Type-A acute aortic dissection: combined operation plus stent management.
نویسندگان
چکیده
When the port of entry of acute type-A aortic dissection is at the level of the horizontal portion of the aortic arch, the latter should be replaced by a prosthesis. To avoid performing this difficult procedure in an emergency situation, we place a stent in the aortic arch. Then we replace the ascending aorta by a prosthesis.

Systematic review of outcomes of combined proximal stent-grafting with distal bare stenting for management of aortic dissection.
OBJECTIVE Available data on outcomes of combined proximal stent-grafting with distal bare stenting for management of aortic dissection are limited. The objective of this study was to provide a systematic review of outcomes of this approach. METHODS Studies involving combined proximal stent-grafting with distal bare stenting for management of aortic dissection were systematically searched and ...
متن کاملSimultaneous fenestration with stent implantation for acute limb ischemia due to type B acute aortic dissection complicated with both static and dynamic obstructions.
Stanford type B acute aortic dissection is sometimes complicated with compressed true lumen of the descending aorta (Dynamic obstruction) and stenosis of a major aortic branch (Static obstruction), which cause organ malperfusion. In such a case, medical therapy alone is usually not effective and endovascular treatments are required including stent implantation and balloon fenestration. However,...
متن کاملEmergency thoracic aortic stent grafting for acute complicated type B aortic dissection after a previous abdominal endovascular aneurysm repair
We report a case of acute type B aortic dissection with the complication of bowel ischemia and abdominal stent graft compression treated by emergency thoracic aortic stent grafting after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). A 69-year-old male was admitted to our hospital for sudden thoraco-abdominal pain. He had past treatment history of EVAR for AAA half a y...
متن کاملAcute Type A Dissection and Acute Inferior MI Complicating Aortic Coarctation: A Case Report
Aortic coarctation is a rare but dangerous condition. Presence of aortic dissection in addition to coarctation is significantly rarer and more life-threatening. Here, we present a case of acute inferior MI due to aortic dissection complicating a native aortic coarctation. A 17-year-old boy was admitted to our emergency department due to severe chest pain and loss of consciousness. His ele...
متن کامل[Outcome of endovascular stent graft placement in patients with acute thoracic aortic syndromes].
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the outcome of endovascular stent graft placement in patients with acute thoracic aortic syndromes. METHODS Emergency stent-graft implantations were performed in 57 patients with acute thoracic aortic syndromes from May 2001 to December 2005 (45 Stanford B aortic dissections, 9 acute penetrating aortic ulcers or pseudoaneurysms. 3 traumatic thoracic aneurysms). The clini...
