Improving results of open arch replacement

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery

Abstract

The rapid evolution of endovascular approaches to arch reconstruction such as brachiocephalic debranching and endovascular stent grafting renders an accurate understanding of contemporary outcomes of conventional open arch surgery particularly relevant. Cases of arch reconstruction were identified by search of the computerized cardiovascular surgical database. Perioperative (30-day) outcomes as per The Society of Thoracic Surgeons database were evaluated. Between January 1, 1993, and June 30, 2007, 347 patients (195 male, 152 female; median age, 69 years; range, 21 to 88 years) underwent aortic arch replacement. Procedures were elective in 232 cases. Total arch replacement was performed in 95, including 15 with concomitant replacement of the descending thoracic aorta by means of bilateral thoracosternotomy. Modalities adjunctive to profound hypothermia and circulatory arrest for cerebral protection have been introduced, including retrograde cerebral perfusion and, more recently, selective antegrade cerebral perfusion. The overall mortality rate was 8.9% (elective procedures, 6.0%) and stroke rate was 8.4% (elective procedures, 6.9%). The mortality rate for total arch replacement has declined with adjuncts overall from 34.6% (9 ...Continue Reading

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Acute Stroke

A stroke occurs when blood supply to the brain is interrupted depriving the brain of oxygen and nutrients. This feed focuses cerebrovascular accidents including ischemic and paralytic stroke.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.
