RESUMEN
Se realizó un estudio descriptivo de 40 pacientes operados por aneurismas de la aorta ascendente en el Cardiocentro de Santiago de Cuba desde enero de 1985 hasta diciembre del 2005. La disección aórtica resultó ser la causa más común, en tanto la técnica de Bentall-De Bono y la interposición de prótesis vasculares fueron las intervenciones más efectuadas. En todos los casos se ejecutó hipotermia y en 30 por ciento se requirió de parada circulatoria. Asimismo, en 80 por ciento de los pacientes se presentaron complicaciones peroperatorias, que provocaron la muerte de 5 de ellos (12,5 ), mientras que otros 10 (28,5 ) fallecieron durante el período posoperatorio, para una mortalidad operatoria global de 37,5. El síndrome de bajo gasto cardíaco y las arritmias fueron las complicaciones más halladas. Se concluyó que las operaciones realizadas fueron complejas y el índice de complicaciones se consideró elevado, de forma que generaron una mortalidad particularmente alta, con estadías hospitalarias prolongadas.
ABSTRACT
A descriptive study of 40 patients with aneurysms of the ascending aorta was carried out in the Cardiocentre at Santiago de Cuba from January, 1985 to December, 2005. The aortic dissection was the most common cause, while the technique of Bentall-De Bono and placing of the vascular prostheses were the most used interventions. In all the cases hypothermia was applied and in 30 circulatory arrest was required. Also, there were peroperative complications in 80 of patients, which caused death in 5 of them (12,5), while others 10 (28,5) died during the postoperative period, for an overall surgical mortality of 37,5. The syndrome of low cardiac output and the arrhythmias were the most found complications. It was concluded that the performed surgeries were complex and the rate of complications was considered high, so that they provoked a particularly high mortality, with prolonged hospital stays.
