ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the clinical efifcacy of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for treating the patients with complicated thoracic aortic dissection and to report the relevant clinical experiences.Methods:
We retrospectively analyzed the records of 56 patients with complicated thoracic aortic dissection who received the operation of TEVAR in our hospital from 2011-02 to 2015-10 in order to analyze their operation methods with reasons.Results:
There were 21 patients with complex anatomic conditions for aortic arch, 7 of them received TEVAR and 14 received TEVAR with covered left subclavian artery; 16 patients with complex shape of aortic dissection, 5 of them received TEVAR and 11 received TEVAR with covered left subclavian artery; 19 patients with aortic dissection involving aortic arch, 17 of them received hybrid procedures of aortic arch branch bypass surgery + TEVAR and 2 received TEVAR with fenestrated stent grafts. All operations were successful and no severe complications occurred.Conclusion:
TEVAR is a fast and effective method for treating complicated thoracic aortic dissection, which may expand the application ranges as covering left subclavian artery, branch vessel bypass and modiifed stent grafting.
