<0.05) in the PND group. The duration of the reduction of rScO 2>25%, the duration of rScO 2<0.40 and the duration of da-rScO 2>0.50 during CPB are the risk factors of PND in patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection under CPB. Significantly increased levels of serum nerve injury markers S100β and NSE are related to the occurrence of PND. The occurrence of PND has a significant adverse effect on the early clinical prognosis of patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the neoadventitia technique for root repair in acute type A aortic dissection(ATAAD).Methods:From January 2019 to February 2022, a total of 94 patients with ATAAD who underwent surgical treatment in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different treatment methods for the aortic root, the patients were divided into the neoadventitia technique group(58 cases) and the Bentall group(36 cases). The perioperative data and postoperative follow-up results of the two groups were compared, and the efficacy of the new adventitia technique in acute type A aortic dissection was analyzed.Results:There were no intraoperative deaths. The 30-day mortality was 3.4% and 5.6% in the neoadventitia group and Bentall group, respectively ( P=0.636). The cardiopulmonary bypass time[(154.3±29.8)min, P<0.001] and aortic clamp time[(94.7±20.6)min, P<0.001)]were significantly shorter in the neoadventitia group, compared with the Bentall group. Aortic regurgitation was significantly improved after the operation (0.33±0.50 vs. 1.02±0.80, P<0.001). No aortic root-related secondary intervention occurred during follow-up. There was no significant difference in mortality between the two groups( P=0.248). Conclusion:Neoadventitia root repair is a safe and feasible method for the treatment of ATAAD, which has good short-term and mid-term efficacy.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To summarize the efficacy of artificial blood vessel bypass grafting in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) complicated with lower extremity malperfusion.Methods:From January 2004 to January 2021, a total of 896 patients with ATAAD underwent surgical operations in Nanjing First Hospital, Among which 75 patients with lower extremity malperfusion was retrospectively analyzed.Results:There were 61 males and 14 females with mean age (50.9±11.3) years old. The cardiopulmonary bypass time (CPB) was (181.9±27.0) min, the cross-clamp time was (125.7±25.0)min, and the lower body circulatory arrest time was (20.4±3.1) min. Fifty-five patients had total aortic arch replacement and 20 cases had hemi-arch replacement surgery. Lower extremity arterial perfusion was restored in 48 patients after dissection surgery. Twenty-six patients underwent dissection surgery concurrently with extra-anatomic bypass grafting. The main postoperative complications were: acute kidney injury in 9 cases, delayed extubation (≥72 h) in 10, pulmonary infection in 13, tracheotomy in 6, paralysis in 1, stroke in 2 and lower limb amputation in 3. ICU stay time was (5.8±4.5) days, in-hospital time was (21.4±13.8) days. Nine patients (12%) died in the whole group: pulmonary infection, respiratory failure in 2 cases, multiple organ failure in 3 cases, iliac artery rupture in 1 case, intestinal necrosis in 1 case, severe cerebral infarction in 1 case, and giving-up in 1 case. A total of 66 patients (88%) were successfully discharged. The follow-up time was (55.8±33.4) months. The results of survival analysis showed that the 5-year survival rate was (96.7±4.2)%, and the 10-year survival rate was (56.4±16.3)%.Conclusion:Extra-anatomic bypass grafting is a feasible method to solve ATAAD complicated with lower extremity malperfusion. It is simple and easy to operate, and the long-term effect is satisfactory.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the gender differences in the clinical characteristics and perioperative outcomes of patients with type A aortic dissection in our institution.Methods:From January 2019 to January 2020, total 405 patients underwent surgical treatment for type A aortic dissection at Beijing Anzhen Hospital, including extensive aortic repair (total aortic arch replacement combined with stenting elephant trunk implantation) and limited aortic repair. In the entire cohort, male 295 cases, female 110 cases. All measures in this study were expressed as ± s or median(quartiles) and analyzed by Student t test for variables or non- parametric tests; count data were expressed as frequencies and percentages and analyzed by χ2 test and Fisher exact probability test. Independent risk factors were analyzed by logistic multivariate regression. Results:Females were older than males[(53.3 ± 12.4)years old vs. (47.1 ± 11.0)years old, P<0.001] and had significantly higher proportion of diabetes(9.1% vs. 4.1%, P=0.047) and previous cerebrovascular disease (11.8% vs. 5.8%, P=0.038). Females had a lower proportion of total aortic arch replacement combined with elephant trunk implantation (64.5% vs. 82.7%, P<0.001), while aortic cross-clamp time[168.0(144.8, 201.5) minutes vs. 190.0 (163.0, 217.0) minutes, P<0.001] and CPB time[99.0 (79.8, 118.0) min vs. 107.0 (91.0, 126.0) min, P=0.006] were significantly shorter than males. Females had significantly higher rates of pulmonary infection (14.5% vs. 5.8%, P=0.004) and stroke than males (15.5% vs. 8.1%, P=0.030). The difference in the proportion of postoperative deaths between female and male TAAD patients was not statistically significant (3.6% vs. 7.8%). Logistics multivariable regression analysis found that female was an independent risk factor for postoperative stroke ( OR=2.574, 95% CI: 1.198-5.531, P=0.015) and pulmonary infection ( OR=2.610, 95% CI: 1.180-5.772, P=0.018). Conclusion:Gender did not affect mortality after TAAD repair significantly, but females increased the risk of stroke and pulmonary infection after TAAD surgery.

