Searching Optimal Tailored Strategy for Repair of Acute Type A Acute Aortic Dissection
Acute type A aortic dissection (TAAD) persists as a clinicopathologic entity with high lethality in the current era. Several procedures are presently used to repair the TAAAD. The objective of this study is to analyze two groups of individuals using a conservative approach through root-sparing and hemiarch techniques in patients who are hospitalized in higher-risk clinical conditions or more aggressive procedures such as root replacement and total arch replacement in low-risk patients.
The target population enrolled in the registry includes patients with TAAAD.The high volume of patients that will be enrolled in this registry will receive proximal and distal aortic repair in elective, urgent or emergency clinical condition. Efforts of investigators will be concentrated in TAAAD repair using a conservative approach of root preservation and hemiarch reconstruction in the majority of patients who will be referred in critical clinical condition. High-risk patients with older age or more comorbidities had more conservative repairs to limit surgical insult to these complicated patients. Total arch reconstruction and root replacement will be optional procedures for specific subgroups of patients who may benefit from a more complex index finger operation without incurring additional immediate risk.
Investigators hope to demonstrate a reduction in operative mortality and an improvement in early and late outcomes. The experience of investigators will be summarized in an algorithm for TAAAD repair with an analysis of early morbidity and mortality, as well as late survival and no reoperation.
