چکیده

A case of isolated acute DeBakey II redissection which occurred in a postoperative survivor who underwent an arch replacement for acute DeBakey IIIb dissection is reported. The operative findings revealed that there was an intimal tear above the left coronary cusp, that there was a false lumen in the native ascending aorta, and that a residual false lumen caused by the initial operation had not been detected. Redissection caused mainly by the operative procedure, such as the failure to include the site of the intimal tear in the original repair and the formation of a new dissection as a result of anastomotic failure, is frequently seen. However, isolated redissection is a rare condition. In this paper we discuss classification, diagnosis and treatment of redissection.

Total Arch Replacement with Stented Elephant Trunk in DeBakey Type I Acute Aortic Dissection

A 67-year-old female patient was treated with conventional total arch replacement and insertion of a stented elephant trunk (SET) graft into the descending thoracic aorta for acute DeBakey type I aortic dissection at one time. She had been treated with right coronary artery stent insertion for acute myocardial infarct 4 days earlier, and at that time, she was diagnosed with acute DeBakey type I...

Distal aortic reintervention after surgery for acute DeBakey type I or II aortic dissection: open versus endovascular repair.

OBJECTIVES Aortic dissection DeBakey type I and II may require distal reinterventions after initial proximal repair. We evaluated outcomes following open versus endovascular approaches to distal aortic pathologies after surgery for acute dissection. METHODS One hundred and forty-one consecutive patients underwent 152 distal reinterventions after previous type I or II dissection repair [63 (fi...

Total arch repair versus hemiarch repair in the management of acute DeBakey type I aortic dissection.

OBJECTIVE In acute DeBakey type I aortic dissection, it is still controversial whether to perform extended aortic replacement to improve long-term outcome or to use a conservative strategy with ascending aortic and hemiarch replacement to palliate a life-threatening condition. METHODS Between 1999 and 2009, 188 consecutive patients (93 women; mean age, 57.4±11.7 years) with acute DeBakey type...

Influence of operative strategy for the aortic arch in DeBakey type I aortic dissection - analysis of the German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection type A (GERAADA).

OBJECTIVE Patients treated with an extensive approach including total aortic arch replacement for acute aortic dissection type A may have a favorable long-term prognosis by treating the residual false lumen. Our goal was to analyze the operative strategy for treatment of type I DeBakey aortic dissection from the German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection Type A (GERAADA) data. METHODS A tota...

Long-Term Changes in the Distal Aorta after Aortic Arch Replacement in Acute DeBakey Type I Aortic Dissection

BACKGROUND We analyzed the long-term results of ascending aortic replacement and arch aortic replacement in acute DeBakey type I aortic dissections to measure the differences in the distal aortic changes with extension of the aortic replacement. METHODS We reviewed 142 cases of acute DeBakey type I aortic dissections (1996-2015). Seventy percent of the cases were ascending aortic replacements...