ABSTRACT

@#Objective    To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of proximal aortic repair (PAR) versus total arch replacement (TAR) for treatment of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). Methods     An electronic search was conducted for clinical controlled studies on PAR versus TAR for patients with ATAAD published in Medline via PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Wanfang Database and CNKI since their inception up to April 30, 2022. The quality of each study included was assessed by 2 evaluators and the necessary data were extracted. STATA 16 software was used to perform statistical analysis of the available data. Results    A total of 28 cohort studies involving 7 923 patients with ATAAD were included in this meta-analysis, of whom 5 710 patients received PAR and 2 213 patients underwent TAR, and 96.43% of the studies (27/28) were rated as high quality. The meta-analysis results showed that: (1) patients who underwent PAR had lower incidences of 30 d mortality [RR=0.62, 95%CI (0.50, 0.77), P<0.001], in-hospital mortality [RR=0.64, 95%CI (0.54, 0.77), P<0.001], and neurologic deficiency after surgery [RR=0.84, 95%CI (0.72, 0.98), P=0.032] than those who received TAR; (2) the cardiopulmonary bypass time [WMD=–52.07, 95%CI (–74.19, –29.94), P<0.001], circulatory arrest time [WMD=–10.14, 95%CI (–15.02, –5.26), P<0.001], and operation time [WMD=–101.68, 95%CI (–178.63, –24.73), P<0.001] were significantly shorter in PAR than those in TAR; (3) there was no statistical difference in mortality after discharge, rate of over 5-year survival, renal failure after surgery and re-intervention, volume of red blood cells transfusion and fresh-frozen plasma transfusion, or hospital stay between two surgical procedures. Conclusion     Compared with TAR, PAR has a shorter operation time and lower early and in-hospital mortality, but there is no difference in long-term outcomes or complications between the two procedures for patients with ATAAD.

ABSTRACT

@#Objective    To explore the differential expression of Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) in type A aortic dissection at diverse ages. Methods    The expression of SIRT1 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in aortic tissue of the patients with type A aortic dissection (an aortic dissection group) and coronary heart disease (a control group) from 2019 to 2020 in the First Hospital of China Medical University was analyzed. In each group, the patients were divided into 3 subgroups according to the age (a younger subgroup, <45 years; a middle age subgroup, 45-60 years; an elderly subgroup, > Compared with the control group, SIRT1 protein expression decreased significantly in the aortic dissection group (the younger group: 0.64±0.18 vs. 1.18±0.47; the middle age group: 0.43±0.26 vs. 0.69±0.32; the elderly group: 0.31±0.24 vs. 0.45±0.29, P<0.01). The Western blotting results showed that the expression of SIRT1 protein in the aortic dissection group decreased with age (P<0.01). The MCP-1 protein expression of younger and middle age patients in the aortic dissection group was increased compared with that in the control group (the younger group: 0.65±0.27 vs. 0.38±0.22; the middle age group: 1.08±0.30 vs. 0.46±0.36, P<0.001). MCP-1 expression increased with age (P<0.01). The result of immunohistochemical staining for SIRT1 protein was similar to that of Western blotting. Conclusion    The expression of SIRT1 decreases in patients with aortic dissection disease, and declines with age. SIRT1 may play an important role in the treatment and screening of type A aortic dissection.60 years). The quantitative real-time PCR, Western blotting and immunochemical stainning were used to detect the mRNA or protein expression of SIRT1 and MCP-1. Results    A total of 60 patients were included in each group, including 79 males and 41 females. There were 20 patients in the yonger, middle age and elderly subgroups for the two groups, respectively. Compared with the control group, the expression of SIRT1 mRNA decreased in the aortic dissection group (the younger subgroup: 4.54±1.52 vs. 8.78±2.57; the middle age group: 2.70±1.50 vs. 5.74±1.07; the elderly group: 1.41±1.33 vs. 3.09±1.14, P<0.001). Meanwhile, SIRT1 mRNA in the aortic dissection group declined with age (P<0.01).

