Abstract

Aim. The aim of this study is to show the outcomes of an open intervention on the ascending aorta and arch combined with stenting of aorta in type I aortic dissection.
Methods. 6 patients with type I aortic dissection underwent implantation of Djumbodis® Dissection System bare stents at I.M. Sechenov First Moscow Medical University’s Aortic and Cardiovascular Surgery Clinic. In 4 patients, aortic stenting was combined with ascending aorta replacement, in 1 patient, hemiarch ascending aorta and arch replacement was performed and in 1 patient aorta and arch replacement was complemented with a Sun procedure.
Results. Total operation time, cardiopulmonary bypass time, cross clamp time and hypothermic circulatory arrest time were just similar to those performed in conventional open surgery. There were no intraoperative deaths in this series. 30-day mortality was 16.7 % (1 patient). The patient died because of progressive respiratory and cardiovascular failure, encephalopathy, and gastrointestinal bleeding. 1 patient had acute renal failure and left leg ischemia because of the false lumen thrombosis, 1 patient suffered from cardiac tamponade and 1 patient underwent prolonged mechanical ventilation. Total false lumen thrombosis developed in 1 patient, 4 patients had partial false lumen thrombosis, and in 1 patient the false lumen remained patent.
Conclusion. Stenting of aortic arch and descending aorta is a good alternative to aortic arch replacement in type I aortic dissection. It promotes stabilization of false and true lumen diameters and global aortic diameter.
