  • Surgical Treatment of De Bakey Aortic Dissection

    Abstract: Objective To explore the surgical procedures and cerebral protection and improve surgical results by summarizing the experiences of surgical treatment of 68 patients of De Bakey Ⅰ aortic dissection. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 68 patients (including 45 males and 23 females aged 29 to 72 years with an age of 44.5±17.2 years) with De Bakey Ⅰ aortic dissection who were treated in the General Hospital of Shenyang Command between May 2004 and April 2010. Acute aortic dissection (occurring within 2 weeks) was present in 57 patients and chronic aortic dissection in 11. The intimal tear was located in the ascending aorta in 45 patients, in the aortic arch in 12 and in the descending part of the aortic arch in 11. Thirtyfive patients underwent emergency operation and 33 underwent selected or limited operation. The operations were performed under hypothermic circulation arrest plus selective antegrade cerebral perfusion or right vena cave retrograde cerebral perfusion to protect the brain. Total arch replacement and stented elephant trunk were performed in 25 patients, Bentall operation with concomitant total arch replacement and stented elephant trunk in 16 patients, pure right semi aortic arch replacement and stented elephant trunk in 15 patients, total aortic arch replacement in 7 patients, right semi aortic arch replacement and stented elephant trunk in 3 patients, and Cabrol operation with concomitant aortic conduit with valve and total arch replacement and stented elephant trunk in 2 patients. Results Five patients (4 with acute aortic dissection and 1 with chronic aortic dissection) died with an operative mortality of 7.4%(5/68). The causes of death were anastomotic bleeding during surgery in 1 patient, postoperative low cardiac output syndrome and malignant arrhythmia in 2, acute renal failure in 1 and cerebral complications in 1. During perioperative period, psychotic symptoms occurred in 5 patients, pericardial effusion in 2 patients, hoarseness in 6 patients and poor wound healing in 1 patient. All of them were cured before dehospitalization. Sixty patients (95.2%, 60/63) were followed up for 2 months to 6 years with the other 3 patients lost. During the ollow-up, sudden death occurred to 1 patient with unknown reasons, and 1 patient had pericardial effusion and symptoms improved with relevant treatment. All the other patients followed up had a good quality of life with significant improvement of heart function. Fiftyfour patients had a heart function of New York Heart Association class Ⅰ and 5 had a function of class Ⅱ. Conclusion The surgical treatment for De Bakey Ⅰ aortic dissection should be active. The beneficial results can be obtained with best choice of operative procedures, methods of cerebral protection, and adequate treatment of complications of operation.

  • Surgical Treatment of Ascending Aortic Root Aneurysms

    Abstract:Objective To summarize the experiences in surgical treatment of ascending aortic root aneurysms. Methods One hundred and one patients (age ranging from 14 to 72 years, mean 42.7 years) with ascending aortic root aneurysms were diagnosed as having Marfan syndrome (58 cases), annuloaortic ectasia (34 cases), bicuspid aortic valve (5 cases), aorto arteritis (4 cases) combined with aortic valve incompetence (96 cases) and aortic valve stenosis (4 cases) , preoperatively with type A dissection (26 cases) and acute left heart failure (5 cases). Our operations consisted of 4 Wheat procedures, 13 Cabrol or modified Cabrol procedures, 1 David and 83 Bentall procedures. Concomitant operations included hemi-arch replacement or descending aorta intraluminal stent grafting (16 cases), total arch replacement or descending aorta intraluminal stent grafting (4 cases), mitral valve replacement or anuloplasty (14 cases) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG, 8 cases). Results The overall mortality was 6.9%(7/101), and decreased to 3. 6%(3/83) after the year 2000. Main postoperative complications were low cardiac output (10 cases), respiratory insufficiency (9 cases), and renal inadequacy (9 cases). Follow-up was completed in 94 patients. During the period of follow-up, one patient died and 5 patients with Marfan syndrome suffered with type B dissection. Conclusion Bentall procedure is the method of choice for ascending aortic root aneurysms. Preoperative left heart function and surgical techniques give the crucial impact on the outcome of surgery.

