True-lumen collapse of the ascending aorta in acute type A aortic dissection

Long-term results of simplified frozen elephant trunk technique in complicated acute type A aortic dissection: A case-control study.
2016
Aim To describe the long-term experience of a simplified frozen elephant trunk technique (sFETT) used in complicated acute type A aortic dissection (AAAD) treatment. Methods and results Between January 2001 and December 2012, 34 patients (mean age 59.9 ± 11.0 years) with complicated AAAD (DeBakey I) underwent an emergency surgery including sFETT. sFETT consisted in gluing the dissected aortic arch wall layers with gelatine-resorcinol adhesive and video-assisted antegrade open arch aortic stent-graft deployment in the arch or proximal descending aorta. In addition to sFETT, the aortic root was addressed with standard techniques. A 30-day mortality was 14.7% (five patients) due to bleeding (1…
The Impact of Pre-Operative Malperfusion on Outcome in Acute Type A Aortic Dissection
2015
Abstract Background Malperfusion adversely affects outcomes in patients with acute type A aortic dissection, but reliable quantitative data are lacking. Objectives The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of various forms of malperfusion on early outcome. Methods A total of 2,137 consecutive patients enrolled in GERAADA (German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection Type A) who underwent surgery between 2006 and 2010, of whom 717 (33.6%) had any kind of pre-operative malperfusion, were retrospectively analyzed. Results All-cause 30-day mortality was 16.9% and varied substantially according to the number of organ systems affected by malperfusion (none, 12.6%; 1 system, 21.3%; 2 systems,…
Acute Type A Aortic Dissection after Previous Cardiac Surgery

Simultaneous endovascular treatment of synchronous symptomatic acute type B aortic dissection and large infrarenal aortic aneurysm. Technical tips an…
2020
Highlights • Acute type B aortic dissection associated with AAA, has a high rupture risk. • This complicated dissection must be considered for treatment as quickly. • This approach can be performed endovascularly when supraaortic trunks are involved. • Totally endovascular solution to address both disease is feasible.
