Background
The best management strategy for the left subclavian artery (LSA) in pathologic processes of the aorta requiring zone 2 thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) remains controversial. We compared LSA coverage with or without revascularization as well as the different means of LSA revascularization.Methods
A retrospective chart review was conducted of patients with any aortic diseases who underwent zone 2 TEVAR deployment from 2007 to 2014. Primary end points included 30-day stroke and 30-day spinal cord injury (SCI). Secondary end points were 30-day procedure-related reintervention, freedom from aorta-related reintervention, aorta-related mortality, and all-cause mortality.Results
We identified 96 patients with zone 2 TEVAR who met our inclusion criteria. The mean age of the patients was 62 years, with 61.5% male. Diseases included acute aortic dissections (n = 25), chronic aortic dissection with aneurysmal degeneration (n = 22), primary aortic aneurysms (n = 21), penetrating aortic ulcers/intramural hematomas (n = 17), and traumatic aortic injuries (n = 11). Strategies for the LSA included coverage with revascularization (n = 54) or without revascularization (n = 42). Methods of LSA revascularization included laser fenestration with stenting (n = 33) and surgical revascularization: transposition (n = 10) or bypass (n = 11). Of the 54 patients with LSA revascularization, 44 (81.5%) underwent LSA intervention at the time of TEVAR and 10 (18.5%) at a mean time of 33 days before TEVAR (range, 4-63 days). For the entire cohort, the overall incidence of 30-day stroke was 7.3%; of 30-day SCI, 2.1%; and of procedure-related reintervention, 5.2%. At a mean follow-up of 24 months (range, 1-79 months), aorta-related reintervention was 15.6%, aorta-related mortality was 12.5%, and all-cause mortality was 29.2%. The 30-day stroke rate was highest for LSA coverage without revascularization (6/42 [14.3%]) compared with any form of LSA revascularization (1/54 [1.9%]; P = .020), with no difference between LSA interventions done synchronously with TEVAR (1/44 [2.3%]) vs metachronously with TEVAR (0/10 [0%]; P = .63). There was no significant difference in 30-day SCI in LSA coverage without revascularization (2/42 [4.8%]) vs with revascularization (0/54 [0%]; P = .11). There was no difference in aorta-related reintervention, aorta-related mortality, or all-cause mortality in coverage without revascularization (5/42 [11.9%], 6/42 [14.3%], and 14/42 [33.3%]) vs with revascularization (10/54 [18.5%; P = .376], 6/54 [11.1%; P = .641], and 14/54 [25.9%; P = .43], respectively). After univariate and multivariable analysis, we identified LSA coverage without revascularization as associated with a higher rate of 30-day stroke (hazard ratio, 17.2; 95% confidence interval, 1.3-220.4; P = .029).Conclusions
Our study suggests that coverage of the LSA without revascularization increases the risk of stroke and possibly SCI. 相似文献2.

Objective
This study evaluated the association between thoracic false lumen branches (TFLBs; dissected thoracic branches fed by a false lumen) and distal thoracic aortic enlargement (DTAE) after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for DeBakey IIIb aortic dissection.Methods
We retrospectively analyzed the records of 67 patients with DeBakey IIIb dissection initially treated with TEVAR between January 2011 and December 2013. Preoperative and postoperative computed tomography angiography images were reviewed to evaluate the number of preoperative TFLBs and aortic diameter change after TEVAR. Patients were stratified into two groups by the estimated optimal cutoff value of preoperative TFLBs for the prediction of DTAE: group A (n = 28), preoperative TFLBs ≥8; group B (n = 39), preoperative TFLBs <8. The diameter changes over time were modeled by mixed models of repeated data. Multivariable Cox regression analysis was used to assess the independent association between preoperative TFLBs and DTAE after TEVAR.Results
Baseline demographics, clinical features, and devices implanted were largely similar between the two groups. Group A had more preoperative abdominal false lumen branches (7 [4-8] vs 4 [1-6]; P = .02) and a greater proportion of preoperative patent thoracic false lumen (83.9% vs 66.7%; P = .04). Twelve patients experienced DTAE during a median imaging follow-up period of 12.2 months (interquartile range, 4.3-26.6 months). Log-rank testing revealed a significant increase in cumulative estimated proportion with DTAE in group A (P < .01). The maximum thoracic aortic diameter decreased significantly in group B (P < .01) but not in group A. The overall change in the maximum thoracic aortic diameter was statistically different between the two groups (P < .01). Each group exhibited a significant increase in true lumen diameter and a significant decrease in false lumen diameter postoperatively. However, a lower degree of false lumen regression in group A was detected compared with group B (P = .03). Multivariable analysis identified that preoperative TFLBs were independently associated with DTAE after TEVAR (hazard ratio [for one increase], 1.46; 95% confidence interval, 1.20-1.77) after adjustment for gender, hyperlipidemia, length of dissected aorta and height index, preoperative abdominal false lumen branches, and preoperative false lumen status of thoracic aorta.Conclusions
Preoperative TFLBs are independently associated with DTAE after TEVAR in DeBakey IIIb aortic dissection. Long-term follow-up is necessary to further verify the preliminary finding. 相似文献3.

