Advancements in cardiothoracic surgery prompted investigation into changes in operative management for acute type A aortic dissections over time.
One thousand seven hundred thirty-two patients undergoing surgery for type A aortic dissection were identified from the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection Interventional Cohort Database. Patients were divided into time tertiles (T) (T1: 1996-2003, T2: 2004-2010, and T3: 2011-2016).
Frequency of valve sparing procures increased (T1: 3.9%, T2: 18.6%, and T3: 26.7%; trend P < .001). Biologic valves were increasingly utilized (T1: 35.6%, T2; 40.6%, and T3: 52.0%; trend P = .009), whereas mechanical valve use decreased (T1: 57.6%, T2: 58.0%, and T3: 45.4%; trend P = .027) for aortic valve replacement. Adjunctive cerebral perfusion use increased (T1: 67.1%, T2: 89.5%, and T3: 84.8%; trend P < .001), with increase in antegrade cerebral techniques (T1: 55.9%, T2: 58.8%, and T3: 66.1%; trend P = .005) and hypothermic circulatory arrest (T1: 80.1%, T2: 85.9%, and T3: 86.8%; trend P = .030). Arterial perfusion through axillary cannulation increased (T1: 18.0%, T2: 33.2%, and T3: 55.7%), whereas perfusion via a femoral approach diminished (T1: 76.0%, T2: 53.3%, and T3: 30.1%) (both P values < .001). Hemiarch replacement was utilized more frequently (T1: 27.0%, T2: 63.3%, and T3: 51.7%; trend P = .001) and partial arch was utilized less frequently (T1: 20.7%, T2: 12.0%, and T3: 8.4%; trend P < .001), whereas complete arch replacement was used similarly (P = .131). In-hospital mortality significantly decreased (T1: 17.5%, T2: 15.8%, and T3: 12.2%; trend P = .017).
There have been significant changes in operative strategy over time in the management of type A aortic dissection, with more frequent use of valve-sparing procedures, bioprosthetic aortic valve substitutes, antegrade cerebral perfusion strategies, and hypothermic circulatory arrest. Most importantly, a significant decrease of in-hospital mortality was observed during the 20-year timespan.
随着心胸外科技术的进步,我们对急性 A 型主动脉夹层手术治疗策略的变化进行了研究。
从国际急性 A 型主动脉夹层干预队列登记数据库中确定了 1732 名接受 A 型主动脉夹层手术的患者。患者分为时间三分位组(T)(T1:1996-2003 年,T2:2004-2010 年,T3:2011-2016 年)。
保留瓣膜手术的比例逐渐增加(T1:3.9%,T2:18.6%,T3:26.7%;趋势 P<0.001)。生物瓣的使用逐渐增加(T1:35.6%,T2:40.6%,T3:52.0%;趋势 P=0.009),而机械瓣的使用减少(T1:57.6%,T2:58.0%,T3:45.4%;趋势 P=0.027)用于主动脉瓣置换。辅助性脑灌注的使用增加(T1:67.1%,T2:89.5%,T3:84.8%;趋势 P<0.001),顺行性脑技术的使用增加(T1:55.9%,T2:58.8%,T3:66.1%;趋势 P=0.005)和低温循环停止(T1:80.1%,T2:85.9%,T3:86.8%;趋势 P=0.030)。腋动脉插管的动脉灌注增加(T1:18.0%,T2:33.2%,T3:55.7%),而经股动脉途径的灌注减少(T1:76.0%,T2:53.3%,T3:30.1%)(均 P 值<0.001)。半弓置换术的应用更为频繁(T1:27.0%,T2:63.3%,T3:51.7%;趋势 P=0.001),部分弓置换术的应用减少(T1:20.7%,T2:12.0%,T3:8.4%;趋势 P<0.001),而全弓置换术的应用则相似(P=0.131)。住院死亡率显著降低(T1:17.5%,T2:15.8%,T3:12.2%;趋势 P=0.017)。
在 A 型主动脉夹层的管理中,手术策略在 20 年的时间内发生了重大变化,更多地采用了保留瓣膜的手术、生物瓣主动脉瓣替代品、顺行性脑灌注策略和低温循环停止。最重要的是,在这 20 年期间,住院死亡率显著下降。