ABSTRACT

@#Objective     To analyze the etiologies, surgical treatment and outcomes of retrograde type A aortic dissection (RTAD) after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for Stanford type B aortic dissection. Methods     The clinical data of patients with RTAD after TEVAR for Stanford type B aortic dissection receiving operations in Changhai Hospital from March 2014 to August 2018 were analyzed. All patients were followed-up by clinic interview or telephone. Results     A total of 16 patients were enrolled, including 13 males and 3 females with a mean age of 49.1±12.2 years. The main symptoms of RTAD were chest pain in 12 patients, headache in 1 patient, conscious disturbance in 1 patient, and asymptomatic in 2 patients. All the 16 patients received total arch replacement with the frozen elephant trunk technique. Bentall procedure was used in 2 patients, aortic root plasticity in 10 patients and aortic valve replacement in 1 patient. The primary tear in 10 patients was located in the area which were anchored by bare mental stent, and in the other 6 patients it was located in the anterior part of ascending aorta. The mean cardiopulmonary bypass time was 152.2±29.4 min, aortic cross-clamping time was 93.6±27.8 min and selective cerebral perfusion time was 29.8±8.3 min. There was no death in hospital or within postoperative 30 days. The follow-up period was 32-85 (57.4±18.3) months. No death occurred during the follow-up period. One patient underwent TEVAR again 3 years after this operation and had an uneventful survival. Conclusion     Total arch replacement with the frozen elephant trunk technique is a suitable strategy for the management of RTAD after TEVAR for Stanford type B aortic dissection.

ABSTRACT

@#Objective     To systematically evaluate the risk factors for hypoxemia after Stanford type A aortic dissection (TAAD) surgery. Methods     Electronic databases including PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP and CBM were searched by computer to collect studies about risk factors for hypoxemia after TAAD published from inception to November 2021. Two authors independently assessed the studies' quality, and a meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.3 software. Results    A total of 19 case-control studies involving 2 686 patients and among them 1 085 patients suffered hypoxemia, included 21 predictive risk factors. The score of Newcastle-Ottawa scale≥7 points in 16 studies. Meta-analysis showed that: age (OR=1.10, 95%CI 1.06 to 1.14, P<0.000 01), body mass index (OR=1.87, 95%CI 1.49 to 2.34, P<0.000 01), preoperative partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood/fractional concentration of inspiratory oxygen (PaO2/FiO2)≤300 mm Hg (OR=7.13, 95%CI 3.48 to 14.61, P<0.000 01), preoperative white blood cell count (OR=1.34, 95%CI 1.18 to 1.53, P<0.000 1), deep hypothermic circulatory arrest time (OR=1.33, 95%CI 1.14 to 1.57, P=0.000 4), perioperative blood transfusion (OR=1.89, 95%CI 1.49 to 2.41, P<0.000 01), cardiopulmonary bypass time (OR=1.02, 95%CI 1.00 to 1.03, P=0.02) were independent risk factors for hypoxemia after TAAD surgery. Preoperative serum creatinine, preoperative myoglobin, preoperative alanine aminotransferase were not associated with postoperative hypoxemia. Conclusion     Current evidence shows that age, body mass index, preoperative PaO2/FiO2≤300 mm Hg, preoperative white blood cell count, deep hypothermic circulatory arrest time, perioperative blood transfusion, cardiopulmonary bypass time are risk factors for hypoxemia after TAAD surgery. These factors can be used to identify high-risk patients, and provide guidance for medical staff to develop perioperative preventive strategy to reduce the incidence of hypoxemia. The results should be validated by higher quality researches.