Purpose
Thoracic endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (TEVAR) has become a mainstay of therapy for aneurysms and other disorders of the thoracic aorta. The purpose of this narrative review article is to summarize the current literature on the risk factors for and pathophysiology of spinal cord injury (SCI) following TEVAR, and to discuss various intraoperative monitoring and treatment strategies.Source
The articles considered in this review were identified through PubMed using the following search terms: thoracic aortic aneurysm, TEVAR, paralysis+TEVAR, risk factors+TEVAR, spinal cord ischemia+TEVAR, neuromonitoring+thoracic aortic aneurysm, spinal drain, cerebrospinal fluid drainage, treatment of spinal cord ischemia.Principal findings
Spinal cord injury continues to be a challenging complication after TEVAR. Its incidence after TEVAR is not significantly reduced when compared with open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Nevertheless, compared with open procedures, delayed paralysis/paresis is the predominant presentation of SCI after TEVAR. The pathophysiology of SCI is complex and not fully understood, though the evolving concept of the importance of the spinal cord’s collateral blood supply network and its imbalance after TEVAR is emerging as a leading factor in the development of SCI. Cerebrospinal fluid drainage, optimal blood pressure management, and newer surgical techniques are important components of the most up-to-date strategies for spinal cord protection.Conclusion
Further experimental and clinical research is needed to aid in the discovery of novel neuroprotective strategies for the protection and treatment of SCI following TEVAR.4.

Objective
Distal stent graft-induced new entry (SINE) can occur after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) of type B aortic dissection. This study investigated the mechanism of distal SINE and its prevention using a restrictive bare stent (RBS) technique.Methods
From January 2013 to December 2014, 68 consecutive type B aortic dissection patients received endovascular repair at our center. The RBS technique was used with distal oversizing (between the diameter of the thoracic stent graft and the descending aorta true lumen diameter at the level of the intended distal edge of the thoracic stent graft) >20%.Results
Twenty-three patients received TEVAR with a single thoracic stent graft (TEVAR group, n = 23); the rest received TEVAR combined with the RBS technique (TEVAR + RBS group, n = 45). Four distal SINEs occurred in the TEVAR group. Distal oversizing (69.7% ± 35.5% vs 31.2% ± 24.5%; P = .005) and expansion mismatch ratio (132.2% ± 16.9% vs 106.5% ± 11.6%; P < .05) were significantly higher in the SINE patients. Compared with standard TEVAR, TEVAR + RBS was associated with significantly lower distal oversizing (TEVAR vs TEVAR + RBS group, 59.8% ± 24.7% vs 16.7% ± 7.6%; P < .05), lower expansion mismatch ratio (113.8% ± 14.6% vs 103.8% ± 11.7%; P = .012), and lower distal SINE rate (4/23 [17.4%] vs 0/45 [0%]; P = .011). Compared with the TEVAR group, the false lumen was reduced significantly at the level of the RBS distal edge (P = .029).Conclusions
Excessive distal oversizing and distal expansion mismatch ratio may contribute to the occurrence of distal SINE. The RBS technique reduced the incidence of distal SINE. Based on our midterm and long-term observations, implantation of an RBS may improve aortic remodeling. 相似文献5.

