- W3039046390 abstract "Surgical techniques and organ protection strategies for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) have evolved considerably over the years. Nonetheless, open surgical repair remains a complex procedure, and there is a lack of consensus regarding many aspects of repair. In patients with dissection limited to the ascending aorta (DeBakey type II), repair typically involves replacement of only the affected segment, barring substantial aortic dilation to address elsewhere. In contrast, most patients with ATAAD have dissection extending into the thoracoabdominal aorta (DeBakey type I); in these cases, consideration must be given as to how much of the aortic arch and distal aorta to incorporate into the index repair, and several open and hybrid options exist. Herein, we review contemporary surgical strategies for ATAAD and clarify specific areas of controversy, in an effort to elucidate the optimal operative approach. In general, a limited index repair aimed at ensuring operative survival is typically the best option, whereas extended repair should be reserved for carefully selected patients who are most likely to benefit.

Central MessageSurgical strategies for acute type A aortic dissection vary among experienced centers. Limited index repair (ie, hemiarch) aimed at ensuring operative survival is the gold standard in most cases. Surgical strategies for acute type A aortic dissection vary among experienced centers. Limited index repair (ie, hemiarch) aimed at ensuring operative survival is the gold standard in most cases. Acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD; Fig. 1) is a life-threatening surgical emergency that demands clear thinking along with an expeditious, adroit operative strategy in order to avoid catastrophe. Although the management of ATAAD has evolved considerably over the years, open surgical repair remains a complex operation associated with significant risk—most notably, an operative mortality between 12% and 20%.1Pape L.A.

Herein, we review contemporary surgical strategies for ATAAD and clarify specific areas of controversy, in an effort to elucidate the optimal operative approach. The overarching goal of surgery in ATAAD is to prevent immediate death from aortic rupture or from sequelae of the dissection process (eg, cardiac tamponade, acute aortic valve regurgitation, or organ failure secondary to malperfusion syndrome [MPS]; Fig. 2). The “gold standard” approach to repairing the proximal aorta in ATAAD was pioneered by E. Stanley Crawford and colleagues at Baylor College of Medicine. In their landmark series,6Crawford E.S. Kirklin J.W. Naftel D.C. et al.Surgery for acute dissection of ascending aorta. Should the arch be included?.J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg. 1992; 104: 46-59Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Google Scholar the authors advocated for immediate aortic repair through a median sternotomy, with resection of the primary entry tear, replacement of the ascending aorta with a Dacron vascular graft, and repair or replacement of the aortic root and valve as needed. In this series, approximately one third of patients also underwent replacement of the aortic arch; early mortality was 50% greater in these patients than in those without arch replacement. Thus, a philosophy was developed to limit the extent of repair, whenever possible, to enhance the likelihood of operative survival. In contemporary practice, repair of ATAAD involves the use of sophisticated adjunct techniques to increase tolerance to ischemia of the myocardium, brain, spinal cord, and visceral organs during surgery. These techniques provide protection by decreasing metabolic demand (hypothermia) or increasing metabolic supply (selective organ perfusion). The arterial cannulation site for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), the preferred temperature for hypothermic circulatory arrest, and cerebral perfusion techniques vary considerably across centers and geographically.2Conzelmann L.O.

The femoral artery is easily accessible and can generally achieve adequate true lumen flow. Nonetheless, the safety of femoral artery cannulation has been questioned due to the potential risk for retrograde embolization of atherosclerotic plaques to the brachiocephalic branches as well as the risk for malperfusion related to flow reversal in the distal aorta.7Moeller E.

To better access these relatively small-caliber vessels, a small-diameter (8 mm or 10 mm) graft can be anastomosed end-to-side to the artery to facilitate cannulation. The axillary artery may not be the optimal cannulation site in hemodynamically unstable patients or those with large body habitus, given the added time required to expose it; conversely, the innominate artery is readily accessible within the sternotomy field and is thus a safe and effective alternative to the axillary artery.10Preventza O.

Hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) is used during repair of ATAAD to facilitate open distal anastomosis during proximal aortic replacement. The use of HCA allows direct inspection of the aortic arch to assess the extent of the dissection process and permits more complete tissue resection at the distal anastomosis site. In contemporary practice, HCA is performed at various temperatures, from as low as 14.0°C to as high as 34.0°C.14Tian D.H. Wan B.

Tranquilli M. et al.Straight deep hypothermic circulatory arrest for cerebral protection during aortic arch surgery: Safe and effective.J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg. 2014; 148 (discussion 898-900): 888-898https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtcvs.2014.05.027Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (69) Google Scholar Nevertheless, deep HCA alone provides only limited periods of brain safety (approximately 30 minutes) and is associated with intrinsic deleterious effects (eg, coagulopathy). In time, techniques were developed to supplement HCA during aortic arch repair by delivering cold, oxygenated blood to the brain via retrograde or antegrade cerebral perfusion (or both). Retrograde cerebral perfusion (RCP) through the snared superior vena cava gained prominence in aortic arch repair in the 1990s. When combined with direct aortic cannulation, RCP has the advantages of providing a less cluttered operative field, enabling the clearance of air and embolic debris from the brachiocephalic branches, and avoiding the clamping and snaring of branch arteries that may be dissected.12Shimura S.

First, direct comparison of outcomes between the two strategies was limited by heterogeneity between cohorts with respect to systemic cannulation site, the temperature of HCA, and the proportion of ATAAD cases. Second, the overall period of HCA was often relatively short, such that a detectable difference in neurological insult may not have emerged yet. At our institution, we favor a strategy of moderate HCA (24°C) with bilateral ACP (10‒15 mL/kg/min; whenever feasible, cannulating either the innominate or right axillary artery along with the left common carotid artery) to provide extended cerebral protection during repair of ATAAD (Fig. 3). In cases with extensive dissection of the brachiocephalic branches, we may be limited to unilateral ACP. We also use near-infrared spectroscopy to dynamically assess regional cerebral oxygen saturation and to dynamically adjust flow. In patients with ATAAD, the true lumen is often compressed by the false lumen (Fig. 1). MPS is defined by clinical evidence of end-organ dysfunction secondary to branch vessel occlusion (Fig. 2) and includes myocardial ischemia (coronary arteries), syncope or stroke (brachiocephalic branches), mesenteric ischemia (celiac trunk or mesenteric arteries), renal failure (renal arteries), and acute limb ischemia (brachial or iliofemoral arteries). Up to 30% of patients with ATAAD present with MPS, and these patients require more procedures and have greater morbidity and mortality than those without MPS.27Geirsson A. Szeto W.Y.

The major limitation of all strategies that defer immediate central aortic repair is the risk for death from aortic rupture or progressive organ failure in the interval between presentation and definitive aortic repair. For this reason, delayed aortic repair should be considered only in patients with overwhelming end-organ dysfunction secondary to MPS and relatively stable hemodynamic and aortic dimensional parameters. ATAAD most commonly stems from a primary tear that originates in the ascending aorta and involves the noncoronary sinus. In some cases, the dissection process may involve the right or left coronary sinuses or extend to the aortic annulus, such that a decision must be made as to whether the aortic root and valve should be repaired or else replaced with either a prosthetic composite valve-graft conduit or a stentless porcine bioroot, or by using a valve-sparing aortic root replacement (VSARR) technique. Selection of the appropriate method should be guided by direct inspection plus adjunctive transesophageal echocardiography to assess the morphology of the aortic root and competency of the aortic valve. Repairs are typically made during rewarming after HCA. In most cases, the aortic root can be repaired by resuspending the aortic valve commissural posts and optionally reinforcing the aortic wall through full-thickness suture fixation and insertion of a custom-sized Teflon felt neomedia “tongue” within the noncoronary sinus (Fig. 4). The primary advantage of repairing the aortic root lies in its simplicity: The procedure involves minimal tissue disruption and preserves the native aortic valve, obviating the need for long-term anticoagulation.