  • Surgical Treatment of Ascending Aortic Aneurysm in 114 Patients

    ObjectiveTo summarize experience of surgical treatment of ascending aortic aneurysm and analyse related problems.MethodsOne hundred and fourteen (containing 62 cases had aortic dissection) consecutive cases underwent replacement of diseased ascending aorta alone (9 cases) or Bentall operation.ResultsThere were seven operative death (6.14%). The cardiac function, in six of them, was in class Ⅳ(NYHA) preoperatively. Follow up was completed in 107 patients, with a duration of 40±30 months. Eight patients succumbed due to intracranial hemorrhage (3 cases), rupture of abdominal aortic lesion (3 cases), cardiac failure after coronary artery bypass grafting (1 case), and sudden death of unknown cause (1 case),respectively. All 99 long term survivors (86.8%) were in NYHA class Ⅰor Ⅱ.ConclusionThe results indicate that Bentall operation for treating ascending aortic aneurysms and aortic insufficiency, or aortic replacement alone for treating ascending aortic aneurysm gives good functional recovery and an active life for the vast majority of survivors.

  • Minimally invasive ascending aorta surgery through a right anterior thoracotomy via the second intercostal incision: A single-center experience of 13 patients

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility, safety, and short-term effect of minimally invasive ascending aorta surgery through a right anterior thoracotomy via the second intercostal incision.MethodsThe clinical data of 13 patients who underwent minimally invasive ascending aorta surgery (including minimally invasive Bentall operation in 7 patients, minimally invasive Wheat operation in 2 patients, and minimally invasive ascending aorta replacement in 4 patients) through a right anterior thoracotomy via the second intercostal incision in our center from October, 2019 to September, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 12 males and 1 female at age of 19-69 (52.4±13.7) years.ResultsThe aortic cross-clamping time was 84.3±18.3 min. Three patients received blood transfusion, with the rate of 23.1%. The drainage volume in the first 24 hours after operation was 214.5±146.3 mL, with no redo for bleeding. The duration of mechanical ventilation was 19.0±11.3 hours and the length of intensive care unit stay was 1.8±1.3 days. The drainage tube was removed 2.5±1.0 days after operation. All the 13 patients recovered and discharged 6.4±2.0 days after operation, with no dead patients found. All patients survived with New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classⅠandⅡduring a median follow-up of 8 months.ConclusionMinimally invasive ascending aorta surgery through a right anterior thoracotomy via the second intercostal incision may be a safe and effective method with less injury and quick recovery.

  • Short-term efficacy of improved Bentall operation with "pericardium lining" for aortic root dilatation

    Objective To explore the feasibility of modified Bentall operation with pericardium lining in patients with aortic root dilatation (ARD). MethodsThis study was a retrospective study. From January 2023 to February 2024, the patients were selected for treatment in Suzhou Municipal Hospital, The Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Southwest Medical University and Guangyuan First People's Hospital. The preoperative clinical and imaging evaluation data (including echocardiography and CT of aortic root and whole aorta), the data of coronary intervention, the surgical effect and the postoperative follow-up results were collected. All patients were treated with improved Bentall operation with "pericardium lining": the aortic valve was replaced, and the autologous pericardium was divided into three parts according to the circumferential diameter of the aortic valve ring measured by the valve measuring instrument, and sutured with to the valve ring respectively; two pericardial slices "opened the window" and anastomosed anastomosis with the left and right coronary artery openings; the pericardial piece was sutured with to the aortic sinus wall to form a whole, narrowing the sinus. Artificial blood vessels were used to suture the proximal and distal aorta without aortic root-right atrial shunt. Results Five patients were collected, aged from 37 to 68 years. The average STS risk score was 3.4%. The preoperative ascending aorta diameter was (56.4±16.6) mm, the preoperative left ventricular end diastolic diameter was (62.0±9.0) mm, and the preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction was (56.0±8.0%. The time of aortic occlusion was (129.6±50.4) min, and the time of cardiopulmonary bypass was (188.2±113.8) min. Echocardiography showed that the diameter of ascending the ascending aorta was (30.2±4.8) mm, the end diastolic diameter of left the left ventricle was (48.2±8.8) mm, and the left ventricular ejection fraction was 51.4%±9.6%. The operation was successfully completed, and the immediate effect was satisfactory. There were no complications during the operation. There was no death and reoperation no reoperation during the follow-up period. Conclusion For patients with ARD, the preliminary results of improved Bentall operation with "pericardium lining" are satisfactory and the technique is feasible.