Background
The management of the left subclavian artery when coverage is necessary during thoracic aorta endografting remains a matter of debate.Materials and methods
A retrospective analysis of a single-centre experience with thoracic endovascular aorta repair (TEVAR) was performed. Between April 2004 and October 2012, 125 cases of TEVAR were performed. The analysis focused on patients who required coverage of the left subclavian artery (LSA). We analysed mortality and morbidity with special attention to the rates of cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs) and spinal cord ischaemia (SCI) in the early and midterm.Results
Of the 125 patients, 53 (42 %, group A) required an intentional coverage of the LSA to obtain an adequate proximal seal for the endograft; the remaining patients constituted group B. None of the patients in group A had protective LSA revascularisation prior to TEVAR. The primary technical success rate was 79.2 vs. 90.3 % (group A vs. group B, p?=?0.08), and the primary clinical success rate was 77.4 vs. 82 % (group A vs. group B, p?=?0.53). The 30-day mortality rate was 11.3 vs. 11.1 % (group A vs. group B, p?=?0.97). The 30-day morbidity was 7.5 vs. 13.9 % (group A vs. group B, p?=?0.4). CVA occurred in 1.9 % of group A patients, compared to 1.4 % of patients from group B (p?=?0.82). The SCI incidence rate was 0 vs. 1.4 % (p?=?0.39). The mean follow-up of group A was 24.1 months (range 2–64.6 months, SD?=?19). Additionally, the 1-year estimated survival was 85.5 %, and the 3-year estimated survival was 78 %. There were no midterm CVAs; one event of SCI occurred in the seventh post-operative month in group A.Conclusion
Our analysis, although retrospective and based on one institution experience, shows a realistic population of TEVAR patients. We prove that TEVAR with coverage of LSA origin can be accomplished with minimal neurological morbidity in this patient population. The study shows that LSA revascularisation is not mandatory before endograft deployment, especially in emergency settings. We also prove that although zone 2 TEVAR extends the proximal landing zone, it does not prevent type IA endoleaks from appearing. A multicentre randomised control trial with higher number of patients is necessary for proper, robust conclusion to be established. 相似文献6.

Purposes
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure elevation may worsen spinal cord ischaemia after spinal cord injury (SCI). We developed a rat model to investigate relationships between CSF pressure and spinal cord blood flow (SCBF).Methods
Male Wistar rats had SCI induced at Th10 (n = 7) or a sham operation (n = 10). SCBF was measured using laser-Doppler and CSF pressure via a sacral catheter. Dural integrity was assessed using subdural methylene-blue injection (n = 5) and myelography (n = 5).Results
The SCI group had significantly lower SCBF (p < 0.0001) and higher CSF pressure (p < 0.0001) values compared to the sham-operated group. Sixty minutes after SCI or sham operation, CSF pressure was 8.6 ± 0.4 mmHg in the SCI group versus 5.5 ± 0.5 mmHg in the sham-operated group. No dural tears were found after SCI.Conclusion
Our rat model allows SCBF and CSF pressure measurements after induced SCI. After SCI, CSF pressure significantly increases. 相似文献7.

Background
Open surgical repair remains the “gold standard” treatment for chronic type B aortic dissection (cTBD) with aneurysm. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has gained popularity in recent years for the treatment of thoracic aortic diseases, including cTBD. We assessed the effectiveness of TEVAR in the treatment of cTBD using the Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI) database.Methods
The VQI registry identified 4713 patients treated with TEVAR from July 2010 to November 2015, including 125 repairs for cTBD. We analyzed TEVAR outcomes in this cohort per the Society for Vascular Surgery reporting standards for TEVAR.Results
Median age was 65.0 years (interquartile range [IQR], 56.0-72.0 years), and 85 (68.0%) were male. Median aneurysm diameter was 5.5 cm (IQR, 4.8-6.3 cm). Sixty-two (49.6%) patients were asymptomatic on presentation, 57 (45.6%) were symptomatic, and 6 (4.8%) presented with rupture. Median length of stay was 8.0 days (IQR, 4.0-11.0 days). Fluoroscopy time was 17.3 minutes (IQR, 10.5-25.6 minutes). The distal landing zone was aortic zone 4 in 27 (21.6%) and aortic zone 5 and distal in 98 (78.4%) patients. Successful device delivery occurred in 123 (98.4%) patients. Conversion to open repair occurred in one (0.8%) patient. A type IA endoleak was present in 2 (1.6%), type IB endoleak in 2 (1.6%), and type II endoleak in 2 (1.6%) patients. Perioperative complications included stroke in 1 (0.8%), respiratory complications in 6 (4.8%), and spinal cord ischemia symptoms present at discharge in 3 (2.4%) patients. In-hospital mortality occurred in three (2.4%) patients. Reintervention was required in two (1.6%) patients for false lumen perfusion and in two (1.6%) patients for extension of the dissection. Follow-up was available for 43 patients at a median time of 239 days (IQR, 38-377 days). Median change in sac diameter was ?0.2 cm (IQR, ?0.5 to 0.1 cm). Sac shrinkage of 0.5 cm was noted in 12 (27.9%), with sac growth >0.5 cm in four (9.3%) patients. Extent of stent graft coverage did not affect sac shrinkage (P = .65). Patients with aneurysms ≥5.5 cm compared with <5.5 cm were more likely to demonstrate shrinkage (?0.6 cm vs 0.0 cm; 95% confidence interval, 0.3-11.7; P = .04).Conclusions
TEVAR for cTBD may be performed with acceptable rates of morbidity and mortality. Changes in sac diameter in the midterm are promising. Long-term data are needed to determine whether this approach is durable. 相似文献8.

