Iatrogenic acute aortic dissection type A: insight from the German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection Type A (GERAADA)†
2013
OBJECTIVES: Previous investigators have reported a grave prognosis for iatrogenic acute aortic dissection (iAADA), but such studies are limited by their small sample sizes. The purpose of the current study was to analyse the clinical characteristics, current management and surgical outcomes in a large number of iAADA patients identified through a multicentre registry. METHODS: Between July 2006 and June 2010, 50 centres participated in the German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection Type A (GERAADA). Of the 2137 patients included, 100 (5%) had iAADA. We compared the clinical features and 30-day outcomes of patients with iatrogenic and spontaneous acute aortic dissection type A (sAADA). RESU…

Objective: The number of elderly patients undergoing emergency surgery for acute aortic dissection type A (AADA) is rising. Published results report a higher risk for thesepatients comparedwith younger patients. The aim of our study wasto analyse the surgicaloutcomeof these patients and to identify those at risk. Methods: Between July 2006 and June 2009, 44 centres participating in the German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection Type A (GERAADA) reported a total of 1558 patients. As many as 381 patients were between 70 and 80 years of age (septuagenarians), while 83 patients were 80 years and older (octogenarians). We compared the clinical features and events occurring 30 days after surgery…

2013
To determine the association between age and clinical presentation, management and surgical outcomes in a large contemporary, prospective cohort of patients with acute aortic dissection type A (AADA).AADA is one of the most life-threatening cardiovascular diseases, and delayed surgery or overly conservative management can result in sudden death.The perioperative and intraoperative conditions of 2137 patients prospectively reported to the multicenter German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection Type A were analyzed.Of all patients with AADA, 640 (30%) were 70 years or older and 160 patients (7%) were younger than 40 years. The probability of aortic dissection extension to the supra-aortic ves…
Supracoronary ascending aortic replacement in patients with acute aortic dissection type A: What happens to the aortic root in the long run?
2013
ObjectiveOur objective was to determine long-term outcome predictors for patients with acute aortic dissection type A (AADA) and aortic root involvement.MethodsFrom 2001 through 2009, 119 of 152 patients operated on for AADA at a tertiary medical center underwent supracoronary ascending aortic replacement (52 women; mean age, 61 ± 15 years). Those with at least 1-year follow-up (n = 97) were retrospectively assessed for preoperative aortic root disease. Follow-up data were assessed for evidence of new-onset aortic root disease by computed tomography and echocardiography, and for reoperation for aortic root disease.ResultsMedian follow-up was 33.8 months (range, 0-112 months). Twenty-six (27…
Management of Patients With Aortic Dissection
2008
Cardiovascular diseases have become the leading cause of death in countries with high medical standards. Acute aortic syndromes—particularly acute aortic dissection—are playing an increasingly important part in this development (1). Acute aortic dissection has an extremely high mortality rate after the occurrence of an initial manifestation, so a standardized treatment algorithm is crucial for patient survival. On the basis of selected recent publications, the aim of this study was to review the current status of the management of aortic dissection and formulate recommendations for treatment.
Prediction of mortality rate in acute type A dissection: the German Registry for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection score.
2020
Abstract OBJECTIVES The goal was to develop a scoring system to predict the 30-day mortality rate for patients undergoing surgery for acute type A aortic dissection on the basis of the German Registry for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection (GERAADA) data set and to provide a Web-based application for standard use. METHODS A total of 2537 patients enrolled in GERAADA who underwent surgery between 2006 and 2015 were analysed. Variable selection was performed using the R-package FAMoS. The robustness of the results was confirmed via the bootstrap procedure. The coefficients of the final model were used to calculate the risk score in a Web-based application. RESULTS Age [odds ratio (OR) 1.018, 95% …
