Abstract

We report our experience in aortic arch repair with the E-vita Open hybrid prosthesis and describe the changes in our technique over time. Between October 2013 and December 2019, 56 patients underwent a total aortic arch replacement with the E-vita Open hybrid prosthesis. The main indications were thoracic aorta aneurysm (n = 27) and acute type A aortic dissection (n = 18). We analyze the technique and results in the overall series, and compare both between our early (group I, 25 patients) and late experience (group II, 31 patients). Overall in-hospital mortality was 7.1% (n = 4), and permanent stroke and spinal cord injury were 3.6% and 1.8%, respectively. Fifteen patients (26.8%) underwent a planned second procedure on the distal aorta: 13 endovascular, 1 open, and 1 hybrid. Survival at 1 and 3 years was 90.7% and 80.7%, respectively. Group II included more patients with acute dissection (45.2% vs 16%, P = .02), higher rates of bilateral cerebral perfusion (100% vs 64%, P < .001), left subclavian artery perfusion during lower body circulatory arrest (87.1% vs 0%, P < .001), early reperfusion (96.8% vs 40%, P < .001), and zone 0 to 2 distal anastomosis (100% vs 72%, P = .02). In-hospital mortality (3.2% vs 12%) and permanent s...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.