Background
Aortic coarctation (AC) is most commonly identified in pediatric patients; however, adults can present with late sequelae of untreated coarctation or complications of prior open repair. To date, there are limited data about the role of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) in this group of patients. The purpose of this analysis was to describe our experience with management of adult coarctation patients using TEVAR.Methods
All TEVAR patients treated for primary coarctation or late sequelae of previous open repair (eg, pseudoaneurysm, recurrent coarctation or anastomotic stenosis related to index open coarctation repair) were reviewed. Demographics, comorbidities, procedure-related variables, postoperative outcomes, and reintervention were recorded. Computed tomography centerline assessments of endograft morphology were completed to delineate stent anatomy at the coarctation site. Survival and reintervention were estimated using life-table analysis.Results
A total of 21 patients were identified (median age, 46 years [range, 33-71 years]; 67% male [n = 14]). Nine patients (43%) were treated for symptomatic primary (n = 6) or recurrent (n = 3) coarctation. Other indications included degenerative thoracic aneurysm (n = 6), pseudoaneurysm (n = 4), and dissection (n = 2). Technical success was 100% (95% confidence interval [CI], 84%-100%). No 30-day mortality or paraplegia events occurred; however, two patients (10%) experienced postoperative nondisabling stroke. In primary or recurrent coarctation patients with available computed tomography imaging (n = 8 of 9), nominal stent graft diameters were achieved proximal and distal to the coarctation (range, ?0.4 to ?1.2 mm of desired final stent diameter). Specific to the coarctation site, there was a significant increase in aortic diameter after TEVAR (before stenting, 11.5 [95% CI, 6.8-12.3] mm; after stenting, 15 [95% CI, 13.7-15.7] mm; P = .004). Concurrently, systolic arterial blood pressure at time of discharge was significantly lower (before stenting: 147 mm Hg; 95% CI, 137-157 mm Hg; after stenting: 124 mm Hg; 95% CI, 118-134 mm Hg; P = .02). For all patients, median clinical follow-up time was 8 months (interquartile range, 3-13 months; range, 1-106 months). Three endoleaks were detected, all of which were type II related to left (n = 2) or aberrant (n = 1) subclavian arteries. Four patients (19%) underwent reintervention (median time, 7 months; range, 2-12 months), with three of four being subclavian artery embolization; one was an aortic root replacement for ascending aneurysm with bicuspid aortic valve. One-year freedom from reintervention was 78% ± 9% (95% CI, 42%-92%). The 1- and 3-year survival was 95% ± 5% (95% CI, 71%-99%). One late death was related to complications from pre-existing congenital heart disease.Conclusions
Adult AC patients can be treated safely with TEVAR, and the annular constriction of an AC can be successfully dilated by the stent graft. Given these findings, a greater number of patients with longer term follow-up is warranted to further define the role of TEVAR in the management of adult AC patients. 相似文献9.

