Serum Myoglobin Is Associated With Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury in Stanford Type A Aortic Dissection.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The correlation between rhabdomyolysis and postoperative acute kidney injury has been reported in several surgical procedures. As a good predictor of rhabdomyolysis-related acute kidney injury, an elevated serum myoglobin level was often observed after total aortic arch replacement combined with frozen elephant trunk implantation. However, the correlation between serum myoglobin and acute kidney injury in such patients had not been established.

Methods

Totally 398 stanford type A aortic dissection patients who underwent total aortic arch replacement combined with frozen elephant trunk implantation were enrolled in this retrospective study. The correlations between serum myoglobin and acute kidney injury as well as the 30-day mortality were assessed.
