Application of prosthesis eversion method for ascending aorta replacement guarantees better clinical outcomes of type A acute aortic dissection surgery.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The advantages of prosthesis eversion method in patients diagnosed with Stanford type A acute aortic dissection (AAD) undergoing ascending aorta replacement (AAR) is unknown. This research is designed to explore it.

Methods

We retrospectively analyzed the data of a total of 283 patients diagnosed with type A aortic dissection that underwent surgery in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from March, 2006 to April, 2020. Eighty-eight patients underwent surgical repair with traditional continuous suture technique, and 195 patients received prosthesis eversion. Baseline data, intra-operative data and early-stage clinical results were collected and statistically analyzed.

Results

Baseline data were similar except for age, incidence of hyperlipidemia and taking A