Background
The high-risk patient cohort of uncomplicated type B aortic dissections (uTBADs) needs to be clarified. We compared uTBAD patients treated with best medical treatment (BMT), with and without aortic growth, from the Acute Dissection Stent Grafting or Best Medical Treatment (ADSORB) trial database. Furthermore, we looked for trends in outcome for aortic growth and remodeling after BMT and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) and BMT (TEVAR+BMT).Methods
BMT patients with available baseline and a 1-year follow-up arterial computed tomography scan were identified. True lumen and false lumen diameter was assessed at baseline and at follow-up. Patients with false lumen growth (group I) and without false lumen growth (group II) were compared. Predictors of false lumen and total lumen (aortic) growth were identified. Lastly, BMT outcomes were compared with BMT+TEVAR for false lumen thrombosis and change in false lumen and total aortic diameter in four sections: 0 to 10 cm (A), 10 to 20 cm (B), 20 to 30 cm (C), and 30 to 40 cm (D) from the left subclavian artery.Results
The dissection was significantly longer in group I than in group II (43.2 ± 4.9 cm vs 30.4 ± 8.8 cm; P = .002). The number of vessels originating from the false lumen at baseline was identified as an independent predictor of false lumen growth (odds ratio, 22.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-481.5; P = .049). Increasing age was a negative predictor of total aortic diameter growth (odds ratio, 0.902; 95% confidence interval, 0.813-1.00; P = .0502). The proximal sections A and B showed complete thrombosis in 80.6% in the BMT+TEVAR group compared with 9.5% in the BMT group. In these sections, changes from patent to partial or partial to complete thrombosis were observed in 90.3% of the TEVAR+BMT group vs 31.0% in the BMT group. In sections C and D, the change in thrombosis was 74.1% for the TEVAR+BMT group vs 20.6% for the BMT group. The false lumen diameter increase at section C was larger in the BMT group. Total lumen diameter decreased in sections A and B in the TEVAR+BMT group compared with an increase in the BMT group (–4.8 mm vs +2.9 mm, and –1.5 mm vs +3.8 mm, respectively). Sections C and D showed minimal and comparable expansion in both treatment groups.Conclusions
The new imaging analysis of the ADSORB trial patients identified the number of vessels originating from the false lumen as an independent predictor of false lumen growth in uTBAD patients. Increasing age was a negative predictor of aortic growth. Our analysis may help to identify which uTBAD patients are at higher risk and should receive TEVAR or be monitored closely during follow-up. 相似文献10.

Purpose
The aim of the current study was to evaluate the outcome after primary repair in comparison to other surgical treatments and the advantage of reinforcing the sutures with an absorbable polyglactin 910 prosthesis.Methods
All esophageal perforations surgically managed in this institution from January 1985 through April 2009 (n = 40) were retrospectively analyzed. Patients that underwent surgery with primary sutures (group A, n = 24) were compared with patients that received other surgical procedures (group B, n = 16). The time to initiate treatment (within or after the first 24 h) and if the suture was reinforced with a polyglactin 910 mesh were also analyzed in group A patients.Results
The outcome was more favorable in group A than group B in terms of time in the intensive care unit (p = 0.005), and rate of reoperation (p = 0.005). There was no difference in the outcome after the primary suture with or without mesh reinforcement, although the rate of fistulization was lower in patients with a mesh (17 vs. 50 %, p = 0.19).Conclusions
Primary repair has a better outcome than other surgical treatment, even when performed more than 24 h after symptom onset, but not later than 48 h. Reinforcing the sutures with an absorbable polyglactin 910 mesh therefore seems to improve the outcome. 相似文献11.

Background
The goal of the present study was to evaluate the impact of delayed autologous breast reconstruction on disease relapse in breast cancer patients treated with mastectomy.Material and methods
The study was based on 503 consecutive patients younger than 70 years of age who underwent mastectomy between January 2000 and December 2003. Overall, 391 (78 %) received mastectomy alone and 112 (22 %) underwent a delayed breast reconstruction. The median time from mastectomy to delayed breast reconstruction was 34 months. The median duration of follow-up was 102 months.Results
There were no locoregional recurrences (LRR) in patients who underwent delayed reconstruction (0.0 %); 21 LRR developed in patients treated with mastectomy only (5.4 %), P = 0.011. Distant metastases occurred less frequently in the reconstruction group (12.5 %) than in the patients who underwent mastectomy alone (21.5 %); P = 0.0343. The 8-year breast cancer specific survival in the reconstruction group was 98.2 and 85.7 % for the mastectomy only group, P = 0.000.Conclusions
Delayed autologous breast reconstruction does not appear to adversely influence disease progression when compared to patients treated with mastectomy only. 相似文献12.