ABSTRACT

Spinal cord ischemia (SCI), a complication of acute aortic dissection, has no established treatment. Here, we report the successful management of three cases of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) with SCI using a multidisciplinary approach. Case 1: A 55-year-old man presented with paraparesis due to ATAAD (non-communicating type), cardiac tamponade, and no loss of consciousness. He underwent emergency surgery for ascending aortic replacement. He awoke 3 h after the surgery; however, as his paralysis was not improved, we initiated multidisciplinary treatment with cerebrospinal drainage, continuous infusion of naloxone, and steroid pulse therapy. These treatments led to the complete resolution of his symptom; he was discharged on Day 32, with no neurological deficits. Case 2: A 50-year-old woman presented with complete paralysis of the left lower limb due to ATAAD (communicating type) but no loss of consciousness. She underwent emergency surgery for ascending aortic replacement. She awoke 2 h after the surgery; however, as her paralysis was not improved, multidisciplinary treatment with cerebrospinal drainage, continuous infusion of naloxone, and steroid pulse therapy were initiated, which led to partial resolution of the symptoms. She could walk with orthotics and was discharged on Day 57. Case 3: A 43-year-old man presented with paraparesis of the left lower limb due to ATAAD (non-communicating type). He was hemodynamically stable, with no loss of consciousness. The ATAAD was conservatively managed, and multidisciplinary treatment with cerebrospinal drainage, continuous infusion of naloxone, and steroid pulse therapy was administered. These therapies led to the complete resolution of his symptoms; he was discharged on Day 46, with no neurological deficits. Hence, for ATAAD with SCI, multidisciplinary treatment, including emergency surgery, is an important therapeutic strategy.

ABSTRACT

A 65-year-old woman who had been diagnosed with a thoracic aneurysm was admitted to our hospital because of loss of consciousness. Brain CT revealed that the left corticomedullary junction is obscured. Contrast-enhanced CT demonstrated an acute type A aortic dissection with right internal carotid artery occlusion, left internal carotid artery stenosis, and severe pectus excavatum. Although the consciousness level at the time of admission was JCS200, it gradually improved and she regained spontaneous movement of the right side of her body. Repair of the acute type A dissection was indicated because her neurological deficit had improved. The surgery was performed via an L-shaped approach consisting of a median sternotomy and a left 5th intercostal thoracotomy with moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest and selective cerebral perfusion. An entry was found in the aortic arch between the origins of the brachiocephalic artery and the left common carotid artery, and a partial arch replacement was performed using a four-branched artificial graft. Although the right hemiparesis remained, she recovered well and was transferred to a rehabilitation hospital at 45 days postoperatively. The L-incision approach obtained a good surgical field in a patient with a type A dissection and severe pectus excavatum.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To explore the predictive value of preoperative liver function for massive blood transfusion (MBT) in patients undergoing ascending aorta surgery. 【Methods】 Data from 238 patients undergoing ascending aorta surgery in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery at The Affiliated Lihuili Hospital of Ningbo University were collected. Preoperative liver function tests were performed for all patients. Based on the perioperative transfusion volumes of red blood cell suspension, patients were divided into the MBT group, non-MBT group, and no blood transfusion (NBT) group. Clinical data during the perioperative period were compared among different groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) analysis was used to assess the predictive value of liver function indicators for MBT and determine cut-off values. 【Results】 Compared with the non-MBT group and NBT group, the MBT group showed statistically significant differences in preoperative levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), direct bilirubin (DBIL), and serum albumin (SA) (P28.50 U/L, ALT >40.00 U/L, SA ≤34.55 g/L, and DBIL >4.25 μmol/L, there was a significant increase in the transfusion volume of various blood components and the incidence of MBT. 【Conclusion】 Preoperative liver function indicators (AST, ALT, SA, DBIL) have a moderate predictive value for MBT in patients undergoing ascending aorta surgery.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To investigate the factors affecting the length of hospitalization after the Sun's procedure in patients with type A aortic coarctation. 【Methods】 From January 2018 to June 2023, the clinical data, related laboratory indicators and perioperative blood transfusion data of patients with type A aortic dissection who underwent Sun's procedure in the First Hospital of Lanzhou University were collected. LASSO regression was used to screen the characteristics related to the length of hospital stay, and linear regression analysis was used to determine the risk factors for prolonged length of hospital stay. 【Results】 The statistical analysis of 242 patients showed that the amount of red blood cell transfusion, plasma transfusion, platelet transfusion and autologous blood transfusion were the influencing factors of the length of hospital stay in patients with type A aortic dissection after operation. The total sum of squared deviations of the linear regression equation fitting the total length of hospital stay was statistically significant (F= 10.504, P<0.001). 【Conclusion】 Perioperative red blood cell transfusion,plasma transfusion,platelet transfusion and autologous blood transfusion are risk factors for prolonged postoperative hospitalization in patients undergoing the Sun's procedure for type A aortic coarctation. Control of operation time and reduction of intraoperative blood loss may help to prevent prolonged postoperative hospital stay and other adverse conditions.
