Abstract
This study evaluated long-term results of thoracic endovascular aortic repair for atherosclerotic aneurysms involving descending aorta. One hundred thirteen patients underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair for this indication from 1996 to 2009. Mean follow-up was 54 ± 38 months (5-144 months). In-hospital mortality, neurologic injury, need for rerouting, occurrence of endoleaks and their treatment, and survival were recorded. In-hospital mortality was 5.3%. Transient neurologic injury rate was 2.6%. Previous rerouting was performed in 51%. Assisted early and late type I and III endoleak rates were 7.9% and 5.7%, respectively. Five percent of patients required late surgical conversion. Actuarial survivals were 86%, 60%, and 42% at 1, 5, and 10 years, respectively. Aorta-related actuarial survivals were 94%, 90%, and 83% at 1, 5, and 10 years, respectively. Cox regression analysis revealed higher number of prostheses as independent risk factor for early (hazard ratio, 5.38; 95% confidence interval, 1.68-42.37) and late (hazard ratio, 8.49; 95% confidence interval, 1.09-66.06) endoleak formation. Female sex (hazard ratio, 0.35; 95% confidence interval, 0.13-0.99), no arch involvement (hazard ratio, 0.21; 95% confidence inter...Continue Reading