Objective
Spinal cord ischemia (SCI) is a devastating complication after branched or fenestrated endovascular aortic repair (B/FEVAR) for thoracoabdominal aortic disease. The purpose of this analysis was to describe the impact of a bundled clinical care protocol designed to reduce the risk of SCI in this population of patients.Methods
A bundled SCI prevention protocol including cerebrospinal fluid drainage, blood pressure parameters, transfusion goals, and pharmacologic adjuncts (steroids, naloxone) was initiated in May 2015. Before that date, portions of the protocol (cerebrospinal fluid drainage in particular) were used in an informal fashion in patients perceived to be at high risk. B/FEVAR cases completed from January 2012 to May 2016 were reviewed, and outcomes before (n = 223) and after (n = 70) SCI bundle application were compared. The primary end point was the incidence of SCI events. Secondary end points included length of stay, complications, and survival. High-risk patients for SCI were defined as those undergoing B/FEVAR resulting in aortic coverage equivalent to open Crawford extent I to III thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) repair. Survival was estimated using Kaplan-Meier life-table analysis.Results
Postprotocol patients were more likely to be older (75 ± 7 vs 72 ± 8 years; P = .03), to have an American Society of Anesthesiologists class 4 designation (94% vs 81%; P = .04), and to be treated for TAAA (67% vs 56%; P = .004). Postprotocol pre-emptive spinal drain use was greater in high-risk patients (100% vs 87%; P = .04) but significantly decreased in lower risk patients (suprarenal aneurysm or extent IV TAAA: 5% after protocol implementation vs 21% before protocol implementation; P = .04). Rates of any SCI before and after implementation of the bundled protocol were 13% (n = 29 of 223) and 3% (n = 2 of 70; P = .007), respectively. In comparing high-risk patients, protocol use resulted in an even more significant reduction in SCI rate (19% [28 of 144] vs 4% [2 of 50]; P = .004). Postoperative morbidity (41% vs 33%; P = .2) and 30-day mortality (5% vs 1%; P = .3) were not different between groups. However, patients treated on protocol had significantly improved 1-year survival (99% ± 1% after protocol implementation vs 90% ± 2% before protocol implementation; log-rank, P = .05).Conclusions
Implementation of a bundled multimodal protocol may significantly reduce risk of SCI after B/FEVAR, with the greatest risk reduction occurring in the most vulnerable patients. Interestingly, reduction in SCI risk was associated with improvement in 1-year survival. 相似文献13.

Background
We examined the effectiveness of right axillary arterial perfusion through an interposed Dacron graft in the prevention of cerebral embolism or complications related to ascending aortic cannulation in open proximal anastomosis technique of descending thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) or thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) repair under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest through left thoracotomy.Methods
Between May 2000 and August 2012, 44 patients underwent TAA or TAAA repair using open proximal technique under DHCA. These patients were divided into two groups for evaluation of the effectiveness of right axillary arterial perfusion. Group A included patients who underwent TAA or TAAA repair with ascending aortic cannulation (n = 15). Group B was composed of patients who had TAA or TAAA repair with right axillary arterial perfusion through the interposed Dacron graft (n = 29).Results
Mortality in this series was 4.5 % (2 of 44 patients; 1 in each group); wherein, the causes were sepsis due to graft infection and aortic dissection (Stanford type A). The incidence rates of cerebral embolism were 27 % (4 of 15 patients in group A) and 3.4 % (1 of 29 patients in group B) (p = 0.0392, Fisher’s exact test). The rates of complications in relation to the aortic cannulation site (dissection or bleeding) were 13 % (2 of 15 patients in group A) and 0 % (0 of 25 patients in group B).Conclusions
Right axillary perfusion facilitates easy evacuation of air and allows prompt recommencement of upper body circulation. Consequently, it minimizes the risk of cerebral embolism or complications in relation to aortic cannulation through left thoracotomy. 相似文献14.

