Abstract

Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for the management of type B aortic dissections has become more commonplace despite some controversy. Results of endovascular management of complicated acute (<2 weeks from symptom onset) and chronic (>2 weeks) type B aortic dissection with a view towards determining safety, efficacy, and requirement for secondary procedures are reviewed. Between June 2005 and November 2008, 55 patients (41 men) with a mean age of 59 +/- 12 years (range, 31 to 77 years) underwent TEVAR for the management of complicated acute (n = 22) or chronic (n = 33) type B dissection. Indications in acute dissection included impending or frank rupture in 11 and malperfusion syndromes in 11; the indication in chronic dissections was aneurysmal degeneration in 33. Primary technical success was 100%. In-hospital and 30-day rates of death, stroke, and permanent paraplegia/paresis were 2% (n = 1), 0%, and 2% (n = 1), respectively. Median follow-up was 7.1 months (range, 1 to 38 months). Overall actuarial midterm survival was 63% at 38 months, with an aorta-specific actuarial survival of 94%. Two patients (4%) required late conversion to open repair. Postoperative type I or III endoleak occurred in 3 (6%) and type II en...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.