We examined all patients with isolated AVR between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2009. The JACVSD data collection form has a total of 255 variables. We defined PPM as an effective orifice area index of ≤0.85 m2/cm2.Results
PPM was observed in 306 of 3,609 cases analyzed, PPM rate was 8.5 %. Body surface area was larger and body mass index was higher in the PPM group than the non-PPM group (P < 0.001). Patients with PPM were older (P = 0.001) and had a higher prevalence of diabetes (P = 0.004), dyslipidemia (P < 0.001), hypertension (P < 0.001), cerebrovascular disease (P = 0.031), old myocardial infarction (P = 0.006), previous percutaneous coronary artery intervention (P = 0.001), coronary artery disease (P = 0.018), and aortic valve stenosis (P < 0.001). Perioperative blood transfusion (P < 0.001) and dialysis (P = 0.005) were more frequent in the PPM group. Postoperative ventilation (P = 0.004) and intensive care unit stay (P = 0.004) were significantly longer in the PPM group.Conclusions
Age, aortic valve stenosis, dyslipidemia, hypertension, old myocardial infarction, previous percutaneous coronary artery intervention, diabetes mellitus, cerebrovascular disease, and high body mass index were the risk factors for PPM. PPM was not an independent risk factor for short-term mortality. 相似文献15.

Background
The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical, anatomic, and procedural characteristics of patients who developed retrograde type A dissection (RTAD) after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for type B aortic dissection (TBAD).Methods
Between January 2012 and January 2017, there were 186 patients who underwent TEVAR for TBAD at a multidisciplinary aortic center. Patients who developed RTAD after TEVAR (n = 15) were compared with those who did not (no-RTAD group, n = 171). Primary outcomes were survival and need for reintervention.Results
The incidence of RTAD in our sample was 8% (n = 15). Kaplan-Meier estimates found that no-RTAD patients had better survival (P = .04). Survival rates at 30 days, 1 year, and 3 years were 93%, 60%, and 60% for RTAD patients and 94%, 87%, and 80% for no-RTAD patients. One RTAD was diagnosed intraoperatively, 5 were diagnosed within 30 days of the index procedure, 6 were diagnosed within 1 year, and 3 were diagnosed after 1 year. Reintervention for RTAD was undertaken in 10 of 15 patients, with a 50% survival rate after reintervention. Partial or complete false lumen thrombosis was more frequently present in RTAD patients (P = .03). RTAD patients more frequently presented with renal ischemia (P = .04). Most RTAD patients (93%, RTAD patients; 64%, no-RTAD patients; P = .02) had a proximal landing zone in zone 0, 1, or 2. Aortic diameter was more frequently ≥40 mm in the RTAD group (47%, RTAD patients; 21%, no-RTAD patients; P = .05). Patients with RTAD had stent grafts placed in the renovisceral arteries for complicated dissections, and this approached significance (P = .05). Three RTAD patients had a type II arch (20%) compared with 53 no-RTAD patients (31%; P = .6), but a comparison of type II arch with type I or type III found no statistical significance (P = .6). No correlations were found between ratio of descending to ascending diameters, average aortic sizing, graft size, or bare-metal struts at proximal attachment zone and development of RTAD. We found no statistically significant differences in demographics, genetic disease, comorbidities, or previous repairs.Conclusions
The development of RTAD after TEVAR for TBAD does not appear to be correlated with any easily identifiable demographic feature but appears to be correlated with proximal landing zones in zone 1 and 2 and an ascending diameter >4 cm. Furthermore, the presence of partial or complete false lumen thrombosis as well as more complicated presentation with renal ischemia was significantly more frequent in patients with RTAD. TBAD patients should be observed long term, as type A dissections in our patients occurred even after 1 year. 相似文献16.

BackgroundAs many as 20% of patients who have undergone previous thoracic aortic repair will require reintervention, which could entail thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). A paucity of data is available on mortality and the incidence of spinal cord ischemia (SCI) and other postoperative complications associated with TEVAR after previous aortic repairs exclusive to the thoracic aorta. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of previous thoracic aortic repair on the 30-day mortality and SCI outcomes for patients after TEVAR.MethodsThe Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative database was queried for all cases of TEVAR from 2012 to 2018. Patients were excluded if they had undergone previous abdominal aortic repair, the TEVAR had extended beyond aortic zone 5, or SCI data were missing. The 3 cohorts compared were TEVAR with previous ascending aortic or aortic arch repair (group 1), TEVAR with previous descending thoracic aortic repair (group 2), and TEVAR without previous repair (group 3). The primary outcomes of interest were 30-day mortality and SCI. The secondary outcomes included stroke, myocardial infarction, cardiac complications, respiratory complications, postoperative length of stay, and reintervention. The patient variables were compared using χ2 tests, analysis of variance, or Kruskal-Wallis tests, as appropriate. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the predictors of 30-day mortality and SCI.ResultsA total of 4010 patients met the inclusion criteria, with 470 in group 1, 132 in group 2, and 3408 in group 3. The 30-day mortality was 4% (19 of 470) in group 1, 6% (8 of 132) in group 2, and 6% (213 of 3408) in group 3 (P = .17). The incidence of SCI was 3% (14 of 470) in group 1, 3% (4 of 132) in group 2, and 3.8% (128 of 3408) in group 3 (P = .65). Stroke, reintervention, myocardial infarction, and cardiac complications were not significantly different among the 3 groups. The incidence of respiratory complications was greatest for group 3 (11%; 360 of 3408) compared with groups 1 (9%; 44 of 470) and 2 (4%; 5 of 132; P = .034). Similarly, the postoperative length of stay was longest for group 3 (9.6 ± 19.4 days vs 8.2 ± 18.3 days for group 1 and 5.9 ± 8.6 days for group 2; P = .038). The independent predictors of 30-day mortality for all TEVAR patients included units of packed red blood cells transfused intraoperatively, urgent or emergent repairs, older age, increasing serum creatinine level, inability to perform self-care, total procedure time, occlusion of the left subclavian artery intraoperatively, distal endograft landing zone 5, and diabetes. The predictors of SCI included the total procedure time, urgent and emergent repairs, and increasing serum creatinine level.ConclusionsTEVAR after previous thoracic aortic repair was not associated with an increased risk of SCI or 30-day mortality compared with TEVAR without previous aortic repair. 相似文献

Objective
The purpose of this study was to determine how the timing of thyroidectomy influenced postoperative weight change.Methods
We conducted a two-institution study, identifying patients treated with total thyroidectomy for hyperthyroidism. Patients were classified as ‘early’ if they were referred for surgery as the first treatment option, or ‘delayed’ if they were previously treated with radioactive iodine (RAI). Groups were compared with the Student’s t-test or χ 2 test where appropriate.Results
There were 204 patients undergoing thyroidectomy for hyperthyroidism. Of these, 171 patients were classified as early and 33 were classified as delayed. Overall, patients gained 6.0 % ±0.8 of their preoperative body weight at last follow-up. Preoperative body mass indexes (BMIs) were similar between groups (p = 0.98), and the median follow-up time was 388 days (range 15–1,584 days). Both groups gained weight until they achieved a normal thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) postoperatively. After achieving a normal TSH, the early group stabilized or lost weight (?0.2 lbs/day), while the delayed group continued to gain weight (0.02 lbs/day; p = 0.61). At last follow-up, there were significantly more patients in the delayed group who increased their BMI category compared with the early group (42.4 vs. 21.6 %; p = 0.01). Twice as many patients in the delayed group moved up or into an unhealthy BMI category (overweight or obese) compared with the early group (39.4 vs. 19.3 %; p = 0.01).Conclusions
Compared with patients initially treated with RAI, patients with hyperthyroidism who underwent surgery as the first treatment were less likely to become overweight or obese postoperatively. 相似文献18.

Purpose
In the acute phase of spinal cord injury (SCI), ischemia and parenchymal hemorrhage are believed to worsen the primary lesions induced by mechanical trauma. To minimize ischemia, keeping the mean arterial blood pressure above 85 mmHg for at least 1 week is recommended, and norepinephrine is frequently administered to achieve this goal. However, no experimental study has assessed the effect of norepinephrine on spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) and parenchymal hemorrhage size. We have assessed the effect of norepinephrine on SCBF and parenchymal hemorrhage size within the first hour after experimental SCI.Methods
A total of 38 animals were included in four groups according to whether SCI was induced and norepinephrine injected. SCI was induced at level Th10 by dropping a 10-g weight from a height of 10 cm. Each experiment lasted 60 min. Norepinephrine was started 15 min after the trauma. SCBF was measured in the ischemic penumbra zone surrounding the trauma epicenter using contrast-enhanced ultrasonography. Hemorrhage size was measured repeatedly on parasagittal B-mode ultrasonography slices.Results
SCI was associated with significant decreases in SCBF (P = 0.0002). Norepinephrine infusion did not significantly modify SCBF. Parenchymal hemorrhage size was significantly greater in the animals given norepinephrine (P = 0.0002).Conclusion
In the rat, after a severe SCI at the Th10 level, injection of norepinephrine 15 min after SCI does not modify SCBF and increases the size of the parenchymal hemorrhage. 相似文献20.
